For some reason, it turns into 2 minutes. What I thought was a 1 minute 4k clip of me driving around in daytime at a stop light intersection to see how the camera deals with fast moving cars left & right and front. Maybe, 98% of dash cam users have no need/expectations of drive videos being automatically uploaded and are happy with the videos being accessible on their smartphone only. Maybe, they will fix their remote Live connect. Maybe, manually uploading is how dashcams will work in the future due to the storage space required for 1080p or 4k videos. I have research to do to see if other dash cams upload their videos after each drive, which is top 3 critical aspects that I'm looking for.Īs it stands til I find some things out, I would not recommend this camera for fleet operations. I'll see about doing some night videos later this week to see. I was not yet concerned about videos at night as needed to have #1-#4 above in working order. They are working on it via firmware fixes.Īs for night time / license plate images. #3 is not functioning (as of 6 weeks ago). A 15 minute drive could easily be a 70MB clip. Also to upload a clip: not sure if encoding/decoding is going on or if their Nexar Cloud has weak hardware / bottleneck but it takes forever to upload. I would not have my techs manually upload after each drive. You have to 'share' the link via email or text message. Even when you upload a clip, you can not directly view the camera clip video on the Nexar webpage. Otherwise, the videos remain on your smartphone til over written by newer videos. You have to manually upload only selected clips. I was just informed by Nexar Support that Nexar One (their flagship camera) does NOT. Previous Nexar dash cam driving videos automatically uploaded to the Nexar cloud after each drive. So I could remote into a technicians camera to see where they are driving and see what they are doing (if had front / cabin combo camera). The whole point of wanting a dashcamera in all my work vehicles are for a couple of reasons I thought would be accomplishable:ġ.) in case of accident to have video recording of the event.Ģ.) to review their driving habits (does the tech speed excessively? stop of stop signs? etc)ģ.) With Nexar One, you have the ability to remote Live connect with the 5g LTE addon (this currently has bugs and it not working at the moment). Should be interesting to see their replies. I did toss Nexar support an email raising these concerns today. This is after 3 weeks of daily use in my work vehicle. But as of right now with current firmware, I could not recommend the Nexar One to anyone.personal or business. Nexar is updating the firmware and trying to fix these bugs. Granted, I have not read the instruction manual in depth yet (going to have to look for it.or download PDF to read on big screen) as previous cameras were simple plug and play. I have experienced all of these (other than remote). However, many say the thing just simply powers off 100% after 30 minutes. The unit goes into hibernation when car ignition is turned off (you could connect to continous power outlet, however) unless a shaking event happens (parking mode). Uploading videos to the Nexar Cloud does not work for most people. Example, the remote connectivity does not work for most people ( I currently do not have the remote connnectivity option because wanted to try the base camera out first). I usually do not take internet reviews to heart unless it seems 85% of the people complain about the same thing. What has gone wrong to sour my impression? Nexar also has an enterprise plan just for a small business like me (though a tad spendy.have not done extensive cost analysis on this part yet). 1080p or 4k recordings, remote 4g LTE connectivity that I can live stream my techs driving around to my PC at the office at any second (or maybe directly to my smartphone.unsure about that one), cabin camera, does not look like a brick hanging near the rear view mirror, pretty decent video quality at day and night. In my search, the Nexar One seemed like a perfect fit. I was holding out for Dahua's dashcam since I strongly favor their IP cameras, but unknown when they will hit the market nor what all features would be included. I was in the hunt for a enterprise dashcam for my 5 work vehicles being the owner and wanting to see driving habits of my technicians when driving out and about, not to mention to keep a recording of any accidents, along with driving history in conjunction with Google Maps. The "drive" videos were easy to review on a smartphone and automatically uploaded to the Nexar cloud to review via their website. Not even sure what video format was used (720 or 1080). They actually worked really simple and great. I previously owned 2 different Nexar/Skorche cameras before, I forget the models but something like NX1 or such.
