I’m in a similar situation, driving a company box truck where management pretends “nothing ever happens on the road”. A few months back, a car cut me off while I was merging, slammed the brakes, and then tried to blame me for rear-ending them. Luckily I had my own dash cam rolling… well, I would have, if it hadn’t overheated earlier that day. That’s when I decided never again. I picked up the DDPAI Z50 Pro after that. It’s small enough to pop on right before my shift, then I just unplug and throw it in my bag afterward. Night footage is clean enough to catch plates in dark alleys when I’m doing late drops, and the app connection is super quick if I need to review something right away. Haven’t had a “brake-check hero” try anything since… but if they do, I’m ready now. If you want a bit more clarity, the Z60 Pro is basically the same experience, just sharper video. Totally worth the peace of mind when the company won’t cover you.
I’ve been down this road, if you want something reliable and not too expensive, I’d suggest checking out a DDPAI dashcam. I’m using one and it’s been solid: good video quality, app works well, and the parking-mode/back-up protection gives peace of mind. If you go cheap and off-brand, just make sure you know what you’re getting, I’ve heard too many stories of dashcams overheating or recording terrible video. A known brand (and a dual-channel unit) is usually worth it over a bargain bin cam.
I had the same problem with an older cam shutting off in the heat. In SoCal the sun really cooks the car interior so you need something built for it. A lot of people in the driver groups I follow recommend DDPAI since they use supercapacitors instead of batteries, which handle heat much better. I’ve been running the DDPAI Z60 Pro with a 4K front and 1080P rear setup. Both lenses use Sony sensors with HDR so the footage stays sharp day and night, and the app makes it easy to check clips without pulling the card. It also has smart power management for parking mode so it will not drain your battery. Been solid through hot summers without shutting down.
Yup. Pero 32gb lang haha. We are using ddpai z60 pro yung 3 way cam
I’ve seen a lot of people mention the DDPAI Z60 Pro for its image quality and reliability, so I picked one up myself. Been using it for about 3 months now and the difference from my previous dashcam is huge, especially in terms of stability and handling heat. more reliable in long-term.

1. I got a DDDPAI Z60 pro on my BYD but regret it because 4K is overkill for a dashcam and the software features are just not that well designed. The 1440p Viofo I have on my Civic is way better in terms of usability and features. Both use a Sony starvis sensor so excellent low light quality. 2.Heather Dashcam and Car accessories (Facebook) - I think they have a shop in Marikina but they did a homeservice install for mine. What's cool about them is that they accept installation of dashcams even if you bought it from somewhere else like shopee. Their technician knew his stuff, I asked him a bunch of questions (since I have experience installing dashcams myself). Paid only ₱900 for a hardwire installation via OBD kit, and gave the guy a tip because I could tell he's an expert and did everything with care exactly the way I would install my own dashcam.
Don't get a 4K dashcam. My Ddpai z60 pro is 4k and eats up a 256gb sd card in 8hrs. I was really surprised the Ddpai software has no option to record in a smaller resolution, my Viofo dashcams all had this feature.
Don't get a DDPAI. I made the mistake if getting the Z60 Pro dual with the 4G cloud box. CONS : - App is pretty buggy - Only resolutions are 4k30 and 3k60, no option to bump down to 1440p or 1080p - no software switch to disable parking mode temporarily if you have it hardwired. - File naming scheme and folder structure is terrible for organization and also non customizable - no hardware button to 'lock' a video clip, you have to shout "take photo" PROS : - sony starvis 2 sensor so good low light performance - hasn't crashed/stopped recording in the 2 months I installed it. Much rather get a Viofo
