Garmin Dash Cam 45 review: Compact, clever and Wi-Fi-enabled, but average video at best

This is a nicely designed dash cam with a clever magnetic mount and a very nice feature set. Garmin also knows dash cams—every setting and tweak required is in place, including integrated GPS. However, night video isn’t up to current standards, and bumps aren’t stabilized in video very well. There are significantly cheaper cameras with better video. Opt for the nearly identical, albeit pricier, Garmin Dash Cam 55, which offers significantly better captures.

Captures can lack detail, and image stabilization can be an issue.

Garmin’s Dash Cam 45 shares all the advanced features found in its Dash Cam 55 and Dash Cam 65W siblings, such as driver alerts, Wi-Fi offloading via an app, integrated GPS, and red light camera tracking. It also sports the same compact design and a clever magnetic mount.
