Hi, newbie to dashcam here....just got it FOC from car dealer

May I ask what is the reasonable microSD storage size for dashcam?

Thanks. Is 64Gb sufficient? Or overkill? Thanks

Depends on you. You can get a 32GB or a 64GB is good enough but don't use Sandisk Ultra.

Sorry for dumb question, 32GB will roughly last how long. How about 64GB? Why no Sandisk Ultra? Kingston ok?

32GB about 3+- hours of videos. 64GB will be about 6+- hours. Depends on the video resolution, bit rate, etc.

Sandisk Ultra is known to die very fast (less than 1 year) when used in dashcams.

Wow....6+ plus, mean say average per day, say 2 hours on road, within 3 days will full, can't even last 1 week. Let me check again the dashcam manual (got it free when bought the car, biggrin.gif ) The SA told me won't overwrite, need to manually remove and clear when full, mean every few days need to take out and delete doh.gif

And, thanks for the heads up on Sandisk Ultra, nearly bought at Lazada, but, still want survey. I thought their brand very strong, market leader for SD card, and even more expensive than Kingston. Kingston ok?

Yeah.. Beggar can't be chooser.. I doubt it's RM1xx, cuz that's Yi cams territory already. But it's okay.. Use first as testing bed. Hope it lasts.

Ok, ok.....will test it out first. First time using dash cam.... biggrin.gif

I actually want to see it... Wonder he can take a picture of it and post here...

Ok, ok....later go home I take photo try post here. Have not install it yet, coz the tint company say better don't put on windscreen in order not damage the tint. Thinking what alternative I got. Maybe put another layer of sticker, like those road tax sticker before put the dash cam suction cup.

Sandisk Ultra is actually their low range of cards. Meant for storage and not for use in dashcams.

Extreme series or High Endurance series can be used in dashcams but not cheap.

You can look at Samsung Evo Plus.

Sorry, sorry...see wrongly. I look at SanDisk Extreme 64GB...RM79 at Lazada

this one

Suction cup? Another layer of tint won't help much. Only those using tape mount will benefit from the extra layer.

You want to use Sandisk Extreme on a cheapo dashcam? sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Err...then, when u propose not to damage the tint ah.....the tint is bit expensive, therefore, if possible, mau protect it from damage.

And, I am actually clueless on SD card, any recommendation? Reasonable one will do lah......not too cheap until spoil within 1 year time laugh.gif Kingston ok mou? RM55 for 64GB. Or, got something even cheaper but fall within my requirement 1-2 years durability....best if 5 years laugh.gif

Think you better wait a week before use the suction cup on your tint.

Look for Samsung Evo Plus microSD cards.
