2.5K Mirror Dash Cam with Carplay Mirror & Android Auto, Dash Cam Front and Rear with Zoom Function,12 inches Rear View Mirror Camera with Voice Control/BT Call/64GB Card Included-JOMISE K17 Pro

Using this in an older car and the quality of life gained is tremendous.Having android auto and carplay with a reversing camera brings my old beater into the current decade, but most importantly the dashcam for safety and deterrence of problematic drivers/would-be thieves. The straps around the unit is very study and doesn't wiggle, basically makes the unit one with my previous mirror. Works as a normal mirror when the system is off.Installation can be simple, but more work needs to be done if you want it to look nice/work well. Three main connectors to the unit (GPS, Reverse Camera, Power). They give you two options for mounting the reversing camera. I opted for routing it to my trunk and drilling a hole because I needed a proper backup/reverse camera. If you do not that need, you can stick it to your back windshield and use it just for the dashcam feature. Note you must not have tint if you want to do it this way. I had questions on how to do the installation, so I contacted customer service. First via the phone, but the rest through email. They were very prompt and came back with images and installation videos. (I ended up crimping instead of soldering + 3M tape and screws) The gps dongle sits at the top right of the car window via 3M tape. The power cord runs directly down to the cigarette lighter for me. I like to make it noticeable as a deterrent while driving and parked.On initial boot, it wants you to reformat the memory card (it came with one). I followed the prompt and it walked me through connecting my phone to the device without hassle. After the initial setup, it recognizes my phone every time and the startup isn't as tedious as my previous android auto system (5 secs vs 40 secs). I use the bluetooth transmitter to connect it to my car's audio. The camera works well enough, even at night. You slide the screen to scroll through the different ui interfaces, I like having half android auto, half back camera, but you can make it full screen back view for maximum safety. When I look at the memory, all the footage is there and playable. Hopefully the unit lasts awhile. It seems to be the only reservation on the product, but my customer service interaction has been pleasant and attentive- if the time comes to use the warranty, I am thinking they will take care of me.

Man, this K17 Pro 2.5K Mirror Dash Cam is incredible! I wasn’t expecting it to be this nice when I purchased it, but no joke, once I set it up it felt like my car leveled up. It has a HUGE screen — I’m talking like a 12-inch complete touchscreen, and the video quality is extremely detailed — I can literally zoom in up to 3x and see every detail. I even tested it out during the night and the rain, and it was still extremely clear. The best part, for me, is that it begins recording once you get in the car — so you don’t even have to think about it. The voice control feature is also super convenient since I don’t want to be messing around with buttons while I’m driving. It even connects with Android Auto and Carplay which reminds me of all those advertisements for fancy cars.One other thing I have absolutely loved is the amount of stuff they put in the box. A backup camera, a 64GB memory card, all the straps, and even a cleaning cloth, it was like they covered every little detail imaginable. The GPS and G-sensor guarantees that it captures random moments you women expect; It even keeps track of your trips, which is perfect if you're like me and you forget most of the places you have been to for the duration of the drive. I honestly feel like every car should come with these installed because it makes driving so much easier, safer, and cooler in general. Totally worth it, no regrets!

Pros:Big screen since it is the same size as your rear view mirrorHas Car Play built inEasy to setup and useCons:A bit heavy so if your rearview mirror swivel is not tight then the mirror body tends to move down and you have to readjust itWhen looking at the screen in daylight it’s hard to see since the screen is very reflective. I get it because it’s supposed to act as a review mirror when the screen is not on. I like to keep the screen on at all times. So you end up seeing the reflection of the mirror mixed with the screen. I wish there was a way to make the reflection more matte when using the screen primarily.The rearview camera is wide view which is nice for seeing vehicles in your blind spot but also makes cars that are close in the direct rear seem farther away so it can be a bit deceptive.All in all I am happy with my purchase.

Had this for a couple weeks and really liking it. Installation was easy and straight forward. Setting it up as well. Video for rear and front camera looks clean both day or night. One of my favorite features is that you can have both camera and apple play in same screen. It was connection to plug to backup light so it triggers rear view every time you engage reverse. When screen is turn off (which is in a timer that you can pick from different times) reflection on the screen is good to be able to see, just like original. I’ve been using with playing music through Bluetooth. Overall great price and good quality.
