With a Nexar Connect LTE Plan, the Nexar beam2 mini lets you remotely access your video feed and receive real-time emergency alerts for collisions or parking incidents, ensuring you're always connected to your vehicle.

Can I upgrade the Nexar beam2 mini's internal memory if I need more space?

No, the internal memory of the Nexar beam2 mini cannot be upgraded or reconfigured. We strongly discourage opening the dash cam to alter the internal memory, as this will void your warranty. If you need more storage, consider purchasing a model with a higher memory capacity.
