Night videos comparison: Time is little off due to LK-9370WD takes a lot longer to start recording but most will match as they are from the same drive.

Startup and shutdown:
LK-9390AD starts recording much faster, around 5 seconds compared to around 20 seconds of LK-9370WD.
I can drive a block before LK-9370WD starts to record.

Also, GPS is locked within 25 seconds of powering up in LK-9390AD compared to 35 seconds in LK-9370wD.
Startup and GPS lock:

Shutdown: shutdown is pretty much the same in both.

[LK-9370WD video is freezing at times. 1st time I see it happening. May need to format cards regularly.]
 
Thanks for doing this comparison Sunny. The overall quality seems a bit low for a ~$400-$500USD camera. The rear camera though is surprisingly clear.

I think the Blackvue DR650 might do a better job overall but I haven't directly compared them. Any thoughts?

How's the build quality on the two Lukas cameras? They look like they are using a cheap quality plastic but it could just be the way the photos were taken. It also doesn't help that they have a ridiculously shiny trim.

Didn't see this reply.
I never had Blackvue so can't compare.
Yes, video quality is not as good for the high price.
The main reason is probably low VBR.
It's built quality is excellent, very reliable ans has lots of good features so one of these is still in my vehicle.

Not sure of both but I use 9390 so can I upload few clips.
