Which is better, wired or wireless car dash cams?
1 Answers
When comparing wired and wireless car dash cams, wired ones are more highly recommended. Wireless dash cams rely on WiFi or Bluetooth to connect to mobile devices. If using Bluetooth for data sharing, transmission may be affected due to inherent Bluetooth technology limitations. For WiFi connections, the metal structure of vehicles can interfere with WiFi signals, compromising the dash cam's stability. Additionally, wireless dash cams use battery power, which generally offers inferior endurance compared to wired models. Poor-quality batteries further reduce endurance and may pose safety risks. Moreover, dash cams mounted on windshields are constantly exposed to direct sunlight, and high temperatures can significantly shorten battery lifespan. Wired dash cams, on the other hand, offer multiple power options such as cigarette lighters, center consoles, or fuse boxes, eliminating battery limitations. Some discreet wired models also feature compact designs and support WiFi connections for live viewing playback and settings adjustments via smartphones. Installation is straightforward with concealed wiring. Recommended brands include DDPai, Papago, 360, 70mai, and Xiaomi.
