Definitely worth having.
Have had 2 Nextbase's and a Blackvue 900.
Been happy with all, the Blackvue does have much better quality video, pricey though. Not sure it's worth the extra £ unless you are making video's of trips etc.
Yes, one of mine went to black screen, other showed speed, last thing I wantedJust a note about the Nextbase dashcams. The batteries in some models did not last as long as other makes. They can be renewed if you can take them apart and use a soldering iron. The best way to avoid this in the first place is to set the dashcam picture to go to sleep after a minute or two (the screen goes black).
didn't you win one backalongI have had 3 and not one works, maybe me not doing something right, or mini sd cards crap from ebay.
I've had a cheap one for years in the van which works well enough.
However, I will be buying the one Terry recommends from Halfords as it is far better quality. I will also pay the extra 35 quid for them to hardwire it in because I'm lazy.
Maggy has the basic Nextbase 112, it came free with her car insurance a long time ago and still working fine, I have the better model, 128gb SD card and the polarising filter, 3yrs now with no problems and because we are not using the van much it is in the car, If the car gets a knock it wakes up and records so great for carparks etc. after using one I don't feel right without it being onI'm on my 6th Next base. I have only ever bought 1 from halfords and none have lasted a year so have taken them back each and every time and had them replaced for the next newer model. Every one has destroyed the sd cards and stops recording. Camera comes on, shows that it records but then randomly shuts down then that's it, no more recording onto the card sadly only found out due to needing info. The one I have now has run out of warranty now and not had the chance to use it to see if this too goes faulty. If it does I won't ever buy next base again..
