A mini dash cam does the same job as a full size one, from somewhere you will barely notice. Every camera on this page is small enough to tuck behind the rear-view mirror, which keeps your view clear, keeps the camera out of sight from outside the car, and keeps your windscreen looking like a windscreen.

Small Does Not Have to Mean Basic

A few years ago a small dash cam meant a small sensor and footage to match. That has changed. Cameras like the VIOFO A119 Mini 2 and the Vantrue E1 Pro fit Sony STARVIS 2 sensors into bodies small enough to disappear behind the mirror, and the WOLFBOX X5 fits front, rear and cabin recording into a compact unit.

Screen, Tiny Screen or No Screen

  • Small screen: handy for checking the angle and playing back a clip on the spot.
  • No screen: the smallest and most discreet option. You set it up and watch footage through the app over Wi-Fi. The VIOFO VS1 Mini and the screenless VIOFO T330 series work this way.

Not sure you will get on with a screenless camera? If you already use your phone for everything in the car, you will not miss the screen. See all our Wi-Fi dash cams for more app-controlled options.

Hidden Dash Cams and Theft

A small camera behind the mirror is far less tempting to a thief than a big unit stuck in the middle of the windscreen. Add a tidy install, with the cable hidden in the headlining, and from outside the car most people will never know it is there.
