The Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro (model HCA06, from Hero Group’s Hero Electronix) is a small clip-on camera that records your motorcycle or bicycle rides in 2K (2304 x 1296, 1296p) at 30fps, runs on a built-in 2000mAh battery and saves crash footage automatically. It is meant as a riding record, a “dashcam for two-wheelers”, rather than a vlogging action camera, and for that job it looks sensibly specified for Indian commuters.
The short answer: buy it if you want simple, always-on proof of what happened on the road, from an Indian brand. Look elsewhere if you want smooth, shareable adventure footage, a screen, or confirmed GPS logging.
This article is based on Qubo’s official product page and the Amazon.in listing, checked on 17 October 2026, not on hands-on testing. Where the two sources disagree, we say so.
Quick verdict
- Best for: daily motorcycle and scooter commuters, delivery riders and cyclists who want an incident record without fuss
- Skip if: you want stabilised, cinematic ride videos for YouTube or Instagram, or you need a camera you can also use off the bike
- Strengths: 2K/1296p recording, IP66 weather resistance, 2000mAh battery, G-sensor and AI emergency recording, H.265 files that save space, clip-on auto-start
- Limitations: no screen or buttons, microSD card not in the box, field-of-view and GPS claims differ between sources, footage quality not independently verified

The two figures that disagree are worth noting: Qubo’s page lists a 130° field of view while the Amazon.in listing (including its title) says 124°, and the listing mentions GPS and Bluetooth connectivity that Qubo’s own spec table does not. We would treat the official page as the safer reference and not buy this camera expecting GPS speed or route logging unless Qubo confirms it.

What the Bike Cam Pro is designed to do
Think of this as a dashcam that has been shrunk and weather-sealed for two-wheelers. According to the listing, recording starts automatically once you clip the Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro on, and the G-sensor plus what Qubo calls Smart AI Emergency Recording detects a sudden impact and saves that clip as a separate event file so loop recording cannot overwrite it. Qubo markets this as “Proof on Demand”.
Why it matters in practice: in a road dispute or an insurance claim, the most useful clip is the one you did not have to remember to start. Auto-start and event locking are what separate a ride recorder from a general action camera. Whether footage is accepted in any specific claim or dispute depends on the insurer or authority, so treat it as supporting evidence, not a guarantee.
Video quality: what 1296p and H.265 mean for riders
2304 x 1296 is a step above 1080p Full HD. On a ride recorder, the extra pixels help with the details that matter, such as number plates and road signs, although motion, vibration, light and distance affect readability far more than resolution alone. We have not seen footage tested by an independent publication, so we cannot comment on how sharp plates appear at speed.
Qubo lists WDR (wide dynamic range), which helps when you ride from shade into bright sun or face headlights at night. The listing describes “superior low-light video” and uses the phrase “night vision”; neither source mentions infrared LEDs, so expect improved low-light processing rather than true night-vision imaging. Files are saved as MP4 using H.265, a codec that typically needs less storage than older H.264 for similar quality, so your card holds more hours. Some older phones and PCs may need an H.265 (HEVC) codec to play the files.
The field of view is either 124° or 130° depending on the source. Either way, it is wide enough to cover a lane and the vehicles immediately ahead, but narrower than ultra-wide action cameras, which keeps distortion lower and objects in the centre larger.
Battery, storage and weather sealing
The Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro runs on an internal 2000mAh battery. The listing claims up to 270 minutes (4.5 hours) of continuous recording in Smart Saver Mode; Qubo’s page does not state a runtime, so treat 4.5 hours as the best case in a power-saving mode. Real-world runtime will depend on the mode you use, so plan to charge it regularly. Qubo lists a 5V 1A power input and a 1m front cable.
You need to buy a microSD card separately. Qubo’s page mentions “up to 1TB storage” but the Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro limit is not detailed in its spec table, so check the listing or ask Qubo support before buying a very large card. For any continuous-recording camera, a “high endurance” card from a known brand is the sensible choice, because loop recording writes constantly and wears out ordinary cards faster.
IP66 means the Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro is dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets. That covers monsoon rain and dusty highways, but it does not mean the camera is designed to be submerged, so avoid pressure-washing it directly or riding through deep water with it low on the bike.
The app and everyday use
There is no screen and Qubo’s page lists no buttons, so setup, live view, playback and downloads happen in the Qubo Pro app on Android or iOS over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. A three-colour LED shows status, and the camera has a speaker and microphone. This keeps the camera small (90g according to the listing) but means you rely on your phone for everything, including checking that it is actually recording.
How to set it up on a motorcycle or bicycle
- Insert a formatted microSD card and fully charge the camera before the first ride.
- Install the Qubo Pro app, pair the camera over Wi-Fi and set the date and time so clips are correctly stamped.
- Choose a mounting spot with a clear forward view: a flat area on the headlamp cowl, fairing or handlebar area usually works; on a bicycle, the handlebar or stem.
- Clean the surface, apply the included 3M tape and mount, then press firmly and leave it to bond, ideally for several hours before riding.
- Check the live view in the app and angle the lens slightly below the horizon so the road, not the sky, fills most of the frame.
- Learn where the app stores emergency event clips, so you can find them quickly when you need them.
Who should buy it
The Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro suits riders who want a set-and-forget incident recorder: office commuters on motorcycles or scooters, delivery and courier riders, and cyclists in busy traffic. It also suits buyers who prefer an Indian brand; the listing names Hero Electronix Pvt. Ltd. as the manufacturer and India as the country of origin.
Who should skip it
Skip it if your goal is content. Neither source mentions electronic image stabilisation, and a ride recorder at 30fps is not built for smooth vlogs. Skip it as well if you specifically need GPS speed and location overlays, since Qubo’s official spec table does not confirm GPS, or if you want a camera with a screen and physical controls.
Alternatives worth comparing
- Qubo Dashcam Pro X (2026 Edition): if your main vehicle is a car, Qubo’s 2K dashcam is the four-wheeler equivalent; see our Qubo Dashcam Pro X review.
- Insta360 X4: a 360 action camera with 8K/30fps 360 video, FlowState stabilisation and 360° Horizon Lock according to Insta360. It is built for shareable ride videos, but it is a creative camera, not an auto-start incident recorder.
- DJI Osmo 360: DJI lists 8K/30fps 360 video, 105GB built-in storage and IP68 rating to 10m. Again, a content camera for riders who want cinematic footage rather than an always-on record.
What to check before you order
- Variant: the linked listing is the Smart Bike Cam Pro, model HCA06, sold as a single unit. Confirm the model name on the listing.
- Box contents: the listing says the box includes the camera, a mount, a power cable, a mini quick-start guide and 3M tape. A microSD card is not included.
- Field of view and GPS: if either matters to you, confirm with Qubo before ordering, since the sources disagree.
- Warranty: warranty length is not stated on the product page or listing we checked; read the warranty details on the listing or Qubo’s warranty page and keep your invoice.
- Phone compatibility: you need a phone that can run the Qubo Pro app and connect to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.
If it fits your riding, see the Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro (HCA06) on Amazon.in and buy a high-endurance microSD card with it.
Frequently asked questions
Does the Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro record automatically?
According to the Amazon.in listing, yes. Recording starts when you clip the camera on, and the AI emergency feature saves impact clips as separate event files.
Is the Qubo Bike Cam Pro waterproof?
It is rated IP66, which protects against dust and strong water jets such as heavy rain. It is not described as submersible.
Does it include a memory card?
No. The camera uses a microSD card, which you buy separately.
How long does the battery last?
The listing claims up to 270 minutes (4.5 hours) in Smart Saver Mode from the 2000mAh battery. Qubo’s page does not give a runtime figure.
Does it have GPS?
The Amazon.in listing lists GPS under connectivity, but Qubo’s official spec table does not mention it. Confirm with Qubo before relying on GPS features.
Verdict
The Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro is a focused tool: a weather-sealed 2K recorder that starts itself and protects crash clips. It is not an action camera for creators, and a couple of spec details need confirming, but for riders who simply want a record of every ride, it covers the essentials. Check the current price of the Qubo Smart Bike Cam Pro on Amazon.in.
