About this deal

The Garmin Mini 2 is missing a feature which we consider almost essential on a dash cam – the GPS sensor which stamps speed and location info on your footage. But it has still made it to our top tier because it is absolutely tiny. Even with the mount, it is small enough to be hidden in your hand, which means it will not be visible to anyone but the nosiest passer-by or concours judge. That might be important if you are trying to maintain the original look of your classic. Advanced software features include GPS location recording, to precisely pinpoint the location of an incident, Lane departure warning and front collision avoidance with a distance alert system.

At first, we were really impressed with the technology used in this unusual-looking camera. Like most of the devices here there is a smartphone app which helps you set up the options and view footage, but the Scosche Nexar goes a stage further by automatically connecting your phone to the camera as soon as you start driving. It then sends the footage to a remote cloud-based storage, as well as the built-in 16GB memory card. In addition to recording footage, matched speed is a very helpful resource. Some mid-range dash cams have GPS as standard, and you can certainly get it if you want it. Just remember to consider the other important factors of dash cams too. The Ring comes in a close second, and would be our first choice if you prefer to have a screen to play with the menus. The Kenwood feels like a quality product and delivers consistently good quality footage too. Like the Kenwood, it has to make do with 1080p video capture, but some clever Garmin tech means it is better than average quality. Pioneer VREC-DH200

What’s it like?

The smallest dash cams, such as the Garmin Mini 2, are about the size of a garlic bulb. They hide very well behind a rear-view mirror but, if not engineered well, can be annoying to use. A dash cam with a screen size of two to three inches will be bigger but generally easier to use (Garmin Mini 2 notwithstanding).

Ring says the camera only supports up to 64GB, which is a little small given 512GB cards aren’t too pricey these days. Of course, you can use bigger cards, but it seems it’s not ‘officially signed off’. It might not be a name you’ve ever heard of, but DDPAI are big in the dash cam market globally and it’s easy to see why. The Mola is about half the size of an ice lolly and has a reasonably compact mount which makes it easy to hide on a shallow windscreen.

About Klarna

Looking head on, it’s no bigger than the average business card and the mount is compact too, meaning it will fit discreetly behind most rear-view mirrors. Despite the size, it has a screen which makes navigating menus and aiming the lens easy.
