I'm fairly new to dashcams but I'm looking for a good quality camera with a screen and a moveable base for under £140, primarily interested in image quality with little need for additional features.
I'm looking at Mio Mivue, Garmin, Vicovation and Nextbase cameras and noticed that most use 2-4MP sensors but the Nextbase 512GW uses a 6.8MP one. I know there are other factors involved but that's such a huge step up I would expect next generation clarity and yet the footage doesn't really look much different from it's near rivals. Can anyone explain this, maybe it's just Youtube compressing the footage so the advantage can't be seen but I don't really buy into that.
