FAQ
Is a ₹3,000 dash cam good enough?
For basic loop recording yes. Expect 1080p–1296p, weaker night plates, and fewer app polish points than mid-tier kits.
Can I get a dual-channel dash cam under ₹5,000?
Yes — DDPAI N1 Dual and Nexdigitron ACE 2 sit in this band when street prices hold.
Do cheap dash cams survive Indian summers?
Prefer supercapacitor models and park out of direct sun. Lithium cells swell faster in hot cabins.
What memory card do I need?
A high-endurance microSD (not a phone card), formatted in-camera. 64–128 GB is enough for most budget duals.
