zhiroad Q27 Dashcam 4K, Front Camera with 170° View and 64GB Card

With its 2.99-inch screen, the zhiroad Q27 Dashcam 4K lets you check footage directly in the car. It records the road ahead in 2160p and pairs a 170° field of view with built-in Wi-Fi and app control. Would you rather review a clip on the camera or on your phone? You can do either, with the included 64GB memory card ready for recording.

Quick overview

This front-facing dash cam combines a broad view of the road with a screen for checking footage at a glance. Its lens can tilt up or down by 45°, helping you adjust the recorded view once the camera is mounted on the windscreen. The 2.99-inch IPS display is useful for viewing clips in the car, while the Viidure app lets you view, play, download and share footage on a smartphone over the built-in 5G Wi-Fi connection. For a setup that keeps playback on the camera as well as offering phone access, it brings both approaches together.

Loop recording manages the 64GB card by replacing older footage when storage is full. If an impact or emergency braking triggers the G-sensor, the current video is locked so it is not removed as part of that regular cycle. This makes the camera suited to everyday journeys where you want a continuing record without manually clearing the card. Buyers often praise the clear display and picture quality, straightforward installation and supplied memory card. Feedback on reliability is mixed, with some customers reporting that their camera would not power up, Wi-Fi experiences also vary.

Getting the most from it

The Q27 uses a six-layer lens with an f/1.8 aperture and WDR technology to balance brightness in very bright or dark scenes. That combination is intended to help capture a clearer view in changing light, including night-time driving. Once installed, set the camera’s angle so its wide field of view covers the road ahead, then use the screen for a quick check or the app when you want to save and share a clip. The listed installation accessories include a car charger, cable clip, crowbar and installation tool, alongside a user manual.

Parking monitoring supports recording while the vehicle is stationary. To use that function, a hardwire kit is required and is sold separately. This is a practical distinction when choosing between a dash cam for journeys alone and one intended to monitor the parked car as well.

Everyday use

For a daily commute, loop recording keeps the camera recording without requiring you to manage files after every trip. If an incident occurs, the G-sensor’s locked clip remains available for review. The screen is handy for checking the camera’s view in place, while Wi-Fi and the Viidure app provide another way to play or download footage on your phone. The stated Wi-Fi range is up to 5 metres, so use the phone near the camera when connecting or transferring clips.

The front-camera format keeps the setup focused on the road ahead rather than recording multiple vehicle directions. Worth considering if you want a windscreen-mounted camera with 4K recording, a supplied memory card and both on-device and app-based viewing.

Questions before you buy

What is needed for parking monitoring? The camera supports recording while the car is stationary, and using this function requires a hardwire kit, sold separately.

Final verdict

The zhiroad Q27 is a practical fit for drivers who want a front dash cam that combines 2160p recording, a wide 170° view and simple access to clips on its screen or through an app. Its 64GB card and loop recording support regular day-to-day use, while the G-sensor helps preserve footage when an impact or emergency braking occurs. Choose it for a focused front-camera setup, with parking monitoring available when paired with the required hardwire kit.
