Hi guys, Searched and there isn't any topics for discussion on 70mai dashcam. What do you think of this new camera from 70mai? https://70mai.store/products/omni It was first launch with kickstarter IIRC to retailing now. Reached our shores not long ago and in Singapore, it supports 4G hardwire kit. Not many people have bought it though as I want to look at reviews from buyers from official channels such as Shopee, Lazada, etc. Unique features which are different from others are 360 degree rotating view, voice commands for selfie/vlogs and advance ADAS (including pedestrains and motorcycle detections wor). I'm not promoting this but in fact looking at it to replace my "free" Korean brand cheapo dashcam provided by the PI. But the cons for this Omni is no rear camera support. I think rear camera is needed as I have been rear-ended twice and both were not my fault. Claims from 3rd party was done very smoothly. 70mai Singapore mentioned can look at installing the 70mai 1S on the rear. I have a small battery pack that is hooked up on my current dashcam for 24/7 monitoring but to runs out of juice sometimes if I have parked at a location with many cars driving past capturing lots of events. My intention for 24/7 monitoring is for situation where car is being hit-and-run especially in car parks and there are many idiots out there nowadays (no pun intended). My possible options are: 1. Buy a Omni for the front (and hook it up to my battery pack) and install a 1S for the rear to record during drive only (for rear-ended case, choy choy choy); or 2. Option 1 and install another battery pack for the rear camera. Not sure if both packs can be charged sufficiently as sometimes my drive could not charge up even my current one to full 100%; or 3. Stick to current dashcam or get the 70mai A800s with dual channel but lose the features of Omni. 😛 Advices and ideas are welcome. 70mai users or potential buyers can discuss and provide reviews here also. 🙂 Cheers!

It may be a case of "you can run, but you can't hide" increasingly for motorists here, as the growing use of in-vehicle cameras helps the police track down errant drivers. The Traffic Police said it has received more videos of traffic violations recorded with these cameras, original videos of which can be submitted as evidence. It started tracking the number of such videos last year after noticing a higher frequency in submissions. By the end of last year, it had received about 1,000 of these clips. Observers say the trend can help make drivers more careful. Source: http://www.straitstimes.com/breaking-news/singapore/story/more-using-car-cams-help-track-traffic-offenders-20140303
