In this review, I install a FITCAMX integrated 4K dash camera into a Cupra Born. This camera will also work in a VW ID.3 without all the trouble of using fuse cables, feeding wires down interior bulkheads or using 12V sockets or USB ports. You can buy this camera for the Cupra Born (other car brands are available) for $168 directly from FITCAMX ππ» bit.ly/fitcamxcupraborn. The optional polariser can be purchased along with your order or separately here ππ» bit.ly/fitcamxlens.
TLDR: The FITCAMX Integrated 4K Dash Cam is a sleek, OEM-style device tailored for modern vehicles. This Cupra Born and VW ID.3 model has a plug-and-play design that simplifies installation by drawing power from the rain sensor, preserving the interiorβs aesthetics. While daytime footage is sharp and clear, nighttime quality and low-light performance lag behind competitors with better sensors. The app offers basic functionality but lacks advanced features like exposure control and parking mode. Despite minor shortcomings, itβs a discreet, easy-to-install option for Born/ID.3 owners, though improvements like a better sensor and enhanced app functionality could make it outstanding.

[UPDATE: there has been some updates to the R7 Pro thats meant to have fixed issues in this video, namely the 5G performance and audio issues. I have yet to confirm these myself.]
Is the Bruxe R7 Pro 5G AI Box worth it? In this review, I fully test the latest Qualcomm 6350-powered Android 15 AI Box with wireless CarPlay, Android Auto, HDMI out, and split-screen support.
I benchmark performance, test 4K playback, gaming, AV sync, audio quality, mirroring, and 5G connectivity here in the UK. Youβll see how it compares to other QC6350 AI Boxes β and whether its premium build and fast boot speed justify the price.
If youβre looking for the fastest 6350 AI Box tested so far, but want to know about its limitations before buying, this review covers everything you need to know.
