I don't have a comment about what to look at. But I wanted to say thanks for your previous work. Based 100% on your recommendation, I bought the Blueskysea B1W and have had a great experience with it so far. I've actually bought 4 of them for the family. In my vehicle I had used a cheap action camera (like the GoPro) and it had a good car mode. At some time it overheated, the battery expanded and I didn't notice. Probably months later until I noticed. I feel the B1W would have had an audible warning and things would have been different. For me capacitor and clear verbal warnings are a must. Thanks again and keep up the great work!

Thanks again for the great work you do. I think you could look into some set ups where people have two separate cameras for front and back for example two b1ws or when they rotate their previous front cameras to the back and get a newer camera for the front.

Your reviews are the best! I get to work with self driving cars and they have multiple interior cameras and multiple surround exterior cameras. I drive all around a major city as a driver (not Google). I've seen ride share drivers do interior cameras facing outward in all four directions. I've seen roof mounted surround cameras with 3d printed housings. I've also seen DIY side mirror mounted cameras. Buses that have outside side cameras facing the side mirrors to look at the driver. What would be dream setup? Anything on the market similar to Tesla sentinel mode?

Do you have a best 360° camera DVR review? If not can you respond with your top pick? Same question about rear view mirror DVR cameras.

hey mate, new viewer here, thank for your great channel. Looking for a good 4k cam with good wifi app, it seems A129 duo is still the winner? Are there others you can recommend around the same price (or cheaper)? thanks.

Are you planning in the near future to do a similar video on backup cameras? They're too many out there making similar claims even some models greater than five years old.

Hello Dash Cam Enthusiasts! I’m alive and have been focused on dual channel cameras. I’m covering budget cameras between $100 and $200 first. Here’s my thoughts including the cameras I’ve purchased and those I’ve passed on.
Purchased for Testing:
• Apeman C860: $90-100, popular brand, advanced Sony IMX335 sensors.
• Crosstour DR900: Cheapest camera ($100) with Capacitors, good front/back 1080P and popular.
• VAVA VA-VD002: 30 month warranty, seems good on sale for $120. Otherwise it uses batteries and for a normal price for $150, not sure if I would get it.
Passed:
• Mini 0906: My previous pick in 2018. There's no one supporting it in North America.
• Rexing V1P 3rd & Pro: Good video specs, capacitors, customer support. Just expensive at $180 or $150 on sale. The WiFi has terrible ratings.
• Thinkware X700: The rear video quality is just awful. It’s a premium brand but I wouldn’t get it unless it’s under $120.
• Z-EDGE S3 & Z3D: The offerings from Apeman, Crosstour, Aukey are better. Limited availability outside USA.
Coming Back
My current picks: Aukey DR02D for its 24 month warranty and Viofo A129 DUO for exceptional all around performance. The A129 PRO I'm not planning on covering till later but it's the DUO with a better daytime camera but slightly worse at night.
I haven't found anything good under $100 that I can recommend.
Are there any $50-$200 front-back cameras that I should review with good customer support that I'm missing?
