Most dash cams still max out at 1080p or deliver a sharp front view and a muddy rear feed. The F77 Starvis 2 4K+4K Dual IMX678 Dash Cam goes much further: it records both front and back in 4K, uses Sony’s latest Starvis 2 sensors and is currently discounted to $225.62 out of $399.99. This is serious hardware at a price for which you could previously only buy a simple single-channel camera.
What you get
The main feature of the F77 is true dual 4K recording. Both the front and rear cameras use Sony IMX678 Starvis 2 sensors, so you don’t have to rely on a 4K/1080p split. You get detailed 16MP shots from both ends of the car, which makes a real difference when you need to read license plates or zoom in on a specific moment in traffic or a parking lot.
These Starvis 2 sensors are designed for low light, so night shots won’t completely fall apart as soon as you leave a brightly lit street. Combined with HDR and the brand’s “Night Vision 2.0” tuning, the F77 is designed to keep moving objects and signs under headlights and streetlights readable, rather than turning them into glowing blobs.
As for usability, you get 128GB of built-in eMMC storage instead of a cheap microSD card, 5.8GHz Wi-Fi for faster clip transfers to your phone, a 4-inch touchscreen, voice controls so you can lock clips without taking your hands off the wheel, and GPS for logging speed and location. There’s also a hardwired kit for 24/7 parking mode, so the camera can keep an eye on your car when it’s parked.
Why it’s worth it
At full price, the F77 is in the enthusiast range. At $225.62, it suddenly looks like a very solid mid-range buy with high-end specs. Many dual-channel setups in this category still offer 4K at the front and 1080p at the rear, or forego things like onboard storage and GPS. Here you get dual 4K, better nighttime performance, and more sophisticated hardware and software than the usual budget dashcam.
If you do a lot of night driving, ride-sharing, or just need hard evidence in case something goes wrong, the Starvis 2 sensors and enhanced night vision are worth the price. Add in constant parking monitoring and faster Wi-Fi offloads, and this isn’t just a tiny camera on your windshield, but a comprehensive protection system for your car.
The end result
If you’ve been waiting for a serious dual 4K dash cam to drop into a more affordable price range, then this is it F77 Starvis 2 The deal hits the sweet spot. For $225.62 instead of $399.99, you get dual 4K recording, strong low-light performance, 128GB of built-in storage, GPS, parking mode, and fast 5.8GHz Wi-Fi in one package. Since this is a long-term upgrade for both daily driving and road trips, this value is hard to dispute.
