I have the advanced eye pro 3.0 in my m440i gc, i can configure the sensitivity of the g sensors, also it has infra red and can film in park mode if something moves around the car, works fine for me
I'm using BMW's Car Eye Pro 3.0 It's a long ass name and the front camera unit also hilariously huge but the rear camera is a nice size. Picture quality is pretty clear and has a bunch of fancy features you'd expect from a high end dashcam so I'm not too bothered
I'm using BMW's CarEye 3.0 So far it's been great, only issue is that the front camera unit is large
Don't rule out BMW's own after-market 'Advanced Eye' cameras. Although they're not integrated with the car so they don't give you anything that any other comparable third-party camera couldn't, the installation cost is heavily subsidised by BMW (IIRC I think it takes about 3.5 hours labour, but you only pay about 30 mins). Personally, I'd be much happier about a BMW trained mechanic hard-wiring a camera into my i4 than a kid from Halfords who has done a half day course on installing cameras on generic cars and has most likely never worked on an i4 (or maybe even an EV) before.
Yes, just ask the dealer. A year ago it was £295 Inc VAT to supply and fit the Advanced Car Eye 3.0, and £599 for the ACE 3.0 Pro (including the rear camera)
The Drive Recorder sucks. Ordered it back then. Wrong decision.
The bmw eye is pretty good. But expensive unless came with. I will still get iRoad as it served me very well on last car.
There’s Drive Recorder for a subscription fee through the Connected Drive. Good enough for me.
