Review on πŸŽ₯ GiiNii GD-160720P DashCamVideo Camera with 2.7-Inch LED Backlit in Royal Blue/Black by Byron Forman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Decent starter camera, does not recognize license plate letters/numbers

I bought this Shopko Dash Cam for $49.99 and was very skeptical as there was no review anywhere on the internet. So I hope this review helps others. This camera is a very well designed DVR with easy to press buttons. Menu navigation is much easier than the G1W I had before. The mount is well designed but was very disappointed to find out it was a 1/8" plastic screw that actually screws into the camera, very cheap in my opinion. In terms of video quality, it's decent during the day. vehicles, but that's all. It can't read license plates, so that's a HUGE red flag in my book. At night he sees nothing at all. maybe 5 feet in front of you (and I installed it on an F150 with HID lights). Bottom Line: If you're looking to buy your own DVR and don't care about all the details it "should" capture, then this DVR might be good enough for you. I will return this and promise to buy a more expensive camera than the G1W. then you might be satisfied with this DVR.
