Same model without Canon wording rm150 or rm230 depending on chipset

Anyway if really Canon, you think will be so cheap? hmm.gif  hmm.gif  hmm.gif

Even that Besta brand dashcam  is more expensive than this "Canon"...

Is Besta any good? I can see that a lot of people here are using G1W. From video comparison of what is on youtube, I'd say the video quality is about the same. Don't know if compare directly from memory card straight on computer would make any difference or not.

Best to buy from reputable sellers like Gearbest, Banggood, Foxoffer, etc...

From Gearbest: Viofo A118C, A118C from another company
*
What's the difference between Viofo A118C and the other company?

I didn't realize it before and already bought the one from another company. Sometimes at night it didn't record eventhough I already enable loop recording and motion detection. Anyone knows why and how to solve this?

Like most China companies, you have good and bad companies...

Viofo is one of the few reputable dashcam companies in China.

Then you have those companies who saw companies who are making $ out dashcams like the A118C, buy the original, make copies and sells with different hardware and software.

As for your issue, you need to check on the settings, the seller or the manufacturer. Unless someone have the same device as you.

Demmit. Too bad I bought it in GB before going thru here. I wasn't aware there are duplicate in GB as well considering that they are in general quite reputable.

Will see what I can do regarding the issue..

The A118C from another company. That is the one that's having problem recording at night time that I mentioned

Saw this new black XiaoYi dashcam in Taobao.
Promotion price around RMB218 (RM137) excluding shipping to Malaysia.

[attachmentid=7890411]

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


According to the spec,
This look like downgrade version of XiaoYi dashcam if compare to previous colour gold/grey.

Reason:
- it can record up to 1080p30 using H.264 encoding (compare previous up to with 2K (1296p 2304×1296) at 30fps or 1080p60 / 1080p30 )
- support up to 32GB microSD (previous up to 64GB)

Is it using battery or capacitor? I think the first xiaomi dashcam is using battery right?

I've set the loop recording to 5 minutes, but the clips are 2 min/clip when view in laptop.. is it work this way? or something wrong?
*
Last time I had this kind of problem when I set motion sensor on. The motion sensor is not good enough that sometimes it doesn't correctly detects that you're moving; hence it stopped recording after 2 minutes.

I just turn off motion sensor and now it is recording fine. The only downside is that it will also record when you're parking with the engine still on, but it's better than it stopped recording after 2 minutes

Looks like a cheap version of A118C/119. The proven A118C is priced cheaper than that. Better go with trusted brand.

Viofo is not selling in gearbest anymore? I tried to search there but cannot find.

I saw the generic A118C is on flash sale in GB. Seems like good alternative for those looking for cheap dashcam.

blurjoey what is the difference between xiaomi mijia dashcam and xiaomi 70 mai? In terms of video quality, which one do you think is better?

I am looking to get either A119 or mini 0906, but at the same time trying to look for cheaper alternative as well.

Both Mijia dashcam and 70mai have same MStar processor and Sony sensor.

The only difference is the 70mai have more discreet design than the Mijia dashcam. But F2.2 130° viewing angle on the 70mai and F1.8 160° viewing angle on the Mijia dashcam. Mijia dashcam is a bit better. Another to look at is the Yi dashcam King Edition aka Ultra.

Planning a comparison video between Mijia dashcam x Yi dashcam King Edition x SJ Dash but need to update all to the latest firmware first. What do you think?
*
Comparison video would be good I think since those 3 are usually the candidates for those who are looking for 'safe' brand in dashcams. I noticed my friends that are lazy to do some research would just go with these brands.

It's been a while since I last heard of SJ Dash thou biggrin.gif

It looks quite nice. I wonder if it's using capacitor or battery. Didn't find anything mentioning about it.

In one of the picture, they're actually use A118 in the picture instead of the actual product. LOL. It's safe to say they're using A118 design as benchmark. Attached Image
