The Omni is equipped with voice control for added convenience. By giving simple voice commands, the camera performs the corresponding actions without turning your attention away from driving. In a more positive light, you can use the best dashcams to video spectacular landscapes when you're on holiday, create footage for vlogging and social media, and maybe even capture the odd meteor along the way.
Some owners have created custom Firmware for the Dash Cam Pro to improve video quality. You can learn more about the custom firmware here. User Manual OTA_9_FULL_DR002_v1.0.6.eu_20180817-1641_full.zip Chinese to English Firmware (Add English voice to Chinese cameras) The 70mai Dash Cam Pro has a wedge shaped design and is small at 87.5 x 53 x 19 mm. The camera comes with 2″ Screen, WiFi (with Android and iOS apps), G-sensor and optional GPS. The other thing that might slightly confuse people is that you connect your phone to the 70mai Omni via its own WiFi. Because I was parked outside my house, my phone initially refused to do so, because I'd set it up to auto-connect to my home WiFi, which was still in range.Act ahead with ADAS: it detects your surroundings and voice alerts to safety concerns. The M500 comes with expanded ADAS alerts include lane departure, forward collision, moving traffic, and pedestrian collision. Compatible with the RC06 rear camera*, the Pro Plus+ can achieve dual-channel** recording, providing all-round protection so you can drive with peace of mind. To summarise so far, the dashcam takes a little while to install and set up. But once you're up and running, what's it actually like to use?
The latter is optional: you can use voice control to control the camera instead if you prefer (and you'll certainly want to do so while driving). But you will need to keep the app on your phone, because the 70mai Omni does not record to removable media such as microSD card. It purely records to its own internal memory, so the only way you can access your footage is via your smartphone. You get 32GB, 64GB or 128GB of storage depending on how much you spend.
When you start your engine, the camera turns on automatically. But it doesn't start recording: I found I had to press a button on the side before it does that. This isn't difficult, of course, but it is one extra thing you have to remember at the start of every journey. You can then see what it's recording on the tiny 1.2 inch screen for a minute or so, before it switches to a generic smiley face, lest it distracts you from the task in hand. The 70mai has a nice cylindrical design and is small at 100 x 55 x 32 mm. It does not come with a screen and can be mounted discreetly in your vehicle. The form factor is very simple with one power button providing multiple functions (power on, power off, turn on WiFi, turn off Wifi, format SD card and restore default settings). Other commands include 'take photo' and 'take a selfie'. Personally, I don't need to record my unflattering driving face, but influencers will love this idea. And they'll also love being able to record sound along with video; you just say 'Record audio' to get this going. There's even a 'shoot vlog' command which makes the tripod head slowly rotate and record a 10-second video. Founded in 2016, 70mai is an industry-leading auto intelligence company, with specialization in dashboard cameras. To date, it has built a global market presence, selling 1.5 million dash cams in a single year to 100+ countries spanning Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia. Leveraging established expertise in car jump starters and other battery products, the company also expanded its reach into the clean energy market, debuting its first power station in 2021 to meet the growing demand for portable power on the move. The lens itself provides a 140-degree field of view, but the camera can rotate within 340 degrees on request, either via the app or voice control. In other words, you can say things 'shoot left', 'shoot right', 'shoot inside' and it will automatically spin around and do so. This has worked perfectly every time I tried it... well, as long as I say it quite loudly. Perhaps this device is calibrated to the stereotypically louder voices of North Americans, and my quiet British reserve has it stumped.
