Miofive Car Camera 4K Resolution WiFi Bluetooth GPS Dash Cam 3-Inch IPS Screen Night Vision Loop Recording HDR

Love this camera - came in super handy during a recent collision. However, it keeps speaking. I’m sure there’s a way to turn it off, but sometimes I don’t want to be told to move just because the car ahead of me is 🤣 Overall still very functional and great for the price, and does very well in the dark as well! Video quality is enough for insurance with a video taken at night - that’s all we need! Read more

Great camera, good quality. Easy set up. I like the hotspot QR code to download videos. Sensitive to bumps to get emergency footage, detects when cars are moving and tells you to move. Goes into parking lot mode when you park. Cons: Can’t really see license plates if they’re about 20 feet away. Camera doesn’t turn on automatically consistently. Sometimes it will start with car start, other times I have to manually turn it on, after realizing it wasn’t on when driving for a bit. Read more

Clear simple instructions made it easy to install on my windshield. I ran the power cord along the headliner and under the dash to reach the power outlet in the console. With that power source, the camera automatically starts up when I start the car and immediately starts recording. If something happens in front of me I can tap an icon on the display to immediately save that clip for storage. (The camera will do this automatically if I hit the brakes and the camera senses that jerk.) Otherwise, it records over itself after the SD card is full. I like that the display goes to sleep quickly but continues recording. I'm glad not to have the distraction of the display in my eyeliner as I drive. Read more

I’m posting this to help other buyers be aware of issues before purchasing… The S1 probably is as good as some reviewers say, BUT Because of the problems I encountered I can’t use this dash-cam, so I can’t comment on how well it performs. I would have returned it but illness prevented me from trying to install it within the time frame to return it expired. I hope MioFive will consider replacing my device. I purchased the MioFive S1 in June from Amazon. I believe that I was sent a defective device (there were missing parts AND it seems like someone had trouble programing it, so returned it). The manual’s directions aren’t easy to follow, they do not clearly correspond to the dash-cam’s buttons and digital controls. Some features seem to have been previously set and are no longer accessible to be changed: • the date is incorrect •the screen image is upside down therefore the buttons no longer correspond to the screen controls (left, right, back, select). •the device’s built-in menus are frozen •because the screen is frozen, the “format” function is inaccessible •the directions say to format the Micro-SD card before using, but the cam immediately starts to record when turned on, •there’s no way to stop the incessant voice announcements. •Reset and restart/reboot do not work. •All of the above suggests that the S1 had been used and returned before I received it. •Other issues include: •The FIRST instruction in the manual says: “1 To Install the electrostatic sticker… Park your car in a safe area, and turn off the car engine. Take out the electrostatic sticker from the packing box and install it in the recommended area on the windshield, as shown in the figure below. Please clean the windshield and remove the air bubbles between the electrostatic sticker and the windshield during the installation.” Later it says: “Note: Please DO NOT attach the dash cam with the sticker to the windshield before the camera CALIBRATION to ensure the AI feature works properly.” •A lot of new vehicles no longer have cigarette lighter outlets (CLO) and have only a few USB-A or -C ports which are often used for charging or Apple / Android Play or other devices. • for some large vehicles, such as full-size trucks and buses, the cable provided is not long enough to connect the cam to a power source and be concealed. You can only get 11.5 ft of cable, but it comes as part of their Hardwire Kit ($29). MioFive does not provide anything longer and I haven’t found any other long cables that will work. •Correct me if I’m wrong – I don’t see how MioFive can claim AI capability, which is an intense computing process. There are a few useful features which they call AI, but it seems it’s just special software. •The Hardwire Kit (extra) comes with a number of parts, including fuses and special wires with fittings (TAPS) which are supposed to plug into fuse slots. WHAT IS NOT MENTIONED IS THAT THEY ARE INCOMPATIBLE with at least some 2024 GM full-size trucks (and probably others). GM now mostly uses triple blade fuses and fuse slots. A few fuses are mini or micro with two blades. The fuses and taps provided by MioFive are standard two-bladed types. Not good. The fuse boxes/panels in my truck are small and pretty crowded so you can’t easily get at the slots. •Also included is a tool they call a CROW BAR!!!!! It is actually a small piece of plastic you can use if you want to conceal the cables. Read more

Great video quality. It has a bunch of features that I have not used yet but I am pleasantly surprised by how good the video quality is. I may buy some more of these for other uses outside of the car. It seems that if you hook it to a USB power supply it will just keep running in a loop forever so that’s handy Read more

Worked fine for about a week. After that it doesnt power on. I even tried it on other power sources that I know were working. Read more

Buggy app thats slow and complicated, but the camera records clear sharp videos, day and night. Read more
