The mount, where it hooks to the camera can best be described as "cheesy." I can't belive they've got a fat screw interfacing to a plastic slot. It's bound to fail, plus it's hard to make it work at all. Also the box implies that it has GPS capability, but that's not entirely true. It uses the GPS from your smart phone, except that if your phone bonds to your car, like mine does, then the Cobra is on its own, and does not get GPS. In maximum resolution, it records 30 fps, but it's hard/impossible to make out license plates on the resulting video. The unit is small, but with a long, dangly cord, it gets complaints from my wife, every time she gets in the car. Also, the unit hangs too low. I thought I'd hide it up high, behind the mirror, but of course modern cars have black "stipling" on the inside of the windshield for sun shielding, so you can't stick this puppy to that stuff, so you have to hang it below those black dots, so it winds up hanging quite low. I don't know what the answers are to making this a great unit, but as it is, it's sub-par and I can't recommend it.Read full review

This DVR does not have a onboard GPS and uses your phones data when connected by bluetooth. The earlier models had the GPS inside the unit and worked well. The mount is ugly, too big and falls off the window in the hot sun causing the camera to crash on the dash or floor. Needs a proper fixed mount that sticks to the glass with 3M 2 sided tape and is 1/4 the size. This DVR has a battery inside that is not replaceable. When bad the unit will no longer work. Get ready to throw it away just after the warrantee expires. I'm going to send it back. I'm so tired of big corporations cheapening up their products so the CEO can get a bigger bonus. So sad.

The dash camera works great with good features but the windshield suction mount will not stick very long. About 30 minutes and then it drops off. I cleaned the windshield and tried the suction cup dry and moist but it won't stay on.

I'm tired of dealing with its unreliable. The faluire rate is 100%. 4 times I needed to see some video and 3 time it had corrupt data and the 4th there was no data on the SD card at all. Also there is no way to easily see the video on anything bigger then the 4 inch screen while in the vehicle. The app is completely useless because not enough people use it.
