![]() Like the other screenless camera we used, the Garmin Dash Cam Mini, playback of footage is accessed through an easy-to-use app, Thinkware Connected LTE, which is currently only compatible with the T700 - one of the perks of splashing out on the device.Īnd don’t worry that there’s no screen on the T700 - we actually liked it, due to the fact that it made the device wholly non-distracting while driving. It attaches to your screen using 3M tape, and Thinkware warned us to use this sparingly, as you’ll have a nightmare trying to get it off without the help of adhesive remover.Īs you might expect from a dashcam that costs £349 but doesn’t have a screen, The T700 also functions differently from most dash cams. Like the Garmin, it doesn’t have a screen, meaning that it obstructs less of your view than you might expect. It seems like the sort of device that will stand up to any wear and tear that might be thrown at it. You can tell from the word go that the device means business - though it is elegantly designed, its stout, boxy design is also confidence instilling. So while you may not have heard of the brand, don’t doubt its credentials. The brand doesn’t carry the same name recognition in the UK as, say, Garmin or Nextbase, but it has found wide success in countries where dash cams are the norm rather than the exception: in South Korea, 70% of all vehicles have a dashcam, and Thinkware claims that 25% of the South Korean population (which equates to around 13m people) own a Thinkware device. When we spoke to Thinkware, it told us that it makes devices for people who know exactly what they want from a dash cam - oftentimes, people who are looking to upgrade, rather than enter the fray for the first time.
