Pruveeo D90-4CH Review: A Low-Cost Four Channel Dash Cam
Category: 1920×1080
Modern dash cams should support at least 1080p resolution (1920×1080 pixels, also known as Full HD). Dash cams that record at 720p (HD) or lower are outdated and not good enough to read license plates.
Dual channel dash cams should support Full HD or better for both the front and the rear video channel.
