What customers say about "Key Specs"

Thinkware F770 Dash Cam with Built-in WiFi & GPS

Very secure window mount, easy installation overall.
The only improvement this could use is more cord mounts. The front+rear kit only comes with the same five cord hangers as the front kit, and it would be more convenient to have another five for the rear.
I wanted to be able to read license plate numbers. I assumed high resolution would enable me to do that after looking at countless views from Thinkware posters on YouTube. The files are 1080p and are very crisp and clear.
I bought the F770 with hard-wire kit and rear camera. I was attracted to this unit by the comparatively rare permutation of wide viewing angle, front & rear recording in higher resolutions, HDR, and because I live in AZ a higher-end thermal specification.
Ok, so maybe the Thinkware isn’t stylish, but it is cool looking. It isn’t bulky or obtrusive.

Thinkware F800 Dash Cam

Gives me a sense of safety that I know I have a second set of eyes in front in case something happens that I can see if I could have avoided the sitiation
This dash cam doesn't have LCD display, so you can't see what settings you're changing etc, and HAVE to use the app.
Camera does everything it says. Very easy to mount, and very easy to retrieve video.
Easy windshield mount with double sided 3M tape and bracket.
For those who have not installed the unit yet, WiFi LED flashes so make sure u mount it behind the rear view mirror where u can’t see the unit.

What customers say about "Video"

Thinkware F770 Dash Cam with Built-in WiFi & GPS

Video quality is quite good, including at night.
Video quality exceeds my expectations in day and night even though with my front and rear positioning the camera has to look through a headline tint (front) and after-market applied tint (rear).
The video quality of both the front and rear cameras far outshine that of my Department's very expensive Arbitrator Dash Cam units for our police fleet.
Great video recording, even at night and the lane warnings in bad rain storms.
The video quality is decent, but not stellar. License plates at a stop light are easy to read, but not in traffic.

Thinkware F800 Dash Cam

Best camera, fantastic quality video, recommended for my friends.
Its works great good photos and videos Keep You in the lines and from rear ending people
The camera works well and connects to a cell phone. Great video and works when parked with optional wiring kit. Use the Thinkware Cloud app.
Video resolution is great. The only problem I have is the dash reflects onto the windshield when in direct sunlight. This is captured by the dash cam.
The day and night video is amazing. You can read 90% or all the licence plates day or night.

What customers say about "Features"

Thinkware F770 Dash Cam with Built-in WiFi & GPS

Records to both internal memory + SD card, reducing chance of data loss.
The Thinkware has parking mode that wakes on motion and/or impact as well as takes time lapse pictures. I’m not a fan of the time-lapse feature, but do like to have it wake on motion near my car.
The WiFi connection and parking mode were bonus features which did not factor into my search.
Otherwise: quality is excellent, installation is super fast, and the features are unbeatable.
Voice prompts and boot sounds are not configurable (eg, I don't care when the GPS is connected minutes after I start driving, but you can't disable that notification).
Not intuitive, hard to reach buttons (I have to move mirror out of the way to find a button I need to press)

Thinkware F800 Dash Cam

It has GPS built in, safety features enabled, supposedly superior optics for night etc.
It's great camera, offers a lot of features like Wifi connectivity, GPS built in, Full HD also offers rear camera (Optional).
Has all the features I was wanting and reliability I needed in a dash cam. No regrets
This dash cam is loaded with safety features. However, the volume even at max, is hard to hear. They have told me though that they are going to release a firmware update very soon to fix this.
Front crash avoidance ding is too low, and the feature is too slow & renders it unusable.
