How to Choose a Dashcam in India (2026)
Qubo vs 70mai vs VIOFO — channels, parking mode, heat, and what matters on Indian roads.
Start with channels: single front-only, dual front+rear, or triple with cabin. Most buyers who want evidence for rideshare or family trips should default to dual; triple when cabin footage matters.
Parking mode needs a hardwire kit or battery pack — check voltage cutoff support so you do not drain the car battery.
Heat matters more than marketing megapixels: capacitor-based units survive hot dashboards; look for real-world Reddit reports in your climate.
Storage: prefer 128GB+ for 2K/4K loops, and high-endurance cards rated for dashcams.
