This video helped my decision to buy the Mini 2. Very glad I did. It works far better than my previous dash cam.
Super smart. Love that the .mp4 files are all 1min long. That makes sense. Video and audio is just great. Thankful I came across this video. Owned for a while now and put it through the paces. Does the job!

[dekelsey]

This was an excellent video for me as I'm shopping for a replacement for my dash cam that makes files that are sometimes not readable.
I like the features and compact size. You have to have a dash cam these days! Thank you.

I do not recommend. I have two garmin dash cams mini 2 and they both have the same problems. slow and crashing application. the quality of the recordings is very average, in poor lighting you will not be able to read plate numbers. the biggest mistake is the parking mode - despite the correct connection to the car's installation in the fuse box, the camera has power (lights up) but there is no chance that it will detect a parking crash... maybe if your parked car rolls over or a tank crashes into it. No motion detection, only G sensor which is not working well. the camera in the parking mode records only when you hit the camera directly with your hand. you can hit the car from all sides, swing the car and nothing will be saved. From customer service you can't get help, after 3 months they told me that all cameras are like this, they were unable to make the parking mode work. Product is not working as it is described on the manufacturer's website. the only solution is to return it and get your money back. Only advantage is its size but it's not worth problems you get with it.

Here's my setup:
* Turn on the car
* Garmin turns on
* Car connects to my phone BT - mainphone(samsung nr1)
* By a routine activated coz the car is connected through BT to the phone, the phone automatically creates a wifi HotSpot
* My other Samsung device(nr 2) mounted as a navigationsphone goes from superpowersave to normal, also here as routine: if the phone is charging, disable superpowersave
* my Samsung (nr2) connects to my the Wifi, so does Mini2

And therefore I can easily download and manage photos/videos instantly in the car.

Installed the mini 2 front and rear. After 2 years both stopped working just a few days past the 2 year warranty. I had a near miss so I checked the recorded videos, all were grainy and has either greenish/pink image. I've read a discussion having similar issue, they suggested to pry it open and tighten the T5 screws that fastens the camera lens. So I did and to my surprise it was working for a short while but when I installed it back to my car the problem reoccured. It has a small footprint but not having a screen means you can't have a quick look if it's still properly recording. The Garmin Drive app is rubbish when you try to connect it with your phone and generally doesn't work when Apple Carplay is connected. 2 mini's and 2 years later, dead.

I have a problem with the image. My Garmin dash cam mini 2 is recording but the image comes in black and purple background. I never had a issues till now

[Clintscollectiblez]

I put a sd card in mine and hooked it up right but no videos are gettin saved?or does it make you pay to see them after 24 hours I think it said so if so that's bullshit and scammy

[pan]

Can it connect with the Garmin 66 GPS?

[bradl]

No GPS is a feature not a bug. Ask any attorney.

[Zethuzzz]

Does it upload the videos to the cloud and does it need a subscription to access them?

[AdamSD]

Lol… this came out only a year ago and still doesn’t have USB-C.

[alexkaa]

Can it be connected to a car WiFi and accessed remotely from the app for live streaming? Can it send motion alerts to a phone over the internet?

[mohindersingh]

Sir, I live in a village. I need a camera which can be installed inside the vehicle and can record 24 hours so that no one can damage the vehicle. Which can record even in complete darkness. Please tell me about such a camera.

[izdagrimeyone]

I have it and ran the wire. Nobody knows I have it till i hit a bump and makes the record sound it is that good. Might buy a second.

[Corvette.Ronnie]

It's my understanding that if you have the "Garmin Drive" app running while you're driving, GPS information is kept.

[tobiasreaper]

I have a similar rotating ballpoint connection in my camera but I can also screw it down too so that it will get super steady, in this garmin is it steady enough? it looks like if you'd go a bit offroad it could easily loose the picture frame position.

[Maciej]

is that's thing which is glued is it rotable ??

[octoman]

does it run on battery? does the wifi show you live video over your phone?

[CountryboyBOB]

Does it have to plugged into power to function?
Thanks

08/22/2023: I live in Florida and it is very hot all year long. Which dash camera will hold up inside in a car that could reach 140 degrees fahrenheit? I do not wish to spen over $200.00, and I do not want to see high percetage of 1-star reviews. Am I just dreamer ofr a resonable product?
