Don’t Pay $150, Get an Ultra Compact Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3 for $115.99 Shipped

The Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3 is the size of a car key—seriously, it’s only about 2.05 x 1.24 x 0.8 inches, and you can get one for $115.99 shipped, originally $149.99. You can tuck it behind your rearview mirror, and it’s so discreet you’ll barely notice it’s there. Perfect if you hate bulky gadgets cluttering your windshield. Product page.

It records in 1080p HD with a 140-degree field of view, so you get sharp, wide-angle footage of the road. Day or night, it captures details like license plates with ease, thanks to Garmin’s Clarity HDR optics. That’s a big deal for evidence if you ever need it. The built-in Clarity polarizer is a game-changer. It cuts down windshield glare and reflections, especially on sunny days, so your footage stays clean and usable. No more squinting at washed-out video.

You can even boss it around without taking your hands off the wheel. Just say things like “OK Garmin, save video” or “turn audio off” in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, or Swedish. It’s super handy for staying focused while driving. It’s also got your back with automatic incident recording. If it senses a crash or hard braking, it saves the footage instantly. No fumbling with buttons when it matters most.

Love the small size, which makes this camera piratically unnoticeable to anyone within the car. I covered the red recording LED with black electrical tape, which blends in perfectly with the camera’s exterior. The voice commands are also super helpful when saving recordings or activating audio recording. Kudos to Garmin!,” said one reviewer.
