With more and more cars on the road, owning a dash cam can save you tons of money in an accident. Strangely enough, major companies like Samsung haven’t started making dash cams. This means that the market can be confusing, especially since two dash cams can seem the same but vary in cost. However, you may notice that some offerings have more features that make them more costly.

The cheapest dash cams will record fairly decent video quality. Most cameras offer 720p video, but the sound may not be as great with the cheaper versions. Sound can be important if a conversation results from an accident. In most circumstances, inexpensive options also come with an adhesive mount for the dash cam, which may not hold the device securely in place. The middle-tier and high-tier usually provide clips or suction cups that will securely hold the camera in place.
