I've been looking around for a dash cam and found this deal.
It's their newer model replacing the Xiaomi Yi.
It seems much better camera judging from all reviews on youtube.

The Camera starts automatically when it gets power. I think I'll connect it to my Pioneer unit that has a USB port as I saw on one of the reviews that it draws about 0.3A so it should work ok. I hope :smile:

Update: I got mine and is working perfectly :sunglasses:
When you download Mi Home app, make sure you pick China as location.
On Android you can stop most permissions before you start the app and just leave location and storage.
I was able to upgrade to the last the firmware from mid June :smiley:

####################
THE MENU IS IN CHINESE
####################
Edit:
English version of the app has been released:
http://en.miui.com/thread-624967-1-1.html
Thanks to wavecrest1 :sunglasses:

Apparently it's really easy to use and this video explains the simple menu in detail:

https://youtu.be/f-CO71OIoIg


Not sure whether they will release an update to include Menu in English.

I'm hoping it would have great support for firmware updates.
So far great support of my Mi band 2 that received more than 5 updates since last year

I totally agree with the language issue.
I got one because it's extremely cheap and the menu is so simple that after the initial setup I doubt I'd be going anything on the camera, just transferring videos to my phone using the WiFi feature.
I was going to buy A119, that's very good and popular, but it's hard to justify paying £30 on top at this time :smile:

I honestly don't care if this gets hot or extremely cold. If I can help 1 person I'd be happy :smile:

great price and feature but it will be a hard sell on here with a Chinese only menu. I wish they would at least have English as an option on these things, along with other languages, because their other products are great, typing on my redmi note 3 right now, but the only thing that stops me buying their dash cam is the lack of usable everyday features due to it's Chinese only menu. will wait on the international version but great price Vs spec

Not sure I agree, sure English would be great but dash cam is the kind of thing you install and leave alone until you need it, and when you need it its just the memory card files.. so the menu is a one time thing.

Same sensor + lens on the Anker Roav Dash Cam which also has good reviews on amazon and youtube.

thanks mate, I didn't know about Anker, but you can only get one from
amazon.com :disappointed:
How much did it cost when it was on amazon.co.uk?

Does it work outside China?
Their wireless IP cameras don't! :man:

ha...good to know about the IP cameras! This one seems to be working fine, the reviews on youtube are from all over the world :smiley:

I'd avoid their IP cameras; they all seem to dial home and be unsecured; I bought an escam and the rtsp feed was just ip/port:url. Totally unsecured (and SSH has a default password that can't be changed).

I believe the only issue are controls being round the wrong way due to China driving on right.

Oops, I didn't know they stopped doing it on UK Amazon. It looks like a new product, maybe it's just short of stock. I saw it for £60+ a few weeks ago so this Xiaomi is much cheaper.

64GB SD Card support...
At least its bigger than the 32GB that most cameras are limited to, but 128GB wouldve been better (like the Mobius supports)

The originals might get good reviews but this may well be a cheap Chinese knock off of a cheap Chinese brand.

You wouldn't want to leave one of these recording in the car while parked up, you might just come back to a burnt out wreck!

EDIT - Just watched the footage and was decisively unimpressed! Buy a Mobius Action Camera from a UK retailer and be done with it.
