myGEKOgear - Orbit 530 Dash Cam - Black

Great dash cam. Small form factor but has a great picture even at night (see attached pic on a backroad at night). Easy to setup and get going. I only wish it had a way to hardwire it into the car instead of just having a cigarette charger.

Have had this camera for a while and its great!!!! Was able to get some pretty clear video of events!

It does everything it says. The menu and directions could be a little better, but they are very do-able. Very small compact size but with big features.

I absolutely love this dash cam that I bought in November 2020. It was exactly what I was looking for to replace the dash cam I was using in my truck. I wanted something small that was easy to conceal, something simple to use along with a good quality video at 1296p including night vision. It is affordable from BestBuy when it's on a one day sale. It's sturdy and I like the way it looks. The 150 degree camera view, 2" color screen, microphone, speaker and wifi to view on my cellphone adds to its value. I like the mounts that come with it because they are simple with less moving parts to tighten the camera into place. I used the smaller 3M adhesive mount. All those features are awesome, but there are plenty more options such as accident back up feature, stop and go tells you when the car ahead of you moves, you can set a driver fatigue alarm for long trips and set an alarm for your headlights. It comes with a car charger plug, a USB Micro charger power cord, a 16gb micro SD card replaceable with a32gb or 64gb card and a small owner's manual. The only sort of negative for me was the owner's manual is very brief and doesn't really explain how to use all the extra options. However, the BestBuy web page describes those features in a lil more detail. In my truck, power is constant so I have to unplug it when not in use. I was so impressed with the myGekogear Orbit 530 dash cam that I recently bought a second one for my new CUV. In that vehicle, power shuts off after a delay so I can leave it plugged in. I threw my old original dash cam in my old 84 Supra, but honestly I'm considering on buying a 3rd one. I did a lot of research before I bought the first one and I highly recommend the Orbit 530 if you like the features I discussed.

Good upgrade from what I had. Still not sure how the loop works, seems like it just keeps going until the card is full then starts to record over the start of it. On my old cam I would have to reset the card when it got full but I haven't had to do it with this card. It's still not full HD and hard to see plates if not close and good lighting. It does do it's job. I did see one review that it beeps and stops for a second record and I have noticed that it does do that but then it will go back to recording.

Surprised how small the car dash cams are. Did not realize it until I went into the store to see others up close. This little camera is small but perfect so its not blocking any road visuals when needed. So far so good. App is easy to use as well that talks to it By searching the wifi from your phone and it should see the wifi broadcast from the camera. Note: this is not bluetooth connected device because that connection is slower.

Item exceeds my expectations. Nice small dash came that does obstruct my view. I got it mounted next to the rearview mirror. Video quality is good. Will purchase another one for my other car

Easily installed and easily removed when leaving the vehicle. Camera records good daytime quality.
