If you have a car, a dash cam is one of the first accessories you should have for security purposes and documentation of road incidents. The good thing about dash cams nowadays is that there’s plenty to choose from, depending on your budget. And if you’re asking which one to consider, you might want to take a look at 70mai Dash Cam A400.
The A400 is just one of the products that 70mai has in their lineup, and this is the most affordable of their latest offerings. It comes in three colors: White, Red, and Black. It features a 3-inch color screen, 1440p Quad HD resolution, dual-channel recording with the RC09 rear camera and FC02 interior camera (sold separately), a wide 145-degree Field of View, App Control via the 70mai app, and 24-hour smart parking surveillance, which allows it to automatically record when the built-in G sensor detects sudden shakes or collisions while the car is off.
Set up and installation is simple. You might need to get some help with the wires, though, if you’re also installing a rear camera. The package comes with the dash cam, cable, car plug adapter, and thermal-resistant film. All you need to do is install the film on your windshield (it’s like a screen protector, so make sure it doesn’t have any bubbles), install the microSD card to the A400 (can support up to 128GB, sold separately), stick the A400 to the film using its built-in adhesive, then plug it to the car’s outlet. You can watch the video above to see how we installed it.
Once it’s on, it will start recording. From there, you can now tweak the settings, including video resolution and recording intervals. You can also view the recordings wirelessly through the 70mai app. To do this, you have to install the app on your phone (iOS, Android supported), activate the Wi-Fi hotspot on the A400 and, connect the phone to it, then continue navigating through the app. You can now view the recording in real time or download the footage that you need.
Overall, we like our experience with the A400. It’s made of plastic but of high quality, the lens angle can be adjusted, and the video recording quality is also good with a wide dynamic range during the day, and it’s bright at night. It looks small in the pictures, but it’s quite big, so make sure to place it above your peripheral so it doesn’t distract you.
The 70mai Dash Cam A400 has an SRP of PHP 4,999, which is not bad for the quality and features you’re getting. You can even get for just PHP 2,999 during this week’s sale, so now is a good time to get one. You can buy it through Shopee here — https://shope.ee/4VBBQ6wFcF
