BeAngel 10 Inch Touch Screen Car Camera 10" Rearview Mirror FHD 1080P Dash DVR Cam Backup Camera Night Vision Front and Rear Dual Lens Video Recorder Reversing

I put this item in a 2016 Ford Escape, partially because of the perceived security of having recordings of possible collisions and such, and also to use the rear camera as a full-time replacement for the rear view mirror. This device accomplishes those desires well enough to suit my purposes, with caveats. Here's my breakdown:1) Easy to install. Obviously strapping it to the mirror is self-explanatory. For my vehicle, the cable to the rear camera was more than long enough. Routing the cables for power and rear camera and tucking under trim panels was simple and finished in about 15 minutes. Hooking up the rear camera to reverse lights required trim panel removal on my vehicle, but was otherwise just as simple.2) Image quality. I am not a dedicated videophile, so the resolution of both cameras is more than sufficient for my needs. During daylight hours, both cameras provide stunning resolution, even my rear camera that is mounted on the interior of the hatch and looking out of a tinted window. With the rear camera wired to trigger off the reverse lights, the camera switches and displays the guidelines as designed. That is during daylight...3) "Night vision". Both cameras display images picked up at night, but JFC the glare halo from light sources are horrible. The rear camera does not display a great image on rural roads around my town where there are few streetlamps; maybe because of the tinting on the rear window. I'm going to continue running it as is, and I did take away a star for the supposed night vision that I don't actually see from either camera.4) Touchscreen and menus. The screen is very responsive to touch and the menus are simple enough to figure out. Using the hard wire kit mentioned below, my default views aren't retained when I turn off the vehicle. I use the rear camera as my rear view mirror while operating the vehicle, but the display defaults to the front camera when turning the vehicle on. I just swipe sideways before putting it into reverse and problem solved; that's really just a nitpick gripe, not a deal breaker for me.5) Power wiring. This is a gray area and isn't a part of the rating criteria IMHO, but it is important to note. If you hard wire to your vehicle's fuse block using fuse taps, you will need a kit that takes 12V-24V input, and provides at least 5V @ 2.5A output. There are lots of these kits on here, but none of the suppliers are smart enough to list the amperage as a filter, so you will probably end up clicking on a lot of item descriptions just to find out that the item provides inadequate current for this device. Wouldn't it be cool if this seller provided a link directly to such a wiring kit in the item details?6) Shipping and handling. I received someone else's returned item, or it was a refurbished item that I was charged new price for. There were no lens films on any of the lenses, the microSD was inserted in the unit with someone's videos and picture files still on it, there were scuffs on the back of the unit from being mounted previously and clearly for a long enough period that it scuffed the case due to vibration. The unit also arrived in a standard Amazon shipper, but without any packing material, so it was just bouncing side to side in the larger box. I consider myself lucky that the thing even turned on after that kind of abuse, which speaks well of its ability to survive a collision. I'm not dropping stars, because the product mostly fulfills my needs as advertised.Overall tl;dr - good camera, solid buy, don't expect anything remotely resembling night vision.EDIT 3/24/20 - As noted above in item #6, I originally received a used item from the Amazon warehouse. It was disappointing, but not enough that I wanted to deal with the hassle of packing everything back up and returning it to Amazon and then wait even more time for a replacement. The seller, Heibeimiaodou, read my review and contacted me and apologized profusely for that confusion. Without solicitation on my part, they sent me a new camera setup. First-rate response from a company that cares how the customer values their products and service. Now I would definitely encourage anybody to buy with confidence; not just because of the opportunity for freebies, but because this seller stands by their reputation.EDIT 8/21/20: I have had the "new" item installed since my previous edit. Everything has been working as desired since that edit until recently. I wanted to use this device as a full-time rear view camera, but recently the device prefers to just randomly and endlessly cycle through the various view modes while in motion. Sometimes it cycles, sometimes it does what it was intended to do. Another fun thing while it cycles is that it won't let me stop recording or otherwise interrupt the cycling without powering the whole unit off. This is disappointing, and eventually I will have to replace this item, but it was fun while it lasted I guess. I have downgraded my review to a 3 star because the brand new item hasn't even managed to last 6 months without going kaput.Edit 1/15/21: Adjusted the review once again. While installing my custom audio, I found that the ground for this item's power adapter had worked loose somehow. I re-terminated the ground connection with a full ring terminal, and found a more stable grounding point; since then, this unit has operated flawlessly well. It is embarrassing to blame the product for my failures. Once again, it is definitely a fantastic value camera that fulfills all of my needs.

I mounted this backup camera on my F250 truck and 30" trailer. I was able to get a second camera and longer cables to accommodate my setup. They had to send them separately from China, but they got here faster than I thought they would. (1 week). I installed one of the cameras on the back of my truck down by the license plate. This is plugged into the top of the monitor that goes over the existing rear view mirror. I use this setup when I'm not towing my trailer or to back up to my trailer and line up on my hitch. Then I unplug the wire to the camera on the truck license plate, and plug into the trailer setup. I installed the second camera on the back of the 30' trailer and because it's already hooked into the backup lights at the truck, it shows the backup guide lines when I put it in reverse. This is handy when i'm backing up a 30' trailer. This camera is great how you can change the angle up or down with a flick of your finger on the monitor to change the angle of your view. If you have to install your camera at the bumper or at the top of your trailer you don't have to worry you won't get a good view, and when you put it in reverse it remembers where the angle of view was for reverse. There are alot of other features on the monitor but the recording is really clear. I lost something out the back of my truck and was able to track it down because it saw it on the playback after it happened, I figured out where I lost it and went back and found it. Also something I didn't know about, if you take the SD card out an play it on the computer you can do a so called 360 degree look. this only works when you turn and the view point can be bent around ( they must piece your view of the turn into one video) that you can view from one pan vision to where it looks like your looking behind you. This camera is really something. Thanks, Don B.

Before setting up and wiring the cameras, I tested out the front-view and rear-view cameras. The front view camera works well, is high definition, and has good night-vision. The touchscreen function is smooth and responsive. However, the rear-view camera does not function! It seemed to work for a brief moment and actually captured a short video, but I have not been able to get it to work again since that first 10 seconds. This is frustrating because the rear-view camera was the main function of this product that I was looking forward too.EDIT: I reached out to customer support with my issue, and they were very quick to respond! They are sending out a replacement to fix my issue. Great customer support!
