Recommend Me a Dash Cam

[bad company]

I’m taking delivery of a new BMW 440 shortly. I want a dash cam and my installer recommended the Thinkware Q100. Most of the reviews are good but I’m really put off by the review below. I hate bleeps & unnecessary noises in my car.

Any thoughts on a high quality but quiet alternative?


Connect up this camera, go for a drive and you’ll notice that it likes to beep. Initially this was because its g-sensor is too sensitive by default to bumps while you’re driving, so road imperfections would occasionally trigger it. One particular section of the M25 had it going off continuously. Reducing the sensitivity almost completely fixed this, but there was still the annoyance of hearing ‘Please have a safe drive today’ every time I started the I'm taking delivery of a new car shortly

I bought a Thinkware Q1000, so far so good.

I've had their U1000 for a couple of years now and can't fault it. I was annoyed by all the announcements when it starts up, but you just set the volume to zero and you don't here them any more.

I turned all the announcements off, it’s in the menu.
