FAQ 1.
Are Cyber Monday dash cam deals worth it?

Absolutely! Cyber Monday is the perfect time to score a great deal on a dash cam. But be careful as some retailers do tag some consumer items as Cyber Monday deals, when in fact the price decreases are really just typical sale prices. You may also find retail pages filled with subpar dash cams from no-name manufacturers. But at PCWorld, we do our best to only highlight dash cam deals that meet two criteria: The product itself is something we’d gladly buy ourselves, and the product’s price is at or near it’s historical all-time-low price.

2.
Are Cyber Monday dash cam deals lower quality?

Not at all. There’s nothing bad about the dash cams themselves, but it may be the case that dash cams on sale during Cyber Monday are previous years’ models or might not have the latest features and specs. But this is all relative, and we only recommend dash cams with pricing that aligns with the quality of the device itself.

3.
What should I look for in a Cyber Monday dash cam deal?

When purchasing a dash cam, you will want to focus on a few important features such as video capabilities, recording options, and other handy nice-to-haves. Video capabilities will be the most important aspect of your decision. You’ll want to consider whether you need front and rearview or just front view. Also, check the resolution—we recommend at least 1080p, but premium 4K resolution dash cams really make a difference if you can swing the extra cost.

Additionally, you will want to take a look at the field of view. The sweet spot is between 120 to 140 degrees field of view, as anything less might miss important things and anything more may cause a fish-eye distortion to the recordings.

Next, you will want to decide on the recording options you need. Continuous loop recording automatically overwrites older recordings at specified intervals (unless saved) in order to minimize storage requirements. There is also incident recording, which uses motion detection and triggered impact detection to record possible accidents.

As for storage options, you will generally find that there are two options to choose from: cloud storage and microSD card storage. Cloud storage isn’t as common, but it can be nice to have if you’re worried about losing a physical memory card. Otherwise, a microSD card will be the most common option.

Finally, you should consider any other handy features that a particular dash cam might provide. These include GPS navigation, phone connectivity, parking monitoring, night vision, and speed detection. All of these will depend on your personal preference, but should be taken into account before purchase.

4.
Which dash cams does PCWorld rate the highest?

PCWorld tests and reviews dash cams every month. We encourage you to check our rankings of the best dash cams of 2022, as many of the models we rate the highest will see price drops around Black Friday.

5.
Will adding a dash cam lower my insurance rates?

In the United States, insurance companies generally don’t offer discounts for customers with dash cams installed. That said, the cameras do have their upsides: If you get into an accident, the video evidence can be used to prove you weren’t at fault. To this extent, dash cams can be useful for capturing evidence of car theft, vandalism and of course run-of-the-mill accidents.
