Can you also share the pix when it is mounted on the car?
Can't tell how small is this.

Not sure if you can see from this picture... I can't take a picture from the rear as it's hidden behind my rear view mirror...

Videos uploaded. Have to re-record again as there was a firmware update from SkyHigh...

Nice bro.
Any recommended dash cam that's small enough and look like part of the rear view mirror that you would recommend ? I want it to be discreet as I hate to keep it in the drawer. I'm staying in a condo

You can try the A118C as it's quite discreet... I'm staying in a condo too and I don't remove my dashcams at all...

Do you know a good dashcam model with front and rear camera which can be powered by our car battery?

Dual dashcam only Korean dashcam (Blackvue, iRoad, Lukas, etc) is good but not cheap... Minimum rm1k+++++...

cool bro, will check that out or you have the review of that?

Nope. Haven't review it but my friend is using it...





Btw GB is having sale for the A118C

thanks bro. will check it out at GB

a118c looks good as it is discreet. However, I read the reviews in GB site that it is bad with night recording. I see the recording you provided by your friend does look decent enough. It is not as good as your 0807 but looks good enough for me. Any comment?

Anyway A118C is a matured dashcam so lot of fixes have been done on it d...

At the moment the bit rate on the 0807 is only 10.3 Mbps which is low... Hopefully the manufacturer will release a new firmware which it will improve the video quality to at least minimum 15 Mbps or higher...

Seen other manufacturer which did this like the D201, the video quality improved a lot with a new firmware.

Uploaded videos using new firmware from skyhigh which increased the overall bit rate of the video.
