Garmin 67W Dash Cam Review & Footage

The Garmin 67W has a whopping 180 degree field of view, so you're sure to capture a significant portion of everything that happens on the road in front of you when using it. Watch my video for plenty of up close footage.

Hopefully the camera records decent sounding quality audio? UPDATE: I just bought this camera, and tried it out. Well, thankfully, it turns out, the audio quality is decent, and the video quality is more than decent. The video does look distorted at the extreme edges, but that is because of the fisheye effect lens that this camera has. However, the area that's most important, looks very normal, good and clear. The fisheye look is actually what you want, because it allows for a very wide field of view. 180 degrees, I believe it is. This is far more than most dashcams. The setup is a little bit of pain (what dashcam isn't), but once you have it setup, you're good to go. Overall, I really like my Garmin 67W. So far, their app is the best rated app, and that's important. Their cameras and app keep getting better over time. Another great thing I like about Garmin dashcams is that they are very small and compact, and black. This easily helps it to be stealthy looking, and mostly hidden. I actually have two of these cameras setup in my pickup truck. One facing forward, and the other one rearward. If I ever get involved in an accident, all I have to do is easily remove the cameras and put them in my pocket, then wait for the police. It's a great peace of mind.

You need to show if you are able to read a license plate in the dark. That is the real challenge for any dash cam. Who cares about driving around in the rain footage.

I am checking the Garmin models because I have others Garmin's products and I like it. But these reviews are terrible. Only say "it's good" "it's nice". There are many cons too. A good review compare both sides of the coin. I recommend users review (not sponsored by).

Do you have to tell it to start recording once you get in the car, or does it automatically start upon starting the vehicle?
And the live view monitoring--how long will it record while the car is parked?

How do you deal between charginf the dash cam or the cellphone?
DashCam should be automatically turned on upon car start. Otherwise driver may forget to do it

So once you put the sticker on and you change your car (buy new etc) you have to buy a new camera?

If you have a Honda with Apple CarPlay this interference causes the iPhone and camera via Bluetooth. Downloading is an issue.

[dlivino]

Does it record to my memory card automatically when the car starts?

[supertruckerbigO]

hey wasup guys I have this dash cam and is recording in intervals and skipping footage i use it in my work truck and got into a miner fender bender and I couldn't find the footage of the incident I have a Samsun 500g sd card in it and I've looked all over the settings trying to figure it out any help is appreciated

[jbstuff]

Will a bigger size memory card make and difference?

Just bought this and i have an issue. Upon starting i have to select location, it doesn’t save it. Did firmware update and nothing. Talked to garmin support, sent them a video, no answer. It’s a bit frustrating to always have to manually select location. I think i’m going to sent it back and buy another brand.

Update: problem solved, you have to be outdoor to validate your location and once it does that you won't have any problems.

There are some big problems with the 67W and possibly the other Garmin models.

First and most important, it will not power up from the usb ports!!

My vehicle like many modern cars do not have a cigarette lighter outlet in the front so it is not possible to power the dashcam from this. The Garmin says it will work from usb outlets but also says this may not work and if it does not work then use cigarette lighter, they know their device is very flakey but have done nothing to fix it. Perhaps 1 in 10 attempts the device will work from usb and once it starts it will work for hours but you can't keep trying to plug it in as you will break the usb outlet as they are not very strong. All other devices I have tried work fine from the same usb outlet, it should provide enough power and the fact that on the very rare occasions the Garmin does start working it will continue to work proves that there is not an issue with the power outlet itself.

The second problem is that it uses Fat32 file format so can only accept cards up to 32GB, this might not sound a big problem but if you are going on a relatively long drive you will use more than 32GB worth so will start overwriting the earlier footage and loose any incidents (saving only saves a very short bit of footage/still which may not be enough).

If it does ever start working then it can produce some nice footage.

How to keep screen on camera on while driving mine does turn off

[ArnoldWinters]

But can it read license plates on the move?

[MolonFrikenLabe]

You said the camera connects via Wi-Fi, do you need Wi-Fi hotspot on on your mobile device or do you need Wi-Fi on on your mobile device?

[penmelyn]

isn't this a 1440p camera? the YT video is 1080p max so not much god to show off the camera's capability
