Easy to Set Up

on August 8, 2015

Posted by: Brian

I did quite a bit of research on these prior to buying. If you are looking for something that is easy to get your hands on versus via Amazon or China, it's nice Best Buy is offering them for sale. I also have a Magellan GPS device that also records video that I purchased from BB, so I can compare those.

Video quality, the F750 is far better. I don't think BB will allow me to embed a video here, but I will post a link to a private You Tube video I uploaded so you can see. I haven't tried this at night, but all dash cams tend to struggle with quality video at night.

Audio, both are just fine.

This has a WiFi access that the Magellan does not. At first it was finicky about connecting, but no problems since. The interface is less then what you would get on your PC Viewer, which both have, but if you need video to show, the WiFi will handle it.

I purchased this along with the Hardwire kit, which was easy enough. Powers on when the ACC is on and enters parking mode when car is turned off. I tested the sensitivity and it works. However, if someone does hit your car on the side, unless they walk into view of the camera, you won't see them.

There is a slight hum during video playback. Some research shows this may be due to some interference with the GPS, TPMS, OnStar, XMSirius that I already have in the car so a different direction of wiring may be needed.

Overall it's a gadget, albeit a pricier one, but could be very useful in the event of an accident. Best Buy also offers these cheaper then what you can find them on Amazon now, possibly since they are fairly new in the stores.

The picture attached for some reason does not show the video (Windows 10, I dunno), but the link to the video shows you what you would see. The picture shows you the framework for the PC Viewing Screen. The video is here https://youtu.be/Efga4ZLnHuc

I would recommend this to a friend!
