Depends on how decent you want. Realistically to prove who is at fault in an accident, just get the cheapest dashcam (edit: with a lot of reviews and high stars) with the features you want on Amazon, you don't even need a rear camera (only type of accident where it helps prove fault is some types of merging accidents). Features like GPS (to record speed), voice control, and WiFi app connection to download videos easily are all nice to have. Parking mode always requires hardwiring to your car so that's extra hassle but can be done by either connecting to fuse box of OBD2 port, just get the type of cable you need for that. If you want to capture license plates you basically need a camera with the Sony starvis 2 sensor, preferably the 4k version IMX 678 instead of 675. I'd recommend a VIOFO, Vantrue isn't bad either (don't get their E360 if you care about capturing detail, it sucks at that due to wide FOV and 2K sensor, but it's otherwise a cool product). Beware of cameras that have bad processing and can't take advantage of the sensor, as well as cameras that only use a good sensor on the front camera and not the rear. Some others like top end Blackvue and Thinkware cameras are also not bad with features like LTE capability or radar parking mode, but they get hella expensive and the video quality isn't really better. If you do ride share, get one with a cabin cam.

I use a vantrue N5 and E360, both are not under $100...they may have ones under $100.... There is a lens filter for some of their cameras that you would need to configure by rotating till you find the sweet spot otherwise there would be a glare from the sun or headlights. As for night driving lol, your lights reflect off the other car's plate when you review footage their plates are whited out.... Thus if you're not injured read out the plate, your dashcam will record your voice....that's if it doesn't fly off the mount....

I've had a Vantrue E360 for several months and it's had zero problems. It gets pretty hot here in the south and it gets pretty toasty sometimes on the dash. It's worked fine with a couple of Samsung memory cards (one a Pro Endurance).

I use a combination to give different features. A cheaper front and rear dashcam with a 10" front screen on the dash to serve as a backup camera, a 360-degree camera (Vantrue E360) to get everything, and a 4K front-only dashcam for a clearer front view for plates etc. and for nicer clips to post on YouTube. This way I've got three effective cameras in front, two views of the back, and a view out all the sides, with each specializing in different areas so one camera doesn't have to do it all (which would be very expensive). Only the E360 is hardwired with timelapse when parked, so it gets everything at all times (except at home, where the hardwire adapter has a switch to turn off after 20 minutes).

Vantrue e360. Great camera and is also an action cam if you want. If not vantrues other products have really good sensors

Yes, but with all of those you need a hardwire kit which is an extra couple bucks, en (and most cars) don't keep 12v power when off

It's on sale for 150 right now, comes with forward, cabin, and rear.

This camera X4S DUO was not that bad, but have glitches and all that, after 3 years I bought another one Vantrue E360 + LTE module, that was like $650 with installation (at Vantrue Authorized dealership at NY Auto City located in Queens) Camera from the beginning give me a hard time, didnt record all the time (I checked and everything was setup good), freezes all the time, and LTE module didn't work as it should (it is hardwire), I needed to turn it off and on every day, to be able to access it via LTE signal. Dealer replaced me the LTE Module, statting they have new updated batch with their own sim card that fixes everything. NOPE!!!! It even was worse, it was exactly as the old one except worked for 2 months (yes, I neededd too turn it off and on few times during this time) and LTE service they provided cost $9.99 for 2GB internet, after that you need to purchase additional 2GB internet. After 2 months everything stopped working, camera was freezing every time I was driving more than 30min. LTE module even after purchasing 2GB of internet, could not activated, contacted them and they say all should work, just turn it off and tunr it on back again, NOPE that didnt worked at all, just my extra trip to the car. I contacted Vantrue, they told me that, they cant do anything, as I purchased dascam from offline store, I explained them, that this is Vantrue Authorized dealer, they just try to tell me, contact them, they will solve the issue, NOPE they didn't, they told me to contact Vantrue with this. I emaild Vantrue again and they replay with that: I understand how you feel and want to help resolve the issue, but I’m sorry—since you made the purchase offline. This is our company policy, and we’re unable to make exceptions. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you for your understanding. AND I JUST LOST IT, THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THERE PRODUCT, AVOID THEM AT ALL COST!!!

Me and my co-worker have had great luck using the DDPAI Mini Pro (no longer available) for the past nearly 25 months. One is in my work truck and the other two in his car & pickup. Hard to complain considering the initial purchase price(s) were $40 CAD. Decent enough video quality IMO for what it is. I was contemplating trying one of their newer models but I already too many good dash cam than I know what to do with... Been using dash cams since 2010 having very little issues with any of them. At present my personal vehicles are equipped as follows... Pickup - Wolfbox G900 Pro front & rear, Vantrue E1 Pro front, Viofo A119M Pro rear, and soon-to-be-installed Vantrue E360 ACE front, inside, rear. SUV - Viofo A229 Plus triple channel, Vantrue E1 Pro.
