Thanks to Sicurez Dashcam Station-Malaysia for providing the newly launched model from Thinkware, the F200. Malaysia is one of the three countries in the world to be the first to pre-launch this F200.

Test setup

[attachmentid=9918063]
I will be using 128GB Netac Pro micro SD for the recordings. I’ll also be using the external GPS receiver from Thinkware with the F200.
Initial firmware out of the box
[attachmentid=9918064]
Have updated to v1.01.00 from v1.00.00 with the update to sync date and time with the connected smartphone.

My thoughts
A great improvement over the F100. Videos are much clearer for this entry level dual dashcam from Thinkware. But I wished that Thinkware should have considered 1080p for both front and rear cameras instead of the 720p for the rear camera.
And most importantly is able to sync date and time and update firmware using the Thinkware Cloud app.
