Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3

The Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3 is a compact and powerful dash cam with advanced features that enhance your driving experience and provide a sense of security on the road. It captures your drive in 1080p high-definition video, ensuring that the details of the road, vehicles, and surroundings are crisp and clear, which is crucial for evidence in case of an incident. The included polarized lens is designed to reduce glare from the windshield, ensuring that the video recording is free from the obstructions typically caused by sunlight and reflections, which can be essential for capturing a clear image, especially during sunny conditions. The camera has a wide 140-degree diagonal field of view, offering broad coverage of the area in front of your vehicle. This wide viewing angle helps in capturing more of the environment, effectively recording incidents that occur not just in front of you but also off to the sides.

With voice control functionality, you can give commands to your dash cam without having to physically interact with it. This feature enhances safety by allowing you to keep your hands on the steering wheel and your eyes on the road. The dash cam provides additional safety features like forward collision and lane departure warnings. These alerts can prompt drivers to take action when a risk is detected, like when the vehicle is getting too close to another or starting to drift out of its lane. By subscribing to Garmin’s service, users gain the ability to easily share video clips of incidents or interesting footage. This can be especially useful for insurance purposes or when you want to send a clip to someone else. Also with a subscription, the Parking Guard feature can notify you of incidents that occur when your vehicle is parked, and Live View lets you remotely monitor your car's surroundings in real time through the Garmin Drive app.

The Garmin Drive app enables you to view, edit, and share footage directly from your smartphone. This compatibility with both iOS and Android platforms provides flexibility regardless of your device preference. An additional USB port on the dash cam power adapter lets you charge your phone or other devices without forfeiting the dash cam's power source, effectively managing the limited number of ports in a vehicle.
