With dashcams becoming increasingly popular in Australia and the endless entertainment on Dash Cam Owners Australia, I thought I would share this deal on the GS98C Ambarella A7LA70 Dashcam from Geekbuying.

The dashcam features the Ambarella A7LA70 Chipset that outperforms a lot of the Novatek chipsets found in cheaper dashcams like the G1W. It's capable of recording 2304x1296 @ 30FPS and 1920x1080 @ 60FPS with good quality video in both day and night situations. It has a 170° wide angle lens with 64GB microSD card support and all of the other standard functions found in a dashcam. There is also a version that includes a GPS module.

It comes in two versions:

The GS98C Ambarella A7LA70 without GPS is $64.99 US (~$89 AU) with the coupon FSPUYHBR

And the GS98C with GPS is $71.99 US (~$98 AU) with the coupon MYKPENBI
Rather than waiting weeks with free shipping, get TNT Express for ~$0.15 USD!

  • 2.7 Inch TFT LCD Screen
  • 16.0MP Image Resolution
  • 5.0 MP COMS Sensor
  • 178 Degrees wide angle

    Lies about the original price
    http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:__A9XBT…

    Prev Price was 109USD NOT $180

    • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 07/12/2015 - 21:52

      Correct. The original price from Nov 26 was $109 US.

      If someone causes an accident that isn't your fault. I ain't paying for your mistake buddy.

      You could've asked in a less condescending way so as to not look like a tool.

        Seems that way doesnt it. Getting negged by the dashcam nazis.

          Fair enough.

          Apologies for my poor behaviour.

      Insurance. You've got the evidence if you're in an accident or witness an accident. Particularly good if someone reverses into you and decides to tell the insurance company that you rear ended them.

      you seriously asking this?
      i dont understand how you dont understand why people would want a dash cam!!

      have you ever watched dashcam videos on youtube?

  • Roney on 07/12/2015 - 22:31

    No IR? Can it take night shot?

    • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 07/12/2015 - 22:38

      No IR, but it still does night time well. There is footage of it here and here. Youtube has obviously scaled down the quality of the video though.

      Infrared is useless (which is why most dashcams don't have it anymore), the IR LED's are mostly reflected back into the cabin of your car anyway because of your windshield and they are not powerful enough to illuminate anything past your car bonnet.

  • aussie216618 on 07/12/2015 - 22:43

    what is the sensor size? and is there an OIS in it?

    • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 07/12/2015 - 22:46

      Has a 5.0 MP COMS Sensor and I'm not familiar with OIS. What does it stand for?

      • 51722 on 07/12/2015 - 22:48

        Most probably an optical image stabiliser.

        • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 07/12/2015 - 22:54

          Makes sense. There isn't a lot of dashcams in this price range that have it. I don't get any vibration on mine as it's properly stuck to the windscreen and tightened.

        • [Deactivated] on 07/12/2015 - 23:04

          @Clear:

          Is there a proper mount available?

        • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 07/12/2015 - 23:12

          @LoopyLou: Only suction cup sorry.

  • Chemhaz on 07/12/2015 - 23:09

    I wish car manufacturers would install a USB power source at the windscreen mirror mount. It would make fitting these so much easier.

    • altomic on 07/12/2015 - 23:34

      Hell yeah.

    • Downtooz on 07/12/2015 - 23:35

      I wish they just had good dash and built into the mirror

      • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 07/12/2015 - 23:45

        You can get smart windscreen mirrors with dashcams in them. They also run Android and the portion of the mirror is the screen.

        • ruriruri on 08/12/2015 - 13:55

          I am interested in this Android mirror.

  • illumination on 07/12/2015 - 23:46

    So based on your description OP, it seems you rate this dashcam over the other popular one?

    Is the GPS function just purely so you have GPS tags on your pics/videos?

    My only issue with this one is it looks so hideous…

    • afterabargain on 08/12/2015 - 00:14

      agree, big and bulky, but then good specs

    • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 08/12/2015 - 08:49

      The Ambarella A7LA70 chipset outperforms the one in the G1W. For example, it can do 1080p@60fps while the G1W can only do 1080p@30fps.

      Yeah, GPS is just so you have location for the footage.

      • outlander on 08/12/2015 - 10:19

        The GPS allows you to record speed right? so you can see how fast you were going, braking accelerating etc.

        • MarketingClear @ Geekbuying on 08/12/2015 - 10:33

          Correct. It won't be as accurate as your speedo though.

  • Steptoe on 08/12/2015 - 11:43

    Any comment about the unreliability of the GPS as mentioned in DCOA review?

  • OzzyB2013 on 08/12/2015 - 15:21

    .
    I don't have a dashcam yet, but I like the idea of a small camera and a separate recording device there is a review from early this year
    of one using the Ambarella A7LA70 Chipset on Techmoan it has both front & rear cameras it's the smaller cameras I'd prefer
