Three things should be improved:
1. More advanced suction mount.
The current mount is too basic. On the left side you see the suction mount from Prestigio DVR. It has at least 4 nice features:
1. It is smaller and more stylish.
2. The suction mechanism is "rotate" instead of "pull" which saves space.
3. The wires can be plugged in in the mount itself (this hides the wires from the view).
4. It can be rotated also horizontally (quick horizontal rotation is important in order to capture, for example, conversation with a police officer that has stopped the vehicle).
2. Make illumination more discrete.
I found the illuminated buttons and the blinking blue LED very disturbing when driving at night. I would prefer more discrete look as it is provided by Prestigio DVR on the left side. In Prestigio DVR the blinking orange LED is barely visible and it can be seen only if looking directly into it (not visible from side angles). This design distracts the driver less and draws less attention to the device from the passengers.
3. Start recording before charging the capacitor.
Currently when plugging in the power adapter the camera first charges the capacitor (which might take even 10 seconds) and only after capacitor is charged the video recording is started. It would be wise if the capacitor is charged in the background while recording.
