Nextbase 622GW Dash Cam
The best dash cam for safety features — Emergency SOS, Alexa built-in, and image stabilization.
Our Review
The Nextbase 622GW is the dash cam that could save your life. Its Emergency SOS feature detects a collision and automatically sends your GPS location to emergency services if you're unresponsive — a feature no other dash cam offers. Alexa is built-in for voice control, 4K recording captures razor-sharp footage, and digital image stabilization smooths out bumpy roads. The modular rear camera (sold separately) clicks on magnetically. What3Words location sharing pinpoints your exact position for emergency responders.
