I bought this camera as a replacement to a Dash Cam 20 that was stolen. This camera works great. Video quality is excellent. Alerts can be annoying but they do what they're supposed to do,( they can be turned off )The only issues are that the camera get very hot and shuts off, even after the updates. Doesn't get as hot on 720P. the other issue is that you only get one replacement adhesive back mounting tape. Order the suction mount if you want to move to other vehicles.
This camera is well made. I have no issues to report as this is a very dependable dash cam. I don't leave home without it. Perfect size for the windshield not to big doesn't stick out making it hard to notice depending on your placement of course. If you buy one you are sure to like it.
I have used several different dash cams over the years and so far the Garmin 45 has been the best camera in this price range. They have others that are just as good that have more features and cost more but for a Dash Cam with GPS tracking, time, date and speed stamp this is the best.
the older car it was plugged into had 12v on all the time on the accessory plug. Didnt kill the battery but filled up the 64gb flash. Needs rewiring to connect to the radio power on connector.
I love the small footprint on my windshield, it's not a distraction at all. Easy to install and I was able to run the power cord along the interior molding so there's no dangling cord. Instructions said to apply the base to the windshield the temp should be between 70 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit. I figured they wouldn't sell many here in Minnesota in March if that was true so I went ahead and did it when it was 35 and it worked fine. Very happy with it so far and it's not to tough to transfer the video to my phone.
Works well mostly. 1. Improvements needed in lane departure warning. My car has the feature and most of the time when it goes off the dashcam does not and vice versa. 2. Wish the videos and pictures were actually transferred to my smartphone when connected by the VIRB app. All you can do is view them on the phone while you are next to the dashcam and the dashcam is powered on. I'd rather be able to view them on my phone later and in a different place. 3. Also wish the screen were bigger. 4. Also would be nice if it came with 2 more magnets to mount in 2 other cars so the dashcam could be moved to different cars.
Since this is my first experience with a Dash Camera, I really don't have anything to compare it to, so I will just comment on my use of this Garmin Dash Cam 45. I only purchased this because my son who is a fairly new driver with his own new car, wanted it and I thought it would be a good idea. I mounted the camera in the middle of the windshield and routed the wire down the drivers side of the windshield and plugged it into the 12v/lighter connection. The first time we used it I could not tell if it was on or not and if it was recording. My fault since I did not download the Garmin VIRB App to connect it to the camera. We just drove to see what would happen and what would be recorded. I still could not tell if anything was going on with the camera and I wasn't able to get it to do anything I wanted it to do like play what was recorded. The so-called Instruction Manual that came with the dash cam was a "Quick Reference Guide" and mostly showed how to mount the camera, not very useful. So when we got home after that initial test run, I went online to get the full instruction manual to see what I did wrong. I also downloaded the VIRB app on my phone as well as the Garmin Express software on my laptop. These downloads weren't as "user friendly" as I would have hoped for and I had to figure out how to navigate them to work with the dash cam. When I finally figured out how to get the dash cam, the VIRB app and the Garmin Express to all work together, is when I was actually told myself that this thing might actually be worth it. The LCD on the camera is not really useful other than for navigating through the menu on the camera because as a screen to view the videos or photos, you can't really see much since it is so small. Now I understand that to have a camera with a small footprint you cannot have a large screen. The Driver Assist features work as advertised, those were the first things I noticed since both the Lane Departure and Forward Collision warning went off every time my son would drift outside his lane or get too close to the car in front of him at a stop light. These features actually work better then the same features on his 2018 Toyota Camry, although they were quite annoying. As he gets more driving time behind the wheel I may just turn off that feature if he wants. All in all, with this being my first purchase and experience with a dash cam, I found this Garmin Dash Cam 45 to be somewhat satisfying in that the features that were advertised is exactly what the camera was capable of although I did have a hard time getting them to work. I will probably get the Parking Mode Cable to "hard wire" this dash cam to my sons car to add the camera recording while parked feature which should add to the usefulness of this dash cam.
Decent Camera, but when I changed the Micro SD Card to a 64 gig, I notice that there is a break in saved video ever minute or so that last just a second,but that makes it imposable to have a clean, continuous video. I also notice that the camera gets extremely warm while recording. My biggest problem is that the camera does not have a suction cup that allows for transfer from company vehicle to personal vehicle.
The dash cam is great I love the way records I love the sauce small problem is I had to go to multiple YouTube channels to find someone who can show me how to use it and show me all the features. Garmin provided almost no instructions no guide no nothing! I guess you just have to figure it out yourself.
As a Dash Cam it works as it should. Extra features not so good, Red light alert, at the same light, same conditions alerts then alerts a second time next day doesn't alert. Go Alert sounds even after being in motion for some distance. Forward collision Warning, will give it a 4 star for its warning when drivers cut in from an adjoining lane. Will keep using it with Red Light and Go Alert disabled. (I do realize a Cyclops subscription is required for updates but the red light issues are at the same old light(s).
