Thanks for the review bro.
Appreciate your hardwork.
Btw, do you know how the 24/7 recording works?
I plan to upgrade my current non-pro version to this pro version.
Do you think the upgrade worth it?

I think this 70Mai dashcam is a super budget dashcam below RM200 (US$50) price range with Sony IMX323 sensor. The video quality is crisp and clear.

I don't have the chance to try out the voice command yet as if not mistaken have to be in Mandarin. Will test later when have time.

It's triggered by the g-sensor.

It can run off the 500mAh battery but may only last about 15-30 minutes of recording.

There is a 70mai hardwire kit available for the parking mode.

Maybe use the 70mai dashcam as a rear dashcam?

All resolutions are in 30fps only.

I did't see the option for voice command in the app, manual or the website.

Hi, the Third one is the ground wire.
May i know why it got something to do with power differential, are we talking about more than 12v? Just my noob curiosity.

That's a 2-wires hardwire kit. It's more for powering the dashcam without parking mode.

Here are the 3-wires hardwire kit for 70mai Pro in Tmall

Both are actually from the same manufacturer. 70mai is under Mijia.

Hardwire is to power the dashcam when engine is off for parking mode (BATT) then power on when engine is on (ACC) for normal recording. This is 3 wires hardwire kit function.

I usually won't recommend getting a lithium battery dashcam in hot countries. Always go for supercapacitor dashcams.

Better quality lithium batteries have better durability and maybe can last about 1.5 - 2 years or so. But will also fail.

The 70mai Pro is good but only if it was using a capacitor...

Can't charge anymore. Can't save the settings and last video file.

Like all lithium battery, it might get bloated or leaking or worst case scenario - explodes.

For older dashcams, I saw someone replaced the battery with capacitor but not all can do that.

Hi All, been using this for 2 weeks now.
The parking mode as tested works well and I got voice prompted when switch on car of there is new video for parking mode. (tested with high sensitivity G sensor). Bought it from Lazada around RM 249, the video downloaded can easily be play with sound inside video which Mai 70 video can't hear anything after downloaded.

Bro, can you do a review comparing the pro vs non-pro version?
It would be great if we can see the video quality side by side.

You stick the electrostatic film on the windscreen then stick the 70mai Pro on it to prevent damaging your tint/windscreen.
