Garmin dash cams are reliable and easy to use. You likely know how useful they are. Dash cams have gone from a “nice-to-have” to a “must-have” addition to your vehicle. Car owners, truck owners—even motorcycle owners—realize the value of capturing the many unexpected events that happen on the road on digital video. Garmin has a wide selection of dash cams, like the Garmin 47, 57, 67W, and mini all to be given away in this contest. Read on to learn two of my favourite features and for a chance to win one of these Garmin dash cams.

Garmin dash cams provide clear and detailed recordings

Drivers want a dash cam that reliably captures high-quality video and high-definition still recordings. There’s a lot of factors that can affect the quality of the footage: fast moving cars, varying light and weather conditions can make capturing good videos and images even more difficult. There is a lot of technology built into Garmin dash cams to ensure quality images are captured and stored, and can easily be shared afterwards.

When looking for a dash cam, look for ones with the right resolution that can give you quality footages. With the right resolution, dash cams can give you a clear and detailed picture of the road that captures important details, such as plate numbers. Garmin dash cams have the standard 1440p HD and 1080p HD resolutions that, combined with its Clarity HDR optics feature, ensure you get clear and detailed footages day and night.

Save videos instantly with Garmin online storage vault

The videos and still photos your dash cam takes help provide a clear picture of incidents that happen on the road, so having a place online to save all of them just makes sense. Most people want a dash cam so they can show recordings of road incidents as proof, whether for insurance or police purposes, and your dash cam should make them readily available for you when you need them.

With Garmin dash cams you can quickly and easily upload, manage, and share videos online using its online storage vault. When your dash cam detects an incident or if you choose to save a video, it will automatically upload and store your files to the online storage vault for 24 hours. If you want to store your videos for a longer period of time, each Garmin dash cam comes with its own subscription plan.

Through the online storage vault, you can access your videos using your Garmin app, where you can view, trim, and export your videos to save on your phone. What I also like about this feature is that you can easily share your video with anyone simply by providing them a link to that video.

Remember you can enter only once by commenting below. As we all look forward to the warmer seasons, I’m pretty sure many of us are now planning ahead for a few long drives we’re taking. There’s so many possibilities. Go camping. Visit a town north of the Arctic Circle, or drive from coast to coast. Whatever your plan is, drive safely and take a reliable dash cam with you: you never know what video footage you might capture. If you don’t have one yet, enter this contest.

  1. best feature to me is the dash cam detects an incident or if you choose to save a video, it will automatically upload and store your files to the online storage vault for 24 hours! this is a benefit to me because it reminds me, by uploading automatically

  2. The 1440p HD recording would provide crisp, detailed recordings. That would be important to have on record for any contested traffic accident!

  3. The online storage vault as well as Garmin Clarity HDR optics and 1440p HD recording for clear recordings make this an amazing item to own.

  4. The online storage vault that allows you to quickly and easily upload and share video. The video is no good unless you can get it in front of the right people that can help you with the aftermath of the incidents.

  5. Since I don’t own a dash cam I would like to have one to capture any road incidents that may be important later on.

  6. I like the online vault which automatically stores video clips of incidents, which means I’ll have access to the video when I need it. This feature will benefit my driving experience as it will be one less thing to worry about while driving.

  7. As a MINI Cooper owner, the only suitable tiny dashcam is the Garmin Mini. I need something that’s not going to crowd out my windshield

  8. The online storage vault is my favourite feature because you don’t have to worry about losing the info.

  9. I like that the online vault automatically stores video clips of incidents.
    This will help me access the videos later when/if I need them.

  10. The high resolution resulting in clearer pictures is a feature that is important to me. If I ever need to use footage I’ve captured to support my claim, I want it to be clear.

  11. Je pense que la meilleure caractéristique pour moi est la clarté de l’optique Garmin Clarity HDR et l’enregistrement HD 1440p avec des images claires de jour comme de nuit.

  12. The Garmin Dash Cam I liked the most is the “Garmin 67W 1440p HD Dash Cam with LCD Screen & Wi-Fi”. I love that it is “Designed with Garmin Clarity HDR optics and an impressive 180-degree field of view, it captures every detail of incidents around your vehicle.” I definitely need this 180-degree field of view. If I had it last year, I might have saved myself a new van door, driver’s side. Even my backup camera did not alert me that I was about to hit my husband’s forklift. I guess because I backed up on a weird angle but again, why my back camera didn’t alert me is nuts. I love everything about this Garmin 67W 1440p HD Dash Cam and would love to have it in my vehicle. I pick up my grandkids from school every day and their safety is the most important thing to me in this world. I need the safety and reliability of a good Dash Cam and this would be it. An accident, should it happen, would definitely pick up everything that happens around my Van. Thanks for the chance to win it.

  13. I want a dash cam so they can show recordings of road incidents as proof that hopefully wasn’t my fault.

  14. The 1440p HD and 1080p HD resolutions and Clarity HDR optics are the most important features. It would enhance my driving experience as it ensures I have very clear footage in any road condition.

  15. The Garmin 47 1080p HD Dash Cam with LCD Screen & Wi-Fi would be important for me to quickly identify license plate numbers in a hit and run. There are also impaired drivers to report for the safety of others. It is important to me because I am traumatized by impaired driving and there are so many strangers in a city.

  16. I like the feature that you can quickly and easily upload, manage, and share videos online using its online storage vault. We would love this because we are on the road travelling lots back and forth to our cabin.

  17. The Garmin 67W 1440p HD Dash Cam with LCD Screen & Wi-Fi – The Voice functionality allows you to save video, start and stop audio recording, take still pictures, and more

  18. One feature important to me is the quality footage with the right resolution Garmin dash cams provide so that you can get a car plate number for road incidents for insurance purposes.

  19. I like the standard 1440p HD and 1080p HD resolutions that, combined with its Clarity HDR optics feature, ensures I get clear and detailed footages day and night. This give me a peace of mind while driving in case I am in an accident at night and there’s heavy rain.

  20. The small size of the Garmin Dash cam helps the driving experience by it being as visually discreet as possible.

  21. The online storage vault is my favourite feature because it’s just another thing I don’t need to worry about.

  22. I like that I can save videos instantly, which I think would help me in case I’m ever in another accident.
