In today’s world, video recorders are a common tool for streetwise road-users. So, join us as we search for the best dash cam for your car, including products from the likes of Garmin, Nextbase, and Thinkware.<\/strong><\/p>\n Dash cams – I wouldn’t blame you for thinking that they’re all pretty much alike, but honestly, you’d be surprised how different they can be. Naturally, image quality is a big deal – are you happy enough with 1080p resolution, or will you not settle for anything less than 4K these days? And what about frame rate? Then you need to consider the actual functionality of the dash cam; do you want GPS data, driver assistance, or SOS software? Maybe you want a package that records out the rear window, as well as the front. Heck, if you’re reading Fast Car<\/em>, you might even want your dash cam to help you achieve faster lap times at your local track.<\/p>\n By now, hopefully you’re getting the idea. Unless you’re clued up about what’s available and what you truly want, it’s easy to end up buying the wrong dash cam. This article will hopefully help you avoid that disappointing fate, as I’ve managed to test out a whole bunch of items first-hand. You can find all the best ones in the compilation below, along with all the key tech info and links to more in-depth reviews. So, happy dash cam hunting!<\/p>\n With each of the products I tested, I wanted to make sure that I was able to portray a comprehensive ownership experience. That meant reporting on everything from the installation process, to the effectiveness of included extra features. I’ve even embedded footage from each dash cam into their own individual reviews, so do make sure to click through if you want to see that with your own eyes.<\/p>\n Naturally, having come into contact with a variety of dash cams while doing this job, I’m well-positioned to assess them against each other and figure out what type of ownership they’d suit best.<\/p>\n I’ve decided to collate an array of dash cams, each best suited to different specialized purposes. So, have a look at the list below, and see which category applies best to you. Hopefully, you’ll find something that’s just right!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n RRP:\u00a0$399.99, buy now<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a3269.00, buy now<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong> excellent image quality, more features than I thought possible with a dash cam, easy installation.<\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong> quite expensive.<\/p>\n The Nextbase 622GW stands out to me as one of the best overall dash cams on the market. For a start, it offers up to 4K resolution videos, or if you’re more of a frame rate nerd, you can bring the resolution down in the settings to claim up to 120fps. Its Click&Go PRO mount is the best mounting system I’ve come across so far – super easy to adhere to glass, and thanks to its strong magnets you can connect the camera one-handed. The 622GW is also packed full of cool features. The basics like GPS and parking mode are there, but you also get Alexa compatibility, and can even set up What3Words-enhanced SOS messaging if you have a serious crash.<\/p>\n If you want to learn more, make sure to check out my full review of the Nextbase 622GW<\/a> here.<\/p>\n Tech Specs:<\/strong><\/p>\nHow we reviewed these products<\/h2>\n
