Wolfbox’s G900 Pro is a high-quality mirror dash cam, but just be sure it’s the right fit for your vehicle

Wolfbox G900 Pro: One-minute review

The Wolfbox G900 Pro is a mirror-style dash cam that records 4K forwards and 2.5K video rearwards. The weatherproof rear camera can be screwed to your vehicle’s bumper, turning into a reversing camera. A live video feed from either camera, or both, can be seen on the touchscreen display, which is integrated in the mirror itself.

Both cameras produce excellent, high-quality video, and the user interface is a joy to use – it's sharp, responsive and intuitive. The Wolfbox app also works well, with videos transferred quickly via 5 GHz Wi-Fi from the dash cam to your phone, although transferring footage directly from the included microSD card isn’t an option for macOS users, due to how the card is formatted by the dash cam.

Installation is more involved than with other dash cams, and the separate GPS antenna creates extra clutter that you'll likely want to hide. The design of the G900 isn’t perfect, as I found that its camera was partially blocked by the mirror assembly of some vehicles. This is a dash cam to try (or at least measure carefully) before you buy.

Wolfbox G900 Pro: Price & availability

The Wolfbox G900 Pro is priced at $360 in the US and £260 in the UK, although discounts are often available. At the time of writing, the US price on Amazon had fallen to $250.

Unlike some other dash cams, like the Nextbase iQ and Nexar One, the Wolfbox does not have a 4G connection and there are no ongoing data subscription or cloud storage costs.

Wolfbox G900 Pro: Design

• Doubles as replacement mirror
• Perfect fit isn’t guaranteed
• Forward view easily obstructed

Unlike dash cams that stick to the windshield, the Wolfbox G900 Pro acts as a replacement to your car’s central rearview mirror. It straps onto your existing mirror, and gives you both a reflected view of what’s behind, plus a view ahead recorded by the forward-facing camera.

This is made possible because there’s a touchscreen embedded within the G900 Pro’s mirror. The result is a mirror that still shows a clear view of what’s behind, but can also, with a tap to wake up the user interface, show live video from the front- and rear-facing dash cams.

It’s also possible to swipe and tap your way through the G900 Pro’s settings menus, and view recorded footage on the mirror/touchscreen, before transferring it to your smartphone using the Wolfbox app and the G900 Pro’s Wi-Fi connection.

As well as the main unit, the kit reviewed here included a rear-facing camera that can either be stuck to your rear window with an included adhesive pad or, since it’s weatherproof, screwed to the rear bumper. Here, it doubles as a rear-facing dash cam and also a reversing camera, with its live video feed sent to the display of the main unit.

It’s also possible to wire the rear camera to your car’s reversing light. Then, when the light illuminates the dash cam automatically shows a feed from the rear camera. The main unit is powered from an included 12-volt adapter, but Wolfbox also sells an optional hardwiring kit for a permanent power supply.

Wolfbox G900 Pro: Performance

• Lots of messy cables to hide
• Excellent 4K video
• Isn’t suitable for some cars

Despite being very different to most other dash cams, the G900 Pro is still relatively easy to install and set up. The main unit attaches to your mirror using a pair of included rubber straps, and is powered from the 12-volt lighter socket in the usual way.

The dash cam has GPS but, unusually for a modern, high-end dash cam, the antenna is not integrated. Instead, the GPS unit is a small box that attaches with a cable and then sticks to the windshield or dashboard. It’s a disappointing bit of hardware design, given the otherwise top-notch specifications of this dash cam. The GPS unit takes up space, the cable needs to be hidden somewhere, and it’s generally a bit of a mess.

I also found the main unit didn’t fit my car’s mirror well. The camera is fitted to the left-hand side of the mirror, which in my car meant having to install the G900 Pro off-center, thus leaving a bit of my car’s original mirror poking out from behind the dash cam. Worse still was how the camera’s forward view was partially obscured by the car’s mirror mount. I could improve the camera’s view, but this meant moving the mirror to an angle where it was no longer giving the view I needed.

For my own car, a 2015 Mazda MX-5 ND (Miata in the US market), this made the G900 Pro a non-starter. It also shook while driving, and considerably so while stationary with the engine running. The car’s own mirror doesn’t do this, but the constant shaking of the Wolfbox’s mirror and digital interface became a considerable distraction.

Hoping the Wolfbox would perform better elsewhere, I switched it to my partner’s Peugeot e-208. Being an electric car, most of the shaking I‘d experienced in my car disappeared, and being a larger vehicle meant the G900 Pro could be installed without looking too messy. The separate GPS module is still an annoyance, though, and some of the camera’s view ahead was still blocked by the car’s own mirror assembly.

It’s a shame some of the camera’s view is blocked, because the G900 Pro produces excellent 4K footage. It’s honestly some of the best I’ve ever seen from a dash cam, and is arguably on par with a GoPro or other action camera. There’s loads of detail, colors are accurate, and everything is nice and smooth.

The rear camera is almost as good. It has a lower 2.5K resolution, but still does a great job of capturing plenty of accurate detail.

The G900 Pro’s user interface is also impressive. The display is bright, sharp, and responsive, with an intuitive menu system that makes it easy to adjust settings. Wolfbox’s smartphone app is also good.

The setup process is quick and 5 GHz Wi-Fi makes video transfers speedy too – a good thing, since this dash cam formats its microSD card using a file system unreadable by macOS. I reformatted the card, using my Mac, to exFAT, but the dash cam still insisted on reformatting it. Footage transfers via the app just fine, but it can’t be moved directly from the SD card to a Mac, so you’re forced to use the app.

Recordings viewed in the app also show the car’s location on a map, plus a G-force indicator. This doesn’t seem accurate though, as it often indicated 0.8g of acceleration at 0.0 mph. Some data, like the map, altitude and the G-meter, are lost when recordings are transferred to your phone’s camera roll, and I noticed how the speedometer was slightly delayed when compared to the footage.

I also encountered an issue where the map that accompanied each recording (provided by Apple Maps) was blank. This was rectified by granting the Wolfbox app constant access to my iPhone's locational data.

Back to the positives, and I’m sure some drivers will love how this dash cam doubles as a rearview mirror. If you drive a van, for example, or any vehicle with limited rear visibility, seeing the rear-facing camera’s feed on the mirror can be really useful.

I can’t really see the point of the G900 Pro constantly showing the front-facing camera’s view, since that’s the same as looking through the windshield, but thankfully it’s easy to either show the rearview only, or have no camera feed at all. In that state, the G900 Pro acts like a conventional mirror, but with a simple interface showing the time and date in one corner.

How I tested the Wolfbox G900 Pro

• I installed the G900 Pro in two different cars
• I used the front and rear cameras on several journeys
• I used the Wolfbox app and analyzed recorded footage

To thoroughly test the Wolfbox G900 Pro I installed it in two different cars. The first showed how this mirror-style dash cam doesn't work perfectly in some vehicles, while the latter cast it in a better light. I completed numerous journeys with both cars, then transferred footage to my phone and computer for a closer look.
