XiaoYi Yi BLACK POWER EDITION Car Dashcam Malaysia

The XiaoYi Yi is our top recommendation for any driver on a budget and looking for an excellent blend of value and performance. At $70 it records in stunning 1296P and provides excellent low light clarity to help ensure you are protected under all conditions.XiaoYi provides frequent firmware updates and is known to support their products well. We are somewhat concerned about it’s reliability in hotter weather. For drivers in continuously hot environments or extremely hot summers we recommend more heat resistant cameras such as the Transcend 200.
The Camera
This is the first dash camera made by XiaoYi after successfuly launching their home security and action companies. XiaoYi is a different company from XiaoMi who is known for their smartphones and other gadgets. XiaoMi invested money and owns shares of XiaoYi but they are different companies.
Video Quality
The video quality on the XiaoYi is outstanding for the price. It’s the sharpest quality I’ve seen day or night for $60 to $70. Getting into the technical details the resolution may be upscaled from it’s native resolution at 1080P. The AR0230CS sensor records at a maximum 1928 x 1088 not the 2396 x 1296 which is the eventual file output. For me this doesn’t really matter other than some marketing tomfoolery to entice buyers.
Startup Times
Something I didn’t mention in the video but the Yi is one of the fastest cameras I’ve ever used. The camera starts in two seconds and is recording soon after. Most cameras take 7-8 seconds. I have no idea how Yi Technologies managed to create such wizardry. Great job, this means no waiting in a parking lot for your camera to startup.
