Product does not match description

So I bought these mirrors about a year ago and they have been good. built-in front camera and real 12 inches for a great price of 100 euros. So they got greedy and changed the design without changing the Amazon images! So no, the front camera is no longer built-in but slides out on a cheap piece of plastic and the mirror is shorter. and raised the price to $150! WTF! So you sell something good for less and something junk for more? Is that marketing in the East? SO she returned and got another…

  • Inspires confidence
Cons

Great Mirror DVR

DL12 is easy to install, the instructions could be a bit clearer where to change the time and how to set it. The split screen showing front and back is a very cool feature. I had no problem switching back and forth with a swipe of my finger. The mirror portion doesn't have the clarity of a standard mirror, but that's to be expected. I was able to adapt quickly. Setting the technical parameters was quick. Photos and videos with date, speed, location stamp came out very clear, no problem. The…

Perfect fit for my truck.

I've been using the DL12 DVR for a month and so far I'm really enjoying it. I drive a Dodge Ram truck that can be lifted and I need a backup camera that will record both the rear and the front. I really like the touch screen. Easy to install and connect to the cigarette lighter. I wouldn't mind seeing one in the future that could plug directly into a power source instead of the cigarette lighter. I ran out of cord to reach my cigarette lighter so I bought an extension cord. Worked great. I ran…

Great quality and low price

What I liked: Doesn't add bulk to the windshield. Different viewing angles and the ability to record both front and rear (improved field of view than the rear view mirror). Competitors have developed dislikes: it's difficult to get used to seeing the video stream in the rear-view mirror, and I often look in the rear-view mirror while driving to look at myself, and depending on where the second is, you won't can camera is installed. If you have children, you cannot adjust your mirror so that you

Good foresight for the rear image.

The front camera quality is pretty good but the back camera is not so good but it does the job. It copes very well with dark images on the front camera, but the rear camera is a bit grainy in the dark. The brightness controls are easy to use and provide a nice bright picture for the front camera. Records simultaneously, front, back or with separate recordings. With a rear window mounted camera, it gives a nice wide angle to see cars approaching blind spots, which is what I like best. Easy to…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Excellent DVR, very well tuned and discreet compared to other DVRs!

I bought this camera because I didn't like other dashcams that take up a lot of space on your car's dashboard and this one doesn't require any complicated setup such as . Installation was just a matter of inserting an SD card and using the straps provided, which allowed the DSLR to be placed on an existing rear view mirror. The device is also powered via the supplied plug and you just have to hide the cable on the sides of the car so that it is not visible. Aside from the power cord, which is…

Pros
  • Clearer footage when driving at night: Uses the Sony IMX335 Starvis sensor and Hisilicon Hi3556 processor and a 6-disc fixed focus lens, DL12, which delivers excellent video with clear image quality and vivid colors even in starlight.
Cons
  • Update Available

Must have a DVR!

So I had the Akaso DL9 and it was great! I've always been blinded by drivers behind me even when I raise my rearview mirror. After installing the DL9 in my truck, I was no longer blinded by the headlights and could always see what was happening behind me. When I saw AKASO release DL12 I knew I had to try it and I'm glad I did. . So they improved on the original design and fixed some of the flaws that the DL9 had. First of all the DL12 is HUGE, when I first saw it I thought it would somehow not…

Pros
  • Hands free with voice control: Update with voice control from June 2021. Voice commands: screen on/off/video lock/open/close recorder/front/back video/take photo/video recording
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Media management is not up to date.

initial review/evaluation; 1star:Stupid thing says 2K cam video/photo quality is bad! This thing isn't even VGA. I was in no hurry to look for a suitable DVR. I finally went for it after considering their latest model with a 9 or 10 inch screen. This should be better in both video quality and performance. No one! It was a waste of time. First it took me a good 3 hours to cut and solder/route the stupid short cable that connects the rear camera. I don't know if they thought that everyone who…

Pros
  • 2.5K DSLR: The DL12 DSLR offers up to 2.5K (2560 x 1440) Ultra HD video resolution for a clearer front view. And the 1080P rear camera also has more wonderful details than 720P. In addition, the adjustable 170° front lens and 150° rear lens reduce the blind spot and allow you to capture more scenes on the road.
Cons
  • sparse instructions

Fantastic product / not so great customer support experience

For its price range, this is the best. Controlling the Falcon device was very problematic until luckily it died. DL20 is much better! But first experiences with the product and customer support can make all the difference in reviews. I have a 2015 RAV4. I felt like 21 feet of backup camera wire would be enough to get to the mirror. I was wrong as 6ft was eaten up just to run the cable from the hatch to the rear floor. So I ended up 4 feet shorter. This connection is a TRRS cable. Should be easy

Pros
  • GPS module included: comes with a GPS module that helps record real-time location, current driving distance and driving speed. Reliable proof of when the traffic accident happened.
Cons
  • Big and chunky
