Review: great purchase! - I did A LOT of research on dashcams before choosing one. Even this one had some bad reviews but given the 70%+ 5 stars, I decided to go for it. Overall it's great. Its better than my previous full HD and 2K should be the minimum these days. So far I've only driven in bright sunshine so can't comment on night or rain picture quality. I just reviewed the videos on my PC and you have to be quite close to the car in front to make out the reg plate - stopping distance close. The picture is good enough for accidents but it won't pick up say facial features unless they're very close. If the 622 was more affordable I would have got this for the 4K. Image was stable and not jerky/ washed out/ reflective etc. It stores files in 1min files but it is all continuous. The 1min files are easier to email/ save etc rather than downloading a whole hour of video to find one moment for example. Set up was easy - my USB port is below my radio so I just plug that in and don't bother with hardwire or hiding the cables. I bought a 128GB Scandisk U3 card because it was so much cheaper than the Nextbase one. Formatted it straight away after reading all the reviews - works perfectly. Downloaded the android app to set it up which I did in the house and this was easy. When I'm parked up somewhere and want to use the app, it does struggle to connect over WiFi. Sometimes it looks like it hasn't connected but when you press 'back' you're suddenly connected. Its fine because I plug the camera into my PC (downloaded the Nextbase Player for PC) and it works great - really great. Has speed info and a little map that shows you where you were. Would definitely recommend but if you have the funds, get the 4K.
Review: Very good quality camera with some nice features - My old camera packed up after 6 years ( not nextbase) so this time I decided to go for front and back cameras. Nextbase seems to be regarded as the market leader so I went for this. Once installed it’s very easy to set up and I’ve had it about 5 weeks and I’m very pleased with it. The picture quality is very good both night and day and it’s so far performed perfectly. What’s really nice feature is when it saves footage from front and back it names the files in a format that the free PC software recognises as linked and you view front and back footage playing simultaneously in split screen. The only difficulty I had was mounting. The front camera is kind of offset due to its shape and in my car the mirror assembly is really bulky so the camera ends up a fair bit off centre in the windscreen when mounted on the passenger side of the mirror. I deliberated for ages but that was the best spot I could find. The rear camera is easy to mount but difficult to tidy the cable in a hatchback and as it’s on a magnetic ball mount if you are not careful dangling cable will move the camera when you open and close the boot. I have a Range Rover. All in all very good though and I would recommend

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it have internal memory?**
A: No....you must make sure the SD card is a U3.... It won't record if you have it with rear cam unless its U3 and above 64gb

**Q: Do you need a smart phone for this to operate, as i haven't got one and don't want one**
A: No you do not NEED a smartphone, but...

You can install and fully set the camera up using just the touch screen on the back of it. It will turn on and off with the car power (e.g. 12v socket) and record as you drive. If you have an accident you can press the save button below the screen (or if the built in impact sensor detects it) it will protect the relevant video file a few 10’s of seconds either side of the incident - all good with no smartphone needed... however,

I had an accident a few months back (someone ran into the back of me on the M25) and the shock of it made me forget to push the “save” button on the dash am. We pulled over exchanged details on the hard shoulder, but as my family and I were going on holiday I needed to save the video file of the accident before it was overwritten (after about 4 hours of driving). At that time I had no smartphone, tablet or PC with me, so I went to a supermarket and bought another SD card which I swapped into the dash cam so I could save the card with the accident video on it until I returned home and recover the file for my insurers - the other driver later tried to claim I’d rolled/reversed back into them, so really glad I had the video!

You don’t NEED a smartphone (or tablet, or PC) to use this camera, but if you have one it would make life so much easier if you need to download any footage after an accident. If you really don’t want a smartphone I’d keep a spare SD card in the car so if (like me) you forget to press the save button you can ensure the file is not overwritten/erased before you can offload it from the dash cam at a later date.

**Q: Are the rear view cameras sutible for a transit van? As it would need mounting on the outside?**
A: No.  The rear view camera, like the main unit, is designed as an internal camera unit to be protected from the outside elements.  The rear view camera is therefore designed to be stuck on the inside of a rear windscreen facing out through the glass.  Most definitely not to be mounted on the outside of a vehicle.  I hope this helps.

**Q: Is a hardwire kit included?**
A: No not in the kit I bought, came with front and rear cam, Nextbase hardwire kit £20 but worth it. Saying that I had to go buy a mini fuse to fit my car, only an extra £1, guess all makes of car are different. Easy to fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great in use, but erratic
*by R***N on 30 October 2024*

I spent nearly a week with Nextbase customer support (who were brilliant and very patient) but could not get this to work properly. Connection with the GPS module in the mount was intermittent, so sometimes you had speed and lat/long data on the recording, and sometimes it wasn’t there. Sometimes the screen saver works, sometimes not. Sometimes it freezes and can’t be turned off (reset button in frequent use). Sometimes it records the rear camera, sometimes it pretends it isn’t there. We tried an new Nextbase-branded SD card (quite expensive) and even moving the camera to the corner of the screen away from the rain sensor, but next day it was back to its old tricks. It’s a shame, because when it’s working it’s a great bit of kit, but I ended up sending it back. As an accident can happen *at any time*, your dashcam needs to be working *all the time*. If it doesn’t, it’s no use really. To be fair, Amazon refunded without question.
