G1W-CB Full Black 2.7 inch 1080P Full HD Car DVR

he G1W is widely regarded as the best dashboard camera, in terms of cost versus features, by camera users and reviewers alike. If you are not familiar with the key features and specs of the G1W, i’ll give you a brief rundown: the G1W gives you astounding 1080p video quality, audio and visual recording capability, an accessible 2.7” screen for immediate playback and viewing, and up to 32GB in storage. Best of all, it gives you all these features and more for a startlingly low price tag that comes out to less than 60$. While the G1W-CB packs all of the G1W’s recording power and impressive price point, it distinguishes itself by employing a capacitor instead of a battery.Until the release of the G1W-CB, capacitor powered dash cams had been a unique selling point of a few, high-end Korean cameras, and for good reason. By using a capacitor as its power source, the G1W-CB bypasses many persistent dashcam problems that are inherent to battery use. Battery life notably degrades over time, with mere months of use shortening battery life by considerable amounts. More importantly, batteries are often the first component of a dashboard camera to fail, requiring relatively costly or time consuming repairs.

- General look and build is fine - Small size
- Easy to use
- Video quality
- The picture is quite smooth, without ghosting
- Lock video in easy way - Simple change day\night mode with one button
- 60 FPS (but only in 720p, for me better is 1080p and 30 FPS)
- Long power cabel (in my case could be a little longer)
- Allowed to choose cycled recording
- Possible to change the length of single video
- Video format (32GB can stored about 340 min of video, 3 min has 288 MB)

Because small part of bracket was broken (and additionaly was falling) I have reported it to Gearbest who refund me some money, I bought another bracket myself and everything is ok. Big plus for Gearbest. In general I am satisfy of this camera and I can recommended this item. Because picture tell more then words, please look at attached photos and video. I can only add here one video but who will be interested, on the youtube account is more records in different conditions, also unpacking video. All videos are in 1080p and default settings.

Suggestion

- In my case bracket drop down after few seconds (also without camera)
- Buttons looks a little cheap (but works fine)
- When I turn on the power (without engine) then camera also turn on, and afterwards when I start engine then camera turn off and I have to manually turn on it, not user friendly (similar like radio, but in this case radio turn on again automaticly). If I start engine in one move of key then everything is fine.
- Personally I do not see any difference between day and night mode

On the memory card I have few files which are broken. Card is new but I can not be sure in this moment if it is issue with card or with camera. I just checked again last 40 files, all are fine.

Awesome product. Angle is extremely good. Easy to use and I love the option of the screen saver. The least time available for the screen saver to kick in is 3 minutes. I find this very helpful as it takes away the distraction of trying to persuade you to look at the camera display instead of focusing on the road which you are supposed to! Cigarette lighter plug cord is long enough to run up the windshield edge, around the side coming down towards the driver's side edge seals and running it across under the dash towards the cigarette plug. I used a Kingston 32GB (class 10) micro SDcard and it worked with no issues at all. Highly recommended product if you don't want to spend too much $$ on a daily driving cam. This should be able to fit your bill for many years to come! Thank you GearBest for carrying an excellent product and speedy delivery (about 10 days delivering to Ontario, Canada).

Suggestion

I find the focus is kinda off (hard to see license plates even on a bright sunny day). Haven't really tried night time recording. Hope it's ok.

Ребята за эти деньги регик просто великолепен. Выглядит очень даже не плохо, микрофон пишет хорошо, но как и у всех регистраторов этого сигмента кнопки люфтят, и микрофон пишет от них треск, но разобрать слова на записи можно. Порадовало наличие русского языка. Порадовала запись в 1080 с полноценными 30 кадрами и 60 кадрами в 720. Хороший фокус 2.0 за счёт которого запись ночью довольно не плохого качества, а подсветка из обычных диодов конечно шлак. Карты памяти в комплекте нет, и необходимо купить хорошую 10 класса чтобы фул hd писал без проблем, на записи номера читаются знаки видно. Все вообщем отлично есть косяки их рассписал в минусах) Кстати есть g сенсор (отключаемый), при срабатывании которого видео файл который пишится помечается от перезаписи и будет всегда на флешке, пока в ручную не удалите или не отформатируете флэшку.

Suggestion

Значит про косяки, по сути он пишет в двух режимах, при подаче питания регик включается и начинается запись, и второй при наличии движения в кадре. Вот второй это шляпа записывает он не по 1,3,5 минуты как указано в настройках а по неизведомой причине по минуте а некоторые ролики по 10 секунд, второй прикол с этим режимом, когда ты едешь в городе и движения в кадре много то все хорошо, запись с небольшими паузами, как в режиме постоянной записи (где-то в пол секунды) а когда несешся по трассе ему надо время чтобы понять что мелькающие кусты или фура на встречной и есть движение, и вот тут между роликами может быть не записанный промежуток иногда секунд по 10, за которые очень много может произойти.... Второе что очень не порадовало, это батарея, ее нет, точнее она есть но от нее он работает секунд 15 и выключается, т.е. питание только от прикуривателя. Вообщем этот регик хорошо пишет и данные минусы только от того что натолкали в него не рабочие функции, его можно было сделать без батареии и только с записью при подаче питания))

Kamera prišla z číny v výbornom stave – je dobre zabalená, kvalitný obal
V balení je USB kábel, nabíjačka do auta, návod, držiak na sklo, kamera
V aute kamera pracuje správne – všetko som skontroloval – nemám pripomienky
Kvalita záznamu nie je až taká dobrá. 720 nie je ostrá – trochu rozmazaná. 1080 je dobrá ostrá kvalita videa. Záznam zvuku je Ok – nešumí. Z nákupom som spokojný


The camera came from China in excellent condition - it is a well packed, quality packaging
The package includes USB cable, car charger, manual, glass holder, camera
The camera is working properly - everything I checked - I have no comments
Record quality is not that good. The 720 is not sharp - a little blurry. 1080 is a good video quality. Sound recording is OK - it does not sound. I'm happy with the purchases

Suggestion

only - low kvality of 720 video

I've owned this camera for about a year and a half now, and here are some good things about the camera:
- Clear image during the day (with lots of settings for resolution/frame rate, exposure, etc.)
- Provision for having date/time/license plate stamped on the video.
- Easy mounting/dismounting. I swap it between my summer and winter cars easily.
- Long power cable. I have the cable routed along my windshield headliner, over the driver door, down the B-pillar, under the driver seat, and then into the cigarette lighter.
- Capacitor (instead of battery) ensures it still works when exposed to high temperatures.

Suggestion

And now for the not-so-good things about the camera:
- So-so night quality. License plates are unreadable most of the time due to glare from headlights. Street signs are OK, though.
- Audio quality is spotty. There is a persistent popping/rattling sound on the audio track.
- The LCD cover (i.e. the hard plastic panel that covers the screen) fell off due to high heat.
- Probably also due to high heat, the top of the frame is starting to deform a bit. Not enough to affect recording performance, but you may need to adjust the mount from time to time.

Even with these little issues/quirks, it's still a good camera and would recommend it for the price.

The quality of this gadget is at the highest level! This small, compact, easy-to-use equipment fulfills all of its tasks. Perfectly records the situation on the road. It is perfect in its simplicity. It is simply sensational! Despite its small dimensions, it perfectly fulfills its task. It works great. Bought for a gift but he landed in my car and rides with me until today. I am very happy with the purchase. This is my next, hit purchase in this store. As always, I recommend the @Gearbest store!

Pros
- Morning video was very satisfying to see.
- All the functions are easily understandable.
- The cable for car charger is quite long, easier for me to place the cable and keep it hidden.
- When in not-moving situation, all the plate license can be seen perfectly.
- Good suction mount. Fit perfectly even in bumpy road
- Perfect colour of the DVR

Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this product considering it budget price.

Suggestion

Cons
- I am really upset on the picture captured using this DVR (not much bother me because it's not the main function).
- Useless night mode, it's just let the flash to be switched on without night video quality getting better (a lot of noise).
- To transfer the video to phone (IOS user) is quite hard, unless you connect it to PC.
- Sound output using the DVR is poor (but still, I'm not bother because you can review it back in your PC).

Отличный видерегистратор. Самое главное из-за чего я его покупал - это отсутствие встроенного литиевого аккумулятора, и как следствие, проблем возникающих с ним. Например перегрев на солнце на лобовом стекле (ну, и соответственно "нехороших" последствий), Всё равно все подключают свои регистраторы к внешнему питанию независимо есть батарея или нет... Качество записи вполне устраивает, ну и цена "вкусная". В меню есть выбор русского языка - что очень даже хорошо :)). Так, что - рекомендую!

Suggestion

Практически нет. А учитывая цену, можно сказать, что нет совсем.
