The Garmin Dash Cam™ Mini 3 in the Ultracompact 1080p Dash Cam with a 140-degree Field of View and built-in Clarity™ Polarizer configuration is designed for drivers who want clear video capture in a small, discreet package. It records 1080p HD video with a 140-degree (diagonal) field of view, and the built-in Garmin Clarity™ polarizer helps reduce windshield glare to keep important details more visible.
Once connected to vehicle power, it continuously records and can automatically save video of detected incidents with date and time stamps. It also supports voice control for key actions, helping keep attention on the road while the camera works in the background.
Dash Cam Mini 3 captures 1080p HD video through a 140-degree (diagonal) lens, and it supports Clarity™ HDR for clearer footage in changing light. The built-in Garmin Clarity™ polarizer reduces windshield glare, helping preserve important details in the video, day and night.
Built to go virtually unnoticed, this key-sized dash cam mounts with an adhesive mount and is powered by a slim cable. The power cable supports two routing directions—upward or downward—so the installation can be kept clean and low-profile on the windshield.
With Wi-Fi® connectivity, saved video clips can be accessed in the Garmin Drive™ smartphone app on a compatible smartphone. For secure online video storage and sharing from the Vault, a paid Vault subscription is required. Live View is also available through the Garmin Drive app with a Vault subscription.
Once plugged into a vehicle power source, Dash Cam Mini 3 is designed to be a set-and-forget camera. It continually records and uses Incident Detection (G-Sensor) to automatically save video when an incident is detected. Saved clips include date and time stamps to help show exactly when events occurred. For storage, the camera requires a microSD™ memory card (sold separately) and supports up to 512 GB; it requires at least 8 GB, Class 10 or faster.
Voice control adds hands-free convenience for key camera actions. Drivers can use voice commands to tell the camera to save video and to start or stop audio recording. This feature is available in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Swedish, making it easy to use without needing to interact with the camera while driving.
The built-in Garmin Clarity™ polarizer lens enhancement is designed to make details easier to see by reducing windshield glare. Paired with the camera’s 1080p recording and 140-degree (diagonal) field of view, it helps produce clearer footage when reflections and bright conditions would otherwise obscure what matters.
