70Mai has presented the OMNI 4K board camera, a next -generation update of the first 360 -degree board of the world, and offers a lot of significant improvements. The main one is the 4K / 60P video support, that is a great leap of the original OMNI 1080p recording.
There is also a new 1080p rear camera, which means support for double channel recording, although with both chambers in action the recording capabilities of the front rotating chamber fall to 4K / 30p.
We loved the original model and we granted 4 stars in our Cam Omni Dash 70mai review. That model is currently in our Best Dash Cams guide, although we hope it will be replaced by this last 4K update when our in -depth review is completely completed.
As for the price, the OMNI 4K 4K board of 70Mai starts at $ 279.99 / £ 268 for the front camera, while a package that also includes the rear camera, the hard wiring kit and the micro SD memory card of 256 GB will cost $ 406 / £ 389. Sales are scheduled for March, with a specific TBC date. We will update this page with the price and availability of Australia when we get it.
A more expensive and integral board update
This impulse in the video resolution and the box speeds is the new main feature in the new 70MAI rotating board camera. At the time of writing this article, the VIOFO A329 is the only other board that offers a 4K / 60P video for highly detailed and The soft recording, effectively doubling its possibilities of clear capture in case an incident occurs, and we call that Dash camera as a premium interpreter in our 5 -star A329 review in October. We expect a similar performance of the OMNI 4K 4K board of 70Mai.
Now you can also wire it with a 1080p rear camera for double channel recording, which means that its front and rear views are covered, although that is a more expensive package. The 360 degree capabilities of the main camera are your party piece, although it is important to keep in mind that it is a single camera that can turn 360 degrees for the road either Cabin coverage, not both at the same time. You have to choose if you want to cover your trip, or your karaoke sessions in the car, now with a slightly reduced field of vision of 130 degrees to the FOV of 140 degrees of the original!
Even so, the rotating chamber has some ordered characteristics. When it is in parking mode, you can track nearby objects as they move around the car, as a person who is interested in your vehicle and any possible blow of other vehicles, driven by the new movement detection of 70 MAI 2.0.
70Mai has changed the OV02K omnivision sensor of the original model for the popular Sony Starvis sensor. It is not clear how the sensors are compared, although I investigated a bit to discover that they share the same size of 2.9 µm pixels and a potentially similar performance of little small light. 70Mai has its own vision feature of night owl to improve night clarity, reducing noise and glow, in addition to lumi vision technology for visibility in almost total darkness.
Other shared features include Wi-Fi 6 5GHz and 4G for mobile application connectivity, transmission and recording discharges, in addition to GPS and ADAS support incorporated for pedestrian detection, lane output alerts and collision warnings forward .
However, the battery life should be better in the new 4K model thanks to a new Super Cardpisor unit against the original 300 mAh lithium ion cell. The size of the main camera screen has also increased, from 1.2 to 1.4 inches. You can discover more about the OMNI 4K Dash camera on the 70MAI website. In general, this is an integral update if more expensive, and we will share our full verdict very soon: trust us, this is one to take into account.
