Honestly the more videos I download off my hp m500 the more disappointed I'm at in the video quality. Might look at the viofo mt1 or innovv k3 one day.

My m500 videos are ok2 in the day and blurry at best at night. Also due to naked bike the wind noise is captured quite strongly.

Lol

You are comparing a rm600 product Vs rm1200 product

I was using a rm1xx product before using hp m500.
I'm very happy with the hp.

Place your remote somewhere where the wind is blocked by the meter probably. Or add a small windshield. Yeah the video is ok-ok only at beat, number plate beyond 5 meters are pretty much illegible.

No choice, because there really isn't that many models for motorcycle dashcam. If want to compare same price, Rm500 motorcycle dashcam vs rm500 car dashcam, the video quality difference is heaven and earth.

Does anyone have experience using Akaso Brave 6 Plus? Or Red Buffalo Storm? Looking for action cameras priced at less than RM600. Audio isn't really an issue, just need the visuals to be clear enough to see the license plates. Thx...

If you are looking at this range.
Top up a bit.
You can consider scam sj8 pro.
Good video quality.

Reliable.
I was using this daily ( ride motorbike to work) and on weekends I use it when I MTB.
Was using it for about 4 years plus before retiring it.

To be honest, top up even more and just get a used gopro 8 and above if possible.

might as well say top up a bit more and get a brand new Insta360 One RS.
and top up a little bit more and get DJI OA3, and top up a bit more can the brand new DJI OA4.

I have the Akaso 7 v2. Cheap under 600. But it crapped out on me completely after 1 year. Audio was crap...bordering on unusable. Visuals are ok. Stabilizatio not the greatest but decent.

Spend more and buy a better action cam.

You'll get used to it

My full face helmet weigh about 1500g only.
Light.
But with the camera mounted on it. Can feel the weight difference. But I got used to it.

Can use a chest mount
But for daily use, leceh.
Hence I just mount it on my helmet.

However when I MTB I'll use this chest mount to get the actual feel through the video

Haha...the atom is front heavy. Adding a camera on the chin bar gets it even more unbalanced. That's probably your issue.... Not the overall weight.

I used the atom for like 6months....it's been in storage since .....

yeah... putting the cam on the chin bar started to give me massive headaches whereas before that i was fine.

even without the camera attached n just the mounting on it.. it already gave me headaches...

jual laaaaaaa.... i sold my 4-5 yr old Atom SV for like RM150 je.... today post in whatsapp group.. 2 hours later sold lol....just wanted to get rid of it... never really liked that helmet even before i put the mount on.
