Promotional price of the best car camera
Car camera model 70mai A810 presented for 2023 is currently available in our own Maldo.sk e-shop and we actually have the camera in stock here in Košice. This means express delivery within 1-3 business days.
If we now compare the price with the Chinese Aliexpress, where the camera costs €141, compared to the price of €159 in our e-shop, it is really not worth ordering from China. First, because of the delivery time (currently 3 weeks to a month from Ali), but also because 2-year warranty, which you will not get from Aliexpress.
