REXINGV1 Basic Dash Cam 1080P FHD DVR Car Driving Recorder, 2.4" LCD Screen 170°Wide Angle, G-Sensor, WDR, Parking Monitor, Loop Recording

Originally Purchased a Rexing Dashcam for my wife's car as a mother days gift about 3 years ago. We live in texas where it gets extremely hot inside vehicles during the summer. It's held up very well and works very well and still works great. We like the video quality, features and functionality it offers. Easy to use too. We liked it so much I purchased this one for my car. I'd recommend it to others

I have been running this dashcam in my vehicle for nearly 3 years. I have not had any issues with the heat, as we live in the extreme heat of Arizona. It has come in handy a couple of times to document interesting things while driving. This product has done me so well that I ordered two more units to put in the rest of our vehicles. One of the units was in a rollover accident (was t-boned and vehicle flipped) and came out unscathed and aided with insurance purposes. I would say these are virtually indestructible. If you are looking for a well made inexpensive solution, then this is your cam.

In the daytime license plates and streets can be made out just fine, but night quality you'll have to be up close to make out plate numbers. Installation wasn't difficult. I've installed it with the hardwire kit too that I purchased separately. It's only about $50 and the picture quality is pretty good during the daytime. Night time not so much, but not terrible. If you want to add a rear camera, you'll have to buy the higher model as you can't just add a rear camera to this model although it's basically the same. There's also on screen menu to navigate through your options and video files which may be a good thing for you as some other brands require you to use their own apps w/o a screen and connect through wi-fi to access the camera.

Works great and lasts

Nothing but problems since Day One. Then a few months in, the battery stopped charging so it couldn’t keep track of time or its files properly. We kept using it because at least it was still recording. Then just the other day I discovered that it hadn’t actually been recording anything for the last 9 months, because according to the display there wasn’t room on the card…which is ridiculous, because it’s supposed to automatically record over the oldest files. We had a situation where we really needed its evidence, but it let us down miserably. This thing has been a monumental disappointment.

They keep coming out with newer higher resolution dash cams with more do-dads in them but for me, this model is all I need, and I having been using it for years for a number of my cars. I just bought a few more for gifts.My daughter especially liked it, since she was responsible for an accident a few years ago and was too embarrassed to speak to the insurance agent about it. I asked the agent if they would like the dash cam footage, she eagerly said yes, and my daughter did not need to speak to the insurance company.

Only complaint is it don’t pick up license plates unless your pulled close to a car. Was an issue when I needed plate info for a hit and run, but the guy was caught, so it worked out.

I have the V1p on my wife's car with the front and rear camera and it has some more features like wifi for viewing on the app but the V1 is cheap and gets the job done. I don't need to review footage very often thankfully but my computer has a micro SD slot so it's an easy transfer for review. The most challenging part is the hardwire install but not absolutely necessary if you have a spare 12v outlet (included with camera). You need to buy your own micro SD card and it accepts up to 256mb which will record approx 13hrs at 1080 resolution. Cera automatically writes over oldest videos when card is full. Easy, no hassle and you'll be thankful you spend the $50 if you ever need to set the record straight.
