Hello everyone, I am writing from Spain, I am 61 years old and I am a complete newbie to dashcams. I want to buy my first dashcam with 2 channels, front and rear, but I'm undecided. I have read comments about the temperature problems of dashcams, and here in Spain it is quite hot, in two hours a car in the sun can reach almost 60 degrees when the outside temperature is 32 degrees.
I have read that the dashcams that get hotter are 4K, so I think should go for a 2K and that is my doubt.
These are my needs:
- 2K front dashcam (rear can be 1080p)
- endure the heat here in Spain
- screen (to be able to modify the configuration in case the wifi fails)
- HDR or some system to minimize flashes from night lights
- 5Ghz Wifi (5Ghz wifi is only for saving the videos on the phone, because 2.7Ghz is too slow) - No very necesary because I can take the SD out and take it to the computer
- parking mode
- not very expensive
At first I thought of the viofo a129 plus duo but I think it doesn't have 5Ghz Wi-Fi and it doesn't have HDR either (it only has WDR????). In the videos, at night, I have seen that there are many reflections of the lights that make it impossible to read the license plates.
I don't know if there will be any camera that meets the characteristics that I need and that is not very expensive.
For all this I am very undecided.
Can you help me?
Thank you
P.S.: I'm sorry for my bad English
