I have two Hondas with this feature and once you have it, it feels frankly unsafe to drive other cars (even with various other tricks). Once you realize how wide the angle of the camera is you basically never have to turn your head away from looking forwards.

I only wish that it also worked for the left-side mirror as well. My understanding is that Hondas new all electric cars will feature cameras instead of mirrors entirely.

I recently saw a review for a car that offers this feature for left and right mirrors. I believe it was the Polestar, Volvo's new EV brand. They're much pricier than Hondas, but hopefully they'll popularize features like this so that they become common in less expensive vehicles.
The Honda e will have cameras instead of mirrors.
Looks like Honda might be removing it though
