70mai - A810 Plus / T800

The A810 Plus definitely has a supercap, and looks to be solid as anything. I do use the A329 in two channel mode but it has intermittent issues with my Kingston external SSD, Viofo has had to backtrack on its claims of compatibility with SSD enclosures - it's been a mess. A119 V3 I've still got one in the drawer that was my daily for a couple of years, it can't be beaten in the Australian heat here and for it's video quality. Vantrue has caught up a lot in terms of their app and image quality, I would go for E1 Pro which seems to be the pick for a cheap 4k single unit solution. The e360 is a bit out of an outlier as they're trying something new - they have had their doozies like the s1 pro which was quickly replaced by the N2X which was way way better. To be honest, it's a three way battle between Viofo 70mai and Vantrue now. Totally understand the convenience of the Wolfbox and the form factor , it definitely has it's use cases and I can't fault that in the slightest. Wolfbox seem to be getting their game together now which is good. I agree with you on the x800, it seems like that's what the issue is. Shame really but what can you do. To be honest the a810 plus seems to be the safer buy even if the cabin is a crappy 1080p only. YouTube reviewers don't mention these issues not a single one mentioned it for the x800 even though they would have the Dec and January batch units that had the issues.

70Mai in my opinion, I have 4K front and 1080p back A810

I just bought A810 last week, yet to test it out but have researched enough before making purchase. No worries regarding anything and the don't worry about battery too, it will last really long, I was previously using a Xiaomi dashcam, and it's battery lasted 7 year ( still works but it keeps forgetting the date & time due to battery being bad )

The 70mai A200 is on the budget spectrum of dual channel dash cams, watch [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1fatNoWEOQ) review video of the A200. I think it does quite a decent job considering it is only a 1080p dash cam setup. One of the drawbacks of 70mai dash cams has been they use a physical battery in stead of capacitors. Batteries wear out, get hot, swell, etc, you get the picture, But 70mai is slowly switching to capacitors so IMO it is a win win for everyone. In saying the above, I live in Canada and I've owned (or still own) several 70mai dash cams - ~~1S~~, M500, ~~A800S~~, A81*0*, **S500**, Omni X200 - those crossed out I no longer own, and the S500 does use a capacitor instead of a physical battery. Other than the 1S, build quality of the rest have been second to none in my opinion. Not to say the 1S was bad just that it felt/looked cheaper than all the rest. When it comes/came to their use I have absolutely no complaints with their ability to the job they were intended to do tis the reason I keep buying into the brand. P.S. Although we are quite happy with 70mai dash cam brand we aren't tied to them by any means as we also use other brands. It has more to do with us being a techno geek than anything else buuut... We are waiting on 70mai's newest release the Omni X800 LOL.

I got the 70mai with the starvis 2 sensor. Very happy with it

A rechargeable RTC battery should be fine, first because it should be located in the cool part of the camera, as Viofo's are, and second because the charge and discharge rates are extremely slow. A main lithium battery is a totally different matter, they need to be charged rapidly, with enough power to shutdown safely, before the camera can start recording, and they are big enough that they often don't fit in the cool part of the camera. 70mai are not too bad, their normal camera design allows the battery to stay reasonably cool, and they use Li Ion cells instead of Lipos. There have been a few reports of Viofo RTC batteries needing to replaced, but it is unusual, and I don't think it is due to heat problems.

70 mai is good.

Please try out Sound FX guys in Andheri East Good location, and good service. I got dashcam installed on my Nexon a couple of months ago and I am very happy with the service (70mai, bought it from them - same price as Amazon) [https://maps.app.goo.gl/p6EchRCvuWYaaj448](https://maps.app.goo.gl/p6EchRCvuWYaaj448) They were installing dash cams on a BMW and an Audi the same time as mine - so they can handle your Hector I am sure

Holy shit they are expensive! Why pay so much ? Get a 70mai and they do it in half the price

No ,get a 70mai for 10-11k

70mai is great! Do add a lens that will help capture number plates clearly

I have this installed in my car. Works perfectly fine!

Go with a 70mai one and you'll be fine.

I got this 70mai model, very happy with it. Didn’t hardwire, due to warranty considerations, plugged it into the trunk 12v socket. Works great, but the parking camera feature and 4g module will not work in this case — those would require hardwiring

No, not hard at all, the camera modules are secured to the glass with a double-sided tape (comes included). Be careful not to obscure the radar at the front, if you have it (the plastic thing behind your rear view mirror) The included cables are plenty long enough to reach from front to back. I have mine just hanging on the passenger handles, but you definitely could pass them under the interior. For the backside camera, I’ve hidden the cable under the plastic coverings, and it pops out in the bottom corner, not obscuring the back view. I would probably like to hide everything under the panels, but I’m worried about damaging something, as I’m not that mechanically gifted – when I attempt to fix something, I usually then have to fix it 3 times over 😂

My last 2 VIOFO’s didn’t last and had a lot of issues with intermittent recordings on the 70mai, so I’ve tried a cheaper GKU D700…wish me luck. Dad’s had one on his car for about a month and I can’t fault it. Front and rear quality is very good.

70mai. Good dashcam and much better app compared to Qubo

I use the Xiaomi 70 Mai series in all my cars. They are incredible value for money and the parking surveillance feature has unbelievable sensitivity. On top of that, my model creates a GPS breadcrumb map route for every journey included both in the video and as a standalone metric in the app. If you hardwire it, it can even record 24/7 in low-power mode when the car is parked. I believe some models even have a SIM-card slot and can upload/stream to the cloud so you can watch what’s going on around your car from a distance.

I have pretty good luck with 70mai dash cam, make sure you get some good SD cards, those are frequently overlooked, samsung endurance cards are fantastic for dash cams, check them periodically.

I’ve had the opposite experience with 70mai. I’ve had a 70mai in my car for over 2 years now and I live in Arizona where it’s 40c+ for a good chunk of the year and I’ve never had issues. My parents have one in Bangalore and they’ve never had issues either. Yours might have been defective

A family friend gifted my father a dash cam from the us. It was from a brand called Nexar. Back then it had worldwide support. The product was amazing. It synced to its own cloud storage live. Sadly they discontinued the support to India. I bought a Qubo one few days ago. It’s pretty good. I personally use 70mai. It’s the same. Features and all.

I have 70mai which has nice picture quality

70mai is much much better.

I'm using 70mai dash cams on all my cars, they work like a charm as well. Cheap, good quality, good app. More than enough just to prove a point to the police
