I purchased this Mini 0803 for my cross-country road trip two weeks ago. I have found two problems so far.
1) Most of the time it was reliable. However, it failed to start twice during my 9-day trip. When this happened, it kept beeping quickly, with the "E-Prance" logo on the screen. At the beginning I didn't know what to do. Later I learnt that I had to hold the power button for around 20 second to shut it down. It worked fine after restart.
I uploaded an video to Youtube. It was recorded when this happened for the first time:
2) Another problem was the memory card. I transferred video clips to my external hard disk every evening and then deleted those files on the Micro SD card (also the GPS files). However, sometimes deleting files did not free up space of the Micro SD card so on the second day there was no sufficient space for recording.
The SD card I use is a 64GB Samsung Evo Micro SDXC (not the Pro version recommended by many people) and I used SmartDisk_FAT32_tool to format it since formatting a 64GB micro SD card in the Mini 0803 was not supported.
The solution I used to this problem was to format it with SmartDisk_FAT32_tool again in order to free up space. Not sure if this problem was related with the dash cam, or it was an issue of the Micro SD card itself.
