The Thinkware F770 is a dual channel dash cam. This Korean camera is one of the growing number of dual cameras that can record 1080p video for both front and rear cameras. While the F770 appears to be an updated version of the previous Thinkware F750 model, the internal hardware is likely very similar / identical. Numerous owners have been able to flash the F770 firmware on the F750 cameras. Note while this camera is typically sold as a dual camera, you can purchase the front camera only and the rear camera separately (model #BCFH-150).
Unlike most dual cameras with that record at low bitrates, the F770 records 10Mbps for the front camera and 8Mbps for the rear camera. Resolution is 1080p at 30 frames per second for both cameras. The camera is based on an Ambarella A7 processor and Sony CMOS sensor. Video quality during the day is very good for both the front and rear cameras. At night the front video is good but the rear video is average. For a dual camera, the video quality is reasonable but not spectacular.
This dash cam comes with WiFi and supporting iOS and Android applications. The F770 also has built in GPS, G-sensor and buffered parking mode. Their are 2 options for the parking mode assuming you have hardwired your camera in your car:
- Motion detection – when motion is detected the F770 records 10 seconds before the event and 10 seconds after the event (file is saved in a separate folder)
- Time-lapse – the F770 records at 1 frame per second while in parking mode. This continuously records while parked.
While the front camera is not the smallest at 110mm x 60mm x 32mm, the camera has a narrow form factor and no screen making it quite discreet when installed. The F770 is slimmer and more streamlined than the F750 model. Also the windshield attachment is a thin piece of plastic which allows the camera to be mounted very close to the windshield.
Overall build quality of the F770 is excellent and reliability has been very good. Thinkware is one of the largest sellers of dash cams in Korea and are known for making good quality cameras as well.

Known Problems
Rattle
A handful of users of complained of a rattling sound coming from their F770. This is due to the buttons of the camera being loose. Not a common problem but can be corrected by Thinkware (replacing the buttons) or using some tape to prevent the rattling.
WiFi Connectivity
Some owners have indicated that WiFi between the camera and the Smartphone (iOS or Android) does not connect or disconnects quickly.
One potential fix:
- Press the WiFi button off / on one time on the camera
- Close the app on the phone (even if running in the background). Restarting the app usually resolves the problem
Alternatively, uninstall and reinstall the app on your phone. Also update to the latest firmware.
