RRP £99

There are a lot of Dash Cams on the market, and they’re all roughly the same, right? Wrong. The Nextbase 322GW Dash Cam has a whole series of new features that we were wowed by (and we see a lot of dash cams!) At £99, this camera is no impulse purchase, but some of its new features could actually save your life.

When it comes to Dash Cams you can opt for cheap and cheerful but it is worth remembering why you are purchasing one in the first place, they provide you with crucial detailed evidence and security.

The Nextbase Mirror Dash Cam aims to minimise clutter in your field of vision by integrating the camera and screen into the already existing part of your car, the rear-view mirror. This mirror can be attached to all sizes of existing mirror via five suction cups which hold it securely in place, it also features a backup strap mounting for belt and braces. The Mirror has a lightweight design and an inbuilt 6G Glass lens that records at 1080p HD, it has a 140° wide viewing angle to capture everything that’s going on ahead of you in the road.

I recently had the pleasure of having my car decluttered by a member of the local community. What I mean by that is someone lobbed a can of beer through my passenger window and stole my DAB radio, pot of change and sunglasses. Though funnily enough they left my thermal and waterproof boots which were more valuable than the other items put together.

The 412GW Dash Cam from Nextbase features QUAD HD 1440p recording, which delivers images at 30 frames per second with a high frame rate option of 60fps recording at full 1080p HD. It uses six-element sharp lenses, made up of six layers of glass to provide excellent picture clarity, and it has a 140° viewing angle. It attaches via the new Click & Go magnetic mount, making it easy to install; the mount uses magnets and powered touch points, allowing the camera itself to be free from wires and therefore be easy to remove when you leave the car.
