Good camera, but could've been greatReviewed in the United States on November 18, 2019
I bought this camera specifically because it had a dual camera. The biggest reasons why this isn't a great camera is because of the choice of mounting hole they used. I didn't use the mount it came with because I can't stand anything to do with suction cups -- they never stay on like they're supposed to. I have a universal mount that connects to my rear view mirror, and it DOES have the piece to go along with the camera, but considering it's a slide mount (I don't know what you really call it), it has a tendency to slip out. My wife's Rexing uses the ball mount -- with that, worst case scenario, you've gotta readjust your camera from time to time, but at least the camera is secure to not fall while you're driving. The first time my camera fell absolutely freaked me out, and then I was worried that I broke it. If I get into a collision, it probably will fall off again and prevent potentially crucial information unless I glue it to the mount. However, if I do that, I won't be able to easily take the camera out of the car -- I'll have to take out the mount which was frustrating to install in the first place. It would've been all right if there was a way to lock the mount with the camera to prevent it from falling off during normal driving, but based on what I've tried, there wasn't.The second biggest issue I have is that it'll restart itself at random times. This might be a result from it falling on three occasions, but it bothers me because obviously when the camera is restarting, it doesn't record. Though the chances may be unlikely, those seconds could be the difference between being a "not at fault" accident to an "at fault accident."Because it's a 200 dollar camera and I'm afraid it's not always going to do the job it's supposed to do, I'm disappointed. I should've stuck with the 99 dollar Rexing I had -- it wasn't a dual camera, but at least it always worked, and it was always secure.This is really unfortunate because it's a great camera, but I had to give it 3 stars because of (in my opinion) their poor choice of a mounting piece, and the technical difficulties. And yes, I use the correct memory card for it, as well.
