    considering the price differential it seems to hold up quite well in picture quality and conditions. The audio on the other hand might be good for an emergancy situation and thats about it. Have to say looks like a good entry price point set up though. If I won one it would certainly go on my screen lets put it that way.

The microphone quality isn’t great, but at least I’ll get away with all the swearing 🤣. Great video

    So glad i chose to see your review , very clear and concise and set my mind at rest as I've had this installed on my parents new motability car, although they charged them £350, so ill be questioning that, especially as your review was a year ago. But, i may now get this one for my own car now. One question though, does it need to be plugged into the cigarette lighter all the time or has it a battery reserve ? Had the manufacturer fit it to do away with the extra wires. Thanks

    I can only compare it to what I use daily and see how it holds up TBH, and I speak as I find! 🤷‍♂️ I don't do paid reviews ..... EVER, the manufacturer doesn't get to see the review until it's published publicly, and I tend to give the products away anyway. Whilst the resolution and contrast range aren't as good as the Nextbase 522, and the mic is obviously somewhat lacking ..... let's not forget it is 1/3 of the price!

    Virtually all dash cams support 64gb cards, many support 128gb one and the odd one or two support 256gb cards. I’d be surprised if any support a 1Tb card!!! Bear in mind if you replace the card you’ll want a fast one too, so 90Mb/s or higher. If you can’t manage to fit one yourself, you could always try Halfords, but TBH they only take 1/2hr - 1hr to put in even if you’re hiding the cables behind the trim etc

If you drive 4hrs today, 4hrs tomorrow and 4hrs the day after, it will probably all be on the card anyway without any issues at all. If you want a guarantee, buy the Nextbase 622 make sure you update the firmware to the latest version and then use a 256Mb micro SD card, and you get to save 24hrs AT 4K RESOLUTION!!!!!!!

    @@GadgetMeisterUK That’s good to know. I barely drive 40 mins a day, so that’s a plus. To be honest I’m after one that helps me with night surveillance (friendly people keying cars), so in reality it won’t be filming all the time and turns on only when it detects motion in its perimeter, right? If yes, am I correct in thinking that if it’s used only during the night (6pm till 6am, car switched off), total footage takes less storage space since it is not continuously filming? Ps. Pretty positive you own the Nextbase 622. Excellent quality. Didn’t want to go that price range though :(
