Is the 3m or suction cup better?
*
If you park your car outside in the hot sun more, 3m mount is better as suction mount will fall down more due to the heat...

But some ppl don't like 3m mount as it might ruin their tint when want to remove... But the mijia dashcam comes with some films which you stick on the windscreen first then stick the dashcam on it, can do the same with other dashcams too...

Hi can I know what is the use of a Gsensor? And also what's the function for emergency recording?

Always in the midst of recording, suddenly a loading bar in red (with mandarin) appear at the bottom of LCD, can I know why is it there?

Lastly, possible to set the duration of recording for one video file before the program creates several files say 5 mins long?
*
The gsensor is only used to automatically lock files in the case of an event triggering the gsensor...

Emergency recording, is manually activate recording in the emergency folder... Dashcam don't overwrite the video files in the emergency folder...

The red bar means the gsensor is triggered and moving the video file to the emergency folder... Try changing to low sensitivity if frequent trigger the gsensor...

Nope. Can't change the 2 minutes video file as there is no settings to do so...

Thank you to t3n, blurjoey & NightFelix for the prompt reply!

However, I went thru the saved files and noticed that it does not always record everything from the moment the dash cam is on to the moment I switched off the engine.

Is it normal?

BTW, what app you guys recommend for stitching up the 2 min files into one video?
*
Look in the other folders too...

I'm using Filmora to join the videos together... Can also look at Format Factory which can join video files too...

okay,

so how to setting record on, when the engine is start and turn off recording when the engine stop.

or need to press manually the button record start/stop each time driving.
*
No need to press anything when engine start and off, it's automatic. This is not dashcams from 3+ years ago tongue.gif

Even the overwrite old files when sd card is full is automatic...

Yi 60fps is worse than 30fps, amplified even more in night footages. Videos look smoother on 60fps giving a false sense of better quality, but when you freeze the frame the colors are more washed out and not clear compared to 30fps.
*
Haven't done 60fps on the Yi dashcam yet... Hahaha... Thinking should I do or not...

I think you should if you have the time  biggrin.gif  maybe even compare yi's 30 vs 60fps on the same route for a short distance.
*
I'll stop after the Yi 60fps... Hahaha...

Mijia have parking monitoring system, which might be an extra mark compared to yi cam, because lot of incident also happen during we park our car
*
Actually, the mijia don't have parking mode... I don't see any settings in the mijia dashcam or the mihome app...

Those planning to buy Mijia.. I would recommend to use 64GB micro SD card at least... Because Mijia will reserve quite a lot of space for emergency recording..

My 32GB micros sd card split into 2 parts:
1) Emergency - 5++ GB
2) Normal - 20++ GB
3) Another 6GB++ don't know gone where, lol

That means I only have approximately 2.5hrs of recording only, which i think too little...
*
3) should be the temp video files to watch on the phone via wifi so that it's faster to transfer than the full size video...

Wow.. the last video feels like Yi is better than Mijia... I feel the Mijia video too much yellowish... And with the 60FPS, the video is clearer now, especially when you look at the tree...
*
Not sure why it was yellowish... The day video was ok... Thinking if it's the cloudy wet day maybe?

hey guys,

by any chance should we get high endurance type of microsd card that was meant for read/write/rewrite heavily in dash camera or action camera?
*
If can, yes... But heard it's not cheap...
