Where is the memory card slot located on a dash cam?

The memory card slot location varies depending on the dash cam model: 1. For card-type and screenless dash cams, the slot is typically on the left or right side of the device body; 2. For rearview mirror-style dash cams, the slot is usually on the upper side of the device. A dash cam is an instrument that records video, audio, and related information during vehicle operation, consisting of a main unit, speed sensor, and data analysis software. The functions of a dash cam include: 1. Providing decisive evidence for solving cases involving staged accidents or highway robbery; 2. Preserving valid evidence during accidents to facilitate rapid handling by traffic police.

When I bought my first dash cam, it took me some time to find the memory card slot. It's usually located on the side or back of the device, with a small cover or notch—just insert the card directly. Some models have it under the screen or inside, which might require removing the device to check. For example, my old model had a slot that popped open with a gentle push on the edge. It's safest to operate it after parking, never fiddle with it while driving to avoid damaging the card or the device. Many newer dash cams now support hot-swapping, which is quite convenient.

As someone who often installs devices for friends, the memory card slot locations for dash cams vary greatly: for example, 360-branded devices have the slot on top, DDPai's is in the bottom corner, while higher-end models hide it internally. It's recommended to inspect the device thoroughly to locate the slot, usually marked. Most use microSD cards, and inserting them the wrong way can cause damage, so it's best to turn off the engine and power before handling.

After several attempts with different devices, I know the memory card slot is usually located on the main body of the dash cam. Try checking near the side notch or the power button. Some designs may require unscrewing to inspect the interior, while standard models make it immediately visible. For dual-channel dash cams, remember to verify the card insertion points for both front and rear cameras separately.
