Hi new poster here, as I drive a taxi here in the UK I needed some sort of decent cam for my job and use, after a little bit of research I decided to pay nearly £100 on this model (nb 312gw deluxe), as it had good reviews.
First opinions of it...it looked decent, although a bit fiddly with the buttons but in general nice and neat... however, after a few days it kept playing up, the main thing it kept doing was that it would stop recording, or it would record but miss bits making gaps on unrecorded footage, at one point it crashed when i tried to turn it off, now this (messing about with the cam) was hardly acceptable if I had passengers in on a long journey.
So...I took it back because it was obviously faulty....not for my money back, no....to exchange it for another one such is the reputation that nextbase have... I kept faith and trusted this was a one off....
Now ...I fit the second unit and guess wot ...it does exactly the same, it stops working, sometimes freezes and just malfunctions, so taken it back for a full refund!
So what is wrong with these, I look further and it seems other brands, decent brands too do this....???
Are there any decent dash cams out there that works?? I drive for hours and need a hardworking cam that will last day and night.
Thoughts?
