        Why?

          • It was Dashcamtalk best bang for buck dashcam for a long time.
          • I've bought 3 for friends & installed them about 2 years ago & still working fine.
          • It has a capacitor to shut it down instead of a battery.
          • No setting up with apps to get it to work, just insert a micro sd card - plug it in & it works.
          • This has been posted a lot on Ozbargain and not many negative comments.

          @Unbreakable: Yes and you could message Sunny for a coupon code to post as a deal if you wanted.

    • Sydgun on 14/12/2017 - 09:16

      That why I chose the word "decent" instead of "amazing". Still relatively cheap compared to what's available out there

  • auindie on 14/12/2017 - 07:35

    I have this one purchased 2 years back .. solid performance no issues .. but the cam keeps falling off from the supper cradle .. tried even the 3M sticker but same issue when the car is parked outside in sun .. how to keep it stuck properly any suggestions

      supper cradle

      Maybe the portion is too small!?

  • Unbreakable on 14/12/2017 - 08:12

    These clowns have cancelled my last two orders for no reason.

      I think they wanted to see if they could break you .

      I’ve made over 10 orders and no issues to date

    • flangeflange on 14/12/2017 - 08:51

      mine too when using paypal. i put through their credit portal and worked fine, is frustrating though

      • Unbreakable on 14/12/2017 - 08:55

        Yeah both of mine where paypal.

        • flangeflange on 14/12/2017 - 09:10

          yep and they gave me some rubbish about how paypal cancelled it - when i spoke to paypal they said this wasn't true.

          Anyways, i split order into smaller order to minimise risk and used normal payment portal and worked.

    Why wouldn't you buy this for basically the same price: https://www.gearbest.com/car-dvr/pp_375217.html

  • hamwhisperer on 14/12/2017 - 16:04

    Not to be annoying, but that youtube video was made in 2014.
    Surely by near 2018, you'd see something with better processors, larger batteries and higher quality cameras, right?

    Phone cameras are crazy good now and not that expensive as an individual part.

    • WatchNerd on 14/12/2017 - 16:16

      It's an old model now, so when it's posted for $28.85 it's a good deal and does the job fine.

      But as Unbreakable has pointed out - the new best bang for buck on Dashcamtalk is A118 for a similar price.

      • hamwhisperer on 15/12/2017 - 14:24

        That does seem a decent model, a shame the GPS module isn't built in as default.

        • WatchNerd on 15/12/2017 - 17:20

          Why do you want GPS in a dashcam?

        • hamwhisperer on 18/12/2017 - 08:46

          @WatchNerd: May be useful if you're trying to prove something about an accident or even speeding fines.

        • WatchNerd on 18/12/2017 - 22:28

          @hamwhisperer:

          I'm guessing for a gps dashcam to be submissible as evidence it would have to comply with some regulations.

          A standard dashcam has this evidence anyway. Speed equals time & distance travelled.

    Finally received mine from this node https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/340758#comment Nearly a full two months after I ordered it - only to find the menu button doesn't work.

    Has anyone had dealings with gearbest for returns or replacements?

    I am thinking postage back will cost nearly as much as the item anyway.

    The first one I bought seemed to be working O.K. then after running for a year, something interesting finally happened and that was when I discovered the loop function whilst appearing to be on, wasn't actually working. the card had just filled up and it had stopped recording.

    I suckered up for a third one (gave one to a friend) because it generally had good reviews. Am I just unlucky or are they crap?

    • CVonC on 05/01/2018 - 01:46

      Yeah I got mine on Tuesday or Wednesday. Was beginning to think it was lost. I haven't installed it yet but I'm expecting to be disappointed according to the previous thread.

  • dj123 on 11/01/2018 - 22:32

    I bought two G1W-CBs from gearbest recently. Both have fuzzy images - number plates not readable until the other car is quite close. The blueskysea brand G1W-C I bought a few years ago was better - very clear number plate images. Seems to me either gearbest is buying from a low quality source or the more recent G1W-C(B)s are generally made from lower quality tech than earlier ones.
