The Motorola MDC300GW Dash Cam features a 3-inch front-facing camera which is rated at 2.19MP with a 1080p Full HD Resolution and a Sony Sensor. This ensures that the video footage you get out of the MDC300GW is crisp and has a great level of color accuracy. There is no rear camera, which you can get on the slightly more pricey MDC500GW, but we still get the integrated GPS, WiFi and Micro SD Card storage, which makes the MDC300GW a very compelling package.
The 1080p video footage that you get out of the MDC300GW is perfectly acceptable and the built-in stability control irons out most bumps and shudders caused by uneven road surfaces. The low lux sensor performs well in low light situations and the 3-inch rear touchscreen is one of the largest (and crispest) around, making interacting with the various menus and settings very easy.
The MDC300GW skips out some add-ons like driver assist and the ability to wake the driver in case he falls asleep, but that’s not really a complaint seeing that the device itself costs just AED419.
Motorola also bundles in a windshield mount with the MDC300GW, but it’s just too bulky and makes the whole setup feel cumbersome, especially since the camera itself is so portable and light.
Motorola dashboard cameras are available at Virgin Megastore, and will soon launch at Sharaf DG, Jumbo, and Dubai Duty-Free. Alpha Tech (a division of Alpha 55) is the exclusive distribution partner for the UAE.
