Review on Blackvue DR590W 2CH 16GB Dual Full HD Wi-Fi Dashcam: Keeping You Safe on the Road by Chris Hunt

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not a bad camera but a few flaws

The picture quality is excellent although I couldn't see what it looks like at night. But the camera itself has a few weaknesses that I don't like that much. The original Samsung 128GB SD card that I bought to make the most of the storage didn't work in the camera. When installed, the camera repeatedly prompted you to "Check SD card". The camera only seemed satisfied after the included 32GB SD card was installed. You also need to manually turn on Wi-Fi to connect your phone to it so you can watch videos or download them to your memory card. Apparently, Wi-Fi is disabled by default every time the power is turned on along with the ignition. It would be nice if there was a mechanism to save settings after shutdown. Overall, however, this camera easily suits the intended user.

Pros
  • Great general specs
Cons
  • Hard to say
