Our Thoughts

CamEye by KENT is certainly not just another dashcam that you would consider just to record the video footage while travelling. The device rather emphasizes on the latest technology to ensure the safety of children and women. Besides personal cars, it can be used on school buses, cabs and logistics vehicles.

Kent CamEye is priced at Rs. 17,999 in India and is available on Amazon.in with a 3-months free subscription. The only downside is that users have to pay a monthly or yearly fee to use the cloud and GPS tracking features after the trial ends. The subscription ranges from Rs. 450 to 600 per month or Rs. 4,500 to 6,000 per year.
