Serious flawReviewed in the United States on March 5, 2021
I've owned this camera for one year. For the most part it works well, but there is one SERIOUS FLAW: when the camera is left unused for multiple weeks (eg. car parked for a long vacation, as it happened to me), the internal battery gets completely discharged and it loses the current time & date. So next time the car is started the camera thinks it's January 1st, 2018 and this COMPLETELY MESS UP THE VIDEO FILE ROTATION. Indeed, the camera will keep the old video files dated 2019, 2020, 2021, and every time the car is started the camera will delete the latest videos dated January 2018.When I noticed this problem, a month after I came back from vacation, a month after the camera lost its date & time, I had essentially lost a month of recordings.The manufacturer could EASILY remediate this bug. When the camera starts it could see there are files dated 2021, so if the current time is set to 2018, it should change its clock to at least 2021.
