Should I Buy?

While That the Yi Action Camera proved to be very popular because it was an excellent bang for the dollar, we do not believe the Yi Dash Camera will attain the same success. The movie quality is fantastic for the price especially the nighttime quality. No matter how the rectangular form factor and gold or silver colour isn't discreet. Additionally given the Novatek processor, we don't feel this camera is going to have the very same grassroots hacking attempt which proved to be quite popular with all the action camera. Some early reports of focus problems are a concern along with the rickety mount is a disappointment.

Overall, This camera will likely sell well in China and to Yi fans. If you don't care about how unobtrusive your dash camera is, take a look at this camera given the good video quality. If the form factor matters to you, search for a smaller camera or wedge shaped camera. See what other owners of the camera have to say on our Yi Dash Cam forum.
