Nextbase - 422GW Dash Cam

I also got nextbase 422GW with rear camera and hardwired kit. Got a local garage to install it.

From a deatiled youtube review of them a few years ago I read that they all basically have the same chip inside them. None of them are that great in low light or 4K dispite their claims. So pick one that is reasonably priced and go for it. Once its stuck on your windscreen you will never look or touch it again, so don't worry about touch screens or 'features' you will never use. It just needs to 'work' when you start the car and continue recording. We have a nextbase 422GW which we got installed in 2022. Its worked non stop since then. The only issue we've had is occasionally the SD card says 'error' and we need to reformat it and then it carries on as usuall.

Nextbase 422GW; it has all the essential features without the subscription nonsense 

About 400 bucks, 422 next base with rear camera.. self installed https://preview.redd.it/cz0f96dcq53g1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1961c295368d58eb5dbf2407f23fea607722dce7 The Toyota dashcam is there, but its a backup, nothing more

Nextbase 432gw, it's utter dog shit and I hate it. Don't buy nextbase ever

seeing this after i got gifted a nextbase 422GW for christmas💔

Welcome to the van life! I have a Ducato too, and those Remis blinds definitely make dashcam placement tricky. You should look into Nextbase cameras (like the 422GW or 522GW). They use a 'Click&Go' magnetic mount. The trick: You stick the small base to the windshield once. The convenience: The camera itself attaches via a very strong magnet. You can snap it off in a split second at night and pop it back on in the morning without messing with wires or suction cups. It’s rock solid and won't fall off even on bumpy roads. Another solid option is the Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2—it’s so tiny that most people just leave it behind the mirror and the blinds close right over it. Hope this helps!

I'm using a nextbase 422GW. Quality is good even in lowlight/night driving.

I would avoid nextbase personally - owned one for 2 1/2 years. Whilst the video and night quality is decent, the app is awful - it struggles to work and makes things very difficult to locate and view. After the first year the software started becoming consistently unreliable. My camera randomly stops recording, locks you out from controlling and restarts the camera and needs to be manually started most of the time, and keeps resetting the date so the files aren't in order (had a clip i wanted to look at that evening and when I got home I found it had already been overwritten as it had an early date on). For the price I wouldn't expect these issues and I don't have much faith that it will be recording when I need it most, and that's kind of what you need a dash cam for...

Yeah I heard they don't last the longest, but I guess mine hasn't "just stopped working" like a lot of the reviews I saw so I'm not in the worst situation at least. I'm away from my car currently but it's either a 322gw or 422gw I had mine fit professionally for £70 I believe. Went direct with nextbase as I got a better offer than Halfords. Would probably recommend the fitting if you're not handy as it keeps it looks tidy and ensures it works with start stop etc. Seems you were given a couple of other brands, personally would check those out instead. Saved a few of those comments myself as I'll be looking to get another when this becomes unbearable!

We've had Nextbase front and rear for about 5 years now, no issues. Just remember to reformat the SD card occasionally.

Toyota branded Nextbase unit, installed by dealer. Quality is only average but the install is very neat (no visible wires at all) and the camera easily clips in and out. There's a Toyota Dashcam app to view it or you can take out the SD card or the whole camera and connect to pc.
