Excellent dashcam and speedy delivery.Easy to set up and works fine

Ok, so let's start with the good things, when you can see it the picture quality is ok and to be fair the camera is pretty cheap considering that. This is my fourth Nextbase dash cam and the other three were simple to install, stick in a memory card, attach to windscreen, route cable and plug in and finally check picture from back screen. Unfortunately with this camera things are far from simple. I refused to stick it to the screen as suggested in the set up video until I had paired it to the Nextbase app. After nearly an hour and four attempts (250 mb/s wifi) I finally managed to download the recommended firmware update which after two attempts installed. I've had this thing about a week, the app randomly refuses to connect to the camera (IOS 18.5) when it does sometimes it will not show images in the library just an eternal downloading screen that never ends, sometimes it will say that the camera is not connected even though the home screen says it is. A reboot of my phone left the app with just a Grey screen which needed a further reboot to fix although it isn't fixed. Not a problem I thought, the camera just slides off its mount and I can view the files in the old fashioned way. There is no way this camera will slide off its mount on my windscreen probably without the use of a hammer and chisel which I may yet resort to so I can send it back for a refund. Come on Nextbase, I think you have seriously let yourselves down here. Update the app worked again briefly and I was about to change my review but sadly again today it reverted to the same issue of never ending syncing so still utterly useless in my opinion.

It actually speaks telling you to fit a next base SD card. Guess what they are 6 times the price a a Sandisk. Wasted a lot of time with this rubbish. Trading on there prior reputation. Avoid it!

The camera itself is small and discreet unfortunately it will not pair so had to return in terms of the seller the process and delivery was swift and I have no complaints and would recommend

Great for price

Great dashcam better than my old one

I bought this camera because it was small enough to put up behind my rear view mirror, it mainly hides up there but you can still see the bottom part, I didn't want or need one with a screen. This wouldn't be a problem if the LED wasn't so bright, constantly flashing red or blue, it is very distracting when driving at night, you can't turn it off. I have resorted to putting a piece of tape over it. Also the app is pretty poor, it is slow, disconnects from the camera whist using it and it only displays the last couple of hours of footage, my drive to work is about 3 and a half hours, so if I have an incident during the first half, I can't view it via my phone. It does record my whole journey, but to see it all I have to remove the micro SD card (caution this is sprung loaded and will rocket out) for use on a computer. On the positive side, the picture quality is good, and now I know its teething troubles it is all fine. Get a good quality micro SD designed for dash cams and a fitting wiring kit
