Now’s the ideal time to grab a dash cam, as Black Friday 2024 is seeing record-low prices on some of my favorite units. Having scouted around for the best deals, I can tell you that the big retailers are the place to look, such as Amazon, Best Buy in the US, and Halfords in the UK.

My favorite dashcams are included in this year’s sale, but if I had to single out one, it’s the Nextbase Piqo (2K) for $99.99 at Best Buy (was $149.99) (or £94 at Halfords in the UK (was £119.99)) – although the also brilliant 1K version is even cheaper. But also joining in the fun is the smaller sibling to the world's best dash cam, the Nextbase iQ, which is already getting Black Friday deals despite its cheap launch price and only releasing last month.

Along with the best dash cam deals below, you’ll also find our FAQs for this year's sale. I'm tracking each product's price history to see how good each deal really is, and will only include dash cams I'd spend my own cash on. This page will be updated frequently throughout the Black Friday sales period, so keep an eye on it to get the best dash cam deals. We also have our main Black Friday deals hub for tracking all consumer tech on sale this year.

Today's best dash cam deals in the US

Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2
Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2: was $129.99 now $99.99 at Best Buy

It's one of the tiniest dash cams you'll ever see being barely the size of a key fob, but the Garmin Mini 2 is a capable on board camera that captures high-quality HD footage. It puts a focus on simplicity and has a useful set of voice control commands, a handy smartphone app, while the camera is easy to swap out if you own multiple vehicles. The Mini 2 forgoes features like a touchscreen display in favor of being so small it hides neatly behind your car’s rear-view mirror, and you can grab it now for less than $100 from Best Buy, though you'll need to buy a micro SD card separately. This dash cam has very recently been updated with the Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3 which is a only minor update currently costing $137.99 at Best Buy (was $149.99). I think the Mini 2 is the better buy of the two.

Rove R3 dash cam
Rove R3 dash cam: was $399.99 now $179.99 at Amazon

Save 55%: This new three-channel dash cam launched in 2024 secured a 4-star rating in our Rove R3 review. It includes a trio of cameras: two 2K and one Full HD, for total coverage of the front, back and inside of your vehicle. It comes with all the necessary accessories to get setup with a simple installation, besides a micro SD card, plus you'll need the hardwire kit for continuous power when parked. However, for three cameras, this heavily discounted price is very competitive – in fact it's a record low price by some margin.

Happy with a dual camera set up? Check out the Rove R2 4K Dash cam for $122.99 (was $199.99).

Nextbase Piqo (2K)
Nextbase Piqo (2K): was $149.99 now $99.99 at Best Buy

Best Buy has slashed $50 off the brand new Piqo 2K, which is a much smaller and simplified version of the pricier Nextbase iQ smart dash cam, with cleverly implemented 'light' versions of the iQ's smart features. For just $99.99 you bag the 2K version of the camera – that's cheaper than the 1K version right now. For most drivers, the Piqo will be plenty enough and it's a fraction of the price of the iQ. Is there a better dash cam for $100? We're not sure there is!

Miofive S1 dash cam
Miofive S1 dash cam: was $89.99 now $67.49 at Amazon

We rank the Miofive S1 as one of the best dash cams for a double-digit price, and it's now available in a variety of bundles at Amazon for less, making it even better value. The tiny dash cam boasts crisp 4K video in day at night, built-in GPS and speedy video transfer with 5GHz Wi-Fi. Sadly video frame rates are limited to 30fps whatever resolution you shoot at, but for the money you'll struggle to find a better or more reliable dash cam. If you'd like a rear 4K dash cam thrown in too, check out the S1 Ultra deal, further below.

Nextbase iQ (1K)
Nextbase iQ (1K): was $499 now $299 at Best Buy

Save $200: Launched just before Black Friday 2023, we labeled the world's best dash cam the "best add-on car security solution yet' in our Nextbase iQ review and it falls to a record low price at Best Buy. The largest discount yet is exclusive for the 1K (Full HD 1080p), with no noteworthy deals yet for the 2K and 4K models. Nextbase often does deals on its own store over Black Friday, so we'll be keeping an eye out for those. Even with this large discount, the iQ is still expensive and you need an additional subscription to realize its full potential, but you'll struggle to find a more versatile camera for your vehicle.

If you're super keen on a higher resolution model, the Nextbase iQ (4K) is $499 at Best Buy – that's also $200 off.

70mai Dash Cam Omni
70mai Dash Cam Omni: was $189.99 now $109.99 at Amazon

The world's first 360-degree dash cam, the Omni features a Full HD 1080p rotating camera that can record the front view or cabin of your vehicle, controlled by the free app. One neat feature is the AI motion tracking mode that can follow and record a detected subject that lingers for too long by your parked vehicle. The dash cam has built-in MMC storage with 32GB, 64GB and 128GB options – the best value options is this deal for the 64GB – the lowest price yet for this innovative dash cam.

70mai Dash Cam A510
70mai Dash Cam A510: was $139.99 now $99.98 at Amazon

We gave the 70mai dash cam A510 a 4.5 star rating in our in-depth review, calling it one of the best budget dash cams you can buy. It's already low price just got better than to this $30 discount and since then an additional $10 coupon applied at checkout, bringing the price of this dual camera bundle down to $99.98 – a record-low price for this dual camera setup; a 2K front camera and 1080p rear camera that's quick and easy to setup, ably supported by a fantastic app and it comes with a 64GB memory card. You'll struggle to get a better dash cam for the money this Black Friday.

Viofo A229 Pro 4K
Viofo A229 Pro 4K: was $379.99 now $239.99 at Amazon

The Viofo A229 Pro 4K Dash Cam the offers reassurance of both front (4K) and rear (2K) camera coverage, delivering excellent video quality both night. In our A229 Pro review, we also praised its ease of use and ease of setup, being especially suited to small cars and confined cockpit areas with its slim form factor. We thought it was worth the high asking price when it launched in 2023, and now there's a huge price cut it feels particularly tempting.

Garmin Dash Cam 67W
Garmin Dash Cam 67W: was $259.99 now $194.10 at Amazon

Garmin's flagship dash cam, the 67W, was recently upgraded by the X310, and as such it has received decent discounts ahead of Black Friday. The 67W is small and discreet and is easily installed, yet packs superb 2K video quality and can monitor your care while its parked. However, you'll need a hardwire kit for the latter feature, while cloud back up requires a Wi-Fi connection. This isn't the most feature-packed dash cam for the price, but Garmin is regularly near the top of our dash cam buying for good reason – super reliable dash cams with excellent quality video.

Miofive S1 Ultra
Miofive S1 Ultra: was $197.99 now $138.59 at Amazon

We rank the Miofive S1 as one of the best dash cams for a double-digit price, and it's now available in a variety of bundles at Amazon for less, making it even better value. Take the Miofive S1 Ultra, which is the dual 4K camera bundle – which is superb value for $138.95 at Amazon. It's a tiny dash cam with built-in GPS and speedy video transfer with 5GHz Wi-Fi. Sadly video frame rates are limited to 30fps whatever resolution you shoot at, but for the money you'll struggle to find better 4K video quality from both front and rear cameras for both day and night footage, or a more reliable dash cam setup.

Vantrue N2 Pro
Vantrue N2 Pro: was $199.99 now $118.94 at Amazon

The Vantrue N2 Pro is a refreshingly simple dual-view dash cam designed for taxi and rideshare drivers. It records the road ahead and the interior of your car in 1080p Full HD. There’s no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, but we would argue that these, and the smartphone app they usually connect to, are often unnecessary additions to dashboard cameras. The N2 Pro isn’t the best-looking dash cam around, but it records clear, sharp video and is very easy to use. It lacks GPS, but that can be added with Vantrue’s optional windscreen mount. This is a record-equalling low price for the N2 Pro. Fancy a more complete triple camera set up? The Vantrue N4 Pro has fallen to a record low $265.99 at Amazon.

Launched just before Black Friday 2023, we labeled the world's best dash cam the "best add-on car security solution yet' in our Nextbase iQ review and there's now £120 off the most expensive version which is equipped with high-resolution 4K video. Nextbase currently has a raft of sales on its store too, including a buy one get one half price voucher, which could equate to a big saving if you need two dash cams at the same time, or 10% off any dash cam. Even with this large discount, which takes the 4K version of the iQ to the same price as the 1K version, the iQ is still expensive and you need an additional subscription to realize its full potential, but you'll struggle to find a more versatile camera for your vehicle.

Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2

For most drivers, the Piqo will be plenty enough and it's a fraction of the price of the iQ. At the time of writing there's £25 off which beats Nextbase's price by £5, while the lower resolution version is even cheaper – the Piqo 1K is £79 at Halfords.

Nextbase 622GW Elite Package
Nextbase 622GW Elite Package: was £462.99 now £279 at nextbase.co.uk

A long-term entry in our best dash cams guide, we awarded this 4K on-board camera five stars in our Nextbase 622GW review because it offers easy installation and sharp 4K video footage in any light, plus a decent 1080p rear camera.

Is Black Friday really the best time to buy a dash cam?

As a general rule, Black Friday through to Cyber Monday is a great time to buy a new dash cam, with a number of leading brands saving their biggest discounts for the year's biggest sale event.

However, not all brands get in on the Black Friday action. Some won't offer a deal whatsoever, while other deals aren't as good as they first appear. In some cases retailers mark up the prices of cameras in the run-up to Black Friday, in order to offer a seemingly bigger discount during the actual sales event.

Whatever the deal is, we're sure to let you know if it's a genuinely good buy, being armed with every product's price history and an intimate knowledge of the best dash cams out there.

Ultimately, many dash cams do indeed drop to their lowest-ever price for a brief period over Black Friday, which is on November 29, particularly in Amazon's Lightning deals, and these are often among the best dash cam deals of the year.

What dash cam deals should I expect over Black Friday and where can I find them?

Having covered Black Friday for many years, we can tell you that many of the same products appear in the November sale year after year, and often for the same price. Despite a seemingly impressive discount, there could be better dash cam for you elsewhere for a lower price.

That said, the leading dash cam brands have been busy this year. Nextbase, Garmin, Nexar, Viofo and Miofive have all recently launched new models in 2024, mean discounts on recently replaced dash cams could be on the way, or the first discounts on new products. Look out for deals on the Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2, Viofo A229, Miofive S1 and Nextbase 622GW.

Amazon US and Amazon UK stocks the widest number of dash cams and is often the best source for deals in general, especially so on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. If you have Amazon Prime you can often get next-day delivery.

In the US, the likes of Best Buy, Target and Walmart offer alternative exclusive brands, while the best Amazon alternatives in the UK are Halfords, Currys and Argos. Do also check out our guide to the best dash cams for our top recommendations and all of the latest prices.
