Customer Review: “We purchased the F7N Redtiger camera about 18 months ago and it has now paid for itself 100x over when it provided evidence to the police and insurance that my wife was not the one at fault in an accident that totaled her vehicle and the other party lied to the police. My wife was going to get the ticket after the officer talked to the other party first, but she was able to show the officer the cam video and they reversed course and issued the ticket to the other party. Then the other party lied to their insurance, but after providing the video to their insurance, the adjuster immediately accepted 100% responsibility.Easy to install and with clearly written English instructions. Great suction cup with integrated GPS antenna makes installation a breeze. Cam will slide off mount if you want to hide it while parked without removing the entire mount. Crystal clear video, front at 4k and back at 2k, produce high resolution video where you can read license plates and even identify who was driving another vehicle.Even more importantly, it has a good app that you can use to directly download video from the cam without pulling the card and taking it to a computer. Just in case you are in an accident, you can instantly download the relevant video to your phone and show to Law Enforcement and e-mail to your insurance company. This is hugely important so a ticket can be issued to the at-fault party on scene as my wife did. If you can’t show the officer when writing the report, they may issue the ticket to the wrong party or no one if they can’t figure out who was at fault. If this happens, it’s a long up-hill battle to get the other party’s insurance to pay out and the police will never cancel an incorrectly issued ticket, so it forces you to go to court to defend yourself. If you are in a serious accident (if anyone goes to the hospital, it’s serious), the officer may confiscate the SD card or even the whole camera for evidence. You may not get it back for weeks or even months. Sometimes they get lost an then you have nothing. Have a copy safely on your phone so you can give it to your insurance company and lawyer immediately!Buy the REDTIGER F7N Dash Cam Hardwire Kit to go with it if you want 24/7 monitoring without killing your car battery. Never wonder who backed into you in a parking lot or keyed your car if it happens to you.Some things that set Redtiger apart from the others:They actually have tech support. We had an issue with one camera not liking our SD card and contacted support to see if we had a bum Cam or bad setting as the issue was intermittent. Turns out it was just a faulty card after running a write test on the computer. Not a big issue as SD cards are cheap, but good to know that if you have an issue that Redtiger does support what they sell.Software updates. We’ve owned the F7N for about 18 months and have received software updates to improve functionality. The cam was great when we got it and even better now with new features added.Proof in the pudding:We liked our F7N so much we just bought another Redtiger cam, a F7N Touch, for a new (to us) vehicle and it’s great too.Note: I wasn’t paid for this review nor given a demo unit or anything else. I’m only a satisfied customer that is enjoying the premium quality and features at a great price vs the big-name competitors and their high prices.”

Customer Review: “For me not knowing what dashcam to get, I think this was a great choice. The small capacity SD card is a letdown but for what you’re paying, it works great. Not cheap, not overpriced. It has come in handy quite a few times. Easy plug in and just suction mount to the window. Great video quality too, it helped my local police locate a stolen vehicle. And no need to worry if you live in cold areas cause it got down to -20°F here and the camera had no issues.”

Customer Review: “Great product, clear video all three sides. I had issues with re-formatting the video and keep recording, the device was asking to format the SD card manually. I contacted the seller and they send me a brand new device. Know everything works very well. Very easy to install. Over all great product.”

Customer Review: “This is a very good camera but the rear mounted solo camera records on AVI format. The in cab and forward facing cameras have great resolution.”

Customer Review: “This is an amazing little product! It arrived quickly, and was easy to set up. It came with an included memory card, and both a front and a back camera.It was easy to install. The video and photos are very clear. The camera mount itself makes it even easier to use because you can position the camera easily in any needed direction.I did turn the camera to see if I could turn it to catch both the driver, and the driver’s side window. It does!All the settings are clear to understand when you scroll through them. The manual is also very well written, so you don’t get confused.It does catch quite a lot of the view in front of the vehicle as well as the back. I did upload a photo of the front view.It is well made, not cheap plastic while also not being overly bulky or heavy. It’s definitely not a distraction while driving.It does have a microphone that turns on automatically, so if you use that feature let your passengers know. You also have the option to shut off the microphone if you choose not to use that feature.I have recommended this already to several friends.”

Customer Review: “These cameras are great quality and price, both front and rear. The small size makes them much more discreet. They do their job, recording evidence in case of an incident. The image is clear and sharp, which is important because my car is an SUV. It gives me peace of mind and a lot of security now. Reversing was almost always difficult for me. They’re easy to install, and everything comes in the right package. I’m very satisfied.”

Customer Review: “This little dash cam has been a fantastic addition to my car. The video quality is seriously sharp, making license plates and street signs clear both day and night. I was surprised by how easy it was to set up, and the included 32GB card meant it was ready to go right out of the box. The peace of mind is the best part—knowing it’s automatically recording while I drive and even watching the car when I’m parked. The rear camera is a bit fiddly to route, but once it’s in place, having that complete front and back coverage is invaluable. For the price, it feels like a steal and works exactly as advertised.”

Customer Review: “This dash cam is an excellent value for the capabilities it provides. The front camera records in sharp 2.5K, while the rear records in 1080P, resulting in clear footage during the day and unexpectedly good quality at night. The wide-angle coverage minimizes blind spots. Setup was simple, and the provided 32GB card is convenient because it can be used immediately away.The only minor issue is that the 2″ screen feels a little small. However, I consider this is minor concerns as compared to the overall reliability and pricing point. An excellent choice for anyone seeking for a tiny, twin dash cam with reliable performance.”

Customer Review: “The dash cam was very easy to install and fit perfectly in my Toyota 4Runner. The camera looks very sleek and the quality of the camera feels very good. Installation was quick and easy. The touchscreen is very responsive and fairly easy to navigate. The 4k video quality is very good and has a great field of view of the front and rear of the car. What’s also a big plus is that it comes already equipped with a 64gb micro SD card so it’s ready to use right out of the box. I’m really happy with this dash cam so far that I’m buying another for my Toyota Tacoma.”

Customer Review: “I just received this dash cam today and I’m already blown away by the quality. Right out of the box it feels incredibly rugged and well-built — not cheap or flimsy at all. You can tell it’s made to last and handle daily use without any issues.The screen is very responsive and smooth, which makes navigating the menus quick and easy. Setup was straightforward, and everything feels intuitive and well-designed.One of the biggest bonuses was that it came pre-installed with a 64GB microSD card. That was such a great surprise — no extra purchases needed, and I could start using it immediately. It’s clear the company thought about convenience.Overall, this dash cam feels premium, reliable, and ready to go right away. If first impressions are anything to go by, this is an excellent buy. Highly recommend!”

Customer Review: “Very good dash camera. The 4K video quality is clear and sharp, both during the day and at night. Installation was easy and the camera works perfectly. It’s a great device for safety and recording everything while driving. I highly recommend it.”

Customer Review: “I love this dash cam! I bought one in 2024 and gave it to my mom when we both got new cars. I tried others dash cams and all were returned for various reasons and finally I said “what was I thinking?? This one was great!” (Doesn’t have touchscreen or voice control but honestly not really missing much with those)Installation: very easy to install by yourself. You do not need to go to a shop or have a lot of car knowledge or experience. If you have a friend to help, all the better so you can have them hold the front camera as you place the rear 😊. Super fast to install.Now, a few things that make the difference between this dash cam and others:*3 channels with loop recoding donations up to 5 minutes. All cameras record simultaneously (unless you turn the inside off then only back and front) and can do single view or split screen. If you don’t want the inside camera on you can go into the settings and turn it off. Love the inside camera when I have my friends kids in the car or my nephews so I can watch them and also a deterrent to them acting up knowing they are on camera*all 3 cameras are super clear!! Even if you are driving into the rising or setting Sun, it won’t mess up the recording. Back cam is great for additional backup camera as well as seeing who is riding your bumper. Inside is great if you have kids or want to record a fun trip with friends or an important conversation (those who know know what I mean)*Records speed as well as date and time stamp: great if you need that to help you out of a ticket. Also has built-in GPS. All this records without it blocking the screen with numbers and symbols (wifi symbol, mic, memory card, speed, time…) unless you watch the recording and it is a small text on the bottom. I have tried others where it doesn’t go away, numbers and symbols an over the screen and you can’t see squat.*Screensaver: this just turns the screen off after the set amount of time. You can’t change it in the settings or if you don’t want the screen turning off during the day but do at night you can just touch the power button on the side (don’t hold it) and the screen turns off but cameras stay on. I don’t drive too much at night but when I do it is a great feature so you don’t have additional light interference while driving. Others I have tried did not have that feature. Had to go into settings each time to change it.*G-Sensor: not too sensitive like a lot of others (hit a pebble and it locks the even like an accident). The sensitivity can be adjusted in the settings, I keep mine on low so it doesn’t go off when I go over bumps. Most of us don’t live on pristine roads and having a sensor that goes off from railroad tracks to manhole covers to a dip in the road…turning it off is pointless, you want this feature if you get into an accident so it won’t be recorded over if the memory card runs out of space.* IR and nighttime: this isn’t the worlds best BUT unless you want to spend $300-$500 it won’t be. It is really good! At night I can get a great view of what is behind me, not a lot of glare, also great for an additional backup camera at night and in bad weather. Inside camera at night works really well. I originally had it in a 3 row Pilot and could see into the 3rd row without an issue at all.* Parking safety: starts recording if someone leans on your car, taps it or breaks in (don’t use that bc you need another part to have that work but great to have the option of you are worried about where you are leaving your car)*Volume: can turn the mic off so you aren’t recording all conversations (or your VERY off key singing haha)The App: I don’t really use it bc my phone connects to my car via Bluetooth and having to switch back and forth and then I don’t have my hands free capabilities. It does help when installing the cameras to make sure the positions are exactly where you want them before sticking them on the glass. It is also nice to have so you can download videos from the camera right to the app so they don’t get recorded over and you don’t have to take the card out. And you have them stored if you ever need them for other reasons say court for tickets or accident reports.Seriously, I have recommended this camera to a lot of friends and other family members. I would not have put one in my mother’s car if I didn’t trust this camera!!!”

Customer Review: “This dash cam is a steal for the price. The recording is crisp and clear, the buttons are clearly labeled and easy to use, and the suction cup holds well on the mirror. This is easy to install and provides front, rear, and cabin recording all in one. I love it and is necessary in today’s world with all the crazy drivers out there.”

Customer Review: “This dash cam is a total game-changer for my peace of mind on the road! The 2.5K front resolution is incredibly sharp, making it easy to read license plates, while the interior and rear cameras provide full 360-degree coverage. Setting it up was simple, and the built-in WiFi makes it fast to grab footage on my phone without messing with the SD card. The night vision is surprisingly clear in the cabin, and having the 64GB card included meant I could use it right out of the box. It feels reliable and high-quality, giving me total confidence while driving or parked. This is easily the best investment I’ve made for my car!”
