WOLFBOX Mirror Dash Cam Front Rear Camera 12″ Full HD Touch Screen 1296P Rear View Recording Dual Car Backup Super Night Parking Assistance GPS Wide Angle 32GB TF Card
loved this camera from the start easy to fit very good night vision but after only 6 months the rear camera has packed up but yeah I’m considering just to use now as front camera only anyway still gets 5 stars !
I have been using this in a motorhome for the last 3 years, it is exceptionally good and especially at night. It has made driving in Europe so much easier. Thoroughly recommend.
Although initially I though the device is quite bulky, after installation and setup I quickly changed my mind. I had doubts that the device will ‘fit’ my mirror but once again I was wrong. Just after few seconds of moving it around it fit perfectly and I was stunned how securely it holds.
Installation: one important thing to remember is that the camera is on one side of the device as such the device itself will slide more to one of the sides of your mirror. Initially I thought that this will bring the ‘picture’ too close to my face, but actually it feels very natural and comfortable.
Video: I have different 4k camera in another vehicle and after few days of driving and comparing the quality it is hard distinguish the difference. Needless to say, I spent a lot of time doing my research before the purchase, so when this one landed on my lap I was surprised with this shot in the dark.
Box: the box comes with a number of gadgets that you can but don’t have to use.
1) Beside the camera itself and the mounts, you can use the GPS device. This is not compulsory, but if you want the GPS/speedometer info, it’s a must. The add on is very small, consequently you can conveniently install it behind the mirror. From driver’s perspective you won’t see it at all and it won’t impact your vision.
2) The other device is the reverse camera that captures picture in the industry standard (for reverse cameras) of 1080p. Initially I thought that the 140 angle on reverse camera (170 front) is insufficient but after driving a few days, I can confirm it’s perfect. After reviewing videos I have no problems reading number plates, so in the case of unfortunate accident, you can stay assured, the evidence will be there.
3) Cloth, nice bonus for cleaning the camera or device itself
4) Plastic wedge to feed and hide the cable during installation
5) Few cable holders (there are doing just fine during hot day). Also they can be used multiple times so if you decide to swap the cable (during hardwire installation) this can be done easily. Before installing one or few make sure you are confident if your choice as they hold very well.
6) Power adapter
7) Instructions
Build quality: The device feels nice in hand. You get the premium feeling and after opening the box, I almost felt like it’s Christmas.
Pros: Material, Quality, Ease of installation
Cons: this one is difficult. NONE in short, but if I was to try and find one thing I don’t like, well… not for me but the reverse camera cannot be mounted directly on the window. I know there are people who would prefer do it. Consequently its a matter of preference I guess. Would be nice to have an option to chose which reverse camera option you prefer… but I’m nitpicking now.
5.0 out of 5 stars Useful and can be used as reverse parking camera
The Wolfbox G840s is a really great Dash Cam, with both front and rear cameras. The build quality of the item is excellent and the clarity of the camera is very good. The ultra wide angle lens of the front facing camera lets you capture all the area of the road in front of you and you can choose the length of each video you record between 1 and 3 minutes which makes them easy to find when scrolling back through them.
The Dash Cam gives you a 12″ mirror which clips over you existing car mirror and the camera angle is adjustable so that you can get the perfect view angle. Easy to install, comes complete with a plastic “Crowbar” to enable you conceal cables behind vehicle lining. The rear facing camera can be installed inside the car or outside (Outside is recommended) and can also be connected to the reversing light which will bring on the Das Cam with reversing view to assist parking if required
After sales service is also excellent, I had a couple of questions which I asked by email and I got a response with the answers within 24 hours.
I would certainly recommend Wolfbox Dash Cam’s, they are very well made. and the after sales team were extremely helpful.
Really pleased with the quality and and more than enough cable to play with ive got a transit van and still had loads of cable left easy and simple to use best one out there
5.0 out of 5 stars Best dashcam/ reversing camera on the marke
I love the dashcam I bought for my car. It has a fantastic panoramic view that shows both the front and rear clearly. It’s especially helpful when I have passengers in the backseat blocking my rearview mirror.
However, there are two concerns:
1. The 24-hour recording feature is difficult to install if you’re not familiar with mechanics, and there’s an additional cost for the wolfbox hardwire.
2. After using it for about two weeks, I noticed that the auto-recording sometimes stops and the dashcam turns off and reboots on its own. The manufacturer should address this issue.
This thing is just something you need as a driver. I had a normal dashcam until someone bumped the back of my car. After that, my head kept telling me I need a rear view camera and this is amazing.
You can split the screen to show front and back, move the camera screen up and down to make parking easier when reversing and the extra GPS box shows your speed, so it’s your insurance if someone says you were speeding if you get a knock.
Highly recommended. Ignore the price, it’s worth it!
Spot on. ignore the dangling cables. Installation in progress. Picture is crisp. Easy to install. Just a tad smaller than the original mirror. A little bit annoying but you get use to it. I love it. Lets see how it goes in a few months
Just had fitted today. Love it brilliant quality camera and mirror . Front dash and rear , gps too with speed monitor and direction of travel. Can adjust view of camera by going up and down on mirror . Only 1 issue thought reverse lines where dynamic.
Has high-quality cameras for both front and back of vehicle. The rear camera, power cable and GPS sensor make three wires, so be prepared to pull your car apart a bit if you want them out of the way.
The clear, panoramic view fed to your mirror from the rear camera lets you see so much more than a traditional rear-view mirror. Even if turn off the feed you still get a nice big mirror with front and rear recordings going on in the background.
If you’re willing to spend an evening getting it all set up and working, you’ll come away with a really useful and fun gadget for your vehicle.
After more than a year of use, I damaged my rear camera. The support team were really great about it and sent me a replacement right away. I’m very pleased with purchase and how well I’ve been looked after by the company.
It works sound. However, the screws are too small to fit the rear cam. My friends have also found such problems. We have to use the screws bought by ourselves to fit it. My friends had already raised such problem to the Seller several months ago but no improvement yet.
4.0 out of 5 stars The screws are too small to fit the rear cam
The quality of this camera is simply awesome!
It’s construction with quality parts, clarity of picture front and rear is superb.
I’ve had many cameras over the years and this is the best yet .
The user interface / touch screen is a pleasure to use and straightforward.
Install was easy – I had some technical questions and response was swift and really helpful .
If you’re after a quality camera this is the one !!
And I’m not associated, paid by the company in any form.just a genuine happy customer leaving a review when it simply deserves one !
The WOLFBOX G840S rear view mirror camera is seriously cool. It’s got a super sharp 4K UHD front camera and a crystal clear 1080p rear camera. The design is sleek and modern, with a curved screen that’s easy on the eyes. The 12” screen is bigger than most, giving you a wide view with hardly any blind spots. The build quality is top-notch and it comes in a well-packed box, so it arrives in tip-top shape. The screen is super clear, and the enhanced night vision is a real game-changer, making driving in any light a breeze. I haven’t installed it yet, but I’m planning to do that soon. I’ll be sure to update this review once I’ve had a chance to test it out properly.
5.0 out of 5 stars WOLFBOX G840S rear view mirror camera is seriously cool
Lovely camera and screen to use as a rear view mirror has given me so much confidence in seeing out the back of my van. The software to review the footage is not the best. I contacted the manufacturer who say they are reviewing the software so hopefully that will improve
Fitted this camera myself after watching a few YouTube videos pretty straight forward on the zafiraB model.
Cables were just long enough for the front camera to do a proper install, left top window, down side window along and down side of door opening through glove compartment,and through centre console out to the cig lighter.
Took around 30 mins.
Camera itself if super easy to use touch screen, and can be turned off to just use as a normal rear view mirror if you don’t want the screens on.
Rear view mirror was also very easy to fit taking less time at 20 mins.
Again good camera image quality.
And can have both screen side by side or rear or front can be selected with a swipe of the screen its that easy.
I would recommend these to any of my friends and family so also a reader of this review you won’t be dissapointed.

When I purchased this product the instructions were not in English. I tried to contact WOLFBOX on several occasions but had no joy.
Finally after about three weeks of trying I managed to get a response.
I was told that their computer system was not working! This was after three weeks! I was about to send the product back.
However, glad I didn’t!
As it happens you don’t really need instructions everything is self explanatory on screen, apart from attaching the wire for the reversing lines.
I am in co contact with the company now and they text me occasionally to see if I’m happy with the product.
The product! It’s amazing!! I tried to send a vid but can’t attach it, it must be too long.
The quality and clarity of the product is better than expected. I fitted this to a T2 bay camper van and mounted the rear view camera on the roof. The beauty of this is I can stack in the back of the van and don’t need the rear window to see out of.
Both cameras, front and back give a wide view angle and when I see the vehicle behind disappear from view, I can look to my right and it’s visible from the side window. It was a bit of a fiddle hiding the wires but they do enclose a tool to assist.
I can’t fault the product, it does everything you, I, want it to.
I do hope it stands the test of time but feel sure if it doesn’t I will get help from the company.
Sorry I can’t attach the vid, you will have to take my word, it was good.
I purchased this Wolfbox camera nearly 2 years ago now. Unfortunately I recently had a problem where we were losing the picture from the rear camera. There was clearly a loose connection somewhere.
I figured I would purchase a new rear camera and a new rear camera cable but didn’t know how I can get hold of these separately (you can via their website). I emailed their customer service address to find out this information and amazingly a rep named Mia said she would sort the parts and send them to me free of charge. I was amazed in all honesty, not only had they agreed to sort the problem for me but it would cost me nothing. A few days later I received the parts and it’s running perfectly again.
It’s not often, particularly these days, you get companies that are happy to help and look after old customers. It’s usually a case of gaining new customers and making as much money from the old ones as possible. But I can confirm that Wolfbox are not like that. Fantastic customer service. No robot response and no refusing to take responsibility; just good old fashioned, helpful and friendly customer service. A*
Really well made, and the technology works very effectively. The design of the sockets on the top of the mirror is fairly poor though, the power, GPS and rear camera cables overlap and are routed in unusual directions. Apart from that, the kit itself its high quality and the the hardwire kit is also worth buying.
Front camera/mirror easy to fit, good pic, still good picture at night when lights on etc.
Its discrete as well; passer’s bye will be looking for a dash cam elsewhere on the windscreen.
Picture quality on the mirror is good. When screen off, mirror image good.
Rear camera I fitted inside, view is still good, pic by night would be poor, requiring lights to be really useful. Good by day. One can connect the spare wire provided to the reversing light 12V supply, then when one selects reverse in the car, camera is activated, and guidance lines can be setup to appear to guide you reversing.
Handy unit that you are covered front and rear with the one unit.
You will need to buy the external mini blade fuse cable for12V/GND permanent connection, so as not to be using the cigarette 12V socket. A must.
Comes with G shock setting of Low/Medium/High (to activate record in case of a tip when not in the car). Medium is still to sensitive for some Irish roads with bumps and potholes etc while driving.
Screen is easy enough to follow the software/setup. Manual is good, with pictorials.
I haven’t plugged in the GPS, so cant comment on it.
Bought via Amazon. I would suggest the documentation to describe and sell it could do with reworking to do its functionality more justice, its poor in my view for the options this system has.
I got this dashcam the other day and I wanted to see how it works a bit, before posting any reviews of it as I had some bad experience with a dashcam from a different brand.
Before I start, I must say, the full star rating is a bad idea, it should be on a 0.5 stars basis, up to 5 full stars.
Because the camera on this model doesn,t extend (it,s a fix camera model) I would have given it 4.5 stars. If you have a slightly bigger rearview mirror, it would be tricky->hard to attach thr dashcam on it.
It,s a simple enough instalation process, and I really like that Wolfbox thought of the strugle with hiding all the wires and they gave the necesarry tool. I got 2 pairs of straps, a “small” one and a slightly bigger one.
Wolfbox team, well done and thank you from all of us that bought your product.
In the first picture it,s shown also the speed. I don,t know how to do that. Maybe you need to install also the GPS module, which I confess I didn,t because of laziness
The charging tip is kind of big (I couldn,t hide it behind the mirror plastic on top of the windshield in my 2012 Scenic), and because it,s a RH drive car, the “tip” should have been on the other side of the cable for more comfort, but you don,t have that big a problem because of that.
All in all a good product so far.
I will post again in a couple of months with some other feedback (if I won,t forget )
I bought this as a Christmas gift, and my partner was over the moon with it. It has front and rear camera’s which works well for reversing as well.
The screen can be either front, back or a split of both, and it is fantastic quality in comparison to other Dash cam screens I’ve seen.
The after sales team at Wolfbox are brilliant and would highly recommend this product. I did have a problem with the GPS & a replacement was sent within 2 days. Excellent service
I bought this camera because I wanted something that was going to catch any damage following a purchase of a new car! The camera quality is amazing, you can see the front and the back so clearly, it picks up number plates and surrounds and on clear dry days it even picks up a clear image of the driver behind you! However the absolute winner that you get from this purchase is the customer service, the WOLFBOX customer service is like anything I have ever received from a company. I am abit slow with technology so have needed to use their services on a few occasions with understanding each feature and the best way to use the device, no question is a stupid question to WOLFBOX! They are so quick to reply, they answer every point in an email in details and so clearly. The agents are friendly and attentive and make sure your query is answered as clear as you need it to be. Could not recommend enough!
For the price it would be mad not to get one for your peace of mind. Having had many Dash Cams in the past I now wish I had found this earlier.
The Dash Cam has a fantastic 2.5k (1440p) front fully adjustable front camera and a 1080p rear camera. The main unit fitted comfortably over the existing rear view mirror and looks and feels a premium bit of kit. Both cameras have advanced WDR/HDR technology. This allows clear crisp recorded images beyond what was expected and I was very impressed more so at night. It took about 30mins to fit with what was in the box. However this might vary on how you route the cables etc. where you place the rear cam ect. I fitted the rear camera outwith the car it’s fully waterproof and gives great results. I also opted for an additional hardwire kit that enables you to set the parking mode. There were plenty of tips how to do this on YOUTUBE always a good idea to seek help if in doubt. The parking mode is only available when a hardwire kit is fitted and worth it as all the wires are hidden and the additional benefit of 24/7 cover and the hardwire kit won’t drain your battery as it’s intelligent Make-up does not allow. When the car was started I was surprised just how quickly it booted up and started recording, the rear cam stays on and with a swipe either way you can view the front. I found with certain swipes at points you can change the brightness easily or you can switch off to have just the mirror effect cam itself. All these settings can be adjusted in the settings menu. on its own is very clear and non dazzling. With the GPS module fitted it shows direction and speed. I also downloaded the Windows app. Wolfbox Player where on playback will allow you to view the recordings and shows a map of your location in accordance to the video. Playback is even clearer on the PC. There are plenty of settings etc that might be distracting as it is pretty much a fully packed Dash Cam that does a fantastic job. I advise playing with it on your drive and get familiar whilst stationary. Once comfortable with your settings you can relax on your journey knowing that the Dash Cam is working in the background. The only thing I was going to change was to fit a 128GB SD card however you can lock videos at by clicking the screen and also go in and if you find a video you can change to lock.
I was bit disappointed as the camera quality is not good as its advertised and its average. The overall installation was simple i would say. I would recommend to install the rear camera outside and above the number plate rather than inside at rear side.
Very good video quality, better than most dashcams. 2 in 1 purpose. Mirror and smart dashcam. Easy to fit; securely mounts onto the original car mirror, extra bands incase needed. Had a good experience, although the memory card is a pain to get back in if taken out. Overall great dashcam, would highly recommend if you’re looking for a decent dashcam.
Fitting is very simple even getting the reverse gear to engage the camera was easy. Cable provided wasn’t long enough for my van so after contacting them they sent me a longer cable. Keep up the great work
Daytime is great camera quality, not so good at night when cars are behind you with lights on as get horrible glares ,front camera is good night and day and the reversing camera is spot on !!
Easy to use when set up, clear picture, excellent reversing camera with guild lines if required. Had a professional to install as would not attempt to do this myself, very happy with outcome.
I have a Landrover defender and wanted an easy install for a rear view camera this is brilliant for the price. Pretty easy to install ( on a defender ) just run the cable and connect to power. Very happy
2 years ago, I bought 2 Wolfbox G840s on the recommendation of a friend, to have the dash cam and the rear view, is such a good idea.
I found them easy to install, I was using the long rear view camera extensions as i was installing them into vans.
it makes reversing them so easy.
I then had a rear view mirrors in the vans, what a luxury.
the pictures are bright and clear even at night.
excellent after sales, one of the cameras recently stopped working properly, so I contacted Wolfbox, explained the problem, without fuss or grief, I was quickly supplied with a replacement camera.
I give the system and the staff at wolfbox an easy 10 out of 10.
I would highly recommend the wolfbox system.
great work, keep it up.
I had the camera fitted in my car at the beginning of 2022, to be used as a replacement for the rearview mirror. It is constantly on. Initially, it was fitted externally above the rear number plate, which is where it appears in most of the promotional videos. There were two main issues with that location, the first being that in heavy rain, the camera became almost unusable due to the amount of spray that collected on the lens. The second problem was that when vehicles were quite close behind at night, the headlights reduced the image to a blur of bright light, and in wet conditions, the image was just a mess. I then had the camera installed inside the car within the swept region of the rear wipe, as high in the rear screen as possible. It is much better in that location, as heavy rain is not a problem and headlight glare has reduced dramatically. The greatest advantage of the camera is that it removes blind spots completely. When a vehicle is on either side of the car, I can still see the rear of it in the camera when I catch it in my peripheral vision. When carrying out reversing manoeuvres, in particular in supermarket carparks, it is superb, you see everything behind and to the side of you. In motorway driving it is excellent, there are no blind spots whatsoever. Where we live, at certain points on the motorway, vehicles can join from the left and the right, so the elimination of blind spots is a huge benefit. The picture quality is excellent and in low light conditions, the image is so much clearer than with a conventional mirror. In very bright sunlight, you will catch sight of yourself in the mirror, but simply tilting it slightly removes that problem. The biggest drawback, and it takes a while to become accustomed to it, is that vehicles following at a distance greater than three hundred metres, are almost indiscernible. I find myself checking my door mirrors more often in dual-carriageway and motorway driving, due to lack of range of the camera. However, the camera can be switched off simply by pressing the power button, and the mirror becomes conventional. The menus can all be accessed on the mirror itself, with camera angle and screen brightness adjustable with a finger swipe, as is the choice of front or rear camera displayed. I also installed the GPS and the car’s speed and compass direction is displayed in the bottom left-hand corner of the mirror. However, for some reason the car’s speed is not displayed on the videos when they are played on the computer. I have searched the menus but cannot have speed displayed. The only other issue I have with it is the cabling connection points which are on the top of the camera. In my car it means that I cannot tilt the camera upwards as far as I would like when it is being used conventionally because the cable connectors come up against the factory fitted upper plastic body of the original mirror. If the cable connectors were on the rear of the camera it would resolve that issue. It would also improve the aesthetics as the cables would all be hidden behind the mirror itself. I have now had the mirror installed for about six months and I’m very pleased with it. If Wolfbox could improve the range of the camera to allow the image to be closer to ‘true’, that would be a huge improvement. I understand the issue with the wide angle lens but it probably isn’t insurmountable. My overall rating is four stars although I have given five stars for each of the separate elements. The camera quality is very good, picture quality is excellent, and the auto electrician took just over an hour to install it. Because of the location of the cable connections, and the limitations of the camera when viewing distant objects, I gave an overall rating of four, but I would have chosen 4.5 if that had been available. For vehicles which have no rear windows, or HGV’s, this camera would be an excellent addition, even with the issues described earlier. For busy motorway driving in any vehicle, the mirror is excellent.
Straight out the box the item impressed me, the screen is large and very very clear!!!! You can easily see front, back or both at tbe same time (little bit odd that) it’s easy to set up and all your setting options are easy to navigate. I would say the G shock options are waaaayyyyy too sensitive , maybe it’s how it’s mounted in my van or something but even on its lowest settings it kept going off.
I did encounter a problem with my unit after about 8 months. Wolfbox customer support were quick to reply to messages and offer solutions, when that didn’t work they sent out a hardwire kit FOC, unfortunately the problem persisted so when I contacted them a month after my warranty had ran out I wasn’t expecting much help. But they sent a new camera out straight away as it had been an ongoing problem, even checked in with me a month after to make sure everything was ok.
Best customer service ever, a real breath of fresh air in todays climate. a brilliant product too.
Simple to install with easy to follow instructions. Siting of rear camera not an issue as you can adjust reversing lines on the screen – how cool is that? Host of options to ensure practical use. I have a pickup truck with negligible rear view – this is a must for parking peace of mind. The video logging front & rear is a bonus but the image quality live/recorded is really amazing. It’s so impressive I’m going to get another for my partner’s vehicle. I had an issue several weeks after installing and emailed which produced an immediate response with appropriate support, issue resolved. I honestly can’t recommend this highly enough quite simply it’s a great piece of kit which continues to exceed expectations.
This is an expensive dashcam,but my goodness well worth the money.l had.it fitted by an auto electrician and it is amazing.
Picture quality and field of vision are superb
I love the way it attachs over the mirror so it looks like the original mirror,no cheap looking thing stuck to the windscreen.
Excellent build quality and plenty of wiring provided.
It has exceeded my expectations and I can’t reccommend it highly enough
loved this camera from the start easy to fit very good night vision but after only 6 months the rear camera has packed up but yeah I’m considering just to use now as front camera only anyway still gets 5 stars !

Really pleased with the quality and and more than enough cable to play with ive got a transit van and still had loads of cable left easy and simple to use best one out there
Fitted very easying with help from oline tutorials.
Front & rear camera picture is excellent. Rear camera cable nice and long too (reached the back of a SWB ford transit custom).
Would advise purchasing the retrofit mirror bracket if you can remove your interior mirror, much nicer look than the rubber straps provided.
I love the dashcam I bought for my car. It has a fantastic panoramic view that shows both the front and rear clearly. It’s especially helpful when I have passengers in the backseat blocking my rearview mirror.

Cables were just long enough for the front camera to do a proper install, left top window, down side window along and down side of door opening through glove compartment,and through centre console out to the cig lighter.
Took around 30 mins.
Camera itself if super easy to use touch screen, and can be turned off to just use as a normal rear view mirror if you don’t want the screens on.
Rear view mirror was also very easy to fit taking less time at 20 mins.
Again good camera image quality.
And can have both screen side by side or rear or front can be selected with a swipe of the screen its that easy.
I would recommend these to any of my friends and family so also a reader of this review you won’t be dissapointed.

Finally after about three weeks of trying I managed to get a response.
I was told that their computer system was not working! This was after three weeks! I was about to send the product back.
However, glad I didn’t!
As it happens you don’t really need instructions everything is self explanatory on screen, apart from attaching the wire for the reversing lines.
I am in co contact with the company now and they text me occasionally to see if I’m happy with the product.
The product! It’s amazing!! I tried to send a vid but can’t attach it, it must be too long.
The quality and clarity of the product is better than expected. I fitted this to a T2 bay camper van and mounted the rear view camera on the roof. The beauty of this is I can stack in the back of the van and don’t need the rear window to see out of.
Both cameras, front and back give a wide view angle and when I see the vehicle behind disappear from view, I can look to my right and it’s visible from the side window. It was a bit of a fiddle hiding the wires but they do enclose a tool to assist.
I can’t fault the product, it does everything you, I, want it to.
I do hope it stands the test of time but feel sure if it doesn’t I will get help from the company.
Sorry I can’t attach the vid, you will have to take my word, it was good.
I figured I would purchase a new rear camera and a new rear camera cable but didn’t know how I can get hold of these separately (you can via their website). I emailed their customer service address to find out this information and amazingly a rep named Mia said she would sort the parts and send them to me free of charge. I was amazed in all honesty, not only had they agreed to sort the problem for me but it would cost me nothing. A few days later I received the parts and it’s running perfectly again.
It’s not often, particularly these days, you get companies that are happy to help and look after old customers. It’s usually a case of gaining new customers and making as much money from the old ones as possible. But I can confirm that Wolfbox are not like that. Fantastic customer service. No robot response and no refusing to take responsibility; just good old fashioned, helpful and friendly customer service. A*
Ohh and the product is fantastic too
Really well made, and the technology works very effectively. The design of the sockets on the top of the mirror is fairly poor though, the power, GPS and rear camera cables overlap and are routed in unusual directions. Apart from that, the kit itself its high quality and the the hardwire kit is also worth buying.
Its discrete as well; passer’s bye will be looking for a dash cam elsewhere on the windscreen.
Picture quality on the mirror is good. When screen off, mirror image good.
Rear camera I fitted inside, view is still good, pic by night would be poor, requiring lights to be really useful. Good by day. One can connect the spare wire provided to the reversing light 12V supply, then when one selects reverse in the car, camera is activated, and guidance lines can be setup to appear to guide you reversing.
Handy unit that you are covered front and rear with the one unit.
You will need to buy the external mini blade fuse cable for12V/GND permanent connection, so as not to be using the cigarette 12V socket. A must.
Comes with G shock setting of Low/Medium/High (to activate record in case of a tip when not in the car). Medium is still to sensitive for some Irish roads with bumps and potholes etc while driving.
Screen is easy enough to follow the software/setup. Manual is good, with pictorials.
I haven’t plugged in the GPS, so cant comment on it.
Bought via Amazon. I would suggest the documentation to describe and sell it could do with reworking to do its functionality more justice, its poor in my view for the options this system has.
I got this dashcam the other day and I wanted to see how it works a bit, before posting any reviews of it as I had some bad experience with a dashcam from a different brand.
Before I start, I must say, the full star rating is a bad idea, it should be on a 0.5 stars basis, up to 5 full stars.
Because the camera on this model doesn,t extend (it,s a fix camera model) I would have given it 4.5 stars. If you have a slightly bigger rearview mirror, it would be tricky->hard to attach thr dashcam on it.
It,s a simple enough instalation process, and I really like that Wolfbox thought of the strugle with hiding all the wires and they gave the necesarry tool. I got 2 pairs of straps, a “small” one and a slightly bigger one.
Wolfbox team, well done and thank you from all of us that bought your product.
In the first picture it,s shown also the speed. I don,t know how to do that. Maybe you need to install also the GPS module, which I confess I didn,t because of laziness
The charging tip is kind of big (I couldn,t hide it behind the mirror plastic on top of the windshield in my 2012 Scenic), and because it,s a RH drive car, the “tip” should have been on the other side of the cable for more comfort, but you don,t have that big a problem because of that.
All in all a good product so far.
I will post again in a couple of months with some other feedback (if I won,t forget )
I bought this as a Christmas gift, and my partner was over the moon with it. It has front and rear camera’s which works well for reversing as well.
The screen can be either front, back or a split of both, and it is fantastic quality in comparison to other Dash cam screens I’ve seen.
Good value for such a great product, easy to install, also the after care /customer service was excelle
The after sales team at Wolfbox are brilliant and would highly recommend this product. I did have a problem with the GPS & a replacement was sent within 2 days. Excellent service
The Dash Cam has a fantastic 2.5k (1440p) front fully adjustable front camera and a 1080p rear camera. The main unit fitted comfortably over the existing rear view mirror and looks and feels a premium bit of kit. Both cameras have advanced WDR/HDR technology. This allows clear crisp recorded images beyond what was expected and I was very impressed more so at night. It took about 30mins to fit with what was in the box. However this might vary on how you route the cables etc. where you place the rear cam ect. I fitted the rear camera outwith the car it’s fully waterproof and gives great results. I also opted for an additional hardwire kit that enables you to set the parking mode. There were plenty of tips how to do this on YOUTUBE always a good idea to seek help if in doubt. The parking mode is only available when a hardwire kit is fitted and worth it as all the wires are hidden and the additional benefit of 24/7 cover and the hardwire kit won’t drain your battery as it’s intelligent Make-up does not allow. When the car was started I was surprised just how quickly it booted up and started recording, the rear cam stays on and with a swipe either way you can view the front. I found with certain swipes at points you can change the brightness easily or you can switch off to have just the mirror effect cam itself. All these settings can be adjusted in the settings menu. on its own is very clear and non dazzling. With the GPS module fitted it shows direction and speed. I also downloaded the Windows app. Wolfbox Player where on playback will allow you to view the recordings and shows a map of your location in accordance to the video. Playback is even clearer on the PC. There are plenty of settings etc that might be distracting as it is pretty much a fully packed Dash Cam that does a fantastic job. I advise playing with it on your drive and get familiar whilst stationary. Once comfortable with your settings you can relax on your journey knowing that the Dash Cam is working in the background. The only thing I was going to change was to fit a 128GB SD card however you can lock videos at by clicking the screen and also go in and if you find a video you can change to lock.
This mirror dash cam is brilliant. Videos can be played on the mirror no need to take out sd card and view on PC.
Nice and easy to use it, I’m using it for a van and I had to buy a proper holder, rear camera not the best but the front one have good quality!
I was bit disappointed as the camera quality is not good as its advertised and its average. The overall installation was simple i would say. I would recommend to install the rear camera outside and above the number plate rather than inside at rear side.
Very good video quality, better than most dashcams. 2 in 1 purpose. Mirror and smart dashcam. Easy to fit; securely mounts onto the original car mirror, extra bands incase needed. Had a good experience, although the memory card is a pain to get back in if taken out. Overall great dashcam, would highly recommend if you’re looking for a decent dashcam.
Fitting is very simple even getting the reverse gear to engage the camera was easy. Cable provided wasn’t long enough for my van so after contacting them they sent me a longer cable. Keep up the great work
Daytime is great camera quality, not so good at night when cars are behind you with lights on as get horrible glares ,front camera is good night and day and the reversing camera is spot on !!
Excellent camera. I thought it may have been a bit big but it isn’t.
Excellent picture, easy to use.
I purchased the fixing kit to have it hard wired rather than use a 12v connection. Wires fo through roof lining so no messy wire anywhere.
It was well packaged, great instructions. Excellent value.
Very Satisfied with the equipment and manufacturer and their aftersales service.
Easy to use when set up, clear picture, excellent reversing camera with guild lines if required. Had a professional to install as would not attempt to do this myself, very happy with outcome.
I have a Landrover defender and wanted an easy install for a rear view camera this is brilliant for the price. Pretty easy to install ( on a defender ) just run the cable and connect to power. Very happy
Great product and after sales, had a few questions before and after purchasing and they were very helpful.
Excellent product. Picture quality is superb. Still haven’t connected the parking sensor wire but I’m working on it. Well recommended.
I found them easy to install, I was using the long rear view camera extensions as i was installing them into vans.
it makes reversing them so easy.
I then had a rear view mirrors in the vans, what a luxury.
the pictures are bright and clear even at night.
excellent after sales, one of the cameras recently stopped working properly, so I contacted Wolfbox, explained the problem, without fuss or grief, I was quickly supplied with a replacement camera.
I give the system and the staff at wolfbox an easy 10 out of 10.
I would highly recommend the wolfbox system.
great work, keep it up.

Straight out the box the item impressed me, the screen is large and very very clear!!!! You can easily see front, back or both at tbe same time (little bit odd that) it’s easy to set up and all your setting options are easy to navigate. I would say the G shock options are waaaayyyyy too sensitive , maybe it’s how it’s mounted in my van or something but even on its lowest settings it kept going off.
I did encounter a problem with my unit after about 8 months. Wolfbox customer support were quick to reply to messages and offer solutions, when that didn’t work they sent out a hardwire kit FOC, unfortunately the problem persisted so when I contacted them a month after my warranty had ran out I wasn’t expecting much help. But they sent a new camera out straight away as it had been an ongoing problem, even checked in with me a month after to make sure everything was ok.
Best customer service ever, a real breath of fresh air in todays climate. a brilliant product too.
Simple to install with easy to follow instructions. Siting of rear camera not an issue as you can adjust reversing lines on the screen – how cool is that? Host of options to ensure practical use. I have a pickup truck with negligible rear view – this is a must for parking peace of mind. The video logging front & rear is a bonus but the image quality live/recorded is really amazing. It’s so impressive I’m going to get another for my partner’s vehicle. I had an issue several weeks after installing and emailed which produced an immediate response with appropriate support, issue resolved. I honestly can’t recommend this highly enough quite simply it’s a great piece of kit which continues to exceed expectations.
This is an expensive dashcam,but my goodness well worth the money.l had.it fitted by an auto electrician and it is amazing.
Picture quality and field of vision are superb
I love the way it attachs over the mirror so it looks like the original mirror,no cheap looking thing stuck to the windscreen.
Excellent build quality and plenty of wiring provided.
It has exceeded my expectations and I can’t reccommend it highly enough
