"But both work great and I would 100% get front and rear."
"just make sure you have a dual cam, that is front and rear."
"If you have the powered rear window, I designed and 3D printed a bracket for the rear camera to stay centered when the window is open. ... For my BlackVue rear camera, I made it so that the camera lens will be perfectly centered so long as the top bar of the mount is centered with the window. I also adjusted the drop of the camera to be between the defrost lines as to not have a blurry obstruction from them."

"You can also download clips to your smartphone via app by connecting via Wi-Fi direct."

"The app. It's a complete pain in the ass to view any footage ... it won't update the firmware because the dashcam connects to my phone via wifi and if it's connected via wifi, there's not any actual Internet access from the cellular signal so it can never update 🤣 what a joke."
