Hi Everyone,
My name is Rick Judge and I work with THINKWARE on their North American product reviews program. I saw on the contact page that DashCamTalk does not accept sample dash cams, and to have one reviewed that I should try a member of the forum for a review.
With that, THINKWARE just launched a new dash cam, the ARC 800. I thought I'd see if anyone wanted to test it out with the hope of getting it published on DashCamTalk.
A standout feature is its combination of 4K recording and AI-powered Night Vision, designed to capture details conventional dash cams may miss. The dual-channel ARC 800 also features a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor, Dual HDR, intelligent parking surveillance and optional LTE connectivity, and recently earned a 2026 Red Dot Award for its design.
It's available now starting in the US on THINKWARE’s site, on Amazon and with authorized resellers. Here's an image via DropBox Transfer: https://www.dropbox.com/t/xKgoA2CirsH23EBM
I also copied the release below so you have all the info. Thanks for the assist!

The ARC 800 is built to meet those needs, combining premium imaging technology with smart connectivity and advanced safety features in a compact, easy-to-use design.
Capture More Detail with 4K Recording and Sony STARVIS 2
