WOLFBOX G840S 12" 4K Mirror Dash Cam with 5.8GHz WiFi, Night Vision

What a fantastic piece of kit it has been in my van now for coming up two years. You could not buy better in my opinion for the money the images are crystal clear on the small or on a bigger screen if you export them. I use it as a rear view mirror in a van and the angle of the lens perfectly eliminates any blind spots when I’m overtaking or pulling in front of a vehicle, that’s a lifesaver as far as I’m concerned. I did have cause to contact customer service and frankly you could not get better there either, Mark was excellent. Top marks all round from me.

There are two reviews here. G840S & G840H =============================================================== Review for G840S: Although initially I though the device is quite bulky, after installation and setup I quickly changed my mind. I had doubts that the device will 'fit' my mirror but once again I was wrong. Just after few seconds of moving it around it fit perfectly and I was stunned how securely it holds. Installation: one important thing to remember is that the camera is on one side of the device as such the device itself will slide more to one of the sides of your mirror. Initially I thought that this will bring the 'picture' too close to my face, but actually it feels very natural and comfortable. Video: I have different 4k camera in another vehicle and after few days of driving and comparing the quality it is hard distinguish the difference. Needless to say, I spent a lot of time doing my research before the purchase, so when this one landed on my lap I was surprised with this shot in the dark. Box: the box comes with a number of gadgets that you can but don't have to use. 1) Beside the camera itself and the mounts, you can use the GPS device. This is not compulsory, but if you want the GPS/speedometer info, it’s a must. The add on is very small, consequently you can conveniently install it behind the mirror. From driver's perspective you won't see it at all and it won't impact your vision. 2) The other device is the reverse camera that captures picture in the industry standard (for reverse cameras) of 1080p. Initially I thought that the 140 angle on reverse camera (170 front) is insufficient but after driving a few days, I can confirm it's perfect. After reviewing videos I have no problems reading number plates, so in the case of unfortunate accident, you can stay assured, the evidence will be there. 3) Cloth, nice bonus for cleaning the camera or device itself 4) Plastic wedge to feed and hide the cable during installation 5) Few cable holders (there are doing just fine during hot day). Also they can be used multiple times so if you decide to swap the cable (during hardwire installation) this can be done easily. Before installing one or few make sure you are confident if your choice as they hold very well. 6) Power adapter 7) Instructions Build quality: The device feels nice in hand. You get the premium feeling and after opening the box, I almost felt like it's Christmas. Pros: Material, Quality, Ease of installation Cons: this one is difficult. NONE in short, but if I was to try and find one thing I don't like, well... not for me but the reverse camera cannot be mounted directly on the window. I know there are people who would prefer do it. Consequently its a matter of preference I guess. Would be nice to have an option to chose which reverse camera option you prefer... but I'm nitpicking now. =============================================================== Review for G840H: It pleases me to be given opportunity to once again test another product of this company. A frind of mine was recently involved in a car accident and regrets not having one. Cutting to the chase just like G840S, the G840H provides you with the same quality feeling. The reverse camera feels heavy, but it must be due to its very good build quality. I have seen some plastic reverse cameras which I would not risk putting outside of the car, but this one, without a doubt in my mind can be easily installed over your number plate and configured with the DashCam to be your reverse prinking camera. The box comes with everything you need to do the initial installation. If you need the 24/7 parking mode enabled, a hardwire kit is required. This is standard across the industry. The hardwire kit is not expensive and you can get a good one for areound £25. Picture quality: The camera records in 1440P and can be configured in settings to use either H.264 or H.265 compression. On the paper, 265 is better as offers better compression and more footage on the same memory card. In my private opinion I prefer the old H.264. I found it provides marginally better quality picture and the loss in form of bigger video files is the price I'm prepared to pay. Let's be honest, the 256GB cards are not that expensive these days. Reverse camera records at 1080P which is industry standard. Front and back camera angle coverage: Front record at 170 and captures nicely everything you need, even vehicles that are practically parked next to you. Back camera provides 140 degrees angle and this is everything you will ever need. There is currently nothing with wider angle or better quality from what I can see, but you are welcome to do your research. Memory card: The box comes with 32GB memory card. This is perfect to get the DashCam up and running straight away, nevertheless I do recommend upgrading to at least 128GB, or 256GB if you plan on using parking more. Installation: This cannot be any simpler. If you don't count the time to plug it into the power source, I doubt it will take you more than 30 seconds to get in installed. It's hard to describe it, but my advise it to simply put it over the mirror and wiggle around until you feel it sits comfortably, and then secure with straps. Settings: The camera has a huge screen and it is super easy to configure from software perspective. I do prefer this over cameras that need to be connected to over iOS/Android system. It is super responsive and provides immediate feedback. Box: Comes with everything you will need to get the device up and running. I have attached picture with items available in the G840H box. Pros: Just like G840H, the product is of premium quality. Also, if you like to see clearly what is behind you and could use a bit of zoom, think no more. The dash cam screen is big enough to provide you just that, and not big to make you feel like it covers the windscreen. Further to the above the cam comes with GPS so it can also record your speed and location. This is a huge advantage in case you have an unfortunate encounter and someone refuses to accept liability. Cons: This is more of preference. Although the 1440P video is perfectly sufficient to read the numberplates and to be used as evidence, I do prefer the 4k quality cams. If this is also your preference G840S from the same seller ticks all the boxes.

Pretty decent mirror dash cam. Ive upgraded from a bog standard front one to a front and rear. Easy to install and pleanty of cable length to have round the top or bottom of car (especially the rear camera) rear camera easy to install and discreet in the back. I havent used the parking sensors as my car already has this. The functions and settings are easy to use as well as the app. I bought a higher memory sd card but it comes up with an error so unsure of why this is. Would be nice to be able to get a bigger memory sd card than the standard size you get. Only niggles really is that you cant minimise the cameras on the mirror. You can have either one cam fully or half and half of front and rear but cant minimise to small boxes (would be a nice feature) and to delete footage from the app its a pain as you have to turn WiFi on at the dash cam and connect your phone and then go into the app (only one dash cam is on as well) would be better if you can access without all thos faffing about. All in all its nice quality, 4k picture so clear and crisp. Would defo reccomend especially with added features with GPS ect. These are great to have for safety on the road.

This has to be the best dash cam i have owned, it has been fitted for 3 years and I’ve never had a single fault. Unlike the countless amount of dash cams I have been through from bigger brand names. The reverse camera is a game changer too. Easy to fit, plenty of cable and great customer support. I just regret not buying the mirror mount with it so I could get rid of the factory mirror altogether. Well worth the money.

This dashcam worked brilliantly for several months - really clear video quality on both front and rear cameras, easy to set up, and reliable recording. I was very happy with it. Then suddenly the rear camera stopped working and kept showing “Rear camera not detected” error. I tried all the troubleshooting steps in the manual but nothing fixed it, which was frustrating. However, the customer service was absolutely fantastic. Mark responded quickly to my messages and was really helpful throughout. After confirming I’d tried everything with the original complete camera set, he immediately arranged to send a replacement main unit at no cost. The whole process was smooth and professional. The replacement arrived quickly and works perfectly - rear camera is back to normal. They even asked me to return the faulty unit to help improve their products, which shows they really care about quality. Would definitely recommend this dashcam. While technical issues can happen with any electronic device, knowing that the company stands behind their product with such excellent customer service gives me confidence in my purchase.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I can't fault this. I wanted a rear-view/reversing camera for my van and plumped for this one. The forward looking camera was, for me, a bonus. The kit came with more than enough cable to allow me to install the rear camera above the number plate and feed it through the back door, along the roof and through the roof lining to connect with the display screen which clipped firmly over the existing rear-view mirror. The GPS sensor was easy enough to wire in, again by tucking it under the roof lining and down the A pillar. The forward looking camera is part of the screen that clips onto the rear-view mirror. The power lead for it all was a simple feed above the roof lining and down the other A pillar to a 12v supply. Picture quality is excellent on both cameras. I chose not to wire up the rear camera to the reversing light circuit. I'm more than happy with the view from the camera and don't need the guide lines to assist with reversing, but the option is there if I want it or need it. For me this is a great investment, cheaper than a trip to the body shop or a claim on my insurance if I relied solely on my mirrors and reversing sensors and had a mishap, plus I have the added security of recordings on the micro SD card from both cameras should I be involved in a no fault incident.

I installed this last year in my VW T6 SWB. it is adequate. - The picture quality is good. - it turns off when my stop/start activates - I have checked and despite this model saying it has 5.8GHz WiFi I am unable to connect so manually removing memory card is the only way to access files - The clock tends to not adjust to daylight savings time. - The speedo and clock are hard to see - too light / fonts not big enough. - The speedo is obvs satellite speeds so be careful through speed cams. - Pressing the padlock whilst driving will save and protect everything thereafter (until you press again) to card and then overwrite earlier saved files so don't accidentally press it if you have files you want to keep. I saw an incident whilst driving and pressed the padlock icon as I assumed it would 'save the current clip' but it just kept going, protecting all further files and then over writing my previous clips. - the rear camera needs a regular wipe or it'll get hazy and it's not very good when it has road spray on it - I would suggest you don't bother wiring the reverse camera in to trigger via reverse light activation, all this does is change the view to full screen (this reduces the width of the screen visible so as to show the full aspect) and also adds the reverse lines that are fixed and tend to just get in the way. I just swipe the screen down when I reverse and it's better - the cable in the box was enough to get all the way to the back of the van to just above the number plate Despite what may appear to be a negative review list, I think this is good value for money as far as a dash cam is concerned and also as far as a rearview alternative. I would recommend

This mirror dash camera is amazing. I think I've converted everyone in my family to buy one. I've ordered 3 myself and family has also ordered. Excellent video playback, clear and visible, not grainy at all. Really easy to use. Has a few different settings, for my child I put on the speed alerts, that kept them aware, especially since a lot of the roads are average speed near us. Can be hardwired for continuous recording. Had them fitted by a professional but it can easily be done by yourself. Rear camera comes in use when reverse parking and even when someone hit my car from behind, provided excellent footage which shows fault. Has a save function so even if you write over the memory card, the video and pictures you save are still there. The customer service they provide is flawless, any time I've asked any questions, I get a detailed response. Cannot fault it at all.

Whats a good start for a technology that will help me drive safely. Thanks.

The screen and touch responce is great. It has nice features. Front camera is pretty good but rearview is not as good after dark. Some pictures that are uploaded can be misleading and make you purchase a different model rather than what you want. More importantly, the customer support is phenomenal. They will fix any issue and make sure you are happy with the purchase and the brand. Happy to own a Wolfbox branded product.

La cámara de coche WOLFBOX 4K Dashcam es, sin duda, un dispositivo impresionante que ha superado mis expectativas en todos los sentidos. Como conductor preocupado por la seguridad, siempre he buscado una cámara de tablero confiable que pueda proporcionar pruebas claras en caso de un incidente en la carretera, y esta cámara lo hace con creces. En primer lugar, la calidad de video 4K es excepcional. Las imágenes son nítidas y detalladas, lo que facilita la identificación de matrículas u otros detalles importantes en las grabaciones. La pantalla táctil de 12 pulgadas es lo suficientemente grande como para ver claramente lo que está sucediendo y navegar por los menús de configuración de manera sencilla. La función de doble lente con ángulos de visión de 170° + 140° es una característica destacada. Captura un amplio campo de visión tanto en frente como en el interior del automóvil. Esto es especialmente útil si desea documentar lo que sucede dentro del automóvil o si tiene un vehículo de flota y necesita supervisar a los conductores. La visión nocturna también funciona sorprendentemente bien, lo que proporciona una calidad de video clara incluso en condiciones de poca luz. El G-Sensor es una característica vital en una cámara de tablero, ya que detecta automáticamente eventos de colisión y bloquea las grabaciones para evitar que se sobrescriban. Esto garantiza que siempre tenga evidencia de cualquier incidente. La función de grabación en bucle es práctica, ya que asegura que la tarjeta SD de 32 GB incluida nunca se llene por completo. Las grabaciones más antiguas se sobrescriben automáticamente, por lo que no es necesario preocuparse por la capacidad de almacenamiento. El monitor de estacionamiento es una ventaja adicional. Puede configurar la cámara para que grabe automáticamente cuando detecta movimiento o vibraciones mientras su automóvil está estacionado. Esto puede ser útil para proteger su vehículo en situaciones de estacionamiento. La instalación fue relativamente sencilla gracias al soporte de succión y el cableado incluido. Además, la cámara es lo suficientemente elegante como para no obstruir significativamente su visión mientras conduce. En resumen, la WOLFBOX 4K Dashcam es una inversión valiosa para su seguridad en la carretera. Ofrece una calidad de video excepcional, funciones avanzadas y una fácil instalación.

Ik ben het Engels niet machtig zo kan mijn instellingen niet naar mijn keuze instellen

Tres pratique pour les utilitaires qui n'ont pas de rétroviseur. Juste la fonction "Dashcam qui affiche longtemps un symbole de cadenas un peu trop longtemps quand elle détecte une bosse. Fonction caméra de recule avec les lignes de recule reglabe (mais pas de son bip bip). L'option GPS, ne sert a rien, il affiche simplement le nord !!! Dans mon utilisation, c'est juste pour voir derrière, et franchement, c'est top !! Découvert grâce youtub, je ne regrette pas cette achat
