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.

  2. The primary purpose of a dashcam is to record every detail on the road that takes place while driving. All Thinkware dash cams serve this purpose and much more. Of the models of Thinkware dash cams available, my favourite model would be the Thinkware F800 PRO as the Thinkware cloud function allows one to remotely monitor their vehicle’s location for increased security. This comes in the form of live notifications directly to your smartphone. I would hope to capture some crystal clear footage of any collisions (preferably not of myself, haha) or terrible drivers and provide the footage to the people that most need it.

  4. Id love the F800 to capture beautiful wild life and to use at nights in case of any accidents etc.

  6. I think the F800 would be great to catch any accidents or incidents involving the car.

  9. The 4K dash cam looks awesome but I would be very happy to win any of them 🙂 . I would love to capture video of some deer or baby bears.

  11. Thinkware F800 1080p Dashcam with Super Night Vision & WiFi is my fav and I hope to capture all the people who do an improper left hand turn right into the right hand lane. I have had some close calls and this would be great to prove it was not me. especially at ngiht

  12. I personally use the Thinkware U1000 dual channel. It’s a great camera. Very high quality recording and packed with features.

  13. The q800pro would be nice I’d try to get a clip of Bigfoot and finally get a good pic of him to prove to the skeptic that he does exist

  14. The Thinkware 800 would be my favorite. I’d like to catch a picture of a meteor streaking across the sky in front of me.

  18. I’d love the F800 for my husband! He drives a lot for work and it would be perfect keeping a record of any potential dangers.

  19. My favourite dashcam would have to be the thinkware q800 pro because I would hope to capture amazing scenic roads as well as wildlife during my road trips. I love to go hiking so on my way there, it would be awesome to capture the best views and wildlife interactions! Furthermore, with the q800 pro features, I would be able to see if it detected animal activity around my car during the night! I would love too see what I could capture with the thinkware dashcam!!

  27. The F800 sounds really great, all the features like night vision, parking great picture. My husband really needs one in his car as he drives around a lot.

  28. I’ve used a dash can for about a year now and the benefits of the F800 pro look like an amazing upgrade on my current camera.

  29. I would like any of the Thinkware dash cams. I live in the country so capturing any type of wild life like deer, rabbit etc is possible.

  32. I’d be happy with any, but the F800pro sounds amazing! The alert for front crash and lane departures, double the sided memory card capability and the fact it looks like original equipment just to name a few great options. Great articles guys! The reviews were extremely informative and I could easily see someone making an informed buying decision from them.

  34. I would love to have the Q800Pro. There are many things I would love to capture such as filming the entire drive of going from Western Canada to Eastern Canada (Which is something I do every summer). It would capture amazing scenery such as the ruggedness of the Canadian Rockies, the living skies of the prairies, to the sparkling lakes of the Canadian shield. It would be breathtaking to a drive time lapse of that amazing drive that I cherish every summer.

    Also, in the more practical way, protect myself from unfortunate car accidents that are not my fault.

    I must say Only at BestBuy you would find the best dashcams!
