The Black Friday sales are well underway and if you’re a driver there’s one thing that should be on your radar – dash cams. There’s a great deal on this dash cam (with 32GB memory card included) that will save you over 30%
These dinky devices can capture everything that happens when driving – or when parked – and upgrade your drive. They will not only capture funny things you want to share, but with an increase in crash for cash incidents, could provide the evidence that you weren’t at fault.
The Miofive dash cam has a 4K camera built-in, which will capture everything on the road ahead of you, storing it on the included memory card. There’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth built-in so you can connect to the camera and download or view the videos, while the 3-inch screen on the rear shows real-time footage as you drive.
The dash cam also captures GPS information, so you can trace the route on Google Maps in the app, while there’s an update that lets the dash cam warn you to speed cameras too.
That will mean that if you’re driving and something happens, you have plenty of information and the video footage right there with you to use as evidence or to provide to insurers if there’s a dispute.
Enhancing the features, the Miofive also offers parking modes, capturing 60 seconds of footage if it detects motion in the event of a collision. It can also capture 1 frame a second for 24 hours to provide longer monitoring.
The camera comes with a mount so you can stick it to your windshield, with the cable to power it from your 12V socket. You can also buy an additional polarising filter that screws onto the lens to reduce reflections if you need to.
With a handful of five-star reviews shoppers have been quick to share their experience of using it too. As one recent Amazon shopper said: “It comes with everything you need to get started including an adjustable mount, power cable, charging cable, a plastic tool to help with positioning the cable, a manual and a spare adhesive pad.
“Mounting the camera took a little bit of fiddling about to get it positioned correctly. Hiding the power cable that connects to the cigarette lighter socket was easy using the provided tool, the power cable was easily long enough for my ford focus and it reached the socket with cable to spare.”
While another person said: “The video quality is incredibly clear, capturing every detail on the road. The 3-inch IPS screen is bright and easy to navigate, making it simple to adjust settings or review footage.” As many positive reviews there were some which highlighted some negatives with the model, and this could depend on something as simple as the dashboard set up or cable.
“This dashcam and App work generally ok but I am having issues with the usb C power connector with the supplied cable”, said one shopper. Alternatively, shoppers could also find similar models in the Very Black Friday sale and Argos.
Black Friday is well underway and there’s no shortage of deals on tech, air fryers, Fire TV and a whole lot more.
