REPOSTED from another thread.
Well, Speaking for myself and my
opinion only, I would pay up to $800 to $900 AU..($500 u.s).. IF..IF..IF...it was reliable and had extra heat management,
because lets face it...heat is what kills dash cams, especially in Australia hot summers. So solve that issue first.
WITH 3 YEAR WARRANTY, Like Blackvue. .
2. Give the
option of moving the camera UP to remove the camera off the GPS mount (like old street guardians)
as there are things like rear view mirrors and rain sensors in the way that mean moving it to the right is a problem.
Can the GPS mount be made in 2 options? side dismount and top dismount? see picture below of obstructions on windscreen.
3. magnetic mount? like next base. How great would it be to be able to just grab the cam off the magnetic mount...or similar?
4a. Shorter rear cables as an
option, EG 3 or 4 mtrs because I can feed the rear camera cable straight over the headlining to the rear and don't need extra cable and weight.
4b. Give people the option of right angle connectors or straight connectors...
5. starvis 2 sensor (Obviously)
6. voice commands (Definitely)
7. Please just include the CPL filter and SD card...you know people are going to buy it anyway.
8. Keep the GPS module the SAME across all cams. That way, you can just swap the old cam for a new cam, later on. Instead of having to take off the current GPS module.
9. Better stock availability for Australian buyers...from viofo.com.au site.
Ready to buy, but nothing in stock.
10. Is it possible to have a telescopic add on lens for people who want more of a telescopic view instead of a wide angle view? DUAL Lenses? Or optional lenses...140 degree and 100 degree but clearer far away images? hey not sure on the tech here?
ALSO, Blackview charge $900 for a camera that overheats and the image quality pretty much sux and is bad from examples on Youtube and the Blackview APP also apparently sux.
If people are willing to pay $900 for blackview, then why not Viofo? - Viofo seem to be innovating and have great image quality, Viofo can aim to knock blackview off their so called kings throne. Viofo should aim to get to the point that if someone asks "What dashcam should i get?" The automatic answer is always VIOFO of course.
What are other forum members thoughts on this?
Final thoughts... BLACKVIEW have phone support in Australia, would be great to have some form of phone support and worldwide phone support in top selling countries?
