Thinkware F800 Air

I’d like to buy a dash cam. Why this one?

Because it’s the safest dash cam yet. Inspired by the Internet Of Things, the F800 Air connected dash cam automatically sends location and status data to your emergency contacts if it detects you’ve been involved in a car accident. Plus, it will notify you of any suspicious activity or collisions when your vehicle is parked and you’re elsewhere.

Rad! It’s pretty stylish, too.

Yes, the contemporary look is a winner, but it’s the tech that counts. Thanks to the Thinkware Cloud, this Wi-Fi- and GPS-enabled camera connects to your mobile device, enabling you to check your vehicle’s location in the event that it’s been stolen or towed. Geo-fencing tech also kicks in to alert you if your car goes in or out of a pre-selected area – ideal for when you’re letting others drive your pride and joy.

That’s good, because my son is a bit of a boy racer.

Not for long! The F800 Air’s Driving Report Service analyses the driving habits of whoever has used your vehicle, so you’ll soon know how safely it’s being driven.

What about the visuals?

1080p Sony Exmor R Starvis image sensors with Super WDR both front and rear deliver crystal clear footage, and Super Night Vision 2.0 vastly improves nighttime footage, whether you’re driving or parked outside your home.

Sweet. When can I buy this?

Thinkware F800 Air connected dash cam will be available from July.
