70mai is back with another interesting take on dash cams: this time it's about a 360-degree rotating module, which can be great about recording everything happening on the road, but also - giving a sneak-peek about you driving and having fun.
In this review I'm sharing a lot of video footage samples and share my impressions about 70mai Omni.

i would want to see how it perform when it detect motion in the back of the vehicle, does it turn itself or not ?
License plate clarity in this review looks relatively WONDERFUL compared to most other dashcams.
i have the A800S and its just as good, id say it has bonus of an actual rear cam
Good man! Thanks
Great video as always Michael but do you have any suggestions or recommendations for a 4 camera (Front, rear, left & right) systems?
I cannot think of such one. Maybe you can use two dual-channel cams.
I love this cam .I really love the voice command option
Yeah, it's quite a good one!
Mihail, do you think the plastic twist off/onn mounting disc that allows day to day removal/replacement, will hold up well over months of repeated use? I wonder if a neodymium magnet would've been better, if actually feasible?
It is a good question. I believe it will be fine - the material feels good.
As for a magnet - not sure whether it will be perfect for such a rather heavy camera.
He's so happy it made me happy
Oh, lovely! Tech is supposed to be fun and to bring joy.
The most anticipated in the camera is its ability to guard the car 24/7, also a very important feature in it is lane tracking. I really look forward to it in my use, the developers have great respect for their work.
Really good features in here. I look forward to trying the 4G implementation.
You have to be an everyday driver to use Parking Guard effectively. Even with a separate and expensive dash cam battery, you only get
However if the thief chooses to also take the dashcam along with other valuables after the break in then what would anyone do ???? 😂😂😂
Nicely done video
Thank you
Great review!! But what current dash cam is recommended over this one?
There are plenty of good options, including this one. Check also Viofo, DDPai and Blackvue.
8:50 One of the major drawbacks I can see is the lack of multi-directional filming. Meaning, if the camera is pointed forwards, there isn't a rear view. Likewise, if the camera is pointing towards the interior of the car, there won't be any forward-facing footage. What would be the best solution here?
Get another camera that comes with front and rear camera. That's solve the problem
Of you need to film more angles, you may check some of the dual-module dashcams.
Same sentiment. Its a fake 360 not like insta 360.
Totally right insta 360 the best of the best@@thekuripots
Blackvue 970x 2 channel is what I currently have
If I buy this, can you recommend any product just for the rear camera?
(Since 70maiOMNI don't support rear camera with their RC06, they should have bundle it)
70mai M500
Does the video get saved to the cloud, or your phone app? I like the Nexar where I can review incidents or share, and delete if not needed. Does the video loop after so long?
It gets saved on the internal storage.
As soon as the storage is full - the algorithm deletes the oldest entries. All emergency videos are write protected.
I am happy with the old model + rear camera. Would be happier if it actually have 4 cameras to take videos on the side too…
What are you driving ? Google car ?
🤣
@@Scooterfanboy15
Gotta beware of those coppers, they are licensed gangsters in my town.
@@Scooterfanboy15 I just had my left side mirror stolen then other day and my 70 Mai front & back cam didn't pick up the theif... Cameras for the sides would be great
I brought two Vantrue cameras to do what you are saying. I use the front two cameras on the side windows. The rear cameras are in the front and rear window.. The rear camera's work pretty good at night. The idea is to capture accidents/damages that happen on the side of the car.
thanks bro
Any time
bel video. avrei una domanda:
Volevo avere la possiblità di monitorare il parcheggio da remoto continuo. serve una sim integrata?
oppure posso usare una wangle wifi sempre accesa.
For such kind of functionality you will indeed need something with a SIM card. Currently this model doesn't have such an option. Check some of the Blackvue options.
amazing work. I want to view when the car reverses. can I attach a separate monitor so that I can view the reverse or surrounding when I want.
Nah, this won't work. better get a camera with display and dedicated rear module.
do you have the 4k hardwire kit? how do you view the recorded videos on the app without it?
I don't; As stated - it should appear next year.
Thank you for posting this video. One question does this camera when it is in surveillance mode send you an alert to your phone or text when there are suspicious activity.
There used to be a plan to have a 4G enabled hardwire - this would be the only possible way.
How clear was the quality of video footage during the daytime, evening and/or nighttime driving? How clear was it to see license plate numbers whether oncoming, following or at signal lights during the daytime, evening and/or nighttime? Is there wide angle and telephoto lens on this unit and if there is, can they be used at the same time and viewed on the screen? What are the pros and cons? If you could get something changed or made better, what would it be? I know that you mentioned that 4K would've been nice however there were drawbacks to that...
Hey John - better watch the video and you will get most of your questions answered.
Как работи parking surveillance и motion detect функцията? Засича ли успешно вандалски прояви? Имате ли видео, показващо точно тази функция?
Hi! Thanks for the amazing review!!!
Do you know if I can use the 70mai Omni in surveillance while powered by a normal powerbank?
You can, but depends on the type of surveillance. You can monitor it via the app, but your phone has to be within range.
My older model 70mai dash cam won't work on my wife's ID.4 AWD since it got a heated windshield. Basically, it blocks the GPS signal of 70mai (but both our phones, GPS, or other devices' GPS signal are not affected, only on the 70mai) and made it basically useless. Because all the speed display, ADAS function rely on the GPS signal. I'm wondering if the GPS on this new model is any better. Anyone tested it on vehicles with heated windshield?
Is it possible to change the ADAS sound alerts? I would prefer a slight chime over voice alerts
Hmm, as far as I remember it is not possible.
I am hoping the basic version can be upgraded to 4g by adding a separate sim card. Or does the 4g version have a in-built sim installed??
The "4G" is being brought via the hard-wire kit as far as I understand. Will be interesting to see how it works as soon as it is ready.
I do like the concept of this product, however I prefer removable memory card feature in dash cams.... I like to keep my footage to view later after traveling through interesting towns and nature.
Good point!
Hello, nice review, do you know from where we can buy 4g hardware cable? Nothing in web site!
Not that I know of. Last thing I've heard is that they've cancelled the idea.
I'm not sure if this was mentioned but what if you want to use this in. a rental car (Business, Vacation , etc.) can I still use this by getting power from a car usb port or cigarette lighter.? I know you mentioned that it has to be hard wired to the car, but this is something that I would also want to use when traveling.
Hey, thanks for the comment Brian. The Hard-Wire kit is optional. 80% of the time I used it with power coming from the car cigar socket.
I like the 360 degree idea, size, and functions. But, It only has one camera eye. This means it can only record in the direction it is looking with the capable FOV degree at one time. I need something that is reasonable in size and cost (like this unit is), but capable of watching all around the vehicle at all times. I do like the voice command to spin and look at you and any officer who may (or may not) be having a consensual interaction with you. I think if it could have the capability to add more 360 degree view cams to keep a lookout all around the vehicle, and when needed be able to quickly focus where special events are happening from inside the vehicle. This will give maximum view and recording for you and your property. Also, the microphone should be more sensitive, but strong enough to handle strong vehicle stereo systems pounding on the mechanics of the microphone. Does the motion detection also have the ability to send a alarm text to your mobile? This would be a top notch feature. All-in-all, I am interested in this device.
this guy doesn't show number 1 but as you check out other reviews of this
some things you should be aware of before buying .
1. the footage of it detecting people and tracking people while parked is stock footage , this is a red flag , why did he not test the parking AI himself . the fact that he's using footage sent by the company shows collaboration between the two . this is not the only one , all reviews of of this product showing that same stock footage and not being tested independently are knowingly covering up the fact that parking AI does not work .
2. it's not the worlds first 360 motorized dash cam . i bought mine 10yrs ago and was looking to upgrade to the parking AI they claim to have.(mine is no longer made )
3. i paid $90 for mine , and a lot of the features that this camera has to be hardwired for came standard when plugged into a lighter socket , such as parking surveillance , motion detection , not draining your battery ,
4. no rear camera option .
5. other than the voice commands and warnings all the technology on this thing was out 10yrs ago.
I think you should explore some alternative products that may better for your needs.
@Tech4All I agree, and I have been. The ones I currently find are too expensive and not quite ideal. This 360, though, has potential. Again, not quite ideal for my needs, yet. Thanks for the Reply! 😁👍🏻
0:51 so does it still work after manual panning ? because i'm afraid that if the motorized panning/voice commands are too slow, then i would manually grab it to pan it lol. It's to record funny stuff happening at the moment in the car with the kids/family. but its also a dash cam that needs to record the road mostly lol. I have been thinking about the insta360 x3 for dash cam but low light bad quality and price tag too high for purpose
It works, but 70mai do not recommend manual intervention.
Is 32gb good enough? How long can it hold up before it starts to erase old videos to make up space? Great video btw!
Several hours. I'd go for 64.
Nice!
Yeah! Quite a unique one. Let's see how it performs in the long run. And can't wait to test the LTE hard-wire kit.
Is this recording the back and thefront at the same time or do you have to turn it yourself ?
Sadly not - it uses a motor to pan the camera.
I backed this on Kickstarter and it just arrived today. The small font light print was a poor choice for the manual. If you wear glasses good luck. It is much heavier than I imagined. I will be hardwiring this where it will replace my Nexgear. Since it can't be located in front of the rear view mirror which side works best? It's going in my Jeep Gladiator to record off road adventures.
I have it placed next to the mirror, looks fine. Indeed - looks bulky.
Nice video Sir! I got the camera. Wondering you can help me, without buying hardwire kit attaching it to cigerate lighter socket will I be able to use ADAS( eg; line change / front vehicle alert etc?
Yes, you can make adas run
Can it be powered by usb Power bank for parking monitoring? Or do you know about any model that can be used this way ? Thank you !
Yes you can, but it will not be that convenient as it will not do actual.parking mode and will record full videos instead.
@@TechMishka thank you ! By any chance , do you know how long would it last to record with like 30.000mah powerbank ? I'm looking just for a solution while parked in some spotty place. Seems that rotation would be working only with parking mode
Great camera but, I noticed your shirt...very clever 😂
Is there any info on hot days and direct sun light? I've had cameras just drop off while driving on a 100 degree day
They say that temperature tolerance is pretty good.
Hello! I have the following question, can the 4g module provide internet to other devices in the car (phone, tablet) or is it strictly for the camera? Thank you
That I haven't tested yet.
No. The 4G module works for the cam only. No Internet sharing.
How much heat can it withstand, like if the car is parked in the sun on a 40 degree celsius day for hours?
Capturing number plates is the biggest seller for me, how does it go collecting them when im going 110kmph one way and the on coming traffic are doing the same?
You need to be able to zoom in on a recorded clip if needed to get that plate and get that information in my opinion.
They promise great temperature tolerance.
As for plates visibility - I feel that it is good with this dashcam.
Thank you. I bought a viofo dash cam which now can view number plates at night when your headlights normally blur them because they're too bright. Pretty cool. I often wondered when this would be fixed.
Excellent video bro
Can you recommend something like a 3-channel or more?
Just had a car slammed into the right side of my car and drove off so I'm in need of something good and affordable as I live in Caribbean so I'll have to order
Man sorry about your accident!
Viofo have fantastic 3-channel cameras on a budget.
@@TechMishka thanks bud
I think I'll be looking for a used one... Can't afford the new atm
Can you explain to me how this dashcamera functions in detail, as in how is the dash cam connected ?ect
All of that is shown in the video.
I think 2K resolution is the "sweet spot" for dash cams and I hope you can change out the recording card because they will go bad eventually.
Здравей!
Предлага ли се в България?
DAMN! That t-shirt is... hmmm... something
Seriously where do you shop, Michal?
Hahah 🤣 I am probably not a great example about fashion and stuff, because I really hate to buy new clothes. Usually my wife makes me go.
Lately - I often go to Cropp - they have quite interesting and fun t-shirts, which are good about color grading. Funny enough - most of the clothes I buy in the past months and years I choose based on the color and whether they will look good on a video or not.
Can it be used to record just the cabin all time? Thanks
You can set it to do this, yeah
Have sensors for security ???
2:21 by any means, if not install with hardwire kit, the Ai will not be functioning? (such as motion detection / collision detection - WHILE DRIVING)
The AI works regardless of the cabling method.
Hello, does it cause emptying or any negative effect on the car battery in the parking mode? How was your experience while using this product? Thankful
Yes, it will consume battery. There are protection settings that you can configure in the app in order to avoid battery drain
@@TechMishka Thank you for your response. I'm very concerned that this camera might cause battery drain or even damage it. Have the software settings designed to prevent complete battery drain ever prevented your car from starting and turning on?
4k video record is not good idea if the video data is full which is not good thing. Plus I can guess the cost will increase that required faster processing and saving the data. But it is strange that there should more 1 gb storage either the format or the way handle the data or hardware specs.
What is the real life advantage over A800, other than voice command and 360degree rotation.
You just mentioned those. A800 is in some ways superior due to the possibility for installing a rear camera.
Energy consumption with one or both of the parking security features on, Drains your battery in a few days.
And a simple thing as the coalition detection, what should be done with an accelerometer that doesn't use more then 2 to 3 mah , already makes this dashcam us about 200mAh/h in combinations with the 4 G module, Without the coalition detection and Motion detection, it just uses 10-20mAh/h including the 4G module.
So the nice advertisement of the motion detections are focusing on a feature that you can only use for a short period of time. Leave your car for 4 days and the changes is high that it won't start. Except if you have a smart car that just completely switched of the Omni.
Good points!
When will the 4G AI feature rich version be available?
Can i use it with my installed viofo hardwire kit? Usb-c
I believe so. Never tested, though!
The electeostatic sticker comes with the camera?
Yup.
Can the stamps be turned off on the bottom of the recordings (especially that hideous X200 stamp?)
No only time stamp can be disabled
Nice T-shirt dude xDD
Thanks mate!
If I want to add a rear camera, how would I do about? Since 360 doesn't have a rear cam partner right?
Better get a dual dashcam.
@@TechMishka any suggestions? Something on the price range of the Omni 360?
this is the best quality I never Seen in dash cam . it's like smartphone and not a dash cam .
but the camera doesn't shoot 360 all the time, right? I mean, if I watch a video, I only see what the lens is pointed at?
Does this mean that if an accident happens from behind while the camera is recording, I don't see it?
The camera is not shooting in spherical mode - they claim it is "360" because it can pan.
Hello excellent tutorial but when the car is parked unattended and I'm in the office or at home it is possible to remotely control the car with the cell phone, if so how to do it is if there will be the Italian language thanks
Not possible. What you want requires a 4G enabled dashcam.
Does it alert you when you are not in the vehicle but within range of wifi connected to your phone?
Nope.
Nice...
👍
Does it works while parking as live recording …, if the vehicle off …?
Only if you have it installed with a hardwire kit.
I live in a very hot country, would the battery cause a problem of safety 😅?
It has very good temperature tolerance. Still - if you are concerned about safety, get a dashcam with super capacitor
Could it be turned upside down and mounted in the dashboard? Many states in the US actually have laws about cameras or anything, for that matter, being placed onto the windshield; even if it doesn't obscure the field of view.
I believe you can do this - but it really depends on the dashboard of the car.
@@TechMishka I have another camera that is hardwired. Should those cables work for this? Is there any reason I'd have to purchase the cables specifically for this unit?
I'm looking for a 360 dash cam. What is your pick honestly, price doesn't matter.
Right now - I don't think there's anything good working with 360-degree technology. We'll wait insta360 to design such 🙃
What you would need is a 2 channel setup at minimum. Blackvue, think wear, and viofo all sell high end units. Buy all of them and have it pointed out at each corner.
I'm curious if the front windshield will be hot in the sun, can it handle ? What vehicle test conditions does it currently have? $99 price is for most user ? or for the dealer ?
What I've personally done for my dash camera was used a eBay vinyl sheet. I applied it to the front outside windshield above the the wiper blade path. It provides some shade for my camera. It's been 1 year with this setup.
Pretty cool idea!
@@OneManOnFire hey Bro, could you upload a video of that? I'll really appreciate it
@@JoseJimenez-vp5kw I'll get it uploaded on my page I'm in my car right now
@@JoseJimenez-vp5kw it should be uploaded any second. My windshield is flat and pointed up. If I had a strap windshield I would've done a more protective cover with the vinyl. So far 8 months with the vinyl on the windshield no issues.
I like ur shirt
So the camera can be powered from a USB socket?
Yup.
It. Salve mike per favore poi dirmi dove comprare questa 70msi omni grazie
Aliexpress
can we use this as rear camera?
Theoretically - yes. But this wouldn't make sense.
If I park my car on the road and someone moving from rear , does the cam can trun 360 and focus on the target? 😋😋😋
Would be good to know how to hardwire it to a uk car?
There is no difference to other cars.
You mention somewhere that the one you have is 32GB. Does this mean there are other variants with 64GB, 128GB, etc or I can just put a larger uSD?
Secondly, you mean they have a 4G module in the hardware kit this time? I have the old hardware kit, which I thought would work with this when I ultimately decide to burn my $$ on it.
Yes, there are editions up to 128GB.
As for the LTE kit - it should be available next year. So better wait.
Does it make motor sound when rotating camera?
Yes, you can hear such.
support canada winter bellow -30 ?
That I am not sure about.
Unfortunately there is no rear view . Altough i like the pannning camera for parking monitor.
Yeah, no way to connect a rear unit..
why didn't you mention the the camera works in left or right directions for ONLY 10 seconds?? that's pretty important feature you ignored
You are right, I should have placed a note about it.
Can I mount it on top of my dashboard instead of windscreen? That should make it upsidedown
You could, but this won't be safe.
Where is the mount for motorcycle, ip68 and detection alarm (moving, noise detection etc) with big battery ?
Err... sounds like you may need an action camera...
@@TechMishka no there s no alarm and other needed alarm detections tools and a 360 view and record everything when someone steal your motorcycle.
If bike gone, how you get footage?
@@mcmach1 150dB alarm might help...
Looks like a black Minion...you know the Minions 🤪😂😂😂
Hahahahah, upside down one
Estará disponible para latinoamerica
Aca en chile?
Yeah, should be.
I just got a 360 dash cam. I need more information about everything before installation and the 2 customer service phone numbers is not answering. I need more information.
There is a fairly good manual inside with installation instructions. To use the Smartphone app to help you
just instslled yesterday and i saw the camera record in 24 7 how do i stop it
Switch the car engine off
Can we add external card.????
Yeah
better if can support dual channel recording to support rear cam
Was about to be nice indeed!
Yes i asked if they would provide as an add on but nope 🥲
Work with android head unit?Best regards
It works with Android and iPhone both.
Is it using a Sony sensor? STARVIS 2?
Not Starvis 2.
I actually don't think the specs are good. But I run multiple systems at once. Something like this would fit my needs if say mounted in the rear of my SUV looking rearward or two mounted in the rear looking out the sides. Not perfect but it's all about the layers of protection.
What kind of specs will make it more appealing?
@@TechMishka I'm willing to pay more for capacitors vs litium. It has a screen but honestly that is not really needed and or adds cost. Different mounting plates. While I might not like this camera I wouldn't mind mounting this in the back.
India mein kab tak launch hoga
Soldered onboard only memory is the deal killer for me, what a bad decision.
Can we turn off speed function?
Yes.
I dont understand how it captures accidents in the direction its not looking. If someone side swipes you would it see it before the fact?
It doesn't capture these, unfortunately.
Hello , where can i buy it ?
There is a link to the product in the description below the video.
where i can buy this
Used to be available on Indiegogo. Right now it should be available on 70Mai's website.
Please guys, serious question,
For what a dash cam ?
What is the question though?
I just wonder where you get this one to do a review since its not avail yet and being crowdfunded and availability is not before February 2023
Mihail and other trusted CZcams reviewers receive pre-production models for demo/review purposes. Even though 70mai have their own promotional materials and videos available online, they know they also need independent unbiased reviewers to give us even more information on their products. I'm really glad this happens, as it also gives many more opportunities for potential "bugs" to be fixed, before mass production ramps up in January 2023. Mass, in this case, will be about 2000 units, that will fulfill all the orders generated by the Kickstarter campaign. I don't know how many more, if any, they'll produce for direct sales, at that point. Like others, I really wish it had removable storage, and a super capacitor, in lieu of the battery! Maybe the additional power needs of the rotating camera make this difficult??
I have received the unit from 70Mai for testing. ajbfwb is right with his explanation.
Overall - I am not so convinced they really will be looking to fix bugs, as such are barely existing even at this early stage.
Looks like these days crowdfunding campaigns are a good opportunity to create hype, and to also make good forecasts about manufacturing.
The only thing that worries me about this dashcam is the internal memory would fail after the 12 month warranty,
4g plus sd card slot would be nice,
But for the price it just okay, 👍👍👍👍
Hey Craig, thanks for the comment. I am not sure what is the exact model of flash used, but they are of pretty good quality these days.
battery beats super capacitor as it can record for a bit after power loss liike what happens in an accident or you can take it to do 360 film of the damage or event.
super capacity brief interuption of power can stop recording and you might not get the end of the crash
Usually crashes take no more than 2 seconds, and that should be well backed by a capacitor. It is safer for hot countries too.
Parking surveillance, if a suspicious person is photographed, I am already in the company at this time. Can this be sent to my mobile phone? What is the effective distance or is it unlimited distance?
There is an optional 4G hardwire.kit, but I have never tried it.
@@TechMishka can you make a video review of this parking surveillance?
