The \u003cstrong\u003eDAZA SQ12 is a 4K mirror dash cam\u003c\/strong\u003e built around two Sony STARVIS 2 sensors — a 4K IMX678 up front and a 2.5K IMX675 at the rear — so the details that actually settle a claim survive the dark, the rain and the glare. It replaces your rear-view mirror with a 12-inch 1200-nit touchscreen, listens to voice commands so your hands stay on the wheel, and ships with the OBD hardwire cable already in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDual Sony STARVIS 2 Sensors with HDR\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFront records in \u003cstrong\u003e4K on a Sony IMX678\u003c\/strong\u003e; the rear records in \u003cstrong\u003e2.5K on a Sony IMX675\u003c\/strong\u003e. Both are STARVIS 2 generation sensors with HDR processing, which is what lets the camera hold a licence plate inside a headlight flare instead of blowing the whole frame out. Combined field of view is \u003cstrong\u003e280°\u003c\/strong\u003e — 135° front, 145° rear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNight Vision That Actually Reads Plates\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTARVIS 2 delivers roughly \u003cstrong\u003e30% brighter low-light footage\u003c\/strong\u003e and noticeably less motion blur than the previous generation. On an unlit road or a wet city street at night, that is the difference between \"a dark car hit me\" and a plate number you can hand to your insurer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e12\" Ultra-Clear 1200-Nit Display\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost mirror dash cams run a 600–800 nit panel that washes out in direct sun. The SQ12 uses a \u003cstrong\u003e1200-nit ultra-clear display glass\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the image stays readable at midday and the anti-glare treatment keeps it comfortable after dark. Brightness is adjustable, and the whole screen is touch-driven.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIntelligent Voice Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEight commands, no reaching for the screen: \u003cem\u003eShow Front Camera · Show Rear Camera · Open Screen · Turn off Display · Open Recording · Turn off Recording · Take Picture · Lock the Video\u003c\/em\u003e.

When a dispute comes down to how fast you were going or exactly where the impact happened, that data is already in the file — no argument required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e5.8GHz Wi-Fi and App Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SQ12 runs on \u003cstrong\u003e5.8GHz Wi-Fi at around 10MB\/s — roughly 4× faster\u003c\/strong\u003e than the 2.4GHz radios most dash cams use. Pair it with the free \u003cstrong\u003eJourney Nice\u003c\/strong\u003e app on iOS or Android for real-time preview, settings changes, downloading and editing clips, and one-tap sharing. Getting evidence off the camera takes seconds, not a trip home with a card reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e24\/7 Parking Monitoring — OBD Cable Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the part most brands charge extra for. The \u003cstrong\u003eOBD hardwire cable comes in the box\u003c\/strong\u003e, so 24-hour parking protection works out of the box. Leave the car and the SQ12 keeps watching: \u003cstrong\u003ecollision detection\u003c\/strong\u003e auto-locks the clip when something hits you, \u003cstrong\u003etime-lapse mode\u003c\/strong\u003e condenses quiet hours into a reviewable file, and \u003cstrong\u003equick start mode\u003c\/strong\u003e wakes the camera fast enough to catch the moment of impact. Collision sensitivity is adjustable across three levels — low, medium and high — and built-in battery protection cuts power before your car battery is at risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReverse Camera and Parking Assistance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rear camera doubles as a backup camera with on-screen guidelines, and the 27ft rear cable is long enough for compact cars, SUVs, pickup trucks and camper vans alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTotal View Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeft mirror, right mirror and rear window all have blind spots the SQ12 does not.

Compared with earlier sensors it captures around 30% more light and shows less motion blur, which is what makes plates legible at night and in the rain rather than just visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it drain my car battery?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The OBD cable includes low-voltage battery protection that shuts the camera down before your battery reaches a level that would prevent starting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it as a backup camera?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
