  • Amazing!
The quality is plain amazing, day and night. Easy to install, small and perfect. The only problem is I am having trouble connecting it to my phone so I use an SD card reader & watch everything on my laptop, so no biggie. Anyway VERY impressed. I will be getting a second for my back.

  • Great price and quality for a built-in WiFi dashcam!
Relatively user friendly device and app compared to my two previous (different brand) comparable dashcams. I like this Kenwood much better! The magnetic attachment is a very nice feature. Quality video, strong suction, perfect strength magnet. Update 01/2023: It takes only about 30 seconds to download a one minute video from the dash cam. I must’ve had cell service issues the first time I downloaded a video. I still love this product for the price. Best bang for the buck ... show more

  • Works with, or without the phone app.
You can use this dash cam without downloading the app to your phone. The camera saves video to a SD card, which can be read from your computer. The app isn't the greatest, kind of slow and clunky to use, so I doubt I'll be using it much at all.

  • Great Dash Cam For The Price
My wife purchased a really cheap dash cam for me after we had an unfortunate incident on the interstate with a truck tire that came loose from an 18 wheeler. Only a few thousand dollars in damages and no one was hurt. But, it would have been nice to have a video for the insurance company. That being said, the cam my wife bought failed within the first year. So, my initial purchase of this brand was at a local big box store. I was so impressed with it that I ordered another one for my second vehicle from Amazon. The one from Amazon cost less than the one I bought locally. I love the features. There is an app for your cell phone that lets you download videos directly from the dash cam without having to remove the memory card. Glad I got them. At this price point, I think this dash cam has all the features of more expensive models. ... show more

  • Absolutely horrible!!!!!
This Dash cam is too complicated for its own good. It’s a dang camera for crying out loud. I was in an accident and could not even pull up the video and then when I finally did it was all screwed up and it was brand new so now I have to take the accident to court and subpoena witnesses… just this morning I had a guy cut me off and I almost slammed into them and I finally got the app to get the video but it’s like these people do not use their own product. It is so difficult to find the video and then, when you do connect your phone, it’s like a 15 step process to get it back to normal dash cam mode. It is a joke, I highly recommend not getting this at all and it is too late for me to return it because I did not install it in time !! The magnetic charging port is a joke, and it’s stupid that they have a special charger that is unique when you know dang well it should either be a USB or a c type!! This hunk of junk. Also does not show your speed until you revert back and try and find the video. It’s all around a piece of crap.!!! You think since it’s a Kenwood it would be good but it’s absolutely horrible. You’re better off just buying a phone and sticking your phone up on the dash. ... show more

  • Well made and easy to use
I’ve had a few different dash cams but they were always sketchy in performance and awkward to program. But I was so impressed with this dash cam that I purchased a second one for my other car.

  • Essential for every commuter
I like the fact that I do not need an app to have this device work. It is very clear for day and night vision. The microphone is clear to pick up a lot more then I was expecting. The GPS is accurate to the speed of the car. Very easy to install, the length of the wires are long enough for a car or truck to make inconspicuous. Not worth $180, but I got mine on sale and it was worth the price I paid. ... show more

  • It does work, seems like older tech
I have it working fine, the price was right. However, I was expecting something a little less clunky technology wise. It feels like something from 2012, but again, it works and the price was right.
