Hi
I have been looking for some time for a new dash cam and have had a lot of help from many of you on here.
Finally I have narrowed down my list to two cameras the Vantrue N4S which is more than I originally budgeted for coming in at 250 euros
or the Redtiger F17 Plus 4-Channel Dash Cam with 2.7K Front Recording & Sony STARVIS 2 which with discount comes in at 186.66 euros
or the Redtiger F7NP 4K Front Rear Dash Cam with discount comes in at 112.00 euros which is under my budget
I really do not know enough about the quality of dash cams to make a choice as to what each one would be different to each other but I mainly need the camera for parked mode.
Will I really see much difference between the cameras for what I require from them?
 
Never heard of the brand. Worth asking on dashcam forum. Viofo are usually one of the best brands for picture.

It would have helped in the insurance settlement if I had a Dashcam looking both in and out so they could have seen her head hit the window and give her a mild concussion.

A hopsital report should take care of that though.

In the UK dashcams appear hardly used any more after a boom some years ago. The issue is over here the Insurers seem to operate most claims on a knock for knock basis ie if they can apportion any blame whatsoever on you they do so, and then they simply decide between themselves the amount of blame on each driver eg 70:30 and settle it that way. The advantage for them is they can put the premiums up on both drivers so potentially recover more money. The 2nd reason is law enforcement has been using them as evidence against drivers in accident cases, again making many reluctant to install them. I believe UK law allows the seizure of anything that might contain evidence at a crime scene. Better to face insurance premiums than get locked up for some stupid mistake that gets caught on your dashcam.
