Rating of the best budget DVRs by customer feedback

Of course, not all inexpensive DVRs provide the user with a quality picture and have all the necessary functions. Therefore, below, we will not consider absolutely all the models that are present in Russian retail - it is pointless and would take us too much time. Instead, we'll talk about the best DVRs that get more positive feedback than negative ones. But we need to understand that none of the devices considered today has not been without certain drawbacks. After all, you do not expect to get a real monster for very little money?

What kind of brand to choose

Inspector

Perhaps the most suitable brand name for the DVR.After all, it is for the Inspector of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate that a picture is written for such a device. Except, of course, funny moments on the road, which the user can pour on YouTube. Inspector DVRs are on sale in Russia. They are distinguished by a low price tag and good construction - stressful overload during the accident the device will withstand exactly.

Neoline

Products under the Neoline brand first appeared on store shelves in 2006.All products under this brand are exclusively for Russia. The range of Neoline includes not only DVRs, but also all kinds of other electronic assistant drivers. For example, radar detectors will allow to accelerate to high speed from time to time, and parking systems will follow the distance remaining to the wall of the house or curb. The company sells and many other car accessories.

Prestigio

Under the brand Prestigio a huge amount of all kinds of electronics is produced. And not only automotive, in the store now you can find even smartphones under the aforementioned brand! However, from the best side show themselves only car accessories. They have not only a low price tag, but also a very good functionality. Many Prestigio recorders write a good picture even at night - it is not difficult to make out the number of the nearest cars.

ParkCity

Another brand that only Russian car enthusiasts know about. The video recorders ParkCity first of all surprise with its low price. Of course, there are top models with a very high price, but they are much more difficult to find on the market. As for budget models, they come with one camera, the lens of which has a wide angle of view. Most often on the back of this DVR is a tiny LCD display that helps the traffic police officer to get familiar with the accident.

Sho-Me

The products under the Sho-Me brand are characterized by the ability to work from the battery. In this regard, a rare Sho-Me DVR has minimal dimensions, because the battery needs to be hidden somewhere. Despite the low cost, similar devices are equipped with a G-sensor - the so-called impact sensor. It allows you to automatically save that section of the video that preceded the accident. Also Sho-Me DVRs are equipped with a good LCD display - sometimes its diagonal reaches an impressive 2.7 inches.

Best budget DVRs

Artway 022

One of the cheapest DVRs in our today's compilation. Therefore, we should not expect from it high power and the extreme quality of the picture. Pleases at least the fact that the creators did not deprive the device of the LCD display, although they could easily do so.

Advantages:

• Ability to record in Full HD resolution;
• Presence of motion detector;
• Ability to write a file after turning off external power;
• Very low cost;
• Convenient folding screen.

Disadvantages:

• Only 15 frames per second when recording in high resolution;
• No shock sensor.

Like all other good DVRs, this instance performs a cyclic recording. It is very easy to use and has the simplest menu. Reviews on Artway 022 indicate that even a novice user who is at odds with electronic equipment will be able to deal with the purchase. But this also implies a certain drawback - you should not expect serious device functionality from the device. In particular, there is neither a G-sensor nor a well-functioning night mode.

Intego VX-295

A very tiny DVR that is barely visible from the outside with the naked eye. At the same time, its value can no longer be called minimal. You pay for the G-sensor, high-quality picture( albeit in HD-resolution) and a very good LCD.

Pluses:

• Presence of shock sensor;
• Stably triggered motion detector in the frame;
• Ability to work on battery power;
• A good 2.4-inch screen;
• Very small size.

Disadvantages:

• Only HD-resolution;
• The price is not small;
• Small viewing angle.

Cheap DVRs can not be perfect. This is confirmed by the reviews on the Intego VX-295.In general, people are happy with their acquisition, but the sediment remains. Most of all, some buyers do not like the fact that the picture here is written only in the resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. By modern standards this is not enough - it costs a car to drive a little from your bumper, as its numbers are no longer visible. But the final image can not be called bad - it's not even a shame to send it to a television channel, if something serious or, conversely, curious has entered your field of vision.

Prestige AV-111

The simplest-looking DVR.When designing its appearance, designers were clearly on vacation. But more importantly, that the device stably copes with its task - it writes an HD-picture with a frequency of 30 frames / s.

Advantages:

• Ability to function from the battery;
• There is a motion detection function;
• Presence of the write protection function;
• The kit contains everything you need;
• Small size;
• Adequate price tag.

Disadvantages:

• Not very large viewing angle;
• You can find fault with the image quality;
• Not the most convenient menu.

Reviews on the Prestige AV-111 show that this is a very good DVR for its money. But it must be remembered that interpolation is used here, in connection with which the picture is far from ideal. If you are looking to consider license plates of cars in the distance, we hasten to disappoint you - with such optics and HD-resolution it is unrealistic. In general, this is an excellent option, but only for use by day, as at night things get even worse.

Artway 390

This DVR is one of the most expensive in our collection. It has a traditional form factor. A high price tag for price devices is due to the ability to record video in Full HD resolution at a frequency of 30 frames per second. This is a very worthy parameter, allowing you not to be horrified by the picture. Also, such a permit allows you to clearly see the license plates of nearby vehicles.

Advantages:

• Connectivity to the monitor via HDMI;
• Very large viewing angle;
• Normal resolution;
• Presence of G-sensor and motion detector;
• Qualitative CMOS matrix;
• Can work on its battery;
• The 2.7-inch display has no complaints.

Disadvantages:

• The maximum length of the video is 5 minutes;
• Some may not be able to afford it.

This device works with the simplest processor. But the creators were able to squeeze out of the chipset literally all the juices. Reviews on Artway 390 show that the DVR is writing a quality picture. To thank for this, we need high-quality optics, for the creation of which glass was used, and not plastic lenses, as is the case with the cheapest devices. The most important points here can be protected from overwriting. Present in Artway 390 and some other useful features.

ProCam GS7

The main distinguishing feature of this DVR is the presence of built-in memory. At the same time, the creators did not become greedy, having provided their creation with a microSD card slot. Also here everything is all right with the viewing angle, although it can not be called the maximum.

Advantages:

• Excellent working G-sensor;
• Ability to use built-in battery;
• Sufficiently large viewing angles;
• Having 16 GB of its memory;
• Very high resolution( 2304 x 1296 pixels);
• Adequate cost;
• Excellent CMOS sensor.

Disadvantages:

• No motion detection.

One of the most popular DVRs on the territory of Russia. Reviews on the ProCam GS7 show that the device is in no way in vain. In its price segment, it has almost no shortcomings. Of course, you can complain about the lack of a GPS-module or something else like that. But this is beyond reason. The task of such a cheap DVR is to preserve a high-quality picture. And with her device copes flawlessly.

Which budget DVR to buy

Today, a rare motorist will decide on a trip without a DVR.However, not always the choice is made in favor of expensive devices that remove no worse than some kind of video camera. Much more often the driver is in search of a good, but budgetary DVR.And here the choice is significantly hampered, since the shelves of the respective stores are literally filled up with low-quality products. If you do not want to accidentally buy some rubbish, then just pay attention to our selection. Any of the devices considered today copes with the main task very well.

1. Artway 390 is the best choice. It has very wide viewing angles, thanks to which everything that is not behind your back gets into the frame. Also here there is a decent functional and a high-quality optical part.

2. The ProCam GS7 is also an excellent video recorder. It has a smaller viewing angle, but the picture is written in a slightly larger resolution. As a result, the license plates of cars here are much easier to consider.

3. The other three devices are outsiders. But they have a lower price tag. Even the Intego VX-295 is slightly cheaper than the two above models, although in terms of characteristics, they are inferior to them very seriously. Well, the Prestige AV-111 and Artway 022 are the cheapest DVRs, from which you should not expect any miracles.
