Evening,

Anyone got one of the above? My 0801 is crashed/stopped recording/switched itself off more than it actually works now. Kinda pointless as I can pretty much guarantee it won't be working when I need to...

So thinking about replacing with the 0805 as I already have the suction mount to fit and don't want anything bigger. Just wonder if they're still crashy and shit in reality? It's all well and good reading reviews of them online but most aren't tested long term.

Cheers
Tom

Buy cheap, buy more often.

Get something decent that'll last.

The 0805 isn't cheap unfortunately. Sad Unless you're comparing it to one of those £300 blackhawks lol.

Transcend make some good dashcams but thery're a lot bigger than the 800 series but would sacrifice size for the video quality
