This dashcam package has exceeded my expectations in every way. From the unboxing to the final setup, the experience was seamless. Installation was quick and straightforward—even with both the front and rear cameras, the included instructions made everything easy to follow. The compact design also means it doesn't obstruct your view while driving, which is a big plus. The AI features are surprisingly useful and add an extra layer of peace of mind. Things like lane departure warnings and collision alerts are subtle but effective, making me feel more aware and safer on the road. It’s like having a co-pilot that’s always looking out for you. The video quality is excellent, both during the day and at night. Footage is crisp and clear, with wide-angle coverage that captures everything you’d want in the event of an incident. I also upgraded to a 512GB SD card (purchased separately), and the dashcam handled it with no issues at all—great for longer trips or extended loop recording. Overall, this is a well-rounded, high-quality dashcam system that offers great value. It gives me confidence every time I get behind the wheel, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their driving safety and security. Read more
Very good kit included front and rear cameras that link to your phone for external control. Kit included instructions and tools for interior hookup, and optional instructions to install to permanent power source for 24/7 monitor ability. I was really impressed with how easy it went into our 2023 Subaru Crosstrek and you can mount it so it doesn't obstruct driver view. Clarity and ease of use are very impressive. Included is on 64gb micro SD card, and you can save videos to your phone also! Read more
I bought this to add to my new Silverado. This camera works great, and the app/system works great as well. In the package is all you need to set this up - SD card, front/rear cameras, power cord, long cord for rear camera, plastic tucking tools, and mounting stickers. Installing is straight forward, mount the devices where you like and run the cords. It works best if you can tuck the cords into the ceiling and into the door trip/weather stripping. Camera itself walks you through the setup after downloading the app and updating firmware. Alignment to the road and front of vehicle. One key note, if you have wireless car play or android auto, you will want to turn off your connection to your phone or you'll have a hard time maintaining connectivity to the dash cam. The camera has many settings you can toggle: - Lane Departure - Screen Saver - Pedestrian warning - Car in front moving - Sensitivity for events (meaning, if your vehicle hits something or gets hit, it will create a mini recording) You can take the SD card out of the camera and load on a PC, or you can connect with your phone and download clips. The camera is always recording, but cuts clips to manageable segments for ease of downloading, which is a great feature. Luckily I have not had any issues which caused me to pull a video, but so far I'm very happy with this purchase. Read more
The Botslab G980H is a budget-friendly, dual-channel, 4K, nicely featured dashcam with parking mode (hardwire kit not included, B0DT1633D2). As of the time of writing this review, the G980H is selling for $129.99 minus a $30 instant savings coupon! The unit was received in a well-constructed packaging containing the front and rear 4 K and 2 K cameras, a 12V accessory outlet power cord, a rear camera cable, cling stickers for mounting the camera to the windshield, and an upholstery tool for routing the cables into the ceiling liner. I would highly recommend the additional purchase of the hardwire kit (https://www.amazon.com/Hardwire-Type-Exclusive-BOTSLAB-G980H/dp/B0DT1633D2), as parking mode will not function without it. I found both cameras to be of good quality, and the hardware provided was also made of high-quality materials. If you will be installing the cameras using the hardwire kit, you will also want to purchase a set of fuse taps appropriate for your type of fuse. I used these (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07T8LRSH7?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1) in my 10th-generation Honda Accord. Check your vehicle's fuse box before ordering to be sure you order the right style of tap! The installation took about 3 hours to complete and was easy to do. The hardest part is identifying the correct fuse locations to tap for VCC (constant 12V) and ACC (only powered when the car is on). Once the appropriate fuses were located, I was able to complete the installation and set up the Botslab G980H using the Botslab app downloaded to my phone from the Google Play Store. If there is one negative to the G980H, it's the lack of an easily located, comprehensive manual. Most of the features are intuitive and easy to understand without the need for a manual. However, there is one feature pointed out in the advertisement for the G980H that I couldn't find any documentation for, "Hands-free control". Using the app, however, I reached out to Botslab via built-in chat support (shout out to Yana!) and was provided with the missing information! Chat support was great, and Yana got me going right away. I've attached an image Yana provided me, which will provide anyone reading this review a list of the available voice commands for the G980H. I'm not sure this is a complete list of all available voice commands, as those listed on the right don't include all of the commands being used in the picture, but it's a good start! My vehicle already has a suite of safety features which mirror those of the ADAS system employed in the G980H, so I have them disabled, however, I did perform the ADAS calibration in setup and found it to be easy to use. The Botslab G980H is a great value for the money. I am very happy with my purchase and hope this review will help others considering buying this dashcam. I give the Bitslab G980H 4 stars out of 5 only for the lack of an easily located, fully comprehensive manual. Read more
