Great camera for the price. I've used this dash camera in multiple vehicles during the 3 years of owning it, and it has never failed me, from 102 summers to -3 f winters (quite reliable). It captures great video, and at night as well; the app to watch and review videos is actually quite pleasant to use. I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for a great option. The installation is a breeze. The mounting arm is pretty good as well;l it fits multiple angles for differentplacements, and is fairly adjustable ... show more

  • so far so good =SEE EDIT FOR SOME GUIDANCE IF YOU EXPERIENCE CHOPPY VIDEO PLAYBACK=
i'm writing this review on my literal day 1 of owning the camera and only just now finished installing it in my car. (the pic attached is from when i had JUST turned it on while i was in the passenger seat and was still fiddling with the angle. I also blocked out the location coordinates, but thats something you can toggle off in the settings as well) the setup is simple. there are tons of quick short videos to help guide you on how you might want to tuck away the wiring. you just plug it into the car charging socket (you can also hard wire it into your car if you're knowledgeable and comfortable doing so) i read the booklet that came with it. a lot of useful info in it. Tons of features and settings you can use to customize it to what suits you best. i like that it has 'parking mode' which means the camera will automatically turn on and record for a bit if it detects a sudden impact/movement while the car is parked (and while you are presumably away). i experienced ended up testing this while i was carrying the dashcam with my hands full. i accidentally dropped the camera, and even though it was off, it suddenly turned on and stating something along the lines of "parking mode has been activated". It started recording, but since i didn't fully charge it at the time, it only stayed on for a few seconds (which is normal for these type of dash cams. The manual states that the camera typically should be able to sustain a recording of 3-5 minutes on a fully charged battery). I also tried the app. it lets you view/download your footage in real-time by connecting to the dashcam's built-in wifi. i HIGHLY recommend downloading the newer beta app (which currently has an all orange UI. the old app hasn't been updated since 2019 and had tons of negative feedback, so i didn't even bother with that). I think the app is a nice benefit. It's nice if you need to quickly share a photo or footage of what just happened on the road, but you don't have the time or ability to connect the dashcam to a computer or other device. and you do this by connecting to the dashcam's BUILT-IN wifi. you don't have to do anything special or complicated to set it up. it's pretty self explanatory. BTW If you have any trouble connecting to the app, you might have to disable mobile data on your phone to properly connect). I'll be sure to update this review if anything comes up that greatly impacts my impression on the product, but so far i'm satisfied. I'll be sure to take care of this one (my last dashcam stopped functioning properly because i would leave it in the car 24/7, even during extreme summer heat or extreme winter cold). ===EDIT 4-10-22=== i've owned this for a few weeks now. I recently decided to hook it up to my pc to check on the videos, just to make sure video/audio were being captured properly and that there were no issues. i was pretty horrified at first to see that the videos seemed really glitchy/choppy. it was practically unwatchable! i did some quick googling and saw some people suggest it could be the framerate/resolution that it's recording in. and then i remembered that the instruction manual mentioned using a decent video player- specifically something like VLC. so that's what i did. I already use VLC for other things on my pc, so i opened some videos in it. no more choppy/jittery video! everything was smooth and amazing! So, in short, if you're noticing that your videos appear choppy and strange i'd suggest either playing back your videos in something like VLC and NOT your basic windows media player. It'd also be worth it to maybe try lowering the camera's FPS/resolution settings if that still doesn't work for you (Although I would say lowering the quality should probably be a last resort... since, you know, the whole point of a dashcam is so that you can capture everything on the road in perfect quality) the only gripe i have now is that the dashcam itself seems to slightly shake/jitter when driving at certain speeds/roads. I think this is a result of the cars vibrations. I'll try to see if this'll be fixed by tightening the mount or repositioning it a little. it's possible that we just didn't have it locked in properly (I haven't been the one personally driving with the webcam lately. So maybe my family members flubbed on that) It's nothing too crazy, though. Still happy with this device! very worth it! ==final edit 7-21-22=== it's been 4 months since i owned it and its STILL incredible i've even connected to it to share a clip of a dicey moment i had on the highway! (i did this by connecting to my pc. the app is still an amazing option to connect remotely/on the spot, but i was already at my pc anyways) i wanted to take a moment to commend their support team as well. i recently contacted support because i somehow managed to push the power button in so far that it got stuck. i was surprised that this happened! this made it difficult to turn the camera on/off at will. i contacted their support team directly after finding their email on their website. i described the issue, provided picture evidence & proof of purchase, then they were able to process a replacement as it was still under warranty! the entire process was smooth and hasslefree. it didnt take very long at all for the replacement to come in. i customized the settings and took some video footage + photos as a test. Everything was perfect. I didn't have to wait long at all for their replies/solution (something i was extremely wary of after dealing with support teams from other products/services) Anyways, I support this brand/small team VERY much! I think its VERY important to have a dashcam. Even if u don't feel comfortable hot-wiring or whatever, i feel that even a USB/car charger-type of cam is better than nothing-- like i said, i've already reviewed & shared footage to friends & family at least once after having a spooky moment on the highway. It's not only good for urself, but others as well. U never kno wat could happen. Video doesnt lie. ur footage/photos could do a lot to help u or even a stranger if u ever come across a sticky situation. ... show more

  • Wish They Provided An SD Card To Be Able To Use It Right Out The Box
Price has come down significantly for this model making it worth it especially because it has really great video resolution. I won't try to repeat what dozens of other people have already said over and over. Currently installing a different brand Dash Cam on my other vehicle that was gifted to me. The settings on the other one are 100% controlled by its app making me appreciate this one on that feature. (The reason that can get annoying is because you also have to connect to Dash Cams through Wi-Fi as well in order to access them through their apps). This one has buttons and a menu letting you control 90% of everything through its screen making it extremely first time user friendly. You don't have to connect to the Rove app if you don't want to in order to change a setting within this Rove Dash Cam making it fast in this feature. You can also silence this one completely which I really like. Others, you can only turn down the volume and will make tones every time I record, screenshot, or other. I want the dash cam to be incognito and not make sounds. I may not want people to know its there. The only cons I have are no rear camera is included and no SD memory card. The rear camera might not be essential for most, but the memory card is. It will not work without a memory card since it needs a place to store the videos/files. I'm a first time purchaser and user of a Dash Cam. The memory card is an added cost on top of whatever you paid to get this Dash Cam. (Remember, you cannot use a regular SD card like from your phone because it has to be able to handle fast constant overwrites on existing files/videos.) If you've already had Dash Cams before, this may not be a big deal because you most likely already have at least one high performance SD card. Overall its a great Dash Cam and Rove is known for their quality (likely the reason for their higher prices). Would I buy it again? Absolutely without hesitation. I've had this one for a few months now and so far no issues. ... show more

  • Still going strong!
*** 3 year update - far out, where did that 3 years go?? I blinked and missed it 😔 ... Anyway, It's been 3 years and this camera still functions fine. The built in battery that powers the camera briefly while parked doesn't hold a charge as long as it did when new. It will power the camera for about 30 seconds (+/-) as a standalone power source if the camera is set to detect impacts while parked. If you have the power supply offered by Rove this won't be an issue. I've been extremely happy with this camera. For the money I couldn't have asked for more! This will most likely be the last update as I'm sure you're tired of reading this review by now 😁. It's an awesome camera, just buy it, you won't be disappointed! In closing, stay safe out there, be well, and live life to its fullest! *** *** 2 year update - Well, here we are 2 years after purchasing this camera. It's scary how fast time flies! I don't have a lot to add to my original review. The camera still functions perfectly and I'm still very satisfied with my purchase. I download a short video to my phone every few months just to make sure the camera, memory card, app, and wifi still function properly, and I glance up at the camera when I start the vehicle just to make sure it's recording for each trip. I still use the original app available for the camera, and the Samsung memory card that was recommended and purchased with the camera at the time of my original review. I notice now that Rove is recommending other types of memory card, and there have been app upgrades since, but I'm not going to mess with a good thing so I'll keep everything as it is. Overall I have been more then satisfied with my Rove experience. If/when this one eventually fails I will not hesitate to purchase another one, so Rove, please don't stop making this camera! *** ========================= Original unedited review.... I purchased this camera at an Amazon "Prime Day" price. I also purchased a Samsung Evo Select (Class 10-U3) 168gb micro sd card at the same time as one isn't supplied with the camera. I have been using the camera for about 4 weeks at the time of this review. This is a nice, small, unobtrusive, dashcam. It appears, and feels, to be built from quality materials. It comes with a couple of different brackets for mounting. The double sided tape mounting bracket was the best option for my '07 Jeep Wrangler due to the near vertical windshield. The suction mount, when mounted nearly vertical, held the lens almost right on the glass. I mounted mine to the plastic trim above the windshield with the supplied tape mount where it's perfectly stable and holds the lens a couple of inches from the windshield. The instruction booklet supplied with the camera is well written and easy to follow. There are also several "how to" video tutorials available on the Rove website which go into detail of the operation, setup, and button shortcuts available on this camera. The camera's onboard menu's are easy to follow and navigate. There is even voice guidance with each button press which is in clear english, in a female voice. That's just plain cool at this price point! With even basic knowledge of electronic gadgets, setup is straight forward and can be completed in about 10 minutes or less. If after reading the included instruction booklet, and viewing the video tutorials, you still have questions, concerns, or problems, a text or an email sent to Rove is quickly answered in a kind, informative, and professional manner. My own initial questions (via text) were answered in less than 3 minutes, and it was on a Sunday. It's also refreshing that the technicians are based right here in the USA in Chicago! This camera's video quality is outstanding! Although you can view the videos on the screen of the camera just be aware that the screen is very small and pixelated. It's not a fault, it's there if you need it, or want to use it, and it functions as it should, but don't expect full HD video results on a 2 inch screen. Pulling the sd card and viewing on a computer, or a quick download to my Android phone (after installing the free app) using the built in wifi results in a high quality HD video that can be viewed by, or shared with anyone. At 1080p@60fps, with the 168gb Samsung Evo Select micro sd card that I chose, a 1 minute video (157mb) can be downloaded via wifi to my old Samsung Galaxy S8 in under a minute, and a 3 minute video (464mb) in roughly 2.5 minutes. I haven't found a need to operate my camera above 1080p@60fps yet but at that resolution videos, when viewed on my phone, are sharp and clear with bright natural colors, and without glitches or twitches. I am more than satisfied with the video quality and camera performance on bright sunny days, nighttime, and on rainy or overcast days. It has been used in all of those conditions already and performed above my expectations. Although nothing new, this camera has a very sensitive built in microphone that records audio to the video. Thankfully It can be permanently disabled in the settings menu if you wish. Again, it is VERY sensitive. I've left mine on but am mindful of what I say outloud these days. All I hear in the videos unless I'm on the phone, conversing with a passenger, or accidentally muttering an obscenity at another driver, is the radio when it's on, the hum of my offroad tires, and large bugs smacking the windshield. A simple button push, the up button (^) on mine, enables a quick toggle on or off of the mic, or as mentioned before you can disable it completely in the settings menu. The mic is very useful during traffic stops, or road rage incidents, where people are close enough to the vehicle to be heard so I leave mine on and only toggle it off if I don't want audio recorded at that moment. I can't report on longevity or lifespan of the camera yet as I've only had it for a month, but so far I have experienced zero issues. The camera comes with a 12 month factory warranty, and I purchased a 3 year protection plan through Amazon (Asurion) at the same time I purchased the camera. The protection plan rides on the back of the factory warranty for the first twelve months, then acts as a true extended warranty for the remaining two years. I'm covered for any unforeseen mechanical issues, or faults, for 3 years so I'm happy. Having this camera provides peace of mind, and an added sense of security, in the event something does happen in future while driving and I need an unbiased, honest, witness to the event. I have already recommended this camera to friends and family members. There are better cameras out there I'm sure, but at this price point you are getting a lot of camera for your money! I have attached a couple of photos of the camera mounted in my vehicle, and two screen shots grabbed from video to give an idea of nighttime and heavy rain camera ability. ... show more

  • Great Value, Excellent Customer Support
For the money, this is a great product. I would strongly recommend new users thoroughly read the manual and any of the information cards that come with the dash cam to include formatting the memory card BEFORE you set it up. The ROVE people are pretty on top of providing everything you would need to set up the dash cam, including a tool to help you place the cable behind the rubber gaskets on your windshield. I was also impressed with their making you aware that if you have side air bags, you should follow their recommendation to hide the cable in such a way so that it will not interfere if the air bag deploys in an accident. Also, if you are setting it up away from your car, do not connect the USB to your computer. Rather, use the cable they provide and any of the charging station items you would use for your phone. Remember to turn on the Local Networks button on your phone's Rove Dash Cam app. If you don't do that, the dash cam will not recognize your smart phone and you will keep getting failure screens. That was my mistake, but once I switched it on the WIFI connection worked like a charm. So, read the instructions, format your memory card before you do anything else, and check with your local laws and ordinances as to the best legal location for the camera on your windshield. Usually, it's best to "hide" it behind your rear view mirror - if you cannot see the camera when you are in the driver's seat, then you should be ok, but you should check your local laws just to make sure. Customer support is also excellent. When I was having issues with the WIFI I reached out to tech support - they responded pretty quickly, but I had already resolved the issue. Still, it was great to see how responsive they were if my problem continued. Bottom line, this is a great value for your money, and a good product to have in your car in this day and age. ... show more

  • FANTASTIC CAM!!!
This camera is clear and it is easy to use once you get to know what each button does. I sat down and read the book that came with it way before using it so that I could get a good understanding of everything. The video provided is at default settings, so I haven't even set it to 4K yet and it is this clear. I do recommend the 128 Samsung 10 class u3 SD card for it as it records without freezing. I haven't had any problems, but if I do, I will post an update. So far so good though. I can't comment on the app yet because I haven't used it, but when I do I will update. Also, I haven't used the player yet either, but I did download it for Mac, so it is Mac and PC compatible. Once I use these features, I will update again. Update (2/15/2019): I finally used the app and it seemed to work well for me. It was very easy to connect to and I was able to see my videos. I can't figure out how to use the player though. I thought if I insert the sd card to my computer, it would read from the video player and show me the data, but that wasn't the case. If anyone figures out how to do this, please let me know. Also, I have integrated the camera into my video, meaning that I bought a kit so that I could plug it into the fuse box for a direct power source. I like the fact that it was easy to do and it now turns off the minute that the vehicle is turned off. The only time it will turn back on is if you have parking mode on, but it shuts off about 3 minutes after it has recorded an impact while parked ( i tested it by shaking my vehicle, I did not get hit). When I turned my vehicle back on, it spoke to me and said, "parking mode was activated," so I knew right away that I needed to check what happened (of course, this was only a test though). Anyway, so far so good and the video is fantastic. When I learn to work with the player, I will update again. :) Update (12-18-2019) So I figured out everything and so far so good. I ended up buying another one because my son wanted one just like it. He loved how easy it was and the updates that Rove puts out for the cam. They also contacted us when we ordered it. They just said that if we needed anything they would be more than happy to speak to us over the phone with a live agent. What a live agent! They were very nice. I have not had a problem with this cam at all and I do recommend it to others. I just saw that they are having a sale on their website for it, so I might buy another one for my husband. Can you say Christmas gift :) They have a 25% off code on the website. I believe it is ROVEVIP25 to get 25% off. Anyway, this is a great dashcam and I couldn't have asked for more. I am a loyal customer! ... show more

They both look brand new but the lenses simply failed. They still record but the image is now blank on the screen and card.

  • Decent camera with expected drawbacks.
I've had the camera for a few months now, and it honestly works just fine. This review is mostly intended to talk about some of the concerns that I'm sure many other people have already discussed. Pros: 1. The camera was very easy to install right out of the box. The instructions are clear and comprehensive, and I had the camera running in less than 5 minutes. 2. The picture quality is pretty good. Like I mentioned, the detail does drop off at a distance, but honestly that's to be expected. It's a dashcam - you're not going to be filming 4k movies with it. 3. I like that I don't have to do anything with it. I turn my car on, it turns on. I turn my car off, it turns off. Does exactly what it's supposed to. 4. For the camera, it's a good value for the price. Cons: 1. It's very weird that in 2023 they're using an obsolete charging cable. It comes with a ~10 ft long mini-USB charging cable. Mind you, that's "mini," not "micro." If I had to hazard a guess, it's to make it harder to replace without going through their company, but I'll get to that in Con #2. This is also very minor, but it bends at a 90 degree angle from the camera, which is totally fine - but the orientation of the charging port causes it to bend "up," which is a little odd. 2. To address the elephant in the room: the SD card. I have experienced the dreaded "Memory card is too slow. Please contact us" message multiple times in the few months I've owned it. I read the disclaimers. I saw their instructions. I ignored them. Here's the thing: it's very bad business practice to tell people "Hey, you know the most reliable, well-known, and reputable suppliers of SD cards? Don't use those. Instead, use ours which cost twice as much." (Looking at you, Apple) In their description, they will use terms like "not genuine" or "third-party" to describe other companies that make SD cards (such as Samsung). I'm sorry, Rove, but YOU'RE the third-party here when it comes to technology products. I took great care to ensure that the memory card I purchased met the exact recommended specifications, while admittedly ignoring them requesting I purchase their brand. If they happen to read this: I would have bought your card if it wasn't literally twice as expensive. It kind of feels like a shill: invent a problem (annoying message) and sell people the solution (buy OUR card). All of that being said, if you get this message and have an SD card that actually meets their recommended specs: turn off the camera by hand and turn it back on. Problem solved. ... show more
