People tell me that dashcams aren’t legal in Germany… but since they do sell these there I’ve included them for anyone in nearby countries who uses Amazon.DE
If you want to add a parking mode to this camera and don’t mind all the extras wires – they do make an accessory for this – I haven’t tested it.
NOTE- I purchased this camera with my own money and have had no contact with Aukey or anyone acting on behalf of the company. This is an independant review of a product purchased from Amazon.

Not sunny in Britain?!?
Do you need a GPS plugged in to display the accelerometer?
The only video on YouTube that actually says what happens to the file once the Caution / Action button is pressed.
Cannot praise you enough for actually saying that in the video.
Thank you.
Is this still your go-to dashcam? Bought one for the wife a year ago and it's been good. Time to get myself one now
So many cameras on amazon have glowing reviews but little if any verified purchases. I bought a cheap camera with a battery and it was awful. It malfunctioned in the cold and failed to record when somebody rear ended me. I can not trust average customer review anymore although I can trust Techmoan :3
How does the front camera compare with the camera fitted to the car by the car's manufacturers ? 😉
Pleasingly to say, not a product I need. I doubt I've seen 5 camera-worthy incidents in 30 years!
I love how you pointed out the largest brick warehouse, it's a bit like a guided tour. I might never get to go to England so it's much appreciated!
Anyone know the correct name of the cable that go's to the rear cam??? And how much it costs. I need a cable that connects the rear cam. And I can't find one
WTH IS WITH AN AD TO IMPEACH THE BEST PRESIDENT EVER !
used this one for around 2 years now. awesome bit of kit.
Thanks for this full review! I'm thinking about buy this dash cam, but I have just one doubt: I know it can record videos up to 10 minutes. Is there a "no-recording-time" while switching from a file to another? I mean, when a video reaches 10 minutes lenght, does the new file begin immediately, or it can take a while?
Saying this will stay in your car is a strong recommendation on your part.
I'd really like your take on this dual Aukey verses the new dual viofo A129.
One of the best reviews I have ever watched and listened to. Very well out together !! You should be in TV – could maybe do a tech programme 🙂
Not less than £100 any more! More like £150 on eBay and other sites. With its increased popularity the vendors have caught onto this and majorly bumped up the retail price by 50% !
Will the rear camera work clear with tinted window??
Your reviews are really great. I was looking for a good dash cam like this for my car so I bought it.
Fitted the same day it arrived and it worked great for 6 days and then the unit froze. I then reset it with a paper clip and the rear camera doesn’t work at all now, only the front facing camera works.
Anyone else come across this problem with this model of dash cam?
Just orderd it. It's not too fancy and at the same time the technology seems sturdy.
Good Vid and I did note your comment about Digital radio being muted. Experienced some thing similar in China. Driving around Qingdao on the coast south east of Beijing we were using a mobile phone with GPS built in. When we put the phone down on top of the plug in changer the phone GPS became quite erratic and gave weird direction or dropped out. Once I realized it was the interference from the charger and moved the phone away a half meter or so it began yo work just fine. So I'm sure you are right 12v to 5V converters introduce a lot of broad spectrum radio interference. I think if you can place a CHOKE on the 5v cable and shield the converter in aluminum foil or tin box it might work OK. Worth a try ;}
I bought this camera from the Amazon 6 months ago. The rear camera either poured water and burned. can I buy the rear camera.
One more argument for FM-Radio 😀
so detailed … just i what i needed – well done Techmoan
I would definitely use a high endurance card rather than the one he uses so that you don't risk premature death of the card or lost footage
is there a way to use a suction cup adapter for this camera?
How necessary do you think the rear camera is? Is it worth the $ and hassle?
Cheers! I'll be adding this to basket (especially when I recognised all the sights of my home town 🙂 )
Can someone tell me if the GPS module for the TaoTronics TT-CD05 will work with this GPS? Thanks!
Good evening. I am looking for a replacement dash cam, I followed the link on your page to Amazon to purchase this item, but there is a lot of bad reviews about the camera breaking down after only a short period. Could you tell me if your still using this camera, and have you encountered any problems with it. Thanks.
Just to let you know i am thinking of buying this setup BUT as it get's older, so the price has gone up ! Amazon is now £120 ! On ebay i see them for as much as £160 !!
dual dash cam , free for review on AMZ , who need, contact me
I bought the DR02 Aukey to replace my GW1-WC BlueSkySea but I have to say the GW1 tackles the cloud mixed with sun a lot better. Some of the clips late AM and early PM with the DR02 are dark you couldn't read a number plate in those conditions. I wish I had not now given my GW1 away. 🙁
Can this dashcam be hard wired
Thanks for the Excellent review.
It's jumped up to £119.99
Still worth that though for a decent car cam.
Do you still stand by this dash cam? Wanting to order it from the states, but in the end it'll cost me $300 once payed for shipping and conversion rates. Is it worth that much? Including the OBD detection kit too.
Ok Firstly the video is in fact very good. I was so impressed I purchased the kit last December and had it professionally fitted so it was nice and neat in early January, The cameras a very neat and tidy and pretty stealthy which is what I wanted. However after about 4 weeks the front camera lost the ability to see the rear camera. Aukey sent a replacement and that work really well until about a week or ago. Now Aukey customer support where awesome and very quickly sent a replacement. So all should be good. But no this replacement unit on installation saw the rear camera for 5 seconds and then lost it. Since then the camera seems to be locked and although it looks like it seeing what is in front it lags behind very badly. Control keys don't seem to activate anything either. I'm frankly rather disappointed. I've contacted Aukey yet again explaining the current situation but they seem to have decided to drop any further assistance. I'm looking into replacing the cameras with a different make while still using the Aukey cables as I don't want the same the same as the camera cost yet again for having the cables swopped over.
I think I might have to stick my rear dashcam to the glass, would it matter if it went over the heater wires? And would it damage the wires if I had to remove it?
I want to buy this sd card for the Aukey Dr 02, is that helpful.SanDisk Ultra 128GB microSDXC Memory Card + SD Adapter with A1 App Performance up to 100MB/s, Class 10, U1
I read the description, and it says dashcams aren't legal in Germany? Whys that?
This camera is no longer under £100! It would be even better if it came with suction cup mounts. I'm not sure I'd want to commit to sticking the mounting bracket to the screens to then have to remove them to sell the car on. How easy are they to remove and clean up where the pad has been?
are you gonna test that aukey 4k dash cam? 😀
Just what I have been looking for, only just decided to get front an rear cam, I have been looking for a second cam but you nailed it yet again, ordered from your link as I did with the first one. keep up the great reviews, and thanks…
I am thinking of buying this dash cam fancyonline.shop/y1 the ratings and reviews look great.
Does this still work half a year later? Because I very often see comments on Aukey products on Amazon (mostly powerbanks or power adaptores) saying it stopped working after a week or a few uses and that it's a cheap Chinese brand. Which is very annoying because it's the only brand that sells high watt usb c powerbanks/adaptors on German Amazon.
