The Dash Cam Mini 3 is the entry-level model in Garmin's lineup of dash cams, but it offers great optics and is a solid choice for most drivers.
It records video in high-definition 1080p resolution, and it includes a polarized lens to cut down on glare, so you get clear videos even when the sun is shining directly at your windshield. With its 140-degree field of view, it can capture a wide swath of what's happening in front of your car, and yet it measures just 5.2 centimeters wide, so it won't obscure your view while driving. Once plugged into your vehicle's power outlet, the camera automatically saves footage of detected incidents with timestamps—no need to press record.
There are some slight, albeit expected, setbacks: You'll need to purchase an 8GB SD card to use this device, and to unlock its full feature set, including live view and sharing video via the Garmin Drive app, you'll need to pay a subscription fee ($9.99 per month) . Otherwise, overall, it's a high-quality camera at a very affordable price.
