Re: Buying a Dashboard Camera – Advice & Discussions

I checked gt300 comments and 1 indian buyer said the chipset user is "generalplus"

But the specs mentions the chipset manufacturer - novatek.

Can you post a link which will be the best one to buy ? I ordered 3 things yesterday from aliexpress but didn't order the camera because of the same confusion.
Looks like you are also looking for a dashcam. Maybe we can buy together and get a discount. If you don't mind me asking what is you budget for dashcam?

The gt300 costs around 1400rs. Seems reasonable but the another model costs 3200rs. How will we get a discount ? The shipping destinations will be different

I just asked him online :p so why will it be an inconvenience. Another indian user bought it recently and wrote he got the item in 20 days. The quality is really good. Will order it in a day or two.

Initially i had bought the GT300 available for $6 on aliexpress.com which later turned out to be suspicious, so I got the refund and ordered a GT300 priced at $19. Received it last week (one month after order).Using it for past two days, works excellent. Very good stable video quality, considering this price point.

There are almost around 30 sellers in aliexpress selling GT300. Can you share the link from where you purchased.

Thanks in Advance

I bought the Novatek K6000 Dash cam from DX.com for ~1500Rs. it arrived almost 3 months after the order. it was with the Indian customs for almost a month.

Day time video is good. but night is horrible.
I have set this in 3 min loop record mode with low resolution(480p)
the lens is said to be 12Mp and records at 1080p
buttons need to be pressed hard.
that much you can expect for 1500Rs
I will upload a Day and night video soon!

Hi,

Here is my Dash Cam Video Sample Footage - Largest Flyover in Kolkata - Paro(MAA) Flyover - Still not fully functional hence one way traffic on both flank - The Flyover opened due to Political Stunt.

6 min drive at the best possible lighting condition - 1080p clip with no Audio - Enjoy the Beauty.

Is this the same bridge fell yesterday?

It was a very unfortunate incident. [cry]
