oh gosh why so long. I cannot accept q800 pro noise level when the shop show me the video haha.

I think I'll just go with f800 pro now. Hope this there is no significant diffence between this 2 model.

Ooops you are right

Yeah.. I want to say it's perhaps the "kedekutness" that allows them to easily afford said higher price range cars? .. Nevertheless I agree, that BMW cam isn't RM3K worthy at all.. Same thing I tell some folks. You buy a dashcam and hope not to need it. But if you do, then you want a decent quality capture instead of a blur or "look like me, not me" situation..

A dashcam works in the same way like an insurance.
Good to have when you needed it.

when shit happen then they realize how important it is

What do you guys think of iroad dashcams? I see lots of talk on Thinkware only. I am sure it is very good quality but for the price, sometimes out of budget for certain people. iroad seems more affordable. How is the quality compared to thinkware or even viofo?

iRoad is designed in Korea and made in China.

Got true parking mode like other Korean dashcams.

Don't like the proprietary video file format they used as a need to convert to others in order to use.

If you search, there was a lot of quality issues with previous models and lots of recalls happened before.

Newer models heard their wifi dongle is not that durable and spoils quickly.

Pricewise if add on GPS module and installation, etc is almost like Thinkware.

As above.
Me as iroad x9 user. It ist the bad dashcam. But it have some basic issue like file format and app support
File format I won't care so much as I put in pc and export
The real issue is the app. Android 9 almost can't connect the dashcam keep ask me to pair. Even successfully pair, can't go in to review video or it immediately disconnected. Reason unknown.

IF you have extra budget, go for Thinkware or Blackvue.
Iroad sit in between high end and low end. Not the bad dashcam but also not the perfect dashcam for its price.

Okay, so you are saying iroad is not worth it's asking price? Might as well get viofo, right?

a bit yes for the 'not worth it's asking price'.

they can do better with the price, or make it lower price.
So far I using 1 year+- didt meet quality issue, and recently removed a week for windshield replace + remove all tint and retint it.
No issue other then app.

Many actually think it's just good to have, not a necessity. Or they are too lazy, or justify not installing by saying it'll attract thieves.
Now, its usage has been expanded to include capturing road bullies. With video, bullies can't get away easily.

My big-ass Yi cam in front is easily seen by drivers in front of me, so that might act as a deterrent against potential stunts by them.

The dashcam managed to allows me claim minor incident from RapidKL bender fender my car. A year ago.

Then a few times I've reported to JPJ WhatsApp on cars/trucks driving dangerously.

Recently, identify which 🐈 that scratches my car in the middle of night. Wasn't big issue, but aware at least.

Ok.. need to ask, what Car DVR u using... 😅

Previously Viofo a119 V2, then upgrade to A129 Duo

Next upgrade A129 Pro Duo

Main factor would be pricing. Since it's just 4k recording. Currently 1080p from the A129 Duo never fails me so far when it comes to recording.

One thing I notice is that, when my car start it's engine after on stop ignition during idle, the camera screen awakes but luckily no recording stopped. It continues recording as usual.

Not sure if vibration awakes it, but upon checking the recording through app, the recording files aren't locked either. So it could be just vibration of the car awakes it but not strong vibration enough to lock the file.

I've set it to 3 minutes recording interval. So to my assumption, the first stage of low vibration wakes the screen and second stage of stronger vibration will trigger the current recording file to be lock.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Am looking for the best budget capacitor dashcam. I quite like the Blueskysea as its small-sized and cheaper compared to the popular Viofo.
Only thing is that there are no local distributor/installers here.

If I buy it online; is there any shops able to help me install it?

Ok tq.
Currently on a119 v2 and a118 (2nd car).
If a118 failed.. can upgrade.. 🤣
