- I thought I was going to love this dashcam....
I wanted a new and improved dashcam for my 2024 Kia EV6 GT. I though this was going to be the one. I don't think it works well with EVs.

I subscribed dude, let me know when you find a top quality camera that actually Works and is crispy and clean I don’t care about how much it cost like you said you got to pay to play💯
this one does work, just not with evs without alternators. The reason they do it like that instead of key on I would assume is because it checks voltage to make sure it doesnt drain the battery in parking mode too low so the car wont start. If it sees the voltage go too low itll shut off the camera. Which in my opinion is a great feature to have. T=But I bet it was just easier for them to use that voltage as the parking mode engagement instead of working in a key on key off mode switch which a lot of the cheaper dash cams have. its a great camera with great quality just not for cars like his. Any internal combustion car this will have absolutely no issues with
Great stuff :). Not enough coverage on this unit, and it's rather confusing that it's advertised with features that aren't implemented yet.
We need more Golf R videos my man!
agreed
Interesting.... I have a Mustang Mach E and installed the Thinkware Q1000 in same place which works fine. However..... I also have the Nextbase IQ, mostly for the parking mode and remote real time monitoring for my 2021 Ford Bronco. I felt it needed more protection in parking mode with Real Time updates since it will have top off often in summer. Anyway, it works very well and have been happy with it. Yes, it is big and I do mount it at same location as your EV, but I still do like it. I tried both the Thinkware and and Blackvue flagship models and their remote monitoring is far inferior to nextbase IQ, especially Blackvue 900, which the Nextbase replaced and its now a door stop. If it helps, they are suppose to be improving it with software updates. I heard Nextbase did have good support for previous models, although this is my first.
Yea the next base in my opinion is the best LTE dash cam for parking mode on the market. it is bulky but my windows are tinted anyways so you wouldnt be able to see it from the outside anyways. I also agree with you about the parking mode protection being the best. The majority of other lte dash cams dont even have the motion sensing notifications and the ones that do dont work half the time. The nextbase works all the time although sometimes it takes 10-20 secs to get a notification. but to me thats still worth it. Ive heard good things about Drone XC which is the lte dash cam that can be hooked up to a few different security/remote start systems like computer T13 pro and has gps and all that was well. I might get the T13 and just add on the Drone XC since itll be integrated into my 2 way security system as well.
Nice video I just bought 4k with rear camera just want to give try if don't like it then I might return it but can you please guide me how can I hard wired install them in fuse box? I have Toyota Estima 2014 model.
Great review, the camera seems to have crappy image quality from the samples we've seen. Omnivision sensor instead of what should be baseline Starvis 2 sensors for 2024.
Maybe try cam on a different circuit?
I have my older Nextbase on an ODB2 port power adapter (with permanently on or delayed off feature), but don't use paring mode like yourself.
I’ve got this in my GT, exact same as you 4K in the GT with front and rear camera and the notifications do my head in. I’ve turned the sensitivty down but it’s still very annoying. I apparently got a traffic violation for an offense a few weeks back come through the post today. So I took out the SD card to look back, and there are massive gaps on the day in the SD card, and so I can’t see the time this traffic violation was meant to have happened. Anybody else get that? My previous NextBase camera (which was a different model on a previous car) would record everything. Anybody else get this issue?
Is it 2 wire or 3 wire hardwire cable?
It’s a two wire system only.
I don't believe it would work with my ICE vehicle (2014 Chevrolet Caprice). It has a "smart charging" system and it will vary the voltage levels all the way down to 12.3 to 12.5 while driving if the starter battery is fully charged. Nextbase could have simplified the power issue by using an accessory power input to detect when to enter/exit parking mode, but that would have meant the OBD power adapter would have to have some logic built into it to know when to turn on/off the accessory power input to the IQ. I agree with your assessment of the IQ.
It's such a strange decision. They could also incorporate gps or motion logic at least. I just don't understand with all the tech in this thing why they [unintentionally] crippled it so badly.
I like mine, see my post at the top
I was really looking forward to this camera, as most are just junk. But the image quality is just crap. Night time plate capture is a joke. And I saw a company rep talk about how much time they spent on image quality, haha.
I have a more base Nextbase that does 1440 p For the price, I have no issues,. Mine has a small base that has the camera mag attach to it. Easy on ands off.
I feel like I got robbed payed $900 for this Pos and boy I’m going to return this first thing tomorrow
I feel your frustration.
for 1k i dont care how advanced that dash cam is, lol. you’re right though, form factor is very odd.
I think this camera is absolutely rubbish I feel like i have been robbed by buying it avoid like the plague
Thankfully I’m within my 30 day return window!
For the price, the Image quality is garbage! I would not even consider buying a 4k or 2k Dashcam that doesn’t have Sony STARVIS 2 image sensors installed!
Duh… why bought it in the first place??? You saw the design and now your pouting how its.. bad?!? Your like click baiter just to get views. I wasted 2 mins of my time
Don’t be ridiculous. I bought it because I thought it work in my car. Fun fact. “Click baiters” don’t spend hours installing and uninstalling equipment get get a click. Be glad it only cost you two minutes. It cost me several hours. Good day.
