Garmin Dash Cam Tandem vs Nexar Beam

Over $300 camera, without a rear camera (even though you are able to add cameras through the app), not even a tool to push your wires through the panels like any other cheaper cameras out there, only 720P resolution for the inside, which my $200 cheaper VAVA 2K has 1080P, lousy Wi-Fi, keeps going in and out, asking you to join every minute – RIDICULOUS, not even a booklet for BASIC INSTRUCTION how to operate the camera – UNBELIEVABLE, that every other electronic device/dashcam out there gives you even if you need to update it later on (that's what they claim as an excuse, so what?!). Easy to use and easy to install, and even Great Idea for the future of dash cams, but way too GREEDY AND OVERPRICED dashcam, definitely NOT RECOMMENDED for this CRAZY PRICE.

That being said, the unit is compact enough to hide behind my rear view mirror and out of my line of sight from the driver seat, the video quality is excellent both day and night, the setup was pretty straightforward, and editing clips from full drives is a breeze on the Nexar app. Overall, I guess that having a live stream to my phone that is easily stored and edited is a fair trade off for some overzealous connectivity.
