About this deal

There’s more: with the rear camera attached, you can’t opt to record high- and low-quality clips simultaneously as you can without it. If you upgrade to a Series 2 Camera, there are 3 different Series 2 Rear Cameras that are all compatible with the 322GW, 422GW, 522GW and 622GW. Fault:- when first power up after connecting 512 to rear cam then inserting 512 into windscreen mount is the PiP of rear view is just an outline. Once installed and any options set, you can largely forget about it and it will reliably record evidence that will be invaluable if you ever need it.

I was also told to press "Mode" to switch between rear PiP and rear full screen - I guess so you get a better view of who or what you are about to run over ! This could be a useful feature if you need to take some shots of damage at the scene of an accident, although the images aren’t very high resolution.

Not a major bug - but very irritating waste of 7 seconds when all you wanted to do was plug in and go. The rear dash cam, which turns the 512GW into a dual dash cam, is also a useful tool in the event of an accident because you can check the footage to see if they were driving too close or were distracted (like using their phone while driving).

Nextbase 512GW Review - Tech Advisor

It has been completely re-designed to provide a fresh new look and feel, for enhanced user experience. Things like Parking Mode - which records for a short period of time when the car is parked if it the G sensor detects an incident - time stamp and speed stamp can be switched on and off too.

insurance discount into account, and the fact that many insurers now want GPS, time and speed stamping on submitted footage - the 522GW is a very smart option. Not all drivers will need to do this, but some cars will find the battery drained if you leave anything plugged in for a few hours. These settings being wrongly configured account for the majority of app issues that users experience.

A Rear Window camera is also available, which attaches to the rear window and has a new, more versatile magnetic mount with an adhesive fixture. Nextbase says it uses so little power in sleep mode that it will work even if you leave you car parked for several weeks. Please note: Recording both high and low resolution versions will take up more space on the memory card. There’s also an auto-dimming feature which lowers the screen brightness at night (or in low light) and another new one: time-lapse. I adjusted the rear camera angles today and it just stopped working, plenty of slack to connector so it’s not damaged the cable when adjusting.

If you don't clip it up, you could end up with the cable running from the front to the back of your car - which is another reason to recommend hardwiring.

Compared to designs from Thinkware and DDPai which hug the windscreen and don’t obstruct the sun visors, the 512GW is hard to hide away behind a rear view mirror – at least in a standard hatchback. Once your phone is connected, you can view the feed from the camera(s) and also watch recorded clips. The Nextbase iQ is the world’s first truly smart Dash Cam that goes above an beyond anything you have seen before. Nextbase sensibly recommends you install it within the rear wiper’s path so the view isn’t obscured by dirt or rain, but doing so in many cars would also partially obscure your view out of the back and leave that cable trailing across the glass. Our Developers are always working to improve the functionality of our cameras and provide new features, such as different languages.Only one of the quick-release mounts is included in the package, however; you’ll have to attach the ball joint to whichever screen attachment you decide to use. The rear camera also offers good quality video, but it’s a shame this comes at the expense of quality at the front. The 512GW is a mid-range dash cam from Nextbase, a company originally set up in 1999 to import portable entertainment systems from China. Again, decent enough quality for Full HD, but it’s a shame they don’t use the full resolution at which the 512GW is capable of shooting in video mode.
