Good piece of kit, very pleased.
Unfortunately the wifi feature is useless for few reasons. I’ve been using this dash cam for few days. I bought the wifi model to eliminate the process of taking the memory card out of the device to view on full screen or backup the recordings. Unfortunately the wifi feature is useless for few reasons; (1) the camera will not turn the wifi on if you choose to record in highest resolution (1296p). (2) the wifi file transfer is extremely slow, a 3 minutes clips in 1080p will take 20+ minutes to transfer (3) the camera suggest you to pause recording if you choose to transfer files faster over the wifi although still it takes 15+ minutes to transfer a 3 minutes clip. The recordings in 1080p and 1296p are otherwise very clear and crisp.
Great little camera and very good value. Here are the specifications for the Mio Technology MIO MiVue 528 Dash Camera –:

- Enter your model number
to make sure this fits. - 2.4” (6.1cm) display screen with 1080 pixel full HD recording capability
- The MiVue 528 has a F1.8 lens, so it let’s more light in
- 3-Axis G-Sensor records direction and force, including impact, turns and acceleration
- The MiVue 528 starts recording when you turn the key to start your car
A good camera at a reasonable price. The recordings are a little on the dark side, but this can be compensate for in the menu. Overall, the videos are sharp and fairly clear but i wouldn’t consider them to be hd, although perhaps i’m being too critical as i do lot of high quality filming. The sound is good and clear as is the photo mode. Parking mode is available but not enabled by default so needs to be set up via the menu. The mivue manager program can be downloaded free and is excellent for viewing, saving and editing all recordings. The gps positioning allows you to view your position on a moving map and is accurate to about 10 meters. Overall, a great bit of kit, easy to use and very good value.
Bought as a gift for christmas for my sister, she seems to find it easy to use. The camera lense seems pretty good and captures everything and more as it’s really wide. She puts it to the left of the interior mirror. Only thing she doesn’t like about it is that you can’t leave the mount up and take the camera down as it’s too much hassle.
