Review
Not sure if anyone tested the Auto parking ( motion detection ) mode? * Auto parking(motion detection) mode switch * Motion detection alert * From my experience, it does not work at all. I bought IROAD v7 on 28 Nov 2014 during SITEX show in Singapore Expo. Setup & installation done by IROAD technical support folks on-site. A few days later, I found that the above mentioned parking mode does not work because I saw that it keeps on recording when I'm parking at my place's underground car park. Worse is when I stop my car to wait for my family & if it is more then 10+ minutes, the video recorder will alert & switch off the car engine. I call Corvit @+65-66590141. The tech support told me that I've to reformat the memory card. I did that and try again - Not working. I went to Corvit's technical support located at 21 Bukit Batok Crescent #28-73, Wcega Tower Singapore 658065 to ask why it is not working. The first thing that the technical support told me is that the product is working and that user don't know how to use it. I then ask the technical support person to set for me so that when I park my car, it will only record when a motion is detected. The technical support person do the proper setting and told me that it will work with the new setting. I went home & test it and it is still not working. I visited Corvit's technical support center again the following week to ask what happened and why the IROAD v7 keeps on recording when the car is parked overnight? The technical support person start to make excuses. He said that even though it is parking, there will be wind blowing and if this happened, motion detection will be activated. I told him that it is an underground car park and it is impossible to have wind continuously blowing every minute because the IROAD v7 keeps recording every minute for more then 12+ hours. After I make noise for a while, the technical support person admit that the specific Auto Parking ( motion detection ) does not work no matter what option you choose. I was told that I'm not the only one giving this feedback. They knew about this problem even during the SITEX show and he blurt it out that they already feedback to HQ but HQ is not coming up with a fix.
What I like
Design
What I do not like
Frustrated that the sales person in SITEX did not tell me the truth.
Also disappointed that technical support team in Corvit is not honest.

[B][U]IROAD V7 full unboxing and review on the exterior design of the device[/U][/B] My first look of the front and rear camera was that it was futuristic and compact. I have experience with another brand of camera and I have to say the design impressed me a good deal. The front camera is hidden right behind the rear view mirror of my car which is something of a plus point. I choose to have it installed by the authorised installer Tip Top Car Audio & Accessories Centre at Blk 18 Sin Ming Industrial Estate Sector A #01-45 (DID: 64587406 and the boss name is Ricky: 84464646). The boss is a super friendly person. Installation was quick about 45 minutes (had my breakfast, came back and its done). I paid $80 for the installation. I met with a small setback though, the wireless dongle that came with the set was spoilt on installation and I discovered it the next day when I couldnt connect to retrieve the footage. Went back to TipTop and the boss exchange it without any further question with one of his own dongle, even though he is not obliged to do so. Good service [IMG]https://www.dropbox.com/sc/b6yimy2e3lbdkkm/AABZPBRyWOILhNtQ-Lq8t3Z5a#lh:0-Installation%201.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.dropbox.com/sc/b6yimy2e3lbdkkm/AABZPBRyWOILhNtQ-Lq8t3Z5a#lh:1-Installation%202.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.dropbox.com/sc/b6yimy2e3lbdkkm/AABZPBRyWOILhNtQ-Lq8t3Z5a#lh:2-Installation%203.jpg[/IMG]
What I like
1) Price
2) Battery Usage
3) User friendly mobile app
What I do not like
1) No review screen on camera
2) Use of wireless dongle
3) Night footage not good enough

Falling in love with my iRoad V7 DashCam! Both the front and rear cameras were very clear in the day. You can make out the car plate number easily. I really like the wide angle of the cameras, it gives a good coverage. But in low light situation in the tunnel, the video were less clear. Overall all still very satisfied with this product!! =)
What I like
Clear Vision!
What I do not like
The video were less clear under low light situation
