Please watch the Q5 Pro review for more info: youtube.com/watch?v=_eZs4mqefJY || Learn more about the cameras here: inhawkeye.com

The Hawkeye U1 Pro is a 4K front and 1080p rear dashcam. Front only it shoots in 4K30, but adding in the rear camera drops the framerate to 4K25. It's also supercapacitor based so it should be fine in other climates.

I suspect this is the same camera as the Ombar DC42, although the rear camera is a different style.

This is a video with tons of driving footage and general samples of the U1 pro dashcam. It shoots in H265, and looks way better on my computer before compression, so do note that many of the compression artifacts are a result of the youtube and video editing process. I included some license plate samples in my first clip.

This is more "raw" sample footage than usual.
