Update: The initial unit had bad audio - The Company reached out after the review and honored the 1 year warranty without a problem. This is one of the best companies for customer service on Amazon. The product replacement I got is working as it's supposed to and will update the review in a few months. Great company above all else. They make sure to take care of you!!!

Took some time using this item before posting a review. After using a few times and going through recordings, I can say I'm overall pleased with this product. Music is clear and can be heard at freeway speeds. Video quality is great, both day and night. I angled the camera slightly on my helmet and it helped with cutting down the wind noise in my recordings. Battery life is great. I hated using my Go Pro as the battery life sucked. I can ride for hours and this will last the full length, even while playing music through Bluetooth. Overall satisfied with my purchase and would recommend.

Video is clear and very simple to use. When setting up on iPhone was not able to get it to pair with WiFi but after contacting company they sent a you tube video explaining how to do it and was then able to connect with ease. Very responsive support from the company and understanding to my problem. Will purchase another for my father in law soon. Highly recommended this item!!

Not bad once you get it setup. Comes with both hard and soft mic which is nice. 3 buttons 1 for bluetooth, 1 for recorder and 1 for wifi and capture.
This is how I set up my unit.
Bluetooth
1 - Download RiCam in app store.
2 - Press and hold Bluetooth button until it is connected.
3 - On your phone go to settings Bluetooth and click on M3 and now your connected.
Recorder
1 - Press and hold recorder button until connected
2 - Click and hold Wifi/Capture button until connected
3 - Go into you phone settings and find RiCam app and turn off cellular data look at picture 2
4 - Go into phone settings and go into wifi and connect to M3 password 12345678
5 - Open RiCam and click phone icon and your video should show up. Adjust your camera as needed and enjoy!
The wheel is easy to use with gloves, turn left and hold to volume down. Twist left and let go to play previous song. Same with right but for higher volume and next song. Click center button twice for Siri. Click once to answer and end calls. Hold for 2 seconds to reject call.
I did take the camera for a ride wasnt 2 bad. Cant complain about the sound. As long as you place it right should have no problem hearing your music at hugher speakers. Just remember these arent no $300 unit and shouldnt be treated like one. Its a budget friendly unit.
I will give a full review once I fully test it, but thought I share about how I connected this to your phone and recorder app.

I haven't had one single issue with connection or with the device itself. I love the camera Bluetooth and walkie talkie all in one. This device is seriously a 10/10 in my book

The interior speakers are great for music and it has a decent camera. I am giving 4 stars only since the Ricam app could not be found and downloaded. I tried the scan code provided in the box as well as online research - nothing for Ricam app. Guess I will have to deal without the app for now.

My husband and his high school buddy both ordered this helmet cam for a motorcycle roadtrip to California. They have been playing with this device in different positions due to them wearing half helmets. They've made several short rides to adjust the angle to get the best video. The pictures are great. The videos work well but with wind noise hard to hear them talking.
The telecommunications work great. They can talk to each other and answer cell phone calls. I'm driving a chase vehicle in case of breakdowns, etc. So communication is vital.

at first i couldn't get the camera to work with my Iphone through wifi. if you go into settings and turn off cellular permission for the app it works as advertised. after that was figured out i give this product a 5 star review for quality, battery life and price. while its not 4k the video the 1080 is clear in day and night recording.

Great video quality. Very surprised. Light I don't even notice it on my helmet. I was able to fit it to my modular helmet with no problem. Very happy . The only issue I had is using the smaller mic. The velcro won't stick to the inside of my helmet.
