Any sifu can guide? I download latest firmware from www.yitechnology.com and copy to micro sd card class 10 30mb/s. xiaoyi dash cam detected the new firmware from micro sd card but the firmware cannot proceed/ no changes after press update.or Must use micro sd card class 10 80mb/s as stated at download page guide in order to load the latest firmware update? thanks

Anyone has the CN latest firmware? I thinks it still in Beta.
Can share the link?.. Cannot access from the site.

I'm also having these issues using the current CN firmware;
- Noisy recording (especially when you zoom in)
- Difficult to read car plates (unless if the car is right in front of you)
- Button unresponsive after a while (camera is slightly hot) and needed to be push around 2-3 seconds.

If they can solves these issues, I'm a happy user.

Sorry for noob question. How to differentiate between CN and Global US firmware version and where to download the firmware? Mine unit is lost of focus where car plate no cannot see even capture near to the cam.

Yup... my favorite forum for dashcams...

Hi guys, I just bought 1 from 11 street as well. So far quite happy with the quality per price but haven't check the out of focus thing. The only problem I had is the mount is very tight and hard to detach once you pasang...since it's not really discreet so I also don't dare to put it overnight, scare people pecah window to steal so every time need to put on and off = /

Btw, oh shit mine is shipped along with Sandisk micro SD Still can use for now but not sure any disadvantage

It is easier to take it with the mount
I have gave up on removing the cam when parking.
Probably will fill some black sticker to make it not so obvious.
I bought the silver version.

I bought the gold version some more. Standing outside is very very obvious plus the size is not discreet as well. Keep putting on and off I scare the mount will rosak lol but memang take off the mount is easier than taking off the camera from the mount. Another way is only mount half; as in not to lock it tightly when pasang it to the mount

Didn't considered the discreet part when buying it...should have invest more to buy a discreet dash cam so less hassle

Haven't test the quality of the video and out of focus thingy yet. Tonight will take out the micro sd and see the video okay or not

I never take out the dashcams at all... 1 is a hassle. 2 the mount will get loose in the long run.

Am using the Viofo A119 now and very discreet. Will be changing my wife's dashcam later to something discreet and capcacitor also as now she is using the Xiaoyi dashcam...

You can just connect to the cam WIFI and download the video (as long as you have a smartphone)

That is one good looking cam. Did you bought it here and how much was it?

Ya lo but since buy liao if buy a new 1 then waste money already

Oh...scare connection very slow haha. The wifi thing..how it works? I see the dash cam has wifi but not sure which wifi it connects lol. Need to set up using the apps?

as for xiaomi yi dashcam
it got the app..
u need to download and install it..
thn connect to xiaomi yi dashcam wifi..
thn open the app it will automatic detect and u can change setting on app without using dashcam..
u can ply the video on app instead the dashcam..
u also can download as well..

Just DIY, use creativity, disguise only

those discrete cam also juz design a not obvious plastic casing for the cam to sit in

there are a lot idea for that, ranging from

car fragrance casing （if put on top of dashboard, drag hole, cam sit inside)


to hanging decorative stuffs (below rear view mirror, put in front of cam, make hole for lens, juz like spycam idea)



or even fengshui stuffs (below rear view mirror, if roomy stuff can drag hole inside)



if got budget, design your own disguise casing with 3d printer

My creativity level is very low If someone is selling these I am willing to pay for it

visiting souvenir shop, Daiso would give u plenty ideas.

Got it from gearbest for review
Gearbest coupon code A119GBC, price at US$89.90

I review dashcams...

The wifi is ok when watching live videos... Only slow a bit when downloading the videos to your phone... You can setup on the Xiaoyi or on the app...

Okay just now viewed the videos...no out of focus problem and quality is pretty good. But it's damn slow if download the video...I don't know how to view videos without downloading so I end up taking out the SD card

which video mode did you use? 1080p 30fps?

Let me see if I can find the video on how to use the app... I remember it's by Techmoan...

Prefer the 1080p 60fps... Read the 1296p is just digital zoom or something like that on dashcamtalk forum...
