When I first opened this unit’s box up, I was shocked at the small size of the unit. But after putting it up behind the rear-view mirror it was less of a distraction. I realized there no reason to have look at the dash cam while driving. The cam does loop record like it says, my old cam set at looping just filled up the memory card tell it said it was full. The recording quality is excellent. You do need to take out the memory card to down load videos, if you plug it straight into the unit it keeps shutting off. This is an excellent dash cam for the price.
