Your reviews are simply professionally crafted with amazing details for those who understands.
You are 💯 👍. Nice finding out about your channel.
Excellent work Robert.
Thank you for a great review. I have the product that I consider 25 fps for the rear camera to be a bad thing. The image is not smooth and this affects me when driving. I wish it was at least 30 or 60 is better (as a video displayed on the screen and not a recording).
Criminally underrated man, Excellent video!
Absolutely 😂
Thank you so much for such a thorough review! Just to clarify, this records the front and rear simultaneously? I was looking into the Rexing M2, but that one does not record the front and rear at the same time. Thank you.
While driving (normal recording mode), yes it records front 2592x1944 30fps video and rear 1920x1080 25fps rear video. In time-lapse parking mode, the S500 only records front camera video. If collision detection parking mode is enabled and an impact event takes place or the user requests an emergency recording, it will record 30 seconds of front and rear camera video.
@@RetroCarGuy530 Thank you so much! Any options for general motion detection in parking mode? Or only collision detection is provided?
No, the only parking mode options are collision detect and time-lapse.
Thank you. You said, that you managed to install the rear camera on the inside. How did you do that?
Since this was a test installation for the review, I don't like drilling holes in my vehicle unless there is absolutely no other way to get the product installed. At 5:22 in the video, I showed a 3D printed block I created to allow the adhesive pad on the rear camera to mount to that block. The 3D printed block mounted to the inside of the rear tailgate window glass.
This is very nice!
Have a question please
It does have the mirror settings but all it does is the interface flip of the touchscreen, the rear camera (live) shows the mirror/selfie-ish view of the word "stop" for example but when downloaded it is ok, it is non mirrored/flipped and readable. Same for all plate numbers and signs. Is this the same for all dashcams?
The system setting "Mirror Mode" only governs the user interface presentation on the screen. I just checked my S500, running firmware v1.1.23ww, and the rear camera view presented on the screen is presented just as if you were looking in the mirror glass without the screen on (movement on the left rear of the vehicle appears on the left side of the image on the screen). The recorded video is presented in the reverse orientation (movement on the left side of the vehicle is on the right side of the recorded video).
The mirror view will [should] present license plates in reverse order just like a standard center rear view mirror will do. If it presented a reversed video image on the screen, movement of the vehicle (side-to-side) would be presented in the opposite direction potentially causing some disorientation to the driver which is used to having the motion in the center rear view mirror follow the motion of the car (side-to-side).
@@RetroCarGuy530 thanks for taking the time to explain, this is my first dashcam and I considered it because of your very detailed review. So far its realy nice, the rear can be more clearer ( I opted to mount it inside and bought an adaptor for a sturdier installation), I guess it is better to mount it outside but the headlights at night is just so distracting as per other reviews mounting the backup camera outside
Does 70mai dashcams delete the 3minute videos (loop recording) randomly?, I notice in my s500 it already deleted some of yesterdays videos but older videos are still there, weird
I cannot say that I've observed that behavior with my S500.
