Why use a mobile phone as a driving recorder? Seven years ago, who would have thought that mobile phones could be as powerful as they are now, with configurations that rival computers. Here, please allow us to pay high respect to Steve Jobs. The performance of mobile phones far exceeds that of driving recording devices.

The phone supports flash and front and rear lens switching for video recording. The current iPhone7 camera is already 12 million pixels.
