Anker Roav Dash Cam C1 Pro

Roav is a new brand from Anker that is very well known for its power banks and charging solutions, this brand is for the car accessories. The new Roav Dash Cam C1 pro is the updated version of the old C1. It comes in a nice new packaging with very well designed graphics on it, showing the specs and images of the dash cam. After opening the box, the first thing presented is the dash cam itself, very neatly placed in a protective housing, underneath it there is the two usb car adaptor and a very long micro usb wire for connection to the camera. There is one more thing! - A 32GB micro SD card is also included with the dash cam, compare to many other vendors this is a really nice touch, it means you can use it directly without the need to hunt for a compatible card.

Installation couldn't be easier, just find a suitable position on the windscreen and peer off the sticky pad then connect to the cigarette adaptor and thats it! At first run it will ask you to format the micro SD card and set the time.

I use the dash cam all the time -- meaning when I am driving I don't have to do anything it just turn on itself and start recording, I don't need to press on/off button and when I park my car turn off the engine it turns itself off after 10 seconds.

There are a few great advantages of this dash cam:
  1. Image quality, the resolution goes up to 2K: 2560x1440 at 30fps or 1080p at 60fps, I generally use the latter as more frame per second gives better still images when the video is paused.
  2. Very visible even at low light or sudden change with the light condition.
  3. GPS enabled: with the bundled app you can see where you car was at any point of the video.
  4. Parking monitoring: this feature is great you can set the sensitivity even the dash cam is off if someone bumps into your car the dash cam will activate and record 30 seconds of video. 

I would highly recommend this to anyone that needs a dash cam, and here is the Amazon UK Link

Anker Waterproof Case, IPX8-Rated Dry Bag

With summer is coming fast, literally just around the corner, most people would go to somewhere beside water - swimming pool, seaside or riverside. While most people would enjoy the water related activities, there is one thing always kept people worried: their mobile phone, as most phones are not water proof and can be easily damaged by water. That is where the Anker Dry Bag comes in! Anker included two dry bags in the package with straps on them. that is really nice as most people going out with their loved ones. The case is IPX8 waterproof, which means it can go as deep as 100 feet, that is around 33 meters! It fits and phones up to 6 inches, that is like 99% of phones. To use the bag it couldn't be simpler: just open the two switch on each side of the bag and then place the phone inside, and close the switch, thats it the bag is water sealed. the bag is completely transparent, when the phone is inside you can use it to take photos or do other things you usually do on your ph...

Anker PowerPort Wireless 5 Pad, Ultra-Slim Wireless Charger

With the iPhone X and iPhone 8 coming out, wireless charging has become more and more popular, there are so many options and with the wireless charger from Anker I have great confidence and also it won't hurt my wallet. Opening the traditional Anker's white and blue package you can find the round disk charger as well as a micro USB cable included. To get started it couldn't be more easier, just plug the USB end to a wall charger or a computer's USB port and the other end to the round disc wireless charger, thats it! I have not yet purchased an iPhone X yet but I have a wireless charging adaptor which I use for my Kindle Paperwhite, I found with the wireless charger it is really convenient I usually read at night before going to sleep, and after I have done my reading I put the kindle on the charger and thats it, no need to worry it will run out of battery and no need to connect the charger in the dark. There is a small light on the disk to show its operational when ...

Anker PowerCore Speed 20000 PD

Anker has just released another new power bank called: PowerCore 20000 PD, from the name you would know it has over 20000mah and the PD is the interesting bit - power delivery. Opening the traditional Anker's white and blue package you can find the PowerCore itself and also a travel pouch, USB-C to USB-C cable and USB-A to Micro USB cable. It is long but not too big to fit in a winter coat, or my backpack, with this size but it has 21000mah capacity which is amazing!  I use it with my Macbook Pro 2016 touchbar version, interestingly it can charge the Macbook Pro. Also it has a normal USB port which can let me charge my phone and watch using my own cables.  I only have one suggestion, as this is the UK version, unlike the US version which has a wall adaptor, I would think a USB-A to USB-C cable would be nice to include in the package too, for people who doesn't have a USB C wall charger. I give this product 5 out of 5 ! I would recommend to anyone needs a power bank with...
