Looks like a good camera. Having a LCD screen to view footage is a must so that you can show it to law enforcement officer. There is no time to download the footage to a computer when you are at the scene of an accident.
The other difference between the 422 and the 522 is the 522 has wifi instead of bluetooth stronger connection to ohone for video download , great detail video
Hi Dana, great question. I considered the same approach for my install, which should work just fine. That being said suction cups on windows over time, especially with extreme temperature changes, can sometimes let go. I have experienced this with radar detectors, GPS’s and cell phone holders. Just be prepared to have to reattach it sometimes. A super clean window and a little moisture or cooking oil (I never tried) around the inner edge can help on the suction cup side.
@@Donslife thanks for the reply Yes I did format the SD card but still has the same problem How should I know about SD card speed that match with dash cam? Thank you
Extreme cold has been the only issue. -40F I leave it disconnected until the cabin temperature rises. Otherwise it may have trouble booting up and keep power cycling. This problem is common for so many devices if exposed to these temperatures
Don't buy this camera, it is garbage. The rear view attachment wobbles all over the place creating video that is useless. The ball joint on the arm has gone loose so as you are driving the cam begins to fall and point upward and you can't even record the road at all but, strangely, also major psychological difficulty is created by the SOS system. So we signed up for the SOS but it repeatedly throws us out and doesn't work. Before owning this cam we never thought about being in an accident, just the type of thing you deal with if it happens. Now that the SOS doesn't work my wife actively worries about what will happen if she does have an accident. Total garbage, don't do it.

It is good. For a small amount the 522GW is even better
Thanks for this detailed video.
No problem
Great video thinking about buying a Nextbase next week. Subbed.
I appreciate the compliment! I just bought another car and will be getting another dash cam soon enough. I might go for the same model.
@@Donslife You're welcome Don.

Obviously no one did any proofreading for the text on the set up steps. No S on Saving. 🙂
What did you do with the suction cup thing? I want to use that instead of sticking it to the windshield.

I have 422GW Dash Cam, but it stop working during recording, could you please tell me why?
Thank you
I am not sure. Have you tried a factory reset or formatted you card? Also make sure you card is fast enough for the camera’s write speed

How has this dash cam hold up to extreme heat and cold? Do you leave it attached to the windshield all the time?

Wil that camera connect to the stereo?
If you are referring to Alexa features it uses your phones Bluetooth for audio.
Shut that music off man its not a music vider
I agree. One of my first videos and super terrible. I promise they get less terrible 😣
