Best Selling Mirror Dash Cam? Coral LM5 12" 2K Smart Rear Mirror Dash Cam Review

Описание: Is the Coral LM5 the best selling 12" 2K mirror dash camera? Watch our review to find out. You can buy the Smart Mirror direct for $199 with free shipping here http://bit.ly/DashMirror.

This is a dash cam and rear-view mirror for your car that simply attaches to your existing rear-view mirror. On the back there is a 2K resolution dash camera and under the mirrored surface there is a high quality IPS display.

You can toggle the display by tapping on the mirror or by pressing the main function button that's located underneath. Once powered you can view what the dash camera sees alongside all the functions you have enabled.

Along the middle there are some key function buttons to mute the microphone and take a photo, toggle recording, save an event and view settings.

The display and camera on the LM5 is really nice. It's bright with a wide field of view, and the screen is very responsive. Touch input is consistent and reliable, and it's fast enough to switch between various menus, functions and playback.

With no WiFi/app support, you either have to view your recordings from the SD card on your desktop computer, or you can view your content on the wide 12-inch touchscreen display. Viewing playback on a big display is much faster than viewing in an app on your smartphone.

To enter into playback mode, you simply swipe right, anywhere on the screen, to enter into the playback menu. From here you can view back all the video clips on the mirror display by selecting a thumbnail in the menu on the left side of the display and view your selected video on the right half of the screen.

The dash cam carries some decent specs. It has a 2K recording resolution of 2560x1440P. It's worth pointing out that you don't see this entire capture on the mirror display, it's more of a horizontal crop along the center of the full video being captured - so you have to bear that in mind when adjusting the camera's overall position. There is a 6 glass wide angle lens that features a 160-degree field of view, which offers a nice wide angle view of the road ahead of you.

Videos are recorded in MP4 format with the choice of using either h.264 or h.265 compressions and at fresh rates of either 50 or 60Hz. With these specs you get a great level of detail and clarity in the videos that are captured from the dash cam. Daylight captures carry good detail, smooth frame rates, and great quality, thanks to its high quality lens and wide field of view. Night time recording quality is also very good, with little glare and detail is kept sharp and clear when compared to my 70mai Pro camera.

The Coral LM5 Rear-view Mirror Dashboard Camera retails for $199 directly from Coral and it comes with free shipping. There is a lot to like with this product, however there are a few refinements that could be made to make it truly a must have accessory in your car or a recommended replacement for your existing dashboard camera.
