I’ve had a Nexar beam since 2020. I’ve replaced the sd card once, the usb power cable once. The suction cup with the gps component stopped working once between then and now and Nexar mailed me a replacement at no charge. Also I was slip seating from 2020 so I was taking it out every day which probably caused the issues with the cable and gps component (the wire got shorted from disconnecting every day).

Nexar Beam 2 or whatever it’s called. Cloud storage all videos on app on my phone. Crash alerts, hard break alerts, tracks car location

Nexar is actually a good one if you don’t use wireless CarPlay/AA. It maintains a WiFi connection with your phone and videos are stored there as well as the camera. Makes it easy to review the footage.

VIOFO is one that a lot of people get and I've fitted one on another car our family has. I currently use Nexar but I'm also thinking about getting another VIOFO cam. Idk if VIOFO make dashcams using other sensors but just make sure you get one with the Sony sensor. Video quality is really good on all of their cams and there are plenty of videos showcasing the quality too. Just be aware (idk if this is for all dashcams), if you want to hardwire it to use the Parking Mode, you will have to purchase the hardware for that separately. When we bought everything it came up to £115 or £120?

I used Nexar for years. In multiple cars as well, I had bought it in 2018. Still holding up excellent but I wanted a higher quality video and a rear view as well so I just recently got REDTIGER. Check in with y’all in a few years haha

That’s what it took for me to get a dash cam. Getting hit from a person making a wrong turn and then lying about it to both of our insurance companies. Nexar one recorded front and cabin but you def need that rear one for more protection.
