Nexar - Beam

As someone that got a new 256gb 970x dual for like 350 last year after taxes, can assure you it’s not worth it for 500. And I see the plus is 540 plus taxes for me, where are you from? My cams are great, but that’s kind of the expensive side. I’d wait for Black Friday honestly, got mine from Amazon around then if I’m not mistaken If you want something cost effective, get a 590x dual but with a higher memory option. For their prices, they’re quite nice, and nevertheless, BlackVue and Thinkware are definitely great brands. Garmin and Viofo are good too, and just avoid nexar - I have a pro, beam, and a one lying around someone as they all suck 😂

I use Nexar and the video quality is good. Way cheaper than that. Cheapest I believe it $80.

Yup, I’ve had a regular Nexar Beam since 2021 and it’s been working fine. Very very rarely it disconnects and doesn’t record a drive but it’s so simple to fix. Literally just open the app and let it sync up to the camera and you’re good to go. It’s definitely good for a budget. My biggest con for Nexar is there’s no rear camera option other than buying another Beam and paying for their subscription service to be able to have both front and back cameras recording at once.

Nexar Beam isn't bad. I've had it for about 3 years & still going strong. If this kicks the can I may go with the more expensive version which records in 4k although 1080p is honestly good enough.

Nexar Beam. I have 2 and no complains about them [Nexar Beam](https://www.getnexar.com/the-dash-cams/beam/)
