V1P Pro

Works great, holds up against the heat in Vegas

This the 4th Rexing dash cam I have owned and they have all worked better then expected

I've pretty much only owned Rexing cameras so not much to compare them to, but they were nice when they worked. Lately they've started cycling off and on while driving which plays the lovely startup tune every 10-15 seconds, but that has also led to the video being corrupted and unusable.Both this unit and another one in my other vehicle quit working with wifi; on connecting with my phone the unit would power off dead after about 60 seconds. Initially Rexing's solution was to update the firmware, when that didn't work that was the end of support. I got offered a discount on the next camera.Again I don't have any experience with dash cams, but I would think that it would last longer than 3 years. They were hardwired in with Rexing kits following all instructions. I've purchased and installed 3 of these, and to have 2 of them fail is unacceptable.

I feel much better having cameras recording while I drive.

This is my first dash cam, bought this on a friend's recommendation and because it has front and rear cameras. I do like how it works. Video quality is good. Even though it's touted at 170 degrees for both, I kinda wish it was 180, but this is probably a limitation to available camera tech. Still really good field of view, so not a deal-breaker. Makes me feel protected in that if something happens, I will have evidence to back up my story. Even the first 5 minutes of testing it, I caught someone cutting in front of me without checking the lane.Took a while to figure out how to hide the wires (did the best I could by tucking them inside the lip of the linings wherever possible). Note: the tiny clips they give you don't work worth a damn--too small and adhesive is terribly weak. I tried command strips, those didn't work either. There was some excess wire that I couldn't hide, except by tying it up and shoving it in the glove box. (Someone experienced with pulling door panels and lining off and putting them back on could probably hide them much better.) Also, be very sure where you put the camera before using the super strong adhesive to the windscreen. I got it wrong the first time (too close to the ceiling and rear view mirror), had to prise it off the glass and use the 2nd adhesive patch. As it is, my best option is still behind the mirror, but in order for me to see the screen on the device properly, I have to be sitting in the passenger seat or move the mirror way down and lean way over (requiring me to be in park).Getting it started isn't hard. But there are VERY limited directions available both in the manual and on the website, so you have to be at least somewhat tech savvy to play with it and figure things out. Getting it to connect with the WiFi of my phone in order to view/play videos through the app can be a little iffy at times, taking a few attempts. Navigation of the app isn't exactly intuitive, but again, just a matter of playing around and figuring things out.One thing I can't figure out is why I randomly and frequently hear the "on" chime after it supposedly has already started recording when I start the drive. The first week, it seemed to happen a lot and so it was breaking the 5-10 minute drive into several videos, even after I turned loop recording off (options are 1min/3min/off for length of videos). Parts of the recorded trip are saved in the view list that can be erased or written over, some are saved in the list that's locked and can't be erased (where it records actual accident footage). Don't know why it did this as I was never in any accidents when it recorded. Played around with gravity sensitivity (default is low, I changed to medium). That seemed to help, though it still happens once in a while, though much less frequently. Maybe someone can post a solution to this and tell me what's causing this? Couldn't find anything online.Overall, though, I would definitely recommend getting this dash cam. If you've never used one of these before, maybe buy a more simple one.

Second product I've bought from Rexing, love the quality!

The media could not be loaded. Love the front and rear facing camera. With the smart hardware kit, it also works as a parking monitor if the car gets bumped, and the super capacitor is a big improvement over lithium batteries. I’ve caught 4 accidents on my old v1, including one where I didn’t even realize the other car sideswiped me. Luckily i had my rexing and the video proved to the police that they hit me, but that the jeep didnt even wobble, which is why I didn’t notice or stop. That could have been a huge headache. Do yourself and the other decent drivers out there a favor and get one.

Rexing Camera app is not user friendly. I don’t get live feeds or anything from my camera. I have even argued with the person who set up my camera and thought he set it up wrong. I’ve had it in my car for 4 and a half years now, and it’s basically just a fake camera set up to ward off thieves from stealing or breaking into me car. It looks like it’s recording but it’s not. I even put a memory card in it but it didn’t help.
