These compact cameras stay out of sight, but they never lose sight of what happens on the road. Just plug them in, and you can hit the road knowing that these cameras are capturing high-quality video. Automatic Incident Detection (G-sensor) saves video footage upon impact, and the cameras are GPS-enabled, so all footage is stamped with location, time, date and speed. You’ll know exactly what happened and have proof.

These trusty dash cameras not only act as your eyewitnesses as you drive, but they also provide advanced driver alerts — such as forward collision and lane departure warnings¹ — to encourage safer driving.

Garmin"s Dash Cam 55 is an easy-to-use super-high-definition drive recorder with 2.0” LCD display. With an outstanding field of view, it captures the entire road and includes GPS for detailed time and location data, pinpointing exactly where and when events happened. Rely on your Dash Cam 55 to capture excellent video detail in both bright and low-light conditions. Mount the camera to your windshield, and record your drive in 1440p. Dash Cam 55 records in a continuous loop, using the included replaceable microSD™ card. To add more memory, add a larger microSD card (accepts up to 64 GB, sold separately; Class 10 required). Play back the footage right on the display or review later on your computer.

No need to worry about starting and stopping. If the Dash Cam 55 is plugged into a powered source, it starts recording automatically and saves footage in case of incidents.

The Dash Cam 55 features automatic Incident Detection (G-Sensor) so when an incident is detected, your camera knows to save the current, last and next recordings, thereby preserving a complete record of the event. And all this information is saved to the included Class 10 replaceable microSD memory card.

Parking mode monitors your car’s surroundings while your car is parked and the engine is not running. It automatically begins recording if and when motion is detected. (Requires Garmin parking mode cable, sold separately; professional installation recommended.)

The Dash Cam 55 from Garmin is a great choice for superb video quality and excellent brand reliability. Physically, it"s one of the smallest dashcams out there (despite the fact that the 55 still manages to include a screen on the back), and from a name like Garmin, you know you"re in good hands. For the basic resolution (1080p) less expensive version of this dashcam, please see the Garmin Dash Cam 45, or for the super-wide angle and voice-controlled version, please see the Garmin Dash Cam 65W.

The Garmin Dash Cam 55 is my fifth dashcam. Previously I had two Blackvues (poor performers), a Vantrue X1 (fine, but I didn"t like the mount), and a Goluk T2 (died after about a year). I was attracted to the Garmin because of its small size, clever mount, good visual performance and built-in GPS (many other dashcams require some sort of external GPS module.) I also had high hopes for it based on initial reports of excellent customer service from Garmin (I have previously owned Garmin GPS units and also found support to be good.) Now that I"ve lived with the 55 for a week or so, I find it is very good, but has some issues I consider serious. The Garmin dashcams are tiny, solidly built rectangles with a 2-inch LCD screen on the rear, four buttons on the right, and a lens that protrudes from the front. (An advantage of the protrusion is that the lens is closer to the windshield, which reduces reflections from the dash.) The lens on the 55 is decorated with a copper-colored ring that is attractive, but I would have preferred all black here. The left side has a MicroUSB port which is where the power cable connects. The cable has a blocky right-angle connector which is easy to attach and remove. In use, the wire runs straight up, where you may have tucked it into the headliner (as I did). The mount is unusual - a small metal disk about the size of a US quarter sticks onto the windshield. The small ball-joint mount magnetically attaches to the disk, with the ball snapping into the top of the dashcam. I found the mount to be secure and it was easy to adjust the position of the cam. Garmin supplies a long power cable with a 12V "lighter socket" plug on the end. You can optionally buy Garmin"s dedicated parking cable for hard-wiring into your car"s power. Recording while parked is possible only if you have this cable, which I do. (While you could use one of the generic "battery saver" devices, the Garmin won"t switch into a parking mode if you do this.) When you power on the Dash Cam 55, it first displays a warning message about not using it while driving. You can dismiss this by pressing the top button, or just wait 5-10 seconds. Note that if you press the bottom button during this message, it takes you to the setup screens. Then, if you have parking mode enabled, it beeps and displays for another 5-10 seconds how many parking videos were recorded. This feature was added in the 3.50 firmware update, and you can"t disable it. I hate it. After that, you see a live view with a plus in a circle at the center. This remains on for a minute, after which it tells you the screen will turn off and it does. (You can set it to not turn the screen off.) The live view is somewhat obscured by translucent information bars at top and bottom. The top bar has indicators for GPS signal level and internal battery level. If the display is off you can turn it on again by pressing the top button. Pressing and holding that button will initiate power off. When not powered with a cable, you can manually turn on the dashcam as it has an internal battery that is said to last for about 30 minutes. This could be handy if you have an incident where you want to take the dashcam out and record around your car. While recording, a red LED at the lower left is illuminated. If in parking mode, this LED pulses on and off. Recordings while driving have superimposed at the bottom the date, time, GPS coordinates and speed; you can select to not show the speed or coordinates. You can select among several resolutions and frame rates - I chose the 1080p 30fps with HDR (High Dynamic Range). There is a 1440p 30fps mode, as well as 1080p 60fps, but these take more storage space. I find the video quality to be very good, but not quite as good as I would have expected from the claimed resolution. It"s good enough for my purposes. The field of view is wide and encompasses my entire windshield. Garmin sells a model 65W with an even wider view, but I can"t see the point of that. The 55 includes several "driver assistance" features. Forward Collision Warning alerts you if it thinks you"re approaching something in front of you too fast (enabled at 30MPH or faster), but I found it tended to alert when someone changed lanes in front of me or if I was passing a line of stopped cars. Lane Departure Warning beeps if it thinks you"re straying out of your lane, but it kept sounding off for no apparent reason. Then there is Go Alert that tells you if it sees traffic in front of you starting to move, but it too was very prone to false alarms. I eventually turned all of these off. The dashcam also has a database of red light and speed cameras and can alert you when you approach one. There are none in my area so I couldn"t test this. You can purchase a subscription to database updates, which you must install with the dashcam connected to a computer. An interesting feature is voice command. You say "OK Garmin", it beeps, then you say a command such as "Take a picture" or "Save video". This works, but also tends to trigger randomly when it hears something on the radio. You can turn this off if you want. Another feature is "Travelapse", which you have to explicitly turn on and off (you can do it with voice). This records a sped-up view of your trip. It feels like a gimmick to me, as the video quality isn"t good enough for a "travel movie", but it could be fun for some. Because the 55 has an LCD screen, you can play back recordings right on the unit. The middle two buttons are up-down for selecting options, the bottom button confirms the selection and the top goes back. To view recordings, select Gallery and you can then see the different kinds of recordings, with parking mode recordings separate from driving mode recordings, which it calls "Unsaved". And herein lies my first major complaint. Like most dashcams, the recordings while driving overwrite the oldest when the storage is full, but the parking mode recordings do not. If you have the parking cable, the storage will quickly fill up with many gigabytes of parking videos and they won"t go away until you explicitly delete them. This means less and less space for driving videos unless you stay on top of this. You can adjust the time during which it will record videos while parked - the lowest is two hours. Every other dashcam I have used follows one of two strategies for parking recordings. Either they are combined with regular recordings and recycled as needed, or there is a fixed space for parking recordings that is separate but it also cycles - not the Garmin. In just two days I accumulated more than 13GB of parking recordings that I had no interest in. On the dashcam itself you can delete individual recordings, or if you scroll to the bottom of the list (annoying if there"s a lot of them), there"s a Delete All choice. It"s easiest when the dashcam is connected to a computer, but you can also do it with the Garmin VIRB app for iOS and Android phones. Note that the Garmin does what is called "buffered" recording in parking mode. If it detects motion, it stores 30 seconds prior and continues while motion is detected, otherwise it doesn"t save video with no motion. But in my experience, other than being parked in a garage, there will be almost continuous motion. Ah, the VIRB app. The words I want to use for this would get me in trouble here, so I"ll just say that it will cause you endless frustration if you try to use it to view recordings. To start, you have to go into the Gallery on the dashcam and select Share Gallery. Then it turns on its WiFi radio which you connect to on your phone. The VIRB app will then show you thumbnails of all your non-driving-mode videos - or it will if you have patience while the thumbnails are filled in. Each one has a date, time and duration shown, but the times were uniformly wrong for me. At first it seemed it was just not taking DST into account, as some times were an hour off, but as I went on, I found the times off by random amounts. At the bottom of the display of all the non-driving videos, there is an "Unsaved Videos" button which takes you to the driving videos. Again you get thumbnails with wrong times. It takes a while for these to fill in. For any of the videos, you can tap on it and select Play, but in my experience this generally caused a spinning circle to be displayed and nothing else. When a recording did actually start playing, it would play a few frames, stop, then play a few more. Ok, how about downloading to the phone? Each driving mode recording is one minute, parking videos are three minutes. When I tried to do a download, the app told me it would be more than four hours to completion. As a point of comparison, the Goluk T2 (when it worked), downloaded a three-minute 1080p video in about 20 seconds. So what CAN you do with the app? You can delete recordings easily enough, and can also check/update the dashcam"s firmware. But you can do both of these much easier by connecting the dashcam to a computer by USB. (You use the Garmin Express app to update firmware or red light camera data. This is also the only way to register your purchase with Garmin.) Unlike some other dashcams, Garmin doesn"t provide a supported way to extract the GPS data from the videos so that you can map your drive. The data IS there, and clever users have figured out how to use a different, unsupported Garmin program to get it, but it is an arduous process. Garmin really needs to do better here. The Garmin Dash Cam 55 combines very good hardware with not-so-good software. It is my hope that if enough people complain to Garmin about things such as the parking videos filling up the storage, they might address those in a future update. Garmin does seem to be updating the firmware often, so I"ll keep my fingers crossed. (I have communicated my concerns to Garmin.) Note: Amazon no longer notifies reviewers when a question or comment has been added, so if you add a question for me and I don"t respond in a few days, you can contact me through my profile. Edit: June 23, 2018 I wanted to note that Garmin now offers a suction mount and a polarizing filter for the 45 and 55 models through their web site. These aren"t being sold on Amazon at the time I write this, and the filter isn"t even linked from the 55"s product page. The Garmin part numbers are 010-12530-05 and 010-12530-18; enter these in the Search box on the Garmin site. The suction mount is handy if you want to use the dashcam in a rental car, and a polarizing filter can help suppress glare and reflections. There haven"t been any firmware updates since I wrote the original review, but other than the need to periodically clear out parking videos, it has been problem-free for me. I also found a freeware program called "RegistratorViewer" that makes it easier to view recordings on a Windows computer, though the software"s mapping feature doesn"t recognize the GPS data in the Garmin files. If you try this, look for instructions on how to fix an error with its use of the Google Maps API.
