Have myself install with Iroad X9 and notice overall is not as clear as we seen from youtube footage. The video quality is not so clear as well and you can feel there is blurry on the video. I didn't notice much improvement on the video compares to my 2 years ago old Transcend dash cam video quality.

Another issue that I found is the windscreen reflection is too much for front and rear camera. I am wondering where can get the Polarizing filter to add-on the camera lens. Haha...this is my personal opinion.

I decide to take Iroad is due to the weather here in Malaysia is always too hot, and from review, Iroad has no problem on the heat. that's the reason there is a lot of Singaporean is using Iroad Dash Cam. Other than that is the Dash Cam stability.

But I truly disappointed for spending about RM13XX to get such low-quality video. My opinion is very personal. Just see any of Iroad X9 user here can share your thought too....

P/S: don't ever trust the youtube footage that all look very clear on the image and good color. When you see clearly, it is like totally no windscreen reflection at all too.

I can't do anything with the camera distance as it is fix and unable to adjust. It is using double sided tape and is with a fixed base as well. No choice lor...haha.
Polarized lens should able to solve the issue, but so far I can see there is for blackvue model. After use for a while sure will don't have any feeling anymore.

No choice, since already get it and then use it until it can't work anymore. If there is a Polarized lens can be found, will be consider to trying on it.

I mean when I see from youtube footage showing the video shoot using X9 is superb clear. But the reality is so so to me. No surprised for the money I spend.
Now just hope the overall built is tahan lasak and can tahan the sunlight heat. My previous cam can auto off if too hot or memory card will suddenly can't read as well. Maybe cannot tahan too hot.

Everyone also assumes higher price and expectations for a higher video quality, otherwise why we have to pay more right?
Agree Blackvue and Thinkware is in the trend now, and also Marbella?

Any idea to completely remove the sticky from Dash Cam double sided Mounting Pad on windscreen? I try to remove my old dash cam and the sticky still there. I had try using WD40 and Sticker removal chemical but yet still there. Please share if any of taikor her have better way. Thanks!!

I agree with you. The video is just so so and I feel few hundred dash cam can do better.
I feel i been cheat from review the iroad footage.

Thinner will damage the tint?

I never expect it will be exactly like the footage, but at least 70% shall be good. However it is not. Haha..
Just hope it will be more stable and reliable. My previous dash cam always hang, shut down or the memory card will show error after long time drive.

By the way, how dental floss apply?

I had completely remove the double sided tape from the windscreen. the problem I facing now is the sticky mark still on the windscreen. I am trying many ways to get rid of it as I see liao I beh song. Haha...
Maybe get some petrol to wipe it off. Not sure if it works or damages the tint.

So, maybe I have to try to get some petrol today. Petrol should not as sharp as Thinner (I guess). You sure Sanitizer gel help? My house should got the dettol 1.

Nothing to peel now. Is only left the adhesive mark. I try to snap some photo later.

Here is the sticky mark that I refering to. Tak tahan when I see that. Have to get rid of it. Tonight will try nail polish alchohol and sanitizer gel.

I had try using Sticker Removal chemical that I bought from hardware shop last time, addition with glass cleaner, nail removal, and Dettol hand sanitizer. Look like damn Kiasu right?
I didn't get the Goo gone as I feel probably it will be similar to the sticker removal I use.

The result still visible, really don't have idea or maybe don't have a passion to work on it. When you rub with the chemical, the sticky will feel like melting, but it very fast will dry up. When it dry, the sticky will become hard and stay at the position again. Just worry the most I do, the position grow bigger.

Will try to go to car detailing shop to see whether they can make it disappear.

Haha...damn TL liao. don't want to do liao. Leave it there lor. Or just go change front windscreen Tint saja senang. Waste my 1 week time to settle this shit.

what is OCD?

I still can live with that. Not until OCD level yet. Just think to try it out and wanna make it back to perfect only.

Yes, pity me to try out so many kinds of method. But all the chemical is left over previously. Not purposely go to buy that.
Just not sure the thinner will wash off the color of the tint. I know it might not damage the tint paper, but my concern is the coating.

Is ok Bro...we are too far away. No problem, keep on trying until it damage.

I think you can stick a pcs of transparent stickers like the road tax plastic sticker or next service plastic quality, or something like tint can cut to size maybe slightly bigger than the 3M tape area. Tape it nicely and it should work.
Otherwise you will end up like me seeking for help here or to think of way to getting rid of those sticky residue

My experience with suction cup is, it will not hold and easily get loose when it is under a hot sun for quite some time. Maybe due to the suction cup rubber turn harder.
No issue and will not damage the tint....

I am using 128GB Samsung Evo Plus in my X9. So far no issue yet. bought at RM9X @ Shopee. The other you can try is Sandisk Ultra A1.
High Endurace for sure is good, but you have to see the price.

As long as no wire cut. If by the time anything goes wrong and require to claim from SC, then remove everything you install in accessories shop before you go for the claim. They have no reason can know what you did before.

You should ask your SC is the car cigg port is for display only. Cannot use on certain charger? Stupid SC.
Or SC should list out what brand can use what brand cannot use in user manual. It dosen't make sense at all.
