I love this 3 Channel Dash Cam WiFi FHD 1080P Car Camera 64GB TF Card, from TOPGOOSE. First thing I have to say the instructions must be written for a bug, as they are so tiny they are unreadable even with a magnifying glass. So had to figure it out on my own. We didn't hook up the back camera, as you have to run a wire from front to back and didn't want to do that. Otherwise, once we figured it out, it seems to work rather well. But better instructions would be amazing.

This is a nice budget dashcam especially as it has the function to record three different views.
You have the standard unit that has a camera pointing out front through the windscreen, a camera that points inside the vehicle and a separate camera that connects up to the main unit, this camera can be used to capture footage from the rear windscreen.
I found that it was easy to set up and though it was a nice touch to include the SD card with the camera so you have everything you need to set it up and go, the SD card is very, very cheap and I did initially think there was an issue with the camera, but it turned out if was just the defective and extremely poor quality SD card, as soon as I used a decent SD , the dashcam was working perfectly fine.
On to the quality of recording, I set it up so it would record with the highest quality but still found that it struggled to record the registration plates so that they were easily readable, unless you were parked right behind the car, however as this is a budget dashcam, it was expected. It is still a good thing to have in the card, I have had to use my dashcam for insurance purposes before and I'm confident that if I hadn't had the proof then the claim would have gone down as 50/50 fault so I do highly recommend that drivers have dashcams and this one is perfect for those on a tight budget.

This dash cam offers fantastic coverage with its triple camera system, it captures footage from the front, inside, and rear of the vehicle simultaneously. This is always going to be useful in unexpected instances e.g. a collision
It's easy to install and it's a must have for any driver

This product is great. It does what it says on the tin. I was confident in using it based on the description. I think there are some areas can be improved but it's too early to tell yet. It's well made, and will look forward to using in continously.

This 3 channel dash camera was easy to install. Has 1080p with a 64gb tf card. Crystal clear pictures and recordings. I love some of the features such as, 24hr parking monitor, which helps out alot, night vision (perfect picture), and G sensor. Giftable. Recommendable.

Well, the instructions are for a previous model, or firmware perhaps.
Reading those, and then the reviews apparently referring to those instructions, I was skeptical.
So, this all got hooked up on my desk first, not my car. This is a real review.
Things I found:
Instruction sheet (and several reviews) says you can only record two streams is incorrect. When you plug in the back camera, all three streams record, every time. There isn't even a way to turn one off, other than unplugging the external camera.
Video quality: great on the forward camera. Pretty good on the interior camera. Not great on the external rear facing camera.
It's OK for video evidence of that guy hitting your back bumper, while the front cam shows a red light, though.
Options: Motion trigger. This works, for a while, then it doesn't. It records several clips then the option just turns itself off. And the recording stops too. So don't use that. It's a bad idea anyway, at a quiet intersection, nothing moving in front of you, motion detect sees no motion, so no video, and a guy sideswipes you. You'd miss that accident with motion detect because it only watches the front camera.
I tried this with and without the "G-Sensor”, as it appears to be a vibration sensor.
Parking: I kind of made that work, by turning Parking + G-Sensor + motion, and it recorded a locked clip when I tapped it with my hand. I had a couple successful clips.
I didn't pursue this very far, because the instructions say to never leave Parking (or motion!) turned on for driving, you have to set both manually EVERY time you park on two different config screens. I thought this mode would just be automatic when you parked. This doesn't interest me at all. I tried it anyway, and ran into the same problem as before. The Motion detect just goes away after a while, and the recording stops completely.
Phone App: For bandwidth reasons, to watch the video on your phone, this operates on WiFi, not bluetooth. Which means connecting your phone to a local hotspot the camera creates, every time. Then you have no internet, because it's a hotspot without internet, right? It's very annoying. I'd rather just have the files and utilities available on the app, download the videos to play them, and use BLUETOOTH instead. That's not how this works though.
The camera continues working while streaming to your cell phone. But the camera is stuck on the "WIFI" screen, you can't exit or use any functions or buttons while connected to your phone.
The APP Viidure, works OK, and there are a few camera settings in there. Not all, just a few. Plus you can download your video clips into your phone.
(HINT: Its much faster to just put the card in your computer with a card reader)
Through 2 days of testing, I didn't experience any lockups while in WiFi mode, or during testing the camera.
For what you get, it will do the job. You don't need to connect your phone all that often, or use motion, or parking modes. Then you have a 3 camera 1080/720/720 system for $89 at the time of this review. That's OK, there's some value there, especially an uber driver situation when you need a camera on the back seat. I’d like a 3.5 star rating for this one.
It's not hard to notice for $20 to $40 more there are 4k/2.5k systems with much higher res cameras, that may have better functionality. I don’t have one to compare, but just saying it's worth thinking about.

This simple camera setup is great to get video for your vehicle on a budget. The front / interior camera plugs directly in to your lighter wiring. There is a separate (optional) rear camera with wiring that ties in to the front and plugs in, but the length of wiring works for compact cars or small sedans, certainly not SUVs or larger cars. Plan accordingly.
The video is standard VGA, nothing too fancy but should be enough for insurance if heaven forbid you get into an accident.

This is a good quality dual dash cam. It came with all the necessary accessories except the SD card. Installation was easy and was done in a couple of minutes. The process of setting up the camera is easy and straight forward. I really like the dual camera so that I can record what’s in front and behind. It also helps me keep an eye on the kids in the back of the car. Quality of the video is clear, easy to read license plates.
