*********************************
Beelink CA1 Unboxing with sample videos: I had to upload videos to YouTube and then download video at very low sample rate since my video editors can't play the raw files with .vmhx extension.
*********************************
Package contents: 1 x BEELINK CA1 Car DVR, 1 x Sucker Cup Mount, 1 x Power Cable, 1 x Car Charger, 1 x Photoshot Button, 1 x Installation Tool, 1 x English User Manual
[Note: Mount is pretty snug but the small lock tab doesn't do anything]

Snapshot sample using WiFi App:
*********************************
Folders, files and bit rate: Due to weird video file format, even mediainfo can't read it properly.
It's around 100mb for 2 and half minute clip so I calculated it to be around 5.33 mbps which is pretty low.
File name doesn't have date time.
*********************************
Audio/Video Quality:
Audio is not there so far or at least not in the players I play it with. I'll test more players and see if I hear audio.
Video quality is not bad considering the low bit rate but it lacks detail and really not an option since there are much better dashcams in that price range.
Surprisingly, night video looks better compared to daytime.
*********************************
More coming soon...
