Novatek A118 dashcam - My opinion after installing

So I installed the dashcam on Saturday and have played with it a little bit over the weekend. I paid $72 shipped with the GPS antenna and received I believe the latest revision of it. This isn't going to be an in depth review, there are a few of those already. Feel free to ask me anything though!

What I like:

  • Video quality is more then adequate
  • GPS logging works great with the Registration Viewer application and you can see the entire trip and what path you took as well as speeds
  • Small size and form factor makes it very easy to mount discretely
  • The super wide angle lens makes it see almost the entire windshield at once!

What I don't like:

  • It doesn't log G Sensor data, it's more like an on off switch that will hard lock video files with a large enough bump. I wanted live data for Autocross racing.
  • Max memory supported is only 32gb, that's about 10 hours of video with it's 1080p 30 FPS setting. Enough but I wouldn't mind a 64gb.

Sample Video and installed pictures.

Yes I had a little fun in the video but I made sure there was nobody within about 1/4 mile so I wasn't going to put anyone in danger. (not that there was any danger anyways...)
