I’ve got a few Nextbase dashcams - 112, 212 and 3x 312s. I’ve replaced the batteries in all of them.

If you’ve got one with GPS, as long as you set the correct time zone, i.e. GMT+1 - it will pick up the correct time when it locks on to a satellite.

The 112 is not very good. I also bought a new-ish model, but I wasn’t impressed with it, so it got ebayed.

The 312 is my favourite and two of the ones I have were bought second hand on eBay.

I’ve got a 312 on the front of my daily and a 212 on the back, both of which are permanently powered when the ignition is on. Since replacing the batteries in them, I have taken to occasionally switching them on manually after turning off the ignition, so they will run the batteries down and hopefully will last longer this time.
