Product Information

rear camera is a new addition here, featuring a decent 2K QHD (2560 x 1440) sensor, with both cameras recording at 30 frames per second onto the 128GB of internal eMMC storage in the front camera.

We have argued before that dash cams don’t necessarily need so many pixels crammed into their footage, and parameters like exposure, stability and field-of-view are generally more important than outright resolution. If you want to take advantage of the 24-hour parking mode and time lapse, you have to hardwire the Miofive to your car's fuse box. The amount of time it takes the dash camera to power up and start recording is a very long 10 to 11 seconds for the front camera and 16 to 17 seconds for the rear camera. I have mixed feelings about the driver assistance features on dashcams, which in my experience are not as accurate as those built into newer cars.Again, all this information is vital in case of an incident or even to prove your innocence if you’ve been hit with a speeding fine or there wasn’t adequate signage on the road. I tested this camera in the dry, bright spell at the end of May 2023, so I couldn’t expose it to dingy days or rain.

With a dashcam such as the MIOFIVE you are not alone, and this one generally works well in low light too. it’s not exactly at the top end of the dash cam market, nor is it a budget choice, but it certainly packs a lot of punch for its size. Standout features also include 5GHz Wi-Fi for the quick transfer of video files from dash cam to smartphone – a must, considering the size of 4K recordings and how there’s no removable microSD card to move files to a computer. It will also give you a ‘fatigue warning’ if it thinks you’ve been driving too long …time to take a break. If the camera detects an ‘emergency’ situation ( a bump for example) it will record the footage and save it under the emergency videos tab in the app.

The design of the front camera is identical to the single-camera version, and it's just lovely, hence why it has pride of place on the wife's windscreen. Video quality from the front camera, which uses the same Sony IMX 415 sensor to record 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) as the 4K Dash Cam, is a known quantity, capturing sharp detail in daylight.
