Thinkware Dash Cams are easy to setup and use devices that deliver a wide range of benefits. Many people are aware that they could use the captured footage from a dash cam to help establish their innocence if they get into accident. However, they may not be aware of some of the other amazing benefits dash cams offer. You’ll find out for yourself how great these are if you read the information below before entering this contest. And if you enter this contest, you might win one of eight new Thinkware dash cams.

Thinkware dash cams are easy to use

I’ve sent Thinkware dash cams to various writers and there are a few commonalities across these reviews. First of all, they all found the installation and set up of the device extremely simple. For example, Dave Neufeld wrote, “Getting up and running with the Thinkware F70 Dashcam could scarcely be much easier.” In her review, Shelly Wutke said, “… it couldn’t have been easier.” Matt Paligaru explains how easy it is to install the front camera of the F200 he was sent then stated, “Installing the rear camera is just as easy.” And, after testing the F800 Brad Moon stated, “First up, installation of the dash cam was easy.”

See a pattern here? Multiple different independent reviewers, using different Thinkware dash cam models, all found that these are easy to set up. Furthermore, they all had no issues with using them as intended.

Why would you want a dash cam

Another commonality across all of these reviewers was what they saw as an important reason to get a dashcam: insurance claims. No one likes to be falsely accused of causing an accident. Dash cam footage has been used by many people to prove their innocence when the evidence was unclear or especially when the other party in the accident was not honest. Dash cam footage has also been used to help people get out of traffic tickets issued erroneously. “I didn’t go through a red light, officer; and, I can prove it!”

If you have teenagers, then a dash cam is a great motivator for them to driver responsibly: everything will be recorded and reviewed when the car is returned. Speaking of reviewing footage: you can also do this after a week of driving to help self-diagnose bad habits and become a safer driver youself.

Of course, you are likely familiar with one other benefit: capturing amazing or shocking events. I live on a tiny island, where the deer outnumber people 3 to 1, so I would likely capture a ton of footage of deer crossing the road if I had one. But YouTube has many examples of people capturing really cool footage like fireballs and meteorites—all thanks to owning a dashcam.

  1. the Thinkware F800 PRO Full HD 1080P Dashcam with Rear Camera & Wifi. would be good for our road trips!

  2. I think the X700 Full HD 1080p Dash Cam with 2.7″ Touchscreen would meet my needs. I would like to be able to record action around my vehicle so there is no doubt about who is at fault should an accident occur.

  3. I like them all but if I had to choose a favorite then that would be the Q800 pro. My wife does a lot of driving to and from Toronto and really needs a dash cam for safety on the overcrowded highways and streets. My dash cam has been important in two incidents. The dash cam she was given isn’t very good, it’s old and not much storage so a new one could be a real lifesaver.
    Also our upcoming drive to Victoria BC through the US on the way there and Canada on the way back needs a great cam to show the kids.

  4. Thinkware x700 full he 1080p dashcam and rear camera because there are bad drivers behind you too!

  5. My favorite is the Thinkware Q800PRO 2K Dashcam with Wi-Fi. I would like to capture a photo of a deer jumping over the hood of my car on the highway. Missing my car, of course! The beauty of wildlife in nature is wonderful to see.

  6. I would choose the Thinkware Q800PRO. I love the 2K QHD resolution feature that ensure clearer images. I would use this dash cam to record my drives through the countryside and capture video of the wildlife.

    Great to have for driving on B.C. highways.

  8. I think the fact the X700 comes with both a front and rear facing camera, that would be the best to cover anything unusual! We usually go on road trips and would be nice to capture scenic routes. Thanks for the chance!

  9. Any camera would be nice would love to capture every moment and memory we make with family

  12. Thinkware X700 would be great with the front and rear cameras, but the F800 has the night vision which would be awesome too.

  21. I am loving the Thinkware F800 for Super Nightvision. Being able to see the wild life on my way home from work would be amazing. I live in a area that has lots of deer and other wild life that cross many spots of the highway or hide in the bushes. As well as when its parked In sure we get lots of animal visits we are not aware of while we are alseep.

  22. Since the Thinkware X700 comes with both a front and rear facing camera, that would be the best to cover all angles! Hoping to catch some wildlife during trips to the cottage!

  25. I want a Q800PRO due to its nightvision feature. I would like to capture a rare astronomical phenomenon 🙂

  27. I think …thinkware X700 Full HD 1080p Dash Cam & Rear Camera to capture everything around me.

  28. I’m liking the Thinkware F800 for the Night Vision. Just capturing driving in general is a godsend. I currently have a low end model, and it has already saved me from a stop sign ticket. The look on the officers face when I pointed out the camera when I called her on her BS was priceless.

  34. I really like the Thinkware F800 because of the night vision. What I would want to capture is something spooky or paranormal at night.

  36. I like the Q800Pro cause it looks cool and has wifi. Would love to catch a meteor on it like the one in Russia

  43. They all look like fantastic dash cams but I would love the Thinkware Q800Pro for it’s wide angle viewing and the 2K QHD resolution. We often drive in the country and off the beaten path so it would be great to capture some wildlife too.

  44. Thinkware Q800PRO 2K Dashcam with Wi-Fi is great and would love to capture a peaceful drive along the Rockies.
