70mai - A510

That's a very good price for the stuff that you get. I have the same one but I got it for around 14-15k. Works very well!

This is the best one. Although it has lithium ion battery. But many are using it with no issues.

Qubo has super capacitor. Lithium ion tends to get hotter. But 70 Mai 510 many are using in India. So no issues with that.

It’s likely that the dashcam provided by Hyundai does not have Sony starvis 2 sensor. 70mai A510, A810 etc all have it. It makes a huge difference in clarity, especially at night time. I’d get it from outside.  Passenger electric seats and driver memory are very nice, though. Wireless CarPlay is through an adapter, so one of your usb ports will be blocked. 

Budget? Cameras in general aren’t cheap and you get what you pay for. If you want the current state of art in image quality on both front and back, redtiger f77 comes with IMX678 sensors on both cameras. This is the cheapest I’ve found with dual 4k starvis2 sensors. ₹26k. You can obviously go down from there. From dual channel to single channel, from 4k to 2k and 1080p, from IMX678 to lower tiers of starvis2 sensors. FWIW, 70mai A510 is the most popular dashcam by some margin. Should cost less than ₹15k for dual channel and less than ₹10k for front only. Has a 3k IMX675 on front which is very good for night recording. Unless you’re pinching pennies, I’d steer clear of systems which don’t have at least one Starvis 2 sensor.

Yeah so get a [70Mai A510 dual channel](https://www.amazon.in/70mai-Recorder-MaiColor-Playback-Monitoring/dp/B0CVH2K929?crid=1133VJQFKRF1I&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1fnV-uSDjqXMfhZ2zUwauiiwuQ9rb4ofa3fGGvLyrcx-SiarifFVVgWkvWNocMoUIQRirO2kOqMOGps7uCwslaoLAJOmPVDwFJ7nzyZf_Q3rdf86BqIe-Pp6ZrxSMl8mqYPFw-jmiX9bZR-lYM_tF0O8vDNW_G-7rT9gHk2yWRYaMX73t9a4d-fsIuFsZQPM0qIQtb7Zuurib5b3QajWLcPJoMslihjJZsIgBdfWMbk.9ItgfeuP_x8beBOfOPKUZnd2ps-QSIy8JITeRMaN5MM&dib_tag=se&keywords=70mai&nsdOptOutParam=true&qid=1745219218&sprefix=70mai%2Caps%2C262&sr=8-3&th=1). It fits all your requirements. It's 13,999 at amazon today. Or this one from [Qubo](https://www.amazon.in/Qubo-STARVIS-Channel-Display-Supports/dp/B0F2237M2D?crid=37O96VJPL1FL3&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.UpmEsijHDw1Np1wq8K1IZEAhVXr-KSVXV2kzeuBAz6f1x6-avvzb0P5ZZf8kkFO1enyoXnjmSBbeePVuo1bv3-lM5LjCp3rZgnWMe40ka9w66iSnImGVwLCgeA-wHPw0iiw1ILeVAHA9fQIC-gVNM-uVJR8bjIDNk0yCU7gpmP0DfrJUvgXrV2JpiNLnJZOkqxALkxxin_VBUzZYLKzqeop2DK6xjW7oX97OQH4vq1w.vURXKZCYou6XTfnqcspQwsCESQ-zNX-gfTfZ_UDFGqY&dib_tag=se&keywords=qubo%2Bdashcam&qid=1745219154&sprefix=qubo%2Bda%2Caps%2C261&sr=8-4&th=1) Both have a starvis2 sensor at front and is dual channel. Can take a 256Gb of memory card, too. > Any idea on what things to look out for if I’m getting it installed from outside if SC guys don’t install the one which I purchased from open market Nothing to look out for, really. It's a simple job. They'll tuck most of the wires in between interior panels and door seal biddings. Just make sure it looks clean. I see only 1 inch of wire each attached to camera and a further couple of inches in the power outlet. Everything else is tucked in neatly. If your car is in warranty (and maybe even if not), I'd recommend against going for hardwire option. While it has some advantages (like parking surveillance), most installers will cut some wire to attach it instead of installing it properly in a fuse box.

Congratulations!! For your question: It depends. If you're okay with a "plug into USB" to use one , get the 70mai 510 or above. (Dual channel). Ask the SC if they can install it in hardwired mode. If you want a hardwired one for parking mode, Hyundai has their in-house offering : Hyundai Mobis MH7 dashcam. It gets the job done , but is expensive for what it offers.

If you want to use dashcam for parking monitoring also i.e. it will need hardwiring better go for official dashcam to avoid issue with warranty. If that's not the case you can go for any dashcam. Just use the 12V port or USB port to power it like any other accessory. I use 70mai a510 which is good.

70Mai A510S Front and Rear with 32gb sd card nasa 6,5K. Malinaw!

Many say this but i haven’t experienced any heat related issues yet, if you stay in extreme temperature areas then you may want to double check. I have three 70mai dash-cams in all. The 70mai dual channel(front & rear) A510 In my Ford 7 Seater, and a single channel M200 Dashcam3 in my polo. Reasons i chose these above anything was the Starvis 2 Sensor for absolute clear images day or night. These can be hardwired to capture in parked mode, and the app is easy to use amongst all.

https://70mai.store/products/a510-dash-cam. I have this and it's great. I did a lot of research and I think it's best for the monet.

VIOFO or their sub brand GITUP are firmly number 1. If you go for GITUP to save money, go with the higher FOV over 100 degrees models. I have a F1 160 degrees FOV and it's been working for 5 years. Second would be Xiaomi for me, purely for value for money. Their sub brand is called Mi or Yi cameras. The sensor you want is Sony STARVIS and ideally version 2 of this sensor with HDR. But for version 2 you'll be paying over £100 easily. Dashcamtalk is the leading forum in the world on dashcams. But look on YouTube for any video reviews with footage, try to watch some at night and in the UK. Significantly worse footage at night, which shocks a lot of people. Unfortunately cameras need light to work, hence the awful nighttime footage. I run two independent cameras front and rear. If you go for a kit, usually the rear camera maxed out at 1080P. I run a GITUP 4K front camera and a 1440P rear Xiaomi running off a power bank. In terms of SD Cards, buy your own to save money. Only go for cards designed for continuous use. SanDisk Pro Endurance is my go to. It should say on the packet designed for CCTV or Dash cams. Lastly check your footage once a month. Nothing worse than needing the footage and SD card corrupted or footage not good enough. In fact second lastly, don't think because you are a better driver because you have a dashcam. Plenty of dead or injured people who were in the right and decided not to avoid an incident to be proven right on the dashcam. Brakes before horn and shouting camruh.

Yeah I got the 70mai based on everyone's suggestion. I didn't actually know about the f7n elite. But looks like that has supercapacitor and has 4k recording. Better on paper but not sure if it's actually good.

Yeah man now idk how to feel. I've already bought the 70mai but there's a better one at a similar price🥲. Can't even return this.
