If you have an old Android, then there are several good dashcam apps, which effectively turn the phone into a fully featured dashcam, including shutting it off with the ignition, loop recording and generally more functionality than a cheap or expensive dashcams. Not forgetting that most good Android phones, have better cameras than a proper dashcam.
As this is a reverse facing dash cam that presumably the driver wants to be able to view, I think he'd need a USB camera - and older phones won't work with them.If you have an old Android, then there are several good dashcam apps, which effectively turn the phone into a fully featured dashcam, including shutting it off with the ignition, loop recording and generally more functionality than a cheap or expensive dashcams.

These are so incredibly cheap.
No, just standard bulk manufacturing of electronic components. The Chinese can manufacture stuff at a fraction of the cost of the rest of the world. This is why companies like Apple, Acer and Dell manufacture stuff in China, as cheap manufacturing, means more profits for the company. Electronics manufacturing costs have spiralled over the last few years. It's amazing that these camera/ mirrors are so cheap, even with shipping from China.
I order lots of stuff from China, mostly electronic components and circuits. It's amazing just how little some stuff costs with free shipping. The mind boggles at just how little China post must cost. The sort of stuff I order from China often couldn't be posted in the UK for the amount of money. Let alone make the items, sell them for a profit and ship them half way round the world.
The State pays all postal charges, I think. If not all, then certainly most.
Ah - that starts to make sense - a state subsidised postal service.
That would also explain how I can buy 5 Lithium battery protection boards for 99 pence, with free shipping from China.
