I've got a san disk 32gb micro sd that I had spare just to use while figuring the camera out etc what card would you recommend? You can also add a title screen to the video and it will tag on a NextBase logo at the end of the video too.

I’ve not even mentioned the great Wifi feature, essentially, once App is downloaded to your iOS or Android phone/tablet you can connect to the CAM and perform file management and Live viewing from your car seat (not driving of course) … not sure how often I personally would use this, but could be helpful if I wanted to see how many Facebook ‘Likes’ I could get for beating the Stig around the Top Gear track. One of the key features of the Nextbase 412GW is its 1440p resolution, which allows for clear and detailed video recording. As the dashcam includes it’s own WiFi hotspot for viewing the videos on your phone, you can imagine that streaming that size of video file to your phone to view, edit or share could be a little time-consuming. This also appears to be the case for the protected half - older ‘protected’ files are deleted and replaced with newer ‘protected’ files. I hit a slight issue though as, after connecting, I was met with a near-constant ‘please wait’ while the top half of the screen was flickering away.

It’s far quicker and easier to simply plug the dash camera or SD Card into a computer, rather than connecting via a smartphone. I’ve tested the 412GW in daylight, bright sunlight, twilight, rain, darkness and everywhere in between and the results have been consistently positive.

The video quality across a range of lighting conditions is excellent and, while the 140o lens isn’t the widest view on the market, it is more than enough to give a good view of the road. Please remember that after this test your Dash Cam will once again need charging as the battery will be flat.There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data.

You can also retrospectively protect or unprotect files very easily in the gallery mode by, again, simply tapping the red shield. Straight out of the box, the Nextbase 412GW comes with a powered, quick release mounting system that can be fitted to the windscreen via a suction cup or an adhesive pad, both included.

Fr Christmas brought me a NextBase 412GW in 2018 with a 32gb NextBase sd card , replaced the card in March 2019 as apparently that type of card was troublesome to other users also . The NEXTBASE 412GW dash cam comes with a 16GB Micro SD card which, in theory, can hold up to 2 hours of footage. When you start recording it can take around 1 minute for the GPS location to be active and this is shown with the icon in the bottom corner.
