Dash Cam 3 Channel 4K Review UK 2026

Key specifications

Video Quality and Resolution

Video quality on the Dash Cam 3 channel records from a mixed setup. The front camera captures in 4K, while the rear and cabin cameras record in 1080P, using a 170° field of view for the wide-angle coverage. The front channel is therefore the sharpest source of fine detail such as number plates, with the other two channels relying on full HD clarity. The wide-angle framing helps include more of the scene, though edge detail can be reduced by the wider view.

Front and Rear Coverage

Front and rear coverage is handled by a dedicated 4K front camera alongside two additional 1080P channels for the rear and cabin, giving priority to the forward view. The system is set up as a 3-channel configuration, so the road ahead, back activity, and in-car context can be recorded at the same time. The front camera uses a 170° wide angle to cover more of the scene during normal driving. However, the rear and cabin are recorded at 1080P, so fine detail there may appear less sharp than the front when reviewing plates or faces.

Night Vision

Night vision performance on the Other is driven mainly by its 4K front camera, while the rear and cabin channels record in 1080P. Low-light detail depends on how the front image is framed, because the wide 170° field of view can make distant lights harder to distinguish. The rear and cabin footage may look softer at night. Viewers should check Wi-Fi app playback after dark to confirm readability of number plates and lane markers, and adjust mounting if shadows block the lens. Parking mode is not covered.

Parking Mode

Parking mode on the Other is designed to keep recording while the vehicle is parked. It is described as supporting daytime and nighttime coverage while the car remains stationary. When parking mode is activated, it depends on the connected power setup. The reviewer should confirm it works reliably in their usual parking conditions, since missed events can still occur if power or the setup is not adequate.

GPS and Speed Data

The Other includes built-in GPS to add location data to captured footage. With GPS enabled, the dash cam can store where the vehicle was, so later review can provide route context alongside incident moments. The dash cam also supports speed information linked to the time of recording, so viewers can match changes in movement to the footage timeline. This can be less useful if GPS reception is weak, because location accuracy may drop, and the speed readouts may feel inconsistent in tunnels or dense areas.

Screen, App and Wi-Fi

With its 3-inch screen, the Other lets drivers review key footage and verify settings without needing a phone, which can be useful after an incident or during initial setup. The device also supports Wi-Fi app connection, enabling footage to be viewed and managed from a mobile device rather than only from the built-in display. Testing the connection indoors first is recommended, because signal strength can vary. With both the screen and the app, drivers can cross-check what was recorded across the front, rear and cabin views.

Installation and Ease of Use

After planning where the camera will sit, installation of the Other focuses on careful placement and secure mounting so the front, rear, and cabin views maintain clear sightlines. The front, rear, and inside lenses should be positioned to avoid tinted-glass glare and key obstruction points, and the cabling should be routed neatly so it does not interfere with trim. Once mounted, power is checked and any positioning setup is confirmed, as the built-in GPS requires a stable location. Day-to-day ease of use is supported by the 3-inch screen for basic confirmations, while Wi-Fi app access helps with setup review, although quick changes can feel limited.

Who Is This Dash Cam For?

This dash cam is aimed at drivers who want three views in one setup, as the Dash Cam 3 Channel records the front, rear and inside. It suits frequent commuting in busy areas, because the cabin view captures passenger activity rather than focusing only on the road ahead and behind. The front recording is 4K, while the other two channels are 1080P, which helps provide a more complete picture without switching cameras. Built-in GPS and a 3-inch screen make it easier to review routes and play back footage on-device. Fitting all angles can be more challenging if dashboard space is limited compared with a single-camera unit. Wi-Fi app connection supports quick viewing, but setup is still required.

Where to Buy in the UK

Finding a suitable place to buy the Other (3-channel, 4K front, rear and inside at 1080p) in the UK is usually straightforward, but it helps to check details beforehand. Buyers often start with major online retailers such as Amazon UK, John Lewis, Currys, AO, and Argos, where listings can be compared to confirm the 3-channel setup and whether a 64GB card is included as stated. Before purchasing, it is important to verify the maximum microSD card support (512GB if stated), built-in GPS, 170° wide angle, and Wi-Fi app connection. If any of these key details are missing or unclear, the offer should be treated as uncertain.
