3" touchscreen with dual camera and GPS logger
Hello.

This is my first video post, related to this unit bought last year: "3" touchscreen dual cam DVR with GPS logger and 3D G-Sensor", after 6 months of use.

The unit in sale (just as reference; bought to other vendor):

Raw video file (122Mbyte, both cameras enabled, under sunlight):

Pros: well priced, considering it's functionalities.
Cons: poor video quality (640x480 recording 1 channel, 1280x480 both channels).

My opinion:
In general it performed well.
The GPS tracks quickly the satellites (below 1 minute from power on, at open areas).
The configuration menu is simple (it offers few things to do).
Survived to summer heat (permanently affixed to the windshield, exposed more than 8 hours inside an hermetic vehicle under direct sunlight, between 22-38°C external temperature): just in very few situations at hot climate started recording bluish video (like posterized effect), and was quickly solved turning the unit off and on again.
The term "HD" is tricky: it doesn't records even near 720p; just "glues" two 640x480 signals to produce an 1280x480 video file (12Mbps average, 30fps).
Video quality isn't enough to identify the license plate from a car stopped just in front of you.

Best regards.
