Review on DVR Roadgid Blick GPS WIFI, 2 cameras, black by Vinay Verma ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Expectations were not met, average quality.

Bought this item the other day. I can’t call it a mirror, which I’m going to talk about later. I immediately checked the work on my knees and ated all the firmware. Everything worked great and ated. The quality of the picture from the cameras pleasantly surprised me. I was going to do a complete installation in a car, since a lot of effort is not required for this, except for the wiring for the rear view camera. But as soon as I turned off the screen and tried to see something in this device, as in an ordinary rear-view mirror, I was completely disappointed: it seemed to me that the mirror was sealed with a matte film, although I removed it before installation. I began to carefully understand and realized that in this "mirror" I simply did not see ANYTHING from what was happening behind the car. To clarify, I will clarify: for many years I have been using an overhead mirror of the well-known Japanese company Broadway and I just got used to the fact that I can see everything perfectly, even small details, in the rear window of the car and in the dead zone, because. I have a spherical Broadway with an anti-reflective coating and one and a half times longer than the regular one, which allows me to perfectly view everything that happens behind the car. Of course, this spoiled me a little, but the safety is worth it. But in the purchased Roadgid Blick device, NOTHING is visible. The rear tint didn't get in the way of my Broadway overhead mirror at all, and in the case of the Roadgid Blick, it was almost opaque to the eye. I tried to compare the reflection in Roadgid Blick with a regular mirror and again not in favor of Roadgid. I was very upset, but I had to take it back to the store on the same day and purchase a CARCAM Q6 DVR with two cameras. Yes - the latter does not have parking assistance, but it has two advantages: it does not interfere with rear visibility and is mounted on a magnetic quick-release holder, which is important for parking in areas with an unhealthy criminal situation (car thieves, unfortunately, due to the general poverty of our population , do not get smaller) the assortment of purchases is a confirmation of this.

Pros
  • Well put together. Well packaged. Excellent shooting quality. Clear instructions. Technical support and an excellent website of the manufacturer. Easy firmware ate. Support for 128GB memory card. There is a mobile phone application for downloading files and changing some settings. When the screen is off, the clock on the mirror lights up. A fairly simple but reliable installation of the head unit on a standard car mirror. Everything you need for installation is included in the kit.
Cons
  • How a mirror does NOT work from the word AT ALL! Those. when installing this device, you get an excellent DVR and parking assistant, but you lose the interior rear-view mirror.
