Unboxing
In the box:
- Transcend DrivePro 230 dashcam
- Transcend 16GB High-Endurance microSD card
- Lighter socket charger
- Suction mount (also available with adhesive mount, depends on your purchase selection)
The lighter socket charger has a long cable for cable routing.
Transcend has generously included a 16GB microSD card with the dashcam. The MLC-based NAND flash memory is designed for consistent long-life durability and endurance.
16GB will be enough for recording 2 hours of 1080p Full HD footage. When the memory is full, the dashcam will overwrite the oldest video.
The package I received comes with the suction mount option. There is also adhesive mount option for purchase.
