Thoughts on the new Kenwoods?

[AverageOlderGamer]

I’ve seen Kenwood have some new dashcams. The DRV-A601 and the DRV-A501 which both have rear cam capabilities.
The 501 looks like an updated version of the current 830 but with the option of the rear camera?
They don’t seem to be available in the UK at the moment, only showing on the Kenwood EU site (not the .co.uk)

Look pretty decent to me but interested in your thoughts......

I’m interested in the Kenwood line as well, but I can’t find any reviews or feedback on them, except one review on Amazon and a couple of YouTube videos. I’m struggling between the Kenwood DRV-A501WDP and the Nextbase 422GW.

Surprised nobody else has posted anything else on the Kenwood units.

EDIT: there are some reviews of the Kenwood units on the bestbuy.com site, most are favorable, good to hear.

Just seen on the UK Kenwood website, they have added a new wedge type dash cam also the A700W.
It says it’s got rear compatibility.
Hadn’t seen this one when I’ve been looking over Christmas.

Yes I don’t see the new one on the Kenwood US site. I ordered the DRV-A501WDP, which includes the rear camera as well. I’ll post back once I receive it and get it set up.
