Garmin Dash Cam 55 review: A compact cure for common traffic hassles

 

Garmin's Dash Cam 55 is a good camera made better with added traffic and stoplight-snoozing alerts, plus addictive voice controls.

Excellent smart features including stoplight-snoozing alert ; Extremely compact ; Voice command is convenient and addictive

Runs warmer than we'd like

If there's a better single-channel (no rear camera) dash cam than the Garmin Dash Cam 55, you'd be hard-pressed to find it. Perhaps ThinkWare's more expensive models have an edge, but they're not this small and unobtrusive. The Dash Cam 55 is good...

Great video quality ; Very slim visual profile

Expensive ; User interface can be a bit confusing

Garmin Dash Cam 55 Plus

 

If you need an independent witness when driving, you need a dash cam. Garmin's Dash Cam 55 Plus can also record when you're parked, will warn you of speed cameras and can even be controlled by your voice.

Garmin Dash Cam 55 review

  (Rating Hidden)

The Garmin Dash Cam 55 has been one of the most hotly anticipated dash cams of 2017. This is a slick, top-of-the-range model from a big brand name, complete with a big set of features and a price tag to match. Does it have what it takes to ace our...

Great camera but a bit annoying

 

I was shocked by the size of it when I opened it but the quality is there, its simple to use and easy to connect to my phone via an app, my only complaint is the constant reminders when driving which becomes distracting, also they need to update the...

Doesn’t do all the features it say it has

 

Brought this item as an upgrade from dash cam 45 but the extra features on the 55 don't work I've updated it and still no change as result I'm going back to the dash cam 45
