  • 1:51 | actually got an SD card in there I don’t

  • 1:55 | fam
  • 1:57 | yeah right right so the SD card’s
  • 1:59 | already in there next I need to connect

  • 2:04 | fact that it’s showing me little little
  • 2:06 | diagrams on how to connect the power
  • 2:07 | cable and stuff like that so it looks
  • 2:08 | like we’re going in the car for this bit
  • 2:10 | so let’s go get inside all right so I’ve
  • 2:13 | connected the power cable like the thing
  • 2:16 | asks um I guess now let me stick it up
  • 2:18 | on the on the wind screen somewhere oh I
  • 2:21 | guess I guess I’ll just put it maybe
  • 2:22 | like here all right what’s man got to do
  • 2:24 | next power turn on your vehicle’s
  • 2:26 | ignition to power up your PCO you should
  • 2:28 | see a blue light on the peo when it’s is
  • 2:30 | powered up do you know what guys let me
  • 2:31 | just skip past all this bit in it all
  • 2:34 | right people so you’ll see right here
  • 2:35 | we’re finally connected with the phone
  • 2:38 | to the dash cam main issue that I was
  • 2:41 | having in the first place was the fact
  • 2:42 | that my phone being at home right now
  • 2:44 | was connected to my Wi-Fi network and
  • 2:46 | because it was connected to my Wi-Fi
  • 2:47 | network for some odd reason it couldn’t
  • 2:50 | stop and switch to my dash cam so I had
  • 2:53 | to tell my phone to forget my home Wi-Fi
  • 2:55 | network connect to the dash cam update
  • 2:58 | the dash cam and then connect back to my
  • 3:01 | home’s Wi-Fi network which is a bit
  • 3:03 | long- winded I don’t know why you can’t
  • 3:06 | just have your Wi-Fi network at home
  • 3:08 | connected and connect to the dash cam as
  • 3:10 | well I guess it won’t really be an issue
  • 3:11 | when you’re driving around because
  • 3:13 | obviously you’re not going to be
  • 3:14 | connected to any Wi-Fi networks whilst
  • 3:16 | you’re driving in the car in it so yeah
  • 3:18 | at least the thing is working now and
  • 3:20 | we’re good to go and show you the
  • 3:22 | features now when you first get the app
  • 3:24 | installed you need to download yourself
  • 3:25 | a update this update took me ages
  • 3:28 | because the application would not
  • 3:30 | connect for love nor money to the
  • 3:33 | flipping dash camera itself so when man
  • 3:36 | finally got all of that sorted the app
  • 3:39 | was open I could see all the options
  • 3:41 | that it gave me basically all the smart
  • 3:43 | features that the dash cam has to offer
  • 3:45 | like you can see the witness mode in
  • 3:47 | there you can download videos from the
  • 3:50 | dash cam wirelessly and you can also go
  • 3:55 | on there to have like a live preview
  • 3:57 | mode so that you can see exactly what
  • 4:00 | the web camera can see and you can just
  • 4:02 | obviously fit it to your dash cam to
  • 4:04 | make sure that it’s seeing everything
  • 4:06 | that’s on the road ahead of you so yeah
  • 4:08 | pretty much simple situation for the
  • 4:10 | dash cam application but getting it
  • 4:13 | connected in the first place hella
  • 4:15 | jaring cuz all right now let’s get into
  • 4:17 | the nitty and gritty of this thing
  • 4:19 | because as a dumb web camera yeah in
  • 4:22 | terms of it just reading the license
  • 4:25 | plates of the cars in front of you it
  • 4:27 | you know having a good enough microphone
  • 4:29 | to hear what’s going on in the cockpit
  • 4:31 | if there is an altercation it pretty
  • 4:33 | much does that really well fam like you
  • 4:35 | can see from the footage that I’m
  • 4:37 | showing you here it’s very clear whether
  • 4:39 | it’s daytime or whether it’s nighttime
  • 4:42 | fam and you know the very basic
  • 4:44 | necessity of a dash cam is just to see
  • 4:46 | what’s going on in front of you and read
  • 4:48 | the license plat so if anyone tries to
  • 4:50 | hit and run you’ve already got them on
  • 4:53 | camera one time cuz and like I said the
  • 4:56 | next Bas Pico does that effortlessly but
  • 5:00 | where it starts to fall short is the
  • 5:02 | Smart features and if you’re getting
  • 5:04 | something like this it’s most likely
  • 5:06 | because you want the smart features now
  • 5:08 | one of the smart features that does work
  • 5:09 | really well is the voice activated
  • 5:12 | witness mode where you literally say
  • 5:13 | next base Pico witness mode activate and
  • 5:17 | it will start recording anything that’s
  • 5:19 | going on in front of you until you tell
  • 5:21 | it to stop so let’s say for example if
  • 5:23 | there’s like an alocation someone’s
  • 5:25 | trying to get out their car and try and
  • 5:27 | go into you um you can tell to go into
  • 5:30 | witness mode and it will discreetly
  • 5:31 | start recording everything that’s going
  • 5:33 | on microphone and everything so you have
  • 5:36 | that for evidence when you need to snake
  • 5:37 | anyone that is moving mad on road now
  • 5:41 | that’s the only smart feature that kind
  • 5:43 | of works really well because it’s also
  • 5:45 | supposed to let you download your
  • 5:47 | footage wirelessly from the dash camera
  • 5:51 | directly to your phone without you
  • 5:53 | needing to you know plug out the SSD put
  • 5:56 | that into like another laptop and
  • 5:58 | download your footage that way the
  • 6:00 | oldfashioned way conneting which you
  • 6:01 | would do to be honest with most other
  • 6:04 | dash cams however the clunkiness and the
  • 6:08 | lack of connectivity with the
  • 6:10 | application I don’t know the application
  • 6:12 | is just not applicationing for me
  • 6:15 | personally on my smartphone I got Google
  • 6:17 | pixel9 pro it just wasn’t working so
  • 6:19 | when I was trying to download the stuff
  • 6:21 | it was just taking ages and it’s like yo
  • 6:23 | by this time I could have dragged out
  • 6:24 | the SD card gone into my yard and just
  • 6:27 | transferred the stuff over the old
  • 6:29 | fashioned we another smart feature that
  • 6:31 | I think is really overlooked is the fact
  • 6:33 | that it has all the relevant information
  • 6:35 | that you need automatically attached to
  • 6:38 | every video it records so it’s got the
  • 6:41 | speed that you’re going it’s got the
  • 6:43 | time of day it’s got the date itself and
  • 6:46 | it’s got the license plate of your
  • 6:48 | carfam so when you drag a video off the
  • 6:51 | dash camera it’s basically a complete
  • 6:53 | file and anyone who gets it knows
  • 6:56 | exactly what where when and who it
  • 6:59 | happened to and here’s a little clip to
  • 7:02 | let you know what the sound quality from
  • 7:03 | the microphone on the dash cam sounds
  • 7:06 | like weding
  • 7:10 | house continue on Wick Road for half a
  • 7:13 | mile once I secure my venue babe save
  • 7:16 | the date save the
  • 7:17 | date so yeah in terms of smart features
  • 7:21 | it’s not as smart as I would have hoped
  • 7:23 | it was kind of thing which kind of puts
  • 7:26 | me into a difficult situation because
  • 7:28 | obviously it’s kind of pricey for a 2K
  • 7:31 | webcam like obviously you can get 2K
  • 7:33 | webcams on Amazon for like under 50 now
  • 7:36 | this is nearly twice that price which
  • 7:38 | could be justified if the smart features
  • 7:41 | were working efficiently kind of thing
  • 7:43 | but because they’re not um it’s a little
  • 7:46 | bit hard for me to recommend over any
  • 7:48 | other 2K web camera but saying that
  • 7:52 | again the 2K resolution on this thing is
  • 7:54 | plenty enough plenty efficient to see
  • 7:57 | what’s going on in front of your car get
  • 7:59 | all the license plates as I said before
  • 8:01 | and that’s all you need a dash cam for
  • 8:04 | really so like for me personally yeah as
  • 8:07 | a dumb dash cam it’s really good but the
  • 8:11 | fact that it’s not supposed to be a dumb
  • 8:13 | dash cam it’s supposed to be a smart
  • 8:14 | dash cam the smart features just ain’t
  • 8:17 | kind it but let me know if the smart
  • 8:19 | features actually matter to you and
  • 8:21 | whether this dash cam on its own is
  • 8:23 | still a purchase for you
