Redtiger sent me a unit to review and let you all know what it's like.
The box they send has everything you need to hardwire the unit in, which is great. It also included a micro USB 128GB so you are ready to go out of the box. It also includes cables if you don't want to hardware, but it's a lot of wire so you should really tuck it all away.
The unit has 4 cameras. It is a lower end model and not 4k, but I after testing it I think it's plenty good for anyone looking for a more budget unit.
I hardwired mine in, they have a switch so you can set it to turn off at lower voltages and a shock sensor to turn it on if someone hit your car while it was parked.
I think the main criteria of a great dash cam vs a decent one is if you can read license plates, and they are hard to make out with this camera when on the highway or at night.
The software is very nice, it's easy to lock a video if there is an incident with a button or your voice, and the size of the unit itself is pretty small - I put mine behind my rearview mirror on the driver side, it's almost totally invisible. I can't use the 4th interior camera mounting it here but that's OK because it has the rear interior camera still.
Here is a link to some night time video of the front camera:
(it's winter in Cleveland, dirty and dark)
Here are some daytime shots inside and out. I will point out it looks a bit better in "motion" than these screen grabs:
And some night time with a dirty car in the winter shots:
