Our take on the Nextbase 522GW Quad HD Dash Cam

The Nextbase 522GW is a windshield-mounted dash cam with a 3-inch touchscreen, built-in GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It records 1440p Quad HD at 30fps or 1080p at 60fps through an F1.3 lens, and its polarizing filter cuts windshield glare. It is aimed at drivers who want easy phone sharing and optional rear-camera coverage. Against cheaper 1080p cams it adds a sharper sensor, GPS logging and an emergency SOS feature; against 4K rivals it trades some detail for smoother 60fps footage and simpler controls.
