I have been using Rexing dash cams since 2015. The cameras from 2015 are still working. I decided to upgrade. I have been using this camera for a little over a month now.
Pros:
1. Compact – The camera is installed on the windshield. It is not significant to interfere with driving.
2. 4K video – The video quality is excellent.
3. Built-in GPS – This camera does not require external GPS.
4. Wide angle – This camera has a wide angle. It captures all the way from one side to the other.
5. PC Software shows GPS location on a map and speeds. The phone app is good.
Cons:
1. WIFI does not stay on all the time. The WIFI turns off every time the camera restarts. It does not connect to the phone all the time.
2. The GPS does not set the time automatically. I must manually select a time zone and DST for the time to be accurate.
3. The quality of the LCD screen on the camera is low.
I contacted Rexing support and asked about my WIFI and GPS. Rexing support responded quickly and provided the following response:
WIFI does not stay on all the time. You need to turn it on whenever you want to access a file that the dashcam has recorded. Otherwise, it will remain off. You can press and hold the REC button for five seconds as a shortcut to turning on WIFI. GPS automatically sets the time but not the time zone. You should only need to set the time zone once.
For me, Wifi, time, and LCD are not an issue. I am more concerned about the reliability and video quality; therefore, I bought Rexing. I recommend this camera. I bought one more for the rear window.

After trying different models of multiple brands I believe this camera provides the best value and quality for this price range.
I’ve had the camera for 4 months now and hasn’t skipped a beat, no issues related to the SD card errors which I experienced with other cameras or any video quality related issues.
Configuration is pretty simple with several different resolutions and fps to choose from including 1080p 60fps or 2160p 30fps which is what I settled for consuming about 10GB of space per hour
Video is very clear even at night considering the price. You won’t be disappointed

Great video quality, many features, priced right. It would be nice to get some extra (3 -4 pierces) 3m tape. The 4k dashcam videos looks great on my 4k laptop screen. Microphone records clear audio as well. FYI, the videos are encoded as H.265 (4k) so they will not play properly on a chromebook, which utilizes H.264. You will need to convert it. No problem on a windows laptop though.

When I saw this on sale. Did not think twice as most other dashcam with just very basic features either same or more expensive price. As long as it will do its job to record events while driving. Price was great! Quality great for the price and glad I bought it. I recommend.

Bought two for Christmas. It stated it TWICE that a 32 gig sd card is included, I contacted the live chat agent, he insisted that my order did not include an sd card, I sent him a link, told him where the information was listed, and he still insisted that it did not come with an sd card.

This is a great dash cam with very good quality video. The screen is not the best quality but once you download the video to your phone’s Rexing app it’s amazing.

Good if on sale. Picture quality leaves a bit to desire, and wifi sync is generally too slow to be practical, so be prepared to be swapping out SD cards to get footage

This dashcam is the best one for the money. Very easy setup, took 5 minutes from box opening to installed and recording. I use it on my semi truck. Video is clear, and transfers quickly over the WiFi connection. Everything you need is included.

Very easy to use and install. my husband installed in about 5 minutes, I formatted the memory card and off I went. I am really glad I got this camera. So many close calls on the roads lately and I like having it watching out for me. Quality for the main dash cam for both night and day is very, very, crisp. It's easy to mount, and dismount, the device. Do leave an inch of room so that you can wedge the device out. It hardly takes any force at all, so no worries about it being a struggle to remove it when needed.

The camera is easy to setup. A mini-usb adapter that will let you wire it directly to the fuse box so no wires hanging across your dash/plugged into the lighter. It's smaller than the product pictures look. This is good as I like that it's not distracting or blocking my view as I drive. I was able to hide it behind the rearview mirror so you don't notice it while driving.
The video is of great quality. Very impressive how sharp the images are. I'm pleased.
I'll definitely recommend this to my friends.

They have oacked every spec and feature into this tiny package at an incredible value. The end result is a lot of good stuff, that just doesnt work right. The wifi connection is in redible glitchy and very hard to successfully connect even after trouble shooting. The resolutions and frame rate are impressive. Colors are super crisp but somehow the images still lack the detail to clearly read license plates and see orher fine details almost always. It does have a small size. The lens angle is very wide. You get alotnof features and at the price you get what you pay for. Okay for an entry level machine l, but there are way betrer cams out there. Tried the garmin mini 2 after. Same cost, better support app, easier to use, better pics and video even though it has a lower frame rate and resolution.

Good morning Nick, we recommend using VLC player for best results when replaying the videos. With it, you do and can get a good view of the license plates. We're very sorry you are not satisfied with your device. Thank you for your feedback.

Nice Dash cam, Lousy instructions

I've been using this Dash cam for a few months now. It works well and the images recorded are very clear compared to past cameras. The only knock I can give them is the documentation is awful. The package comes with a quick start guide which is enough to get the unit installed and running, but there are no detailed instructions available beyond this quick start. No explanation of icons on the screen, what the different menu items do, or anything detailed like that. Not available anywhere. I had to figure out the details by trial and error. Rexing got 90% of the way to the end zone with this unit only to fumble at the goal line.
