CACAGOO CA07 Car DVR Dashboard Dash Cam

This really is a cracking little dash cam, it arrived in a nice custom box with a foam cut out to hold the camera with protective plastic over the screens with all the leads and manual in the bottom. I was really surprised how small it was so after giving it a full charge it was time to give it a test, I already had a 32 gig micro SD card ready so after inserting that I switched it on.


This comes with a multitude of settings so I had a good read through the manual before setting it up and decided to start with 1920* 1080p 45fps with a 3 minutes loop although I have since tested all the other modes these are the settings for this video I have attached, setting it up is fairly simple just cycling and selecting through the onscreen menu. I clipped in the suction holder and fixed it into the car. What I really like about this is the wide angle lens, it makes it so you can fit it virtually any place on your windscreen and get a full wide angle of the road and the paths including side roads so everything is captured.


When I returned I plugged the camera into the computer and transferred the videos, you could of course just remove the micro SD card and use a card reader if you wished, the quality of the videos was superb with very crisp and clear sound quality. I have taken some screen grabs from the videos as the video I have uploaded will not show the true quality due to the optimisation on upload so they hopefully give a clearer representation. I tested the video locking that worked as it should, the motion detect seems to work flawlessly instantly starting the recording as soon as I started the car.

  • Super HD - The dash cam with 170°wide angle and HD 1296p, Full HD 1080p and HDR 1080p to clearly capture journey memories or evidences of traffic accident.
  • Equipped with video processor - an Ambarella A7L chipset, which ensures higher stability on seamless recording.
  • Loop Recording - Enable seamless loop recording and automatically overwrite the oldest video files with the newest when reaching the memory card's maximal capacity (64GB). Please note that TF cards are not included.
  • Emergency Video Recording and Locking: Automatically or manually record and lock videos before or after collisions or crashes. Locked files won't be deleted from loop recording.
  • Easy Operation: start and stop video capturing with car ignition. After turning on the parking mode and G-sensor, the DVR detects motion and starts recordings automatically in parking mode.
