Garmin Dash Cam™ X210, Compact 1440p HD Dash Cam with a 140-degree Field of View, Built in Clarity™ Polarizer, Voice Controlled, GPS, 2.4” Display, Automatic Recording

I currently own a Garmin 57 dash cam and have been very happy with it and it goes between my personal and work vehicles. When Garmin released a 4K camera, I jumped at it. Now I have the 57 installed permanently in the work vehicle and the X310 in my personal vehicle. Garmin has the best phone app out there and it works flawlessly between the cameras. The X310 works just like the 57-menu system and supposedly it has even sharper video, although the video looks pretty much the same as the 57. I attribute this to the fact that I don't have a 4k monitor to view it on, just a regular 1080p monitor, so I'm not seeing any sharpness upgrade on my monitor. Aside from this the video is still great, colors, sharpness and all. I do like the added touchscreen making it much easier to navigate the menu, not that the button system of the 57 was hard. The x310 is a smaller footprint in thickness than the 57, the width and height, close to the same. I will admit it is a bit spendy, but it's totally worth it for the quality, the Garmin name behind it, and phone app. It's super small and fits right behind my rearview mirror so it's never a distraction. The voice commands are great, and they always work flawlessly. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.Nov 17, 2024 update. I recently caught an accident of a guy racing up beside me and then smashing head first into a car that was in the center turn lane. I wished I had a rear camera to see when the guy pulled out and raced up the center lane. So, I bought the Garmin Mini 3 to put in my back window. Was super simple, plugged adapter into to back 12v cigarette lighter port right by the back hatch, ran wire just up the side door seal and spiraled the wire(you wrap it around a dowel, heat the wire with a heat gun/hairdryer, let cool, take off and turn the wire wrap the opposite direction...you now a coiled wire) to allow the hatch to open an close without having wire hanging. Stuck to corner of back window, and connected to the Garmin app. Now they both work in unison and connect flawlessly every time via Wi-Fi. A caveat, if you ever need to download a video, you can do it with the Wi-Fi, it can be done, but it's a bit slow and cumbersome, ideally, taking out the card and putting in a computer is much better. If you have a mini usb phone, like the iPhone 14 or newer you can plug your phone right into the usb on the new Garmins and it’s super-fast, just like a computer. Now I have front and back videos. I'm very happy with the 4K video out the front and the 1080p out the back. Both videos are clear and sharp, very happy with the Garmin Mini 3.

Needed a new dash cam that recorded in 4K and Garmin was one of only a few that had an option to automatically upload video clips to the cloud (via paid subscription). This cam is everything you expect from Garmin; high quality manufacturing and materials, great packaging and instructions, and easy to use and set up. Three negatives: it’s very expensive, it doesn’t include a micro USB card unlike some competitors, and it doesn’t include a suction cup windshield mount (that’s sold separately at a ridiculous price of $25). Otherwise, it works extremely well, is made extremely well, and is a very compact size with an attractive non-glare matte finish. If you want the best and are willing to pay a high price (plus another $100-150 on top for all the additional parts you’ll need), this is a great choice.

Bought this for my car since I have the mini 2 model. It’s very easy to use and it’s small so it doesn’t block any view. The camera records a good quality video.

Very easy to set up and use. I love garmin as a brand and their application. However, the quality you receive for the price of it is not worth it. You can’t read license plates at all, it’s very low quality. For the same price you can get a non-recognizable brand that has a front and rear camera and higher quality. I returned it due to its unimpressive performance.

Excellent hardware crippled but junk app.Camera records perfectly, doing just want I want it to (acting as a security cam on my boat). The problem is, Garmin tries to ram their "Vault" subscription down your throat in order to access the cam remotely.I have it connected permanently to wifi, and I'm accessing the video stored on the cameras and card...so what exactly am I paying you for?Even more annoying, the app often demands a vault subscription when connecting locally! Connecting directly to the cam is supposed to be free, and usually works, but not always. More often in the last week it's been not working.I'd return it if I was inside the return window.
