Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Excellent
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would buy another one if I needed it. This camera is great in all looks, performance, and construction. I've had it for over two months now and I am very pleased with it. The picture is outstanding during the day and excellent during the night time. The screw is big enough to review your videos if necessary, but for the full HD enjoyment, you have to use a computer or TV. The warning features such as stop sign recognition, lane changing, and driver fatigue alert, could be annoying at times, but you can turn all that stuff off. I got one for me and one for my wife's car. If you want and unbias witness of your accident, or just want to record the scenery of your upcoming road trip, this camera is sure to do the job, and do it well.

good little camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Has nice clear picture, stop sign feature, is great when it works right. Does not always warn you of every stop sign. Will warn you to stop going down the highway. I am a shuttle driver and i am on the road most of the day, a 32 gb card is not enough.

Posted .Thank you for your positive feedback on our product! The team here at Papago is thrilled to hear that you’re happy with the dashcam and its features. This model supports up to 64GB card. So feel free to get a bigger card which will double your recording time before it loops over the old footage. We suggest to use card from Kingston, Adata, Trancend, and Patriot. Select class 10 card.

No cons
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a great dashcam. The video quality is great, it shuts off automatically when you unplug it (I wish it did when the truck turned off but I think it has to be hard wired to do that), and it's way smaller than I thought it was going to be.

What experts are saying
Q: Questioncan you turn volume off so its not recording your conversation in the car ?
Asked by landscaper.
- A:Answer Very simple to do. While the machine is on, select the down button to enter into the "setting" mode. Then scroll to the Microphone option with the down/up button and select by pressing the "Ok" button. Then you get the option to turn On or Off the microphone. I highly recommend the microphone setting to be ON at all time if your intention is to record evidence of your driving and of others. The microphone can also work as evidence whenever you get pulled over and you use it in court, you will have video and voice recorded evidence. In an incident/accident, the voice recording will add more value to your evidence (or the opposite if it is your fault, which you may delete). The microphone feature in this device is the feature that made me purchase this PAPAGO! One of the main reasons for all dash cams is to have proof/evidence and this will work well you don't have a witness that view the incident.

Q: QuestionIs this camera heatproof? Will it sit in the car in the Florida summer?
Asked by Brandy.
- A:Answer Sat in my car parked in the sun all summer. No glitches. Make sure u don’t get a generic SD card though, SanDisk and Samsung are pretty much the only options. I tried Lexar before and the videos glitched pretty bad and I figured out it was the SD card, not the DashCam.

Q: QuestionI see that the camera comes with an 8GB microSD card. How much video can be saved/stored on it?
Asked by Jeremy.
- A:Answer Hi Jeremy, How much recording time is dependent on the settings that you have your dashcam set to. An estimation I can give you with a dashcam set to 1920x1080 9mbps (HD Standard) with an 8GB micro SD card will get you approximately 120 minutes.
