The 70Mai Dash Cam Pro from China's affiliate Xiaomi is extremely popular not only with our readers. This is perhaps the camera with the best price-performance ratio you can buy for your car.
In addition to high-quality and very sharp 2K video, it has the option of connecting a GPS sensor, which, however, has so far had virtually no real use.
Speed and GPS coordinates directly in the video
The manufacturer 70Mai has apparently taken the criticism of its customers to heart. He released a new firmware update for the 70Mai Dash Cam Pro a few days ago, which finally brings real use of the GPS module.
If you have purchased a GPS module for your camera, after updating to firmware marked 1.0.5na you will be able to turn it on display of speed and exact GPS coordinates directly in the video recording. The portal informed about the new update Xiaomimagazine.com.
However, as the author of the article mentions, speed and coordinates can only be seen when watching video directly in the 70Mai application. Once the video is played through the classic gallery on the smartphone, this data is missing.
