Android Stereo Dash Cameras Reviewed ATOTO vs Joying / EONON

- In this video I will compare a couple of popular add on type dash cams for aftermarket Android navigation radios that plug in to a special USB port on the back. They all have some pros and cons. In the end I went with the most expensive one, the Atoto AC-44P2 due to the better compression of the MP4 video files and a more stable app on the head unit. Below are links to all 3 cameras (Amazon Paid Links). They are listed from most to least expensive but just note that the Joying and Eonon cameras are the same thing, so it would be wise to buy the less expensive Eonon if you prefer that style.

Great upload! I clicked it to see how my Atoto 1080p worked before I installed it on the windshield. I couldn't get the microSD card to work. Then I saw in your vid that you have to scroll up for the settings button. 🔘 It works now. ✅
I chose the Atoto, primarily because I installed the Atoto S8 head unit. After watching your video, I think the Atoto has a somewhat better picture. Thanks for the video comparing the three brands.
How do you like the S8? I'm looking at the S8 Premium for my '07 4Runner.
Have you had any battery drain issues with both the head unit and dash cam installed?
I had mine just sleep when the vehicle was off for over a year with no issues. I installed the atoto Dash Cam today, but switched it to full power down out of caution.
@@ifpo238I first bought an Eonon head unit for my GMC but had to replace it because it was dreadfully slow.
Immediately upgraded to the Atoto S8 and haven't considered anything else since. It's a good buy imo.
About connection issues, did you chech in USB settings on that radio if you have the option for high band-width optimization for HD USB enabled? It's not named exactly like I said, but kinda. You have to get into Radio settings-->Factory Settings-->USB Settings and enable usb 2.0 on all ports and enable checks for "USB HD optimiztion". You have to find out the right factory password for your device. Sometimes the password is on the radio manual but others don't. There are a lot of pages where you can find all or most common ones. Luckly 2 of 3 android radios that I have on each car have the same password (8888), but one of them had a different one (1983), but searching and trying I was able to get into the settings. Also, there are some extra features such auto-start apps (like the dashcam's app) when radio boots up.
I'm thinking about adding a rear camera (not reverse) you think it would work front and back camera at once?
i got the same question. if multple cameras would record and playback at the same time
Enjoyed the video! Question, would you be able to send the apk for the Joying camera, or provide a link to the app? ? I have the Atoto DVR camera but the app for that unit will not load most of the time on my android head unit and there is no update.
Did you get a link for it at all
Does the DVR/Dashcam app work on startup?
I couldn't get a cheap one that supported GPS. Does the ATOTO one support it? In the end, I figured it was too fiddly to save a video while in motion, so I ended up getting a standalone Garmin unit that had buttons and voice commands.
Garmin is 100% better.
Nice comparison! I have the Joying DVR camera and I have the same problems with the GPS coordinates and the speed indications.
Can the ATOTO camera record coordinates and speed?
Also, which one is better in reading the plate information of other cars and how do they compare at night?
Pretty much every dashcam regardless of the manufacturer uses the same camera sensor. That means that everyone one of them pretty much have the same crappy quality when it comes to capturing a license plate number. Linus did a very good video on this..

Thanks for the camera review. I would not have considered file type and compression, just maximum memory card size. It looks like the Atoto is the winner in both regards.
9:54 is the animated wallpaper solely for that head unit, or is it download-able on Eonon or ATOTO as well?
Can download on any Android stereo
Is the dvr software is installed in the camera itself which comes up after pluging it in or pre-installed in the unit?
The camera shows up as a drive in the file manager and the app can be installed from it
@@JackofAllMasterofNone I have the same DVR but the apk file seem to be older version as compared to shown in your video. Can you send me this apk file please ?
Hi Jack. I want to easily sync my recorded footage to Google Photos so that I don't have to remove the SD card from the camera. I could get my 4G enabled Android unit to do that.
Have you come across any USB for Android dash cams that can be recorded directly on the Android device?
Failing that, any whose SD card files can be read direct from Android file manager instead of only being able to be viewed using the camera's proprietary app thanks?
Best regards. Mick.
I haven't found any that do that. It's kind of stupid that you can't at least transfer a saved video from the SD card in the camera to the head unit. I have no idea why they haven't built that in to the program. The reason it doesn't record directly to the head unit is because USB 2.0 isn't fast enough to handle the data and also do other functions such as Android auto or apple CarPlay.
@@JackofAllMasterofNone Noted thanks. Yes it's a shame that the video recording files can't be accessed from the Android head unit file explorer!
Do you know if the Joying camera can record using any camera app or will it only work using the Joying app?
Only the "Joying" app.
Do these dvr dash cam record all the time or only when the car is started.
While running and mine also runs for about 20 minutes after the radio / ignition is off.
I'm also trying to figure out activating the speed monitoring on the front camera but 🤷🏽♂️
It is kind of dark at night..is there any setting that can be changed to make it brighter?
Yes. In the recording tab in the settings there is a slider to increase the brightness level. You can play with it to see what works best for day/night conditions.
Can you get the reverse camera in the dashcam DVR recorded files?
No
I know this is a year late, but hopefully you see this.. Have you ever installed/tried out a Phoenix Automotive android head unit? I ordered the same Joying system you put in your Honda, but I want a Tesla style radio for the wifes suburban. Phoenix seems to be the only manufacturer that offers what I'm looking for.
I have not
Do I need to be on the app all time for it to record? Or can it run and record in the background?
It runs in the background
Is Atoto got the same functionality with the other two? And joying is same as Eonon?
Yes. Basically all similar. Joying and Eonon are identical
I am unable to detect my dash cam on my android auto unit, doesnt show me the external disk to install the apk, its the second dash cam in your video
Hi, can u pull out the apk and send it to me?
My camera app don't have adas function.
Need another app that support adas..
How do you get an animated aquarium on homescreen ? Thx
It's built in to the firmware, but you can just download it on the play store. It's called "Ocean HD". It's just a live wallpaper like you can use on any android tablet or phone.
Do any of these haved a button to save a clip
Not on the camera. It's in the app though but you have to either have it running on the screen or open it up real quick.
how do you get the software to play the footage on a windows computer?
Take out the sd card and put it in your computer. Should just work
If you mount eonon on dashboard the image will be inverted
can i do the setting throhg the lab top as my car doesnt has andriod auto
Would have to be an android tablet
howd you get USB 4 to pop up
It just pops up when plugged into USB port
How are they night time
Decent. Not spectacular.
I have the same camera and mines doesn't do that... You need to replace it.
I have. It's the firmware on the radio that is the issue
@@JackofAllMasterofNone Gotcha. It was very weird, when I seen it ficking like that and it gave me concerns. Glad you got it straighten out
Is it just a webcam?
Dash camera. Not a web cam.
Mayb u need to update it... mines works great
What model stereo are you running?. I have the latest Joying firmware.
can i connect any dashcam to it?
No. It would have to be compatible with Android to work.
He gonna get them quarters stolen right outta the car.

Dude the atoto looks way better, and has a sony sensor. Also that lane departure BS is total 🗑...the inaccurate GPS is also crap. Basically the atoto is miles better.
Honestly none of them are good dash cameras. The question is which one is the more decent dash camera for use with a built-in Android stereo
@Jack of All Master of None What are the negatives of the atoto? I didn't see any mentioned in the video. Also I don't know how you say the video quality is similar but to me the atoto looks way better.
Well my opinion is my opinion..... As far as the video quality.
Also, none of the cameras provide any way for you to transfer the video off the of the camera, such as being able to save the video to the head unit where it could easily be sent wherever you need it. On all of them you have to physically remove the SD card and put it in a computer to transfer the video. There are better options out there and one of them will be the topic of a video I will be releasing soon.
@Jack of All Master of None You could have a card reader to USB that you can plug into your head unit or phone...you don't need a computer. That's not very difficult but yeah it would've been better if you could just pull it.
@@JackofAllMasterofNone Sucks you can't transfer the video off, you'd think with a wired connection they could figure it out.
