THE Miofive S1 4K is an affordable, compact dash cam and as its name suggests, its front-facing camera records in high-definition 4K.
It comes equipped with a true 4K UHD sensor and HDR support, so the S1 captures super-sharp detail even in low light thanks to its advanced night vision and its wide 140° field of view.
The integrated GPS records your routes, speed and location data directly into your videos, while the 3-inch IPS display provides clear playback.
Easy menu navigation is provided by a series of four buttons on the rear of the camera.
The S1 includes dual-band 5G Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, allowing fast transfers to your smartphone.
Just download the Miofive companion app and you can seamless share your clips.
And if you want a dash cam that records from the rear then Miofive S1 Pro is the one for you.
It provides comprehensive front and rear coverage, capturing your journey in true 4K resolution at the front and 2K resolution at the rear.
Like the S1, the S1 Pro and its front wide-angle lens provides 140° coverage while the 2k cam at the rear covers 115°.
There’s HDR tech, and advanced night vision ensures clear recordings in all conditions.
Both Miofive dash cams also feature 24-hour parking monitoring but you need to purchase the optional hardwire kit that allows the camera to record when your vehicle is switched off, providing added security and peace of mind.
They are simple to install.
The front camera mounts to the windscreen via a 3M pad, then plug in the USB-C lead that’s provided, and connect it to your car’s 12v supply via USB-A or cigarette socket.
The S1 Pro’s rear camera is mounted the same way and its power cable plugs back into the S1 Pro.
Both front-mounted cameras can easily be clipped on and off its front windscreen mounting point if your vehicle is unattended for a long time.
Both the S1 and S1 Pro support up to 512GB of storage and come bundled with a free 32GB card.
But the ultimate Miofive in the S1 range is the S1 Ultra.
This front and rear dash cam sets a new benchmark in video recording with its 4K+4K dual front and rear recording capabilities.
It uses an advanced 8MP sensor, and the addition of a polariser function to the front camera optimises exposure, providing clearer visuals of the road conditions ahead.
The front camera uses a F1.8 large aperture and 140° wide-angle 7-glass lens.
Then the rear camera features an F2.0 aperture and 112° wide-angle lens.
Like the S1 and S1 Pro, the S1 Ultra is also equipped with built-in GPS and multiple 24-hour parking modes, adding layers of functionality and security.
The S1 Ultra supports up to a 512GB Class 10 – U3 speed microSD card, and comes with a 64GB microSD providing ample storage for extensive video recordings.
For those seeking to fine-tune their footage, the frame-by-frame video playback and smartphone app’s online editing function make it easy to select and zoom in on key moments.
The Miofive S1 is available from Amazon for £53.23 for a limited time only.
The Miofive S1 Pro costs £95.99 — also from Amazon.
And the Miofive S1 Ultra is available from Amazon for £129.99.
