Need suggestions for a dashcam. Budget is around 10-13k front and rear.
  • People who've switched from a regular dashcam to a Starvis 2 dashcam, was there a big difference in the low light performance?
  • 3k Starvis 2 dashcam or a 4k regular dashcam?
  • Has anyone had problems with lithium ion batteries in Indian summers?
 
Idk about the stavis 2 models but i have 70mai A500S on both my cars. They have performed really well during night time, whenever i wanted to make insurance claims never had an issue with quality of footage. Only downside i had with the cameras was they would overheat in summers when outside temp is around 40c. Might open it and add some heatsinks.

I have a supercapacitor based dashcam.
Never had any problems with it heating up.
For Indian summers (and with how hot cars can get), Li-ion seemed very concerning to me, so did not opt for it.

As for Starvis 2, if the budget allows for it, get it.
It does make a difference.
4K vs 3K is less of a concern.

I have a Viofo A139Pro and it's been fantastic so far.

Supercapacitor seems to be the smarter choice. Qubo recently released a Starvis 2 dashcam with supercapacitor battery though I've heard mixed reviews about them as a brand overall.

DDPAI Z50 and Woodman 4k seem to be another options with a supercapacitor battery in the 10-13k price range. Maybe I'll do more research on those.

There was an update and it fixed the issue of randok restarts after heating. I'm talking about the A500S.

I use a non Starvis Dashcam but if I were to buy one today I'd get the Starvis one. I have heard that it's better. So why not get that.

If you buy a dashcam, make sure you get the anti glare filter.
