From the ceiling to the floor: buy Audi Q7

If you are not allergic to large crossovers or Volkswagen as a whole, then it is probably impossible to dislike Q7. It is clear that the taste and color of all markers are different, but in their class no competitor has such elegance. Large, comfortable, richly equipped, also traveling almost like a passenger … What can sadden the everyday life of a happy owner?

Top 5 Tips for Using an Inexpensive Smartphone in a Car

Choose your mount wisely
Remember the main thing – the longer the attachment foot, the more the smartphone will vibrate while the vehicle is moving. This is important to remember if you plan to use your phone as a registrar. In the case of a long and insufficiently rigid mounting leg, the image taken on the smartphone will “twitch”.
So an unsuccessful holder is a sure guarantee that instead of a clear video you will receive a constantly shaking and blurred picture. In addition, the vibrating body will constantly knock down the focus of the camera, which will also contribute to the recording of “blurry” frames.
