I just saw this dashcam for sale with a built in EMMC 5.1 chip.

I present a beginning list of items for discussion.
Lets debate the pluses and minuses of a camera with a built in memory chip.
1. Sd card failures will be impossible with a built in memory chip.
2. If the camera fails with a built in chip your recording will be irretrievable.
3. You are less likely to have a built in memory chip fail compared to a sd card.
4. Although the built in memory lasts longer than a sd card one day the camera will be junk when the memory does fail.
5. You can not just remove the sd card to quickly and easily download your videos.
7. Internal memory never flies out and gets lost under your car seat.
8. You never forget to reinstall Internal memory.
9. You can not upgrade to have more memory when the memory is built in.
10. Removing the camera from your vehicle to download your footage could result in a broken mount or camera.
11. Downloading 64 GB using USB, wifi, or bluetooth would take a very long time.
12. Warranty issues could not be blamed on the sd card for a dashcam with internal memory.
What does everyone think? Is internal memory overall a good or bad idea? I am not sure.
