Great next gen dash camera. I like that it has the cabin and rear cameras. I also like that I can turn those off if I want. The GPS system is quick to start up and get into sync with the satellites; unlike my previous GPS enabled dash cams that took up to 2-3 minutes or more. I can use up to a 512GB memory card so I am good to go for about 24-30 hours or more depending on if I use all three cameras. The kit has everything you need to get started including a plastic pry-bar. The added bonus was the inclusion of window mounting film so that the cameras aren't stuck directly onto your windows. This made for easy adjustments on the fly - especially on the rear mounted system.
I also like the new user interface with the touch screen, it makes for in flight changes much easier and faster. As this is still a new-ish purchase, I will update in another month or so.
The system records into three main folders and also has a 'protected' system to prevent the system from overwriting if you have it set to auto-loop. This makes it really easy to locate video files.
Video quality for all three video streams is good (2K front, 1080p internal and 1080p rear).
My only asks for Rove should they opt to make an R4 dash cam system is to merge the R2-4K and R3 into a dash cam with a 4K front camera with 2K rear and 1080P cabin cameras. I'd also like to have multiple memory card slots or support for memory sizes beyond 512GB.
If you are interested in a new dash cam and want superb build quality, excellent features and good support, this is a very good candidate.
