    Worse then JUNK

    5 years ago
    As a former Canadian Tire employee of 31 years. I am ashamed that we sell a very poor quality dash cam. I was told that the Papago dash cams were of the highest quality on the market. I purchase 2 of them for myself and my wife vehicles. I refer the Papago 550 to many customers as been an awesome dash cam. With the 160 degrees super wide view angle and the large 2.7 inch display and many other great features. For the first couple month both work fine then all of sudden I would have to reset the time and date over and over again on both the cams. I took both back to Canadian Tire and got them exchange for 2 new ones under warranty. But these 2 did the same after same again after couple weeks. I could not get a full refund on both of these cams as it was past 30 days. I wish I spent the extra money and got a Garmin 56 instead. After some research on this model there is an inherent problem with the internal battery to retain the memory. Its not even a battery at all, and it appears to be a cheap foil/paper capacitor "sealed" in foil; the electrolyte evaporates and the capacitor fails. Change the design to a replaceable coin battery. Now I am on my 3rd pair and both are crapping out, Memory issues, freezing issues. Cant wait till Red Thursday and get a real dash cam.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    POOR QUALITY-DO NOT BUY

    5 years ago
    Bought this camera and initially liked it. Easy to install and lots of features, but lasted only a handful of months. I had to use it one day when someone hit my car in the early morning. The video quality was horrible. Although it showed the collision, it could not make out the license plate even at close range. About a week later while driving the memory card just popped out and would not go back into the appropriate slot. DO NOT WASTE your money. Now I am out over a hundred dollars and am past the return/ warranty period.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Having to reset the date and time every time it starts is getting old!

    5 years ago
    At first it was a great little camera to use in my truck and motorhome. But like everything else, it got tiresome taking it in and out of the vehicle in fears of someone breaking in to steal it when parked overnight. Now, after a year, every time I start my car (the camera is hooked up to a switched power source to avoid being on all the time), it goes to the set-up menu for time and date - EVERY TIME! I gave up, put it back in the box and into the closet. Is there a way to change the internal battery to avoid this?

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Very Poor Video quality

    5 years ago
    As the title says the video quality is very poor no matter what resolution setting the camera is set to. Not at all comparable to what is shown in the demo video. The MicroSD card that comes with it is 8gb even though the poorly written manual recommends a 64gb. Trying to insert/extract the card is another challenge. Any other device I have is a simple push of the finger to insert remove the card but this device is very difficult. I ended up having to use a small flat bladed screwdriver as it was the only way to insert the card fully. Do not recommend this device.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    WORKS LIKE IT SAYS

    6 years ago
    I just bought this. Have been using it for a week now and it does what it says it does. the safety features are hit and miss. When I pull up to a stop sign it sometimes signals me to stop. Other times it doesn't. Night time is a little harder to see but it doesn't have night vision anyhow. Still the pictures in it highest rate is really good. I live in Quesnel B.C. if anyone is looking to buy this unit. I like it.

    Yes, I recommend this product.
