Comparison 70mai Dash Cam A800S-1 vs 70mai Dash Cam A800

Model of the processor used in the dashcam

The term "video chip" is used mainly for devices with classic capabilities, "processor" — for advanced models with an abundance of non-standard functions. However, anyway, we are talking about the same component — the main computing unit, the characteristics of which directly affect the capabilities of the recorder as a whole. Knowing the model of the processor, you can find detailed data on it and evaluate how satisfied you are with a device based on such electronics. Of the most advanced modern chips, one can name, in particular, Ambarella A7L, Ambarella A12, Novatek NTK96655, Novatek NTK96660 and HiSilicon Hi3516.

The angle of view of the additional camera of the DVR. Depending on the design and configuration, we can talk about both a remote camera and a camera for filming the interior (see above for both); this nuance should be clarified separately. And the viewing angle can be indicated both horizontally and diagonally, which is why models with the same numbers in the characteristics may differ somewhat in the actual field of view. However, in this case, this difference is not critical.

In theory, a wider field of view allows you to cover more space, but individual details in the frame are smaller. In addition, wide-angle lenses give geometric distortion at the edges of the picture; and the DEWARP technology (see "Features") used to eliminate them is not usually used in additional cameras.
