    My husband drives all over for work as he does construction.. and this camera is great.. it is super simple to install. .and set up.. the picture quality is great.. and bc it attaches to the back of the mirror it stays out of the way.. and doesnt impair your view while driving..

    I really like this Dashcam. The video quality is outstanding. With a front-facing and rear camera that records in 2K, the footage is crystal clear and provides a great level of detail. The wide-angle lenses capture a broad field of view, which is especially useful for capturing incidents that occur off to the side of the vehicle.
    The dash cam also has a built-in GPS, which allows for accurate time and location stamping of the footage. The Wi-Fi connectivity is a great feature that allows you to easily access and download your footage to your phone or tablet. Especially useful in the case of an accident, this allows you to share the footage with law enforcement or insurance companies quickly.
    One of my favorite features of the dashcamis the parking mode. This feature automatically starts recording when it detects motion or an impact while the car is parked, providing added security and peace of mind. The dash cam is also very easy to install and use. The compact size makes it unobtrusive and doesn’t obstruct your view of the road.

    For anyone searching for a high-quality, feature-rich device to assist secure themselves and their vehicle while on the road, I highly recommend this dash cam.

    It seems like traffic and thefts keep getting worse every year. Especially living near a big city. On my daily commute, I see at least one accident every day. One day, my oldest son called me and told me about his car being broken into. One of the things that his insurance company asked is did he have a dashcam and if he didn’t that they highly recommend getting one. So after hearing this, I decided to get one for myself just to give me peace of mind just in case of emergencies.

    I did a little research and found out that this is a pretty decent dash cam. It has several bells and whistles. It seems to be well built. I really like it because it’s small and discrete and that you can barely see it unlike some that I’ve seen that have screens. I figured getting one like this without a screen would attract less attention.

    It comes with everything that you need. I was really surprised to see how long the charging cord was. It was very easy to mount and set up. The app was amazingly simple to navigate. Another reason why I chose this one is that it already came with an SD card. I don’t usually see a lot of products that come with SD cards.

    One of the features that I like is the 24-hour parking monitor. It’s cool being able to just look on my phone and check the camera footage. One thing I would say is that if you plan on getting this or any dash cam, you might want to invest into some type of portable battery charger so that it won’t run down your car battery overnight. I plan on getting one on payday.

    Overall, I am highly satisfied with it. If you live in a big city, I would highly recommend getting this.

    The Q1000 Front & Rear Dash Cam Bundle is an excellent option for those looking for a reliable and high-quality dash cam setup. The front and rear cameras provide a complete view of the road ensuring that you capture all the necessary footage. The cameras are easy to install and come with a variety of useful features such as loop recording and parking mode. The video quality is impressive with clear and sharp footage even in low light conditions. The bundle also comes with a microSD card so you can start using it right out of the box. Overall the Q1000 is a great value for its price and I highly recommend it! The best I have ever had!

    The installation process was an absolute breeze. I had this camera up and running in my vehicle within the same hour of unboxing it. It paired easily to my devices and I was immediately stunned by the video clarity in front of my eyes. This dash cam picks up all the finest details to give me peace of mind knowing that I’m completely protected from all angles. The Q1000 doesn’t compromise on the night vision either. It has wonderful image clarity at night and I can even use the locate my car feature to help me find my vehicle after I parked and forgot where I did. It’s a really amazing dash cam and rear cam bundle.

    I think the Thinkware Q1000 Front + Rear Dash Cam is awesome. I am more aware of what’s going on while riding with this technology hooked up in my car. In my community there are a lot of hit and run accidents and I’ve been a victim so now I can capture any accidents and/or license plates that I can help with insurance claims or culprits on the road. I also have teen boy who has started driving so these cameras help me watch whats going on and how he’s driving my car for safety reasons. I now can record my family’s journey on road trips during the spring and summer for great memories of the fantastic views while we travel. Plus I can save time with the built-in GPS system and not get lost in other cities. I really love the quality of video that is captured. I also love the features on the camera that tell us that there’s a traffic enforcement camera ahead which is a big deal where I live. This bundle has many great features and was very easy to install and didn’t take much time to do. We set the app up on the cell phone and it’s all working good. I definitely and highly recommend this dash cam bundle.

    After using the Q1000 Front & Rear Dash Cam Bundle for a while I can confidently say that it’s one of the best investments I’ve made for my vehicle. This comprehensive dash cam system not only provides crystal-clear video coverage for both the front and rear of my car but it also offers a host of additional features that make it well worth the price.Video Quality:The Q1000 Bundle includes two 1080p Full HD cameras ensuring that the video footage is sharp and clear in various lighting conditions. The front camera has a wide 170-degree field of view capturing everything happening in front of your vehicle. The rear camera has a slightly narrower 140-degree field of view which still provides excellent coverage for the rear.Night Vision:One of the standout features of the Q1000 Bundle is its impressive night vision capabilities. With the use of advanced Sony STARVIS sensors both cameras produce high-quality footage even in low-light situations. I’ve found this feature particularly useful while driving at night or in dimly lit areas.

  9. Classic Reviewer (verified owner)

    Paired this with a 2005 Forester XS and found it to be a great pairing. TL;DR: The Q1000 is another excellent offering from ThinkWare in their dash cams and the ability to have the rear window catch rear collisions/accidents makes this an excellent bit of kit.

    I don’t have the parking feature enabled on my camera as I haven’t wired it for it, only powers up via accessory and usually parks where there are security cameras at work and at home. Although, having test it – may save your bacon if you are parking on city streets as they aren’t always monitored as well as other drivers may not be excellent parkers.

    This device doesn’t have a traditional screen like most dashcams on the market, which is a good thing in my opinion. Having tested other cameras, there is nothing more inconvenient than either removing the camera (taking it out of adjustment) to go through menus or trying to use the screen when it’s behind your mirror. The app works fine via Android and has been able to download/view videos without any fuss.

    ADAS on this system is fine, I just disabled it since I don’t really appreciate the noise of me coming out of the lane or the few false positives it may throw out on the battered city streets. This still may be useful to add that kind of technology in an older car, but be warned it won’t be nearly as reliable as a newer vehicle so I wouldn’t recommend relying on it.

    Overall, the kit is awesome for a majority of cars and most of what you will need will be included.

    The Q1000 Front & Rear Dash Cam Bundle has been a game changer for me in my car. The clarity of the footage is exceptional capturing every detail of my drives. The front and rear cameras provide complete coverage and the night vision feature is outstanding. The installation was simple even for someone not so tech savvy as myself and the dash cam is unobtrusive. I highly recommend the Q1000 to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality dash cam footage.

    The quality of the video is great on this model. With the CPL filter, you can clearly see everything during the daytime. Hardwire connection is easy enough, but they do have OBD connectors as well as tapping into auto dimming mirrors.
    This is my third Thinkware Dash cam and I plan to continue to use them as long as quality holds up.

    The Q1000 Front + Rear Dash Cam Bundle is a great system if you are looking for safety security and peace of mind. A few of the reasons why it is so great:1) Image clarity. Both daytime and nighttime clarity is really good.2) Connectivity. As long as the device is connected to the internet (wifi network or vehcile hotspot etc) you can view the camera feed and GPS location from your app. You can even get warnings if the vehicle exits a certain geographic area!3) Design. The Q1000 has a small form factor and just looks unobtrusive and well-made.

    I purchased two of these for my vehicles and have had one installed already. The will be installed next week. The video quality (2K) is excellent front and rear. I purchased thee after doing several days of research online for an overall excellent F/R dashcam. Fortunately I have not had to review the video for any incidents yet but I have been reviewing the video regularly in different climate and light conditions. Again so far I am very pleased with the video quality. The only ever so slightly annoying thing is the sensitive setting for incident recognition. No matter how low I set it The Q1000 still beeps (indicating an incident detected) at every little imperfection on the roadway. This does not effect in anyway the operation of the dashcam. It just marks the video file differently for easier selection. Unfortunately since it triggers at every little bump or crack in the road you may have several such marked files especially if you did actually have an incident you needed to review. I have not the first one installed long so the only remaining conditions to verify will be durability and longevity.

    Coming from a Nextbase 1440p camera, this is clearly a step ahead. Video quality in the day is about the same, which means it’s pretty crisp. Quality at night is great, but overall, this camera just works. No overheating issues, no missed clips. Haven’t had any issues with the app yet. Works as advertised.

    EDIT: Contacted support re: software not working on Pixel 6 Pro. They sent a beta version of the app that works. Upgrading to 5 stars.

    —-

    Pros:
    – Decent image, night mode recording is fairly clear
    – Easy to install, looks sleek
    – Does not obstruct the view by much

    Cons:
    – Worst software ever. Dash Cam Link software does not work on Android 13 / Pixel phones. It connects to the camera, but the live view features / playback of stored videos does not work.
    – The PC / Mac Viewers are no longer supported and are deprecated.
    – Default WIFI password does not work, no way to set a custom WIFI password.

    I’ve used a few aftermarket dash cams over the years, and this one ranks a little better than average. Set up is simple, and installation is also easy, depending on how you install it as well as your skill level. I had in installed in less than a minute or so. The installation kit comes with everything needed.

    The unit does a nice welcome when you start your vehicle. If you can turn it off, I have yet to find out how. I would if I could.

    The recordings themselves are only saved if “something” happens. IN my case, hitting a little pot hole will cause it to save the recording. When it does, it saves a few seconds before and after an “event” happens.

    There is no easy control to manually tell it to record. If there is a button, it is hard to reach. So when I know i want to save something it just recorded, and smack my dashboard, which the dash cam interpretes as an incident or event, and saves that recording. It beeps when it detects such an event, giving you an audible cue that it just saved that recording.

    Night vision makes this better than average. It’s good.

    The 2K QHD spec is really false advertising. It’s not even HD quality. Sure, the file size is large, but that does not mean clarity of video in true “2K” quality. It is decent, yes, but not great quality. The camera has a hard time “seeing” license plate numbers twenty feet in front of the lens. Blurry. There is also no stabilization so things can look a little jarring when watching back the video on some roads.

    All that said, I do like this system. It works as designed, if a little fudging of it’s specs.

    I bought the camera due to a review from a friend. Got the camera it was nicely packaged and looked solidly built but with no instructions in the box. Looked online but nothing specific to the model. Did hook it up but not sure of what app to use downloaded the dash cam one but it didn’t work. It kept asking to download an update which i did on my phone and then nothing. Tried multiple times with no luck. Went online again and tried to manually download the update to the micro SD card and then to the camera and still no luck. Emailed thinkware again but ended up calling and talking to LJ who did get me the correct update and now the app can see the camera. The live view option still does not work. I emailed LJ again for help. I am really disappointed with this considering the price of the camera. I had better luck with other cams just plug and play no issues.

    Out of the box the camera came with everything I needed to install and get it running (plugs wires adhesive memory and both cameras). The only thing missing was the installation instructions. The QR Codes didn’t lead me straight to any instructions so I had to look up the model. Without instructions this would have been a lot more challenging.After installing the camera next came downloading the mobile application to set the camera which was extremely difficult. It took me three days and three different apps to finally get my phone connected to the camera. The QR code on a quick reference sheet had me download the wrong app. I didn’t realize it was the wrong app until it wouldn’t let me scan my input the serial number without giving errors. I had to poke around the side and download anything that looked remotely important. I finally was able to download the DashCamLink app. Don’t use THINKWARECONNECTED nor Transparency. Neither worked. Once the camera was installed and I was able to connect it to my phone it has been awesome!It captures really good quality video and audio as well. The best features are GPS Wifi rear view camera and all the safety/collision awareness features. When you download the app to your computer it shows you all the kinematics of your car and exact location. Its a slim bodied camera that doesn’t get in my way when driving fitting perfectly between my windshield and rear view mirror. I highly recommend this camera.

    I’m highly impressed with quality of videos it captures.This Thinkware recordings are very clear day and night. I am planning to use it for driving Vlogs. It comes with all the required accessories that is needed to mount the camera. Easy to mount and can view live view from my smart phone while in action so if there is any adjustment needed I can make it. And of course there are so many other features that comes in this model like motion detection parking mode etc. I would certainly recommend worth having it your car.

    This front and rear dash cam is an amazing product that helps to provide high resolution footage of ongoing traffic. Capture stunning 2K QHD footage whether it’s night or day from both front and rear view cameras.

The 2K HDR Front & Rear Dash Cam includes Super Night Vision capabilities with Wi-Fi GPS and much more to help me stay connected during travel. I must say that this product comes with everything that you need including a long charging cord. It was very easy to mount and set up. The app was amazingly simple to navigate. In particular one of the features that I like is the 24-hour parking monitor which allows me to look on my phone and check the camera footage whenever and wherever. Overall I love the stylish and modern exterior design with a rugged package. I highly recommend this product to others based on quality and value.

    This dash cam is one of the best dash cams I have ever had the privilege of owning.. the camera is made from premium materials so it’s not a flimsy light plastic camera… the quality of the camera is amazing it doesn’t really get much better than this and to be able to capture everything in the inside as well it’s a 10/10.

    The box brings everything you need to install the cameras. There’s a hardwire and a removable wire so you can pick which would work best for you. The instructions are easy enough but if you have doubts ask a professional. The cameras are crystal clear and you can see a great deal of detail so they’re amazing. Great for insurance purposes as well.

    This was a lifesaver in my car! I have an older vehicle that I use as my daily driver that does not have a camera built in. This one is brilliant and has a front and rear camera that is Bluetooth wifi enabled and has sensors that are a must have for anyone who makes long commutes like me or a new driver. It gives me peace of mind that I will be covered in the case of an accident with the back up storage of the recordings. I love it!

    We’re always looking for a good dashcam for the sake of terrible drivers in our area this one seems to hold up to par. For starters it’s very small and extremely easy to install. You’ve got two options. Can use the port or the cigarette lighter. You don’t have to run any cables to and from in order to install. It also comes with everything you need including the SD cards which is pretty rare to have included in other dashcams. It has all the same typical features as other – cams give or take some. You’ve got the option to enable forward assist lane departure etc. It’s very easy to operate and it doesn’t require a reading the instructions to operate. It’s got big buttons so that way you can press them without wondering if you’re hitting the right button or hitting the wrong button because the buttons are too small and fingers hit both. The video clarity is good but not amazing. So while it’s a very good camera and sensitive to everything you’ll get your general quality camera pixelation. Not saying that’s a bad thing but if you’re looking for super clear this may not be the one. That’s what all the reviews say that is kind of pixelated. I’ll continue to use it for peace of mind while driving because you never know when someone’s going to cause a hit and run or run a red light and you’re the victim. It’s a good insurance backup for proof and being its sensitive to collision and lane departure you shouldn’t have any problem picking up an accident. Overall it’s a good quality camera for a good quality investment.

    I bought this product over a month age. Love the size and video quality. I got in an accident and was able to prove to the police officer the accident was not my fault. With out this great system I know I would have been blamed. Strongly recommend this product to family and friends.

    I think with how unpredictable driving is these days it really gives a sense of security to have a dash cam while driving around even if it’s just around town. This Thinkware dash cam is really nice! I like that it mounts behind the mirror so it doesn’t block the view. The picture is clear and syncs up with the app on your phone very nicely. It’s easy to install I’m very happy with this.

    Shipping was quick and the bundle was exactly what I needed. Took us a few hours for the install as it was hardwired, but turned out great and works as expected. This is my third Thinkware dash cam and so far no concerns.

    The camera is very good. The software is clunky. You have to have a hotspot to use some of the advanced features. I can’t understand why it can’t just use the phone’s data.

    This is my third Thinkware camera, the previous ones being an F800Pro and a Q800Pro. The new camera itself is just as good as the others I’ve had, but the new iPhone app is much worse. The app I used before was Thinkware Cloud. It always worked the same way, and I never had issues. The new camera doesn’t work with Thinkware Cloud, I had to use Dash Cam Link. This app has a really hard time getting connected to the camera. With the old app, I would just connect to the camera’s wifi, then start using the app. With the new app, it seems you can’t connect to the camera’s wifi directly, you have to do it through the app. When you do something in the app that needs connectivity to the camera, it “automatically” connects you to it but it gives you three pop-up prompts every time, which makes it really clunky. Worse than that though, it competes with wireless CarPlay, and CarPlay always wins. The only way the app can connect to the camera is if I disable CarPlay on the phone, or tell the phone to forget the car’s bluetooth. Otherwise CarPlay will just keep stealing the wifi back while the app fiddles around with all its prompts. Then if I want to re-enable Carplay afterwards, I need to turn the car off and back on before it will reconnect. With the old app, when I would intentionally connect to the camera’s wifi, CarPlay would graciously step out of the way. The new app is a real pain to use. But as long as I don’t need to use the app, the camera is fine.

    Their Apps are the worst pieces of software I have ever used. It is not intuitive and almost impossible to connect to the camera without the help of customer service every time. I don’t understand why any company would allow such poorly written software. Fire all your software engineers and let AI build user friendly Apps.
