Qubo vs 70mai dash cam comparison

Qubo vs 70mai Dash Cam 2026: Which Is Better for Indian Roads?

>If you're shopping for a dash cam in India, two brands dominate every conversation: <Qubo (by Hero Group) and 70mai (by Xiaomi ecosystem). Both offer excellent products, but they take very different approaches. After testing and selling both brands extensively at our Bangalore store, here's our honest, detailed comparison.

Brand Overview

Feature Qubo 70mai
Parent Company Hero Group (Indian) Xiaomi Ecosystem (Chinese)
Made In India China
Price Range ₹2,990 - ₹7,990 ₹3,490 - ₹12,990
Key Technology Supercapacitor (heat resistant) Lithium battery + Sony STARVIS
Service Network Pan-India Hero service Online-first support

Heat Resistance: Why It Matters in India

This is where Qubo wins decisively. Indian dashboards regularly hit 70-85°C in summer. Qubo uses supercapacitor technology instead of lithium batteries, meaning:

  • No risk of battery swelling or explosion in extreme heat
  • Operates reliably from -20°C to 85°C
  • Longer product lifespan in Indian conditions

70mai uses lithium batteries which are rated for lower temperatures. While they work fine in most conditions, Bangalore's and especially North India's summer heat can degrade lithium batteries faster.

Video Quality Comparison

Qubo Dashcam Pro 4K

  • 4K UHD recording at 30fps
  • Good daytime clarity, reads license plates at medium distance
  • Night vision is adequate but not great
  • WiFi transfer to phone app works reliably

70mai A810 4K HDR

  • 4K HDR with Sony STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensor
  • great daytime AND nighttime footage
  • HDR processing handles glare and shadows brilliantly
  • ADAS features: lane departure warning, collision alert
  • Built-in GPS with speed overlay

Video quality verdict: 70mai wins with its Sony sensor and HDR processing, especially at night. The STARVIS 2 sensor captures details in low light that Qubo's sensor misses.

Budget Category: Qubo 2K vs 70mai A510

Feature Qubo Pro 2K 70mai A510
Resolution 2K (1440p) 2K (1944p) front
Rear Camera Optional add-on Included (1080p)
Sensor Standard Sony STARVIS 2
GPS Built-in Built-in
ADAS No Yes
Price ₹2,990 ₹5,490

The 70mai A510 offers more features per rupee with dual-channel recording included. But if you just need a simple, reliable front camera that handles Indian heat, the Qubo 2K is unbeatable at its price point.

App & Software Experience

Qubo App: Simple, straightforward. WiFi-direct connection to camera. View/download clips. Basic but reliable. Hero's Indian support team responds quickly.

70mai App: More polished with better UI. Supports ADAS settings, firmware updates, parking mode configuration. Cloud backup options available. Larger global community for support.
