"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"I have U3000 and night vision is great. ... I was rear ended 3 days after install at night and footage shows every expression on the ladies face as she slammed into me."
"records clear enough in day and night to submit to insurance or a YouTube channel"
"i want the best resolution camera back there, and the dual ones out there, including fitcamx, all have 1080p res. the viofo is 4k ... the last 5 cars have all had front and rear cameras, and at least 3 times we got punted in the rear, not once in the front. one time some dumbass ran in to us at the wendys drive thru. another was when we were stopped at a red lite."

"I got it because of the Starvis 2 sensor which gives improved clarity in the dark. ... If anyone is driving at night I highly recommend any dashcam with a Starvis 2 sensor."
"For my EV6, I decided to go with the Viofo A139 Pro, and the picture quality is significantly better for both daytime and nighttime."
"the Dual kit has one of the newest camera specs on the market. ... Starvis 2 is important for night quality reading plates. ... The novatek version also makes a difference. ... The dual is the newest specs."

"My Rav4 hybrid had it's battery drained from the FitcamX ... just last week it drained the battery and we were stuck. ... I did not know that the camera continues to draw power via the mirror even when the car is off (we do not have any parking mode turned on), and we didn't even leave the car off that long, it was literally 4 hours."
"Oh, on their web-site, it says that when the vehicle is locked, it turns off. So this is not a "sentry mode" option. ... As far as parking, plenty of use cases, two of which I've personally experienced: people backing up into your vehicle while you're parked. ... Hit and run is a great reason for parking cam."
"Only con would be that it doesn’t record when the car is off because of its power source."

"won't stay on"
"mine will randomly turn off when I turn off the car every now and then. ... This worries me that one day it'll be off when I needed it to be recording."

9thGenSi 1.0I have the Rove R2 4K Dual. I spent a lot of time researching. But I know the Dual kit has one of the newest camera specs on the market. That one does not unfortunately. Starvis 2 is important for night quality reading plates. The novatek version also makes a difference. Had no issues with my rove yet
The r2 4k, r2 4k pro and the r2 4k dual are three different specs. The dual is the newest specs. Works great love it but the pro isnt as good as the dual.
Balzovai 1.0I own 3 of these today. Normally they are around $150 - $160 when I’ve bought them. Seems like a great price to me.
DaveDL01 1.0I use this when I rent cars or borrow someone else’s for some reason. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0D6J5B98H?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
deathshade17 1.0I use the Rove R2-4K Dual for both my Rav4 and Sienna. It’s been great for me.
Diabolus_IpseSum 1.0Viofo a139 pro was the best dashcam I had until it stopped working one day. Now i have a viofo a329s and a rove r2 -4k dual
DocLego 1.0We have this one, but it plugs in to the cig-style outlet at the back (I think you can also usb-c it with an adapter). Got it because I didn't want to do any wiring. [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6J5B98H](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6J5B98H)
Extreme-Pineapple397 1.0I have the Rove R2-4K Dual. It has excellent video quality and minimal side blindspots. And I really like that you can manipulate the rear camera to your preferred angle. My only complaint is, I wish it was mobile network enabled for 24/7 live view from any range, cloud upload capabilities, and real-time alerts. I've recently started looking into others that do have this feature, and so far what I've found seem to have poor video quality (not really 4k, no night vision, etc), or some other issue. Or they seem pretty good, but doesn't have all of the features I would like. Please update with what you end up getting, and your opinion 🙂
Most 4k (that I have looked into) are actually split, or divided, like its the total including the rear cam. I have a rove, its 4k, yet not the front nor rear is actually 4k alone. So personally, I would not recommend buying less than a 4k (plus the 1080p on my rear cam is in no way near as good of quality as the front cam, can't imagine decifiering plates off it). Just my experience / opinion. Strange your videos take that long to download. A 3 min video for mine takes seconds. Idk, maybe something in your settings? Worth double-checking.
felixandy101 1.0I purchased the R2 4K dual which has the starvis 2 with discount for 339dhs. Rove has more reviews that viofo but still a good brand. Installed the rove myself, hid the wires easily. Lots of guides on it. Just the rear has a wire shown as it needs some lenght to open the rear door given its an suv. Will be more neat for a sedan. No need to pay stupid prices like 1K or more. U can easily manage installation on ur own.
Nice but still its a hefty price to pay though for all that. Yeah i wasnt referring to your Rove, I specifically mentioned Rove 4k which i purchased that had starvis 2. U can refer to my original comment. For parking mode there is a seperate kit to purchase for the rove that needs hard wiring.
FirehawkLS1 1.0The A229 pro has been good to me. The app is not great but works. Have one for my daily driver and my wife's car. My other car I've been using the ROVE R2-4K DUAL Dash Cam. Micro SD card brand and type is equally important. I didn't use the micro sd card that came with the rove. I tend to stick to the Samsung Evo line or SanDisk High Endurance Video line.
I'm using a 256GB card (Sandisk High Endurance, item code SDSQQNR-256G-GN6IA) , so I cannot speak to anything larger being supported (but I do see others have). I've had the camera for roughly 7 months now (bought 2 of them on Amazon and with deal of the day discount, got them for $185)and I am really happy with them. The phone app isn't bad but could be better. I still use an older cell phone with the Torque app installed and use the track recorder function (I have an obd2 bluetooth adapter that interfaces with it and I have extra gauges as overlays for it) for a secondary dash cam, but it's nice to have the features of a dash cam with great night vision recording, something that a Galaxy Note 3 phone doesn't do well. 🤣 Overall the A119 is a great dash cam. I have one in my car and have been trying to convince my wife to let me install the second one I bought in her car because these days I really do believe that everyone should have a dash cam in their car. For my Firebird I went with a ROVE R2-4K DUAL Dash Cam (front and rear camera) that I'll be installing in the spring. That car already encountered a hit and run when it was parked and I wasn't in it, so I'm a little paranoid about that happening again.
foreverbaked1 1.0https://a.co/d/dID3OyF I have this in both my cars. I love it
