Summary: List of today's best small dashcams.
Most dashcams are quite small and fit easily behind the interior mirror in your car. A small dashcam has the advantage that it is barely noticeable when you are driving. Because a small dashcam is therefore less conspicuous in the car, it is also much less likely to be stolen. A small dashcam often has no (or only a very compact) LCD screen and sometimes you also have to compromise on other functionalities. However, small dashcams do not always have to be less good, these are some of the best options:
Nanocam M27
In our opinion, the Nanocam M27 is the best small dashcam on the market, especially at this price. The Nanocam M27 is sleekly designed and films at sharp QuadHD resolution. Wifi and GPS are built-in and it can be perfectly used as a parking security system thanks to the automatic parking mode with motion detection and time lapse mode. A 32gb Micro SD card is included as standard and a rear camera and hardwire kit (for parking mode) are optional to order.

AZDome M330
The AZDome M330 is a new dashcam in the lower segment, however, you definitely don't have to compromise on features or quality. This sleek dashcam films in good FullHD resolution and is equipped with Wi-Fi. Despite its compact design, it still has a small 1.0-inch TNT indicator screen, allowing you to see exactly what the dashcam is doing.
The AZDome M330 has a wide viewing angle lens of 170˚ which records a very large area around the car. It supports Micro SD cards up to 128gb, you should always format these in the dashcam before use by pressing and holding the Wifi button for 8 seconds.

DDPai Mini 5
This high-end Mini 5 dashcam from DDPai has won several awards for its design. It is somewhat similar in shape to the AZDome BN03 but it has an even more beautiful design as far as we are concerned. The DDPai Mini 5 also has to make do without an LCD screen and is therefore hardly noticeable in the car. It films in very sharp 4K resolution and is also equipped with Wifi, GPS and a time lapse parking mode. Other advantage is the built-in 64gb eMMC memory which means you no longer need an SD card. Only downside of the Mini 5 is that there is no option for a rear camera.

Gnet G-ON4
Gnet is a South Korean dashcam brand (like BlackVue, iRoad and Thinkware) and market leader in that country. Gnet makes high-end dashcams with Cloud option. The Cloud connection allows you to connect the dashcam to the internet and log in to the camera from anywhere in the world. Another advantage is that you can receive parking mode notifications, for example when someone drives into your car. This G-ON4 is Gnet's flagship model with 4K resolution. It also has a FullHD rear camera and comes very complete.

Garmin Mini 2
We've known Garmin for some time from navigation systems and other car multimedia. For a few years now, Garmin has also entered the dashcam market with a small range of promising cameras. This Mini 2 is the smallest in the range and also one of the smallest dashcams on the market. It films in FullHD and thus has slightly lower image quality than the other dashcams in the list. However, you can easily expand Garmin dashcams with, for example, a CPL filter or OBD power supply to make installation a lot easier. In addition, you can connect multiple Garmin's together to create a network of cameras.
