Hi Black Panther, I tested 2 Boblovs only my first body Cams, first the M5 is easier to use, and buttons are W easier to push as well. for security these are great, for day to day people , they are big and clumsy, they are also need a proper mount to wear on your body. I believe they all are similar. you also want large battery Life. hope that helps. subscribe, appreciate the support, LiveLifeLoud Cheers and Cheeks Out!
Hey Steve, thank you for reviewing this. Do you have an idea on the longevity of the battery? I would look to use it on motorbike for 4 or 5 hour bike trips. Would the battery die in this time, if constantly recording? TIA
hi Ben, check the stats, I believe it lasts a long time , it may work, and if you can connect to a power source like a back up power bank , u will be fine, solid unit , LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!
Hi, thanks for the video. If you use it as a Dash Cam do you need to plug it into a power source? Won't it just work from the 4000mAh battery? Thanks 😊
a thought would be to utilize the long battery life and go wireless as a dash cam, keeping the back up battery with you and swap as needed. Most are not in the car any more than a full day, 8 to 10 hours, not accounting for stops where you can turn off.
Nice review. I wonder if you can help me by answering some questions: 1) Is it possible to completely disable the police siren? 2) How good is the night vision quality and does it capture a lot? 3) Can the sound of it starting up be disabled? Thank you

Hi Steve...great video as always. Thank you. A question you might be able to answer...I've been using my Boblov M5 for a long time now with great results, both as a bodycam, and as a dashcam. It's given me constant peace of mind. However, I regularly house-clean the unit by deleting all videos, audio, logs etc from the menu via my Chromebook. All of a sudden I noticed that the memory capacity of the built-in memory card reduced...first to 90plus gigs, and now to 74plus gigs...this appears on powering up after house-cleaning. I've tried resetting the unit by inserting a sim removal pin into the small hole near the charging port (marked 'R') whilst power is on. Inserting the pin turned the unit off after which I immediately pressed the power button once. When I then power up the memory capacity reads 74plus gigs, so resetting in that way made no difference. Is this a normal degrading of a built-in memory card which is expected after a couple of years or am I missing a trick ? Thought I'd ask the boss ! Many thanks. Jay
thanks Jay, never seen that happen, there I other files on there , maybe u didn't see them? not sure I used it for walking through a property and with a motion sensor to catch wildlife, has its positives for sure I would check with boblov for more troubling shooting, LiveLifeLoud, Cheers a d Cheerks Out!
@@ProductPatrol Thanks for your prompr reply Steve. I've certainly looked for other files, in vain, but your advice to contact Boblov is good. Many thanks again for your uploads. Wishing you well.
@@ProductPatrol Just an update 6 months on...I contacted Boblov who responded with an acknowledgement of my query. They said they would look into the issue and reply but never did. My SD card still shows just over half the original memory capacity after I've completely cleared all files. In and of itself it's not an operating issue but does seem to suggest that capacity will decline over time. Hope you're well. Jay
Hey 👋 And how you download the videos from the camera to your phone 📱. Thankfully Edit: can you connect to wifi or Bluetooth? Or they get some app for the camera.
I don't believe so, the image was 'shaky' when he drove over potholes. I too was only interested in image stabilization, none of the Boblov bodycams offer this. I have emaild Boblov about this feature.
Thank you for this vidwo on the M5. I have 2 Miufly EH15 1080P bpdy cams. How would you compare the M5 to the Miufly? For what i do, I need accurate GPS, clearest video, clear mic pickup, and long-lasting battery. Thank you!
hi Thomas, thnaks for watching, this was my first body cam. they are made to work but due lack the easy options of other recording devices. LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!
I have been using the B4K1 and C18 for a few months and had problems with them crashing. I upgraded to the M5 but I have no audio when I import into my editing software, can someone help me?
not sure, but great question, everytime I bring in a video and no audio, because my audio was not recorded on the video, usually happens more with smartphone videos, good to know when u figure it out, please let us know
Apparently they use some kind of proprietary audio codec. There is another review on YT which mentions the solution. I don’t recall the name of the reviewer… he does food deliveries IIRC and is very quick to reply to any questions. EDIT: the reviewer is TheRussRyde 😊
So, I'm an armed guard, I had an incident with a fire arm the other day, and no cameras outside on the building. It became a he said, she said situation due to no camera. My lofe was threatened multiple times, and it just was a bad situation. Long story short, I'm looking for a decent body cam to cover my butt in situation like that. Honest opinion, would this can do the job, or should I get something else.
hello Felicisimo, thanka is for watching appreciate the lovely comment, check out some more videos and subscribe, appreciate the support, LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!
Add stabilization to this i would buy three of them. PROBLEM is these look like trash when you wear them way to shaky. Why you showed no footage. A phone makes a better dashcam.
yes that's always a concern, us dthis one in my minivan, still working great, I like the bigger model then the kj121, plus the buttons are easier to push, LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!
I think Boblov uses the 1st generation android cameras, they were terrible and so shaky. Image stabilization is standard now and old tech. Can't believe Boblov would not add this feature to cut costs.
hello iwo2024, not sure about reasoning there, this is what's available, I tried 2 of them they gave me for reviews, I enjoyed the bigger model, touch buttons much easier, if u will use them , then they serve a purposes, mounting kit would be nice as well, LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!
Ok, nice camera and all but seriously...what the fuck does anyone need a police siren and blinking red/blue lights on a fucking body cam...my goodness 😳 😑 😐 🙄
@@ProductPatrol not making fun of YOU, I'm sure it's a great camera. I just find it funny as hell to put that feature on a body cam. I'm an armed security officer on the side and recently purchased the Cammpro i826 1440 128gb model and have not been disappointed. Like other thing, the Boblov had features the Cammpro doesn't have and vis versa, the Cammpro had features the Boblov didn't have. I ultimately went with the Cammpro based off of the fact for me, I think may be a better camera, but we'll see with time. I have been able to get two 8 hour shifts out of mine before having to recharge the battery. But again, maybe that's because it's still brand new and again with time, I'm sure it will come down to having to charge it every night. But great review and still a funny video using that damm siren...🤣😂
Not Happy Purchased M5 and red laser not work . Bobov . said can not reply until a few days later . when the retuirn policy runs out : Unfortunately I can not recommend this business
hi Neil, thanks for the feedback, there is a warranty, maybe that can help ? you are in Thailand wow, send me an email, LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!

Hello, Can I record a continuos 10hr video? With no pausing or stoping?
it states on the product details 15 hours recording not sure without pausing or stopping. has a big 4200 mah battery.
what type of USB cable does the M5 have?
hello, on the video there is the link to the product on Amazon, it should say there, in not sure, have to check my vehicle to see, LiveLifeLoud, Cheers and Cheeks Out!
I checked, it's a mini b charger
Very well done review. Not long and boring, but very informative and to the point. Appreciate it!👍
many thanks for the appreciation, it was a great camera!
Can u charge it up and leave it unplugged from power in motion detection? Will it record in the vehicle without connecting power?
Lazer for what purpose? Police siren for what purpose?
not sure , but extra options, the siren is cool
Does the Boblov M5 show your speed when used as a dash cam? Any speed info at all? Posted speed (changes) etc?
not I know, thanks

In all fairness about the charging cord length ... you have the first and only car I've ever seen with the lighter plug down next to the floor.
