This dash cam arrived in a nice black branded box with the camera part in a separate black box with removable protectors on both the front and back screen and protected with bubble wrap, the second box contained the manual, a short and long mini USB charging cable, cigarette adapter and a choice of two fitting mounts.
This has a nice glass display screen rather than the plastic ones on a lot of dash cams, I think it depends on your preference and always a bit of a trade-off, with the smaller more covert dash cams you have a tiny display but are easier to tuck behind the rear view mirror and forget about but then you are not able to see the live footage or the larger screen ones good for live footage. This is a bit in between the two, the screen is small but it has a very clear glass display so can go behind the rear view mirror or in a more visible area for viewing.
After giving the manual a good read through it was time to set it up, I added a video going through the menu with day time and night time driving, using the mini HDMI socket you are able to display to a TV screen or monitor which I did and recorded it going through the menu, please forgive the picture being slightly at an angle on the menu and you should also note the video will degrade when uploaded due to Amazons optimisation process with the original footage being of far higher quality. The menu system is very simple to navigate and most of the options are self-explanatory or fully explained in the manual.
This comes with two different types of fitting system, a windscreen sucker fitting system or a base that fits to the dashboard of your car, I decided to fit it with the sucker system although with the wide angle recording you can fit it just about any place you like on the screen and it will capture everything, in the video I show some motorway driving and you have a full view of all lanes including the hard shoulder.
The record quality is superb and I have grabbed a couple of screen shot which give a better idea of the quality, I tested the parking monitor by rocking the car and that kicked in and worked well, I also tested the G-sensor function with some hard breaking which also worked very well and the linking it up to your TV or monitor works great although you should be aware you need a mini HDMI to normal HDMI lead to do this (not supplied).
