I’ve reviewed dozens of dash cams over the years, but none quite as cheap as the Dash Cam Front and Rear Wireless, which I snapped up at Amazon for £19.99, and is available from Amazon US for around $20. Dash cams mostly sit between $120 / £100 and $250 / £200, with the occasional tech-packed flagship crossing the $350 / £300 barrier.
Loaded to their suction cups with features like speed camera alerts and suites of driver assistance tech, they often promise to do much more than simply record video, yet often struggle to fully deliver on every promise. All too often, I wish they would just keep things simple, stick to the basics, and deliver the perfect dash cam experience without the bells and whistles.
