It Wouldn't Record AnythingReviewed in the United States
I bought two of these. I believed I was getting a quality dash cam and got one for me and one for my wife. I only opened one and am stuck with it and will send it back to the factory for repairs and then sell it. It won't record anything even though the record button is flashing. It has so many settings on it that I would consider it to be very user unfriendly. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CAMERA. IN FACT, I RECOMMEND NOT BUYING THIS CAMERA UNLESS YOU WANT A PIECE OF JUNK. I'm going to go back to a more user friendly camera like Garmin but I will never trust this brand again.

For the price i paid, the camera and audio are complete garbage. The night vision is putrid, the recording length is just as disgusting. The camera does not mount well AT ALL, and the instructions are lacking.Why I took so long to write this review? Because i wanted to forget about this RIDICULOUS purchase.However, I want to warn everyone to avoid this device.

Added level of security. Easy installation (for me). The great product everyone is saying it is.

I have been playing with this dashcam for a couple of hours and so far it looks very promising. The infrared night vision works well. The inside camera automatically adjusts itself by switching from night -to- day vision, depending on the change of brightness from the background. Overall, the quality of the clips and sound is EXCELLENT after the most recent firmware upgrade. Big THUMP UP for the bright colorful images, and easy setting.There are a few other things that I would like to recommend VANTRUE to change if possible. ( Sorry, I am very picky on choosing my product)1. I just wish that VANTRUE can upgrade the resolution of the front camera so that it can still go at least as high as 2560x1440P even when the inside cam is ON; this helps a lot when you encounter a hit&run incident where the front cam can capture the license plate from far field. Within a near-field distance, the cam works well though; I can see all the characters/numbers of the plates.2. If VANTRUE can provide different windshield-mounting materials other than the suction cups; this product would be even better because I know that all of those suction cups won't last long. Eventually, the dash-cam will fall off the windshield and hit my dashboard and/or other fragile stuff in my car. Please be mindful of providing good mounting materials that can withstand hot summer.3. Last but not least, I am looking forward to an upgrade from using Lithium Polymer built-in battery to a supercapacitor for this cam as it helps extending the lifespan of the product. YAY! more satisfaction for the customers :).Thank you very much for providing us a very useful , high quality dash-cam! :).P/S: I will update my reviews as time goes by to see how the product works in a long run.

Overall I love this dash cam. It’s got great picture clarity and is dependable, easy to use, and I got a killer Black Friday deal. My only slight issue is that the parking feature means the camera needs to be hard wired (which I did) but didn’t realize I’d have to manually put in in parking mode each time I stop the car. Not a deal breaker but can be inconvenient if I forget because then it continuously records and that means the camera is ‘always on’ as I have to turn the camera off manually also if I’m not going to use the car for a day or two. Guess it’s possible my installers didn’t configure something correctly or I’ve missed something in my settings that would address this. Either way I’m happy I have it and feel much more secure driving.

The Vantrue N2 Pro is only my second Dash Cam, the first being the Garmin Speak plus. The Vantrue is far and above from the Garmin in my opinion. The build and feel is solid! The video quality is really good as well. Yes, the Vantrue N2 Pro cost a bit more, but really worth the money for what you are getting in features.Favorite Features:- Auto Start/Stop- Night Vision Video (looks great)- Dual Cameras with separate video recording files ( Forward Facing and Cabin)I found the mounting hardware to work well after using this setup for about a month. No issues with it coming down off of the windshield. The camera does not come with the required SD Card, however that’s easy enough to add to your cart when purchasing the camera. I chose the Samsung 256GB 100MB/s (U3) MicroSDXC EVO Select Memory Card with Full-Size Adapter (MB-ME256GA/AM), which has working as expected no issues.If you are looking for a camera that will last you for a good while with no problems, I think this is one to seriously consider.

Got this last night and used it immediately as i drive for lyft. The interior camera works fine. Mostly everything in my subsru impreza was visible. The front facing camera was utterly useless for getting license plates. I drove for six hours last night in the dark. Upon reviewing the front video, i found that instead of being able to read license plates, they were just a glowing white box. For a $200 camera there should be some ability. Im disappointed because i picked this over waiting longer to replace my last dash cam. Again the jnterior cam was fine, the front facing could not handle night time driving.

So, I got this dash cam for my P2P job and I mounted on the front windshield under the review mirror. About 2 weeks latter while enroute to pick up a consumer I was rear ended. The camera captured everything and when reviewing the footage, I could see the car that rear ended me (which really helped with the insurance claim). It has great exterior and interior cameras with very good picture quality in both day and night vision.

I really like this dash cam and it’s really neat that you can have proof that you were wearing your seatbelt or that you were paying attention in case something were to happen. This one even has where you can put your license plate number for video purposes. It’s a lot better than all the other dash cams I’ve tried out. One thing that is leaving me not to give 5 stars is that either I got a used product whenever I paid for a new one or something happened in QC. Not sure why but there’s a chip in one of the buttons that I noticed immediately from opening the box.

I thought it would record inside and out the whole car but it's too bad it doesnt. 1 star camera :(

The camera itself looks good and appears to work as advertised. however, I wasn't able to actually see the quality of the footage, because my Mac OS couldn't open the file. I tried using multiple media converters and still no luck. As far as the GPS system is concerned, the software is very outdated! and I couldn't locate the GPS signal on the map, which for some reason it shows my car's location somewhere in London. After all the frustration, I tried going the the manufacture's website and there's no type of instructions or step-by-step guides to extract footage or locate the GPS signal.

The M bottom doesn’t work. I can’t access the menu. Also it seems that the internal battery is dead. So it lost the actual date.I’m very disappointed.

the video is amazing and the night vision works really good! the only thing I wish was better is the ability to see license plates at night. It's lacking in that. I've only used it once so far so I'll have to see if it becomes better with settings adjustment. Other than that, I really like it and I'd recommend it!Here's a video I made with it: https://youtu.be/klzV84CWj3c

Very durable, records while vehicle is in motion, stops recording and saves storage on mini sd card while parked. Night vision works only when you have the dual camera mode on with only the inside vehicle one with night vision

This camera is definite a must have if drive Uber or Lyft! Great recording video quality as well as picture! The camera is extremely easy to set up specially with the clip on power adapter. Easy to detached if you need to put the camera away. Even if you're not an Uber or Lyft driver, it's amazing camera for every day recording! The dash cam has the option to record at 1440p if you only use the front camera! Overall I am very satisfy with this dash camera!

I've been using a dashcam for over 10 years in my car, and change to a new one every few years as the technology for the dashcam gets better and better every year. The main factors I look for in a dashcam are picture quality, nighttime quality, and form factor. Besides Blackvue, this Vantrue N2 Pro is perfect for everyday needs (especially when it's on sale for ~170). Because N2 Pro is very similar to the Blackvue 750S but at at much lower price, I'll offer my review on both.As for N2 Pro, I'm actually impressed by its functions and quality compared to most the dashcam out there. Because it uses a "tube" style form factor (which Blackvue is known for), it's easier to mount without blocking driver's vision. I installed it near the rear view mirror, so that it doesn't obstruct my front view when driving. Nowadays, most dashcam are capable of recording clear images during daytime. The N2 Pro is no exception. But when it comes to night time recording, which is what people need the most, this cam performs greatly. Even in low outside light, the video still came out clear. 1080p@60fps really makes a difference as well. Usually most cheap dashcam doesn't support full HD @60fps, and this is importantly when driving and recording simultaneously. Because of the dual camera/recording function, I recommend to get at least 64GB of SD card, as well as it supports at least v10 or U1 video recording rating. I personally recommend the Samsung Evo Select.Compared to the Blackvue, this is breakdown:-750S costs $260+, N2 Pro is around $170 (and lower during holiday sale)-750S is more sleek and discreet. N2 Pro is slightly bigger but not by much.-both support 1080p @60 fps. (N2 Pro says it supports 1440p@30 fps, but I would NOT recommend it)-both has parking monitoring feature, but I haven't used it since it can drain the battery-750S has built in Wifi and GPS which can be very helpful, especially it has car speed recorded (In case you're framed for speeding but you're not)-750s doesn't have built-in screen. To view video, you need to connect it to your phone thru wifi (no internet needed though)-N2 Pro has built-in screen, which can be helpful in case you need to view the video right away without phone. Better for less technical users.-N2 Pro has built-in inside camera that's meant more for taxi/uber. Not really needed for average user-N2 Pro has voice recording which can be useful as evidence if needed.I still love my Blackvue, but the N2 Pro is perfect for the second car.

I can't believe it took me 5 years to select a dash cam! Saw this one many times, but just didn't know..... So GLAD I just "pulled the trigger" and bought this Vantrue Pick!

Two Stars only because the quality is great, today my brother has a car accident and the stupid camera didn’t record the moment it happened, the most critical feature it’s supposed to be for it completely FAILED Big time.. now to arbitrate with the insurances because I have no video proof!!! Thanks a lot N2Pro!!!!

Great dash cam for the price. A little trouble getting date stamp correct. Little help from YouTube and it was good to go.
binku19
for 200 you’d think the dash cam would come with decent suction cups that sticks to the window. After a week it started to fall off constantly. Windows are clean and installation was done correct. Probably best to get the cams that glue on instead.

I have tried 2 other dash cams, and I was not satisfied with either. Both were below $100 and highly rated on Vantrue. The best part about the previous 2 cams was the hassle-free return policy with Vantrue. That being said, I bit the bullet and spent substantially more on this dash cam, and this is what I found.This dash cam is around $200.00, and I am running the Vantrue 128gb memory card in it.(+):The hook up is good, and it's a suction-cup mount.The cam offers a 170 degree field of view, and this works great. It captures vehicles on my vehicle's side, so there is plenty of film if they were to attempt to enter into my lane w/o enough room.I haven't had an issue with the mount not holding place, but it does move easily if trying to remove the memory card.This cam actually does the automatic looping, so my previous recordings are automatically overwritten.It's small and can be hidden behind the inside mirror. I don't utilize the reverse cam on it.The power cord plugs into the mount and not the camera.(-):This dash cam costed around $200.00, and you can seldomly read license plate numbers. While the picture is vivid, the sun has to be just right in the sky for you to read anything.Whether at night or during the day, even speed limit signs are a big blur.I have found this to be similar with the lesser expensive cameras. Therefore, I'm guessing a dash cam's purpose is to just catch another vehicle in the act, and if it is a hit and run, you may need to chase the other vehicle down; b/c this camera is not going to legibly record the license plate number.The door to remove the memory card, or plug in the usb cord, is much to be desired.If you're driving down a pitch black road, the recorded picture will be pitch black.In short, this camera is expensive. While the picture is vivid, reading signs and license plates of other vehicles, especially those behind which one may be stopped, is near impossible unless the sun is at a rare angle. I'm burned out on trying to find a dash cam that works as expected, so since this one meets most of my requirements, I'm going to keep it. I do know others who have the lesser expensive Vantrues, and they are very happy with theirs. Still not able to read a license plate, but happy. I have also heard their customer service, while all over email, is on point. I have yet to experience their customer service, but that is what I have heard.**Update: I have had this camera for 1 year and it is looping and recording as expected. I have not been able to read any license plates and the screen is too small to see what’s going on during playback. In order to watch the recordings, you have to pull the card out-you can’t just hook the camera up to a computer or TV and watch the recordings via the charging cable.While the camera is competitively prices around $100.00 right now, I would not pay $200.00 for this camera again. It is good in many areas, but the negatives and not being able to read license plates during a hit and run do not justify a $200 bill for this device.

This is an awesome dash camera. Easy to set up and SD card is easy to format. I’m still collecting all the videos that I want to share but at this time so far it is an excellent dash camera.

I used for daylight and the night, it’s have a great pic quality also very good night vision.

It has a parking mode but you are not supposed to leave it exposed to the sun because of heat. The battery got busted and the Cameron does not work properly any more.

This camera has great video quality during daytime and at night. The video is smooth and crystal clear. I love the rotation mount and the location of the buttons. This is one of the best dual dash cam on the market. It's that good.

I have 2 dashcams by vantrue. Totally worth it. Do not wait until you're in a accident to buy a dash cam. I have 3 dash cams by other companies and the're unreliable. I have the R2 and N2 PRO. Definitely worth it plus the customer service is awesome. Make sure you register the serial number for a extended warranty!

Highly Recommended, But Don't Purchase if You Live in South FloridaReviewed in the United States
Fantastic camera while it lasted! Unfortunately, when you live in Miami, Florida, the incredible high temperatures will cause your camera to overheat and become defective. I now have a $200.00 paper weight...I will admit, before the heat fried it, I loved everything about dashcam. If you do not live in high temperature zones, I highly recommend this dashcam! I would definitely purchase another one if not for the heat. Very clear playbacks, both front and rear cameras.

This unit factory resets the time every time i record. This really bothers me! It's hard to go in and see video base on the time since it keeps resetting after the car shut off. This has been happening for over a year, I just finally decided to cry about it.Time stamp: 0/10Video Quality 9/10Overall the unit is great but it drives me crazy about the time stamp issue.

The camera is excellent throughout but the cigarette lighter stopped working within two months. Very surprising in such a minor component but troublesome because I cannot find the OEM replacement and the ones available in Vantrue may not fit the slot in the camera. Would love for Vantrue to offer the availability of the charger right Next to the camera on Vantrue.

Perfect camera for Lyft/Uber rideshare drivers. Records interior and exterior. Interior has IR night vision which works fairly well. I drive a toyota sienna minivan which is big, so the IR lights have a little difficulty reaching the 3rd row but it's still visible. If you have a smaller sedan this will not be an issue, you'll be able to see everything in the interior including faces in pitch dark conditions. So if you do most of your Lyft/Uber driving at night this is a must. The sound quality is excellent as well. Exterior camera is excellent even at night. Great quality on the footage, you can read the license plates.I did have an issue with the cameras time/date stamp which was resetting everytime after switching off. I contacted Vantrue customer service and the issue was resolved ASAP.....Excellent Customer Service!Overall I give the camera 4.75 stars and not 5, only because I wish the IR lights for the night vision were just a little stronger. If you are a rideshare driver this camera is a must have.....highly recommend it.

I just dont have words. The first thing which I like is the size and design. It's pretty compact. Quality is much more better than I expected even in the night. Parking assist and motion sensors are add ins. I wasn't expecting all the features it comes with at this price. The camera recording the cabin has night vision too which is pretty awesome. Worth the price.

I purchased this camera for uber/lyft driving, as well as for personal use for my vehicle. The image quality of both front and rear facing cameras is excellent. The user controls are simple to use and the device setup was very easy. The size of the device is very small and it does not obstruct my view through the windshield. I also really like the parking mode, which monitors my vehicle when I am away. Overall I really like this camera.

After a long time considering buying a dash cam, I decided to go for this one. Not the cheapest, but you usually get what you pay for, and I needed something reliable. I also ordered the GPS mount (if I'm making the investment, I want to be covered as much as possible) and the OBD wiring (very easy to install. A lot better that hardwiring directly from the battery.) and I'm very happy with the results. The video looks just great on my Mac Book Pro (day or night). I had a couple of questions and customer service was fast and very professional. I've been using it for a few weeks now with no issues. Overall, I'm very happy I chose this camera and the additional equipment, even if I had to pay more. Well worth it!

Bought this a few months ago. So far, so good. It was easy to set up. I bought the Samsung memory card for it, as suggested, and have had no issues. Picture quality looks good. Night vision could be a little better, but that's about it. If you're looking for a solid dual dashcam, you'll be satisfied with the N2 Pro.

So, I've been using this camera for a little while now and I was comparing it to another camera that I have and I must say, this one is 10x better overall. The night vision is better and more clear, the day time recording is clearer, even though both cameras are supposedly 1080p. The sound is better too. Overall, I love this camera and want to purchase another for my wife's care. I do drive for Uber & Lyft and a lot of the footage I have isn't able to be uploaded, but I will update my review in the next few days with the video of daytime and nighttime usage. So, if you're looking for a quality dual camera dash camera, this is definitely the way to go! Buy it now!

Daytime camera is adequate with over-saturated color. Night time quality is sub par to poor. It won't read a micro SD card formatted in a Windows 10 computer. It has to be formatted in the camera. The camera body is well designed with reliable mounting system. Overall I was disappointed with its low-light quality video.

Had this dashcam since July 2018 and it finally crapped out on me. It’s very reliable during the first year but then it started to go back to factory reset whenever I start my car. Such a hassle setting it to the correct time and date whenever I start my car. Probably it’s time for me to buy a better one than buying a new Vantrue cam.
Jfiddy5
Awesome dash cam. I did plenty of research before purchasing. I have wanted a dash cam for years for all those “what ifs” and for anything interesting that could happen in front of my vehicle. The quality of the video is great. Even night time. I love how the power cord plugs into the actual suction base itself since it makes it much easier to conceal the wire. I definitely have a much better sense of security while driving now. I like how the cigarette light plug has a USB port on the back so while it is plugged in you can also charge your phone in the same outlet. The inside facing camera is a major plus. My only complaints are: due to my windows being heavily tinted, the night vision comes on inside while the sun is still up in the evening but I would assume that it’s smart enough to know if it’s too dark, it will change accordingly. My main issue and complaint even though I purchased the cam knowing this - after having the cam for 6 months I really wish it would either wirelessly connect to my phone or laptop to retrieve the videos. This would make my life so much easier. You have to remove the memory card and insert it into a computer to retrieve the videos. Due to this I usually unintentionally move the camera from the position where it should be while trying to remove the SD card. In the event of an accident where I would need to show the police a video, it would be amazing to be able to immediately wirelessly transfer the videos to my phone. Unfortunately I would have had to spend a good bit more on a cam to get this feature. I can definitely deal with the issue but it would make my life much easier if this feature was included. I was fully aware that it did not include this feature and did not think it would be an issue but now months into using it, I have realized how much it would help if the cam was capable of this. This camera does not include GPS as some others do. So basically it doesn’t know where I am at or how fast I am going as this is not really much of a concern for me. The park feature is nice. It will sense that you are not moving and will go into standby until it detects motion or movement in or around my vehicle. Very helpful in the event someone hits my vehicle in a parking lot. I do recommend this dash cam. Do your research to make sure your getting everything you want prior to purchasing.

Love my dash cam, however after just 6 months the suction cup mount keeps falling off. This is really frustrating because it is now happening 3 or 4 times a day. I bought the hardwire kit and it works great because I don’t have to worry about charging the camera, it automatically turns on and starts recording when I start my car and turns off when the car turns off.

Very impressed with this dash cam! Solid unit, quality build. Very easy to set up, and easy to connect to computer to review video files. I’m also using the GPS mount, which is a must have in my opinion. At the lowest video quality setting, the video quality is very nice!Two suggestions: 1) include a soft cloth pouch to carry the dash cam, or to store it in a console or glove box without scratching the camera lenses, and 2) make a plastic molded clamshell case to store the dash cam. Sell it as an accessory. Excellent interior night vision. I haven’t found any downsides yet.

Below, you will be able to see my old review to help assist you in your purchasing decision. Needless to say, with the olive branch handed to me after my review was released, I did decide it was worth coming on to revise my viewpoint of the Vantrue N2 Pro.They were very quick to send me a replacement, once I was able to fish their emails out of my spam folder. I do understand that there are some things I could have done differently to remediate this quicker on my part. Fortunately, the Vantrue staff were fairly understanding of my shortcomings.The replacement camera, as it stands now, is working properly. The battery has yet to fail on this product, though I will certainly be keeping a close eye on it from now on. The video it produces is of good quality, and the night vision works quite well in my car. Storage is overwritten seamlessly and it is very low maintenance.-------------------------------------------------------------------OLD REVIEW:I drive for Uber and Lyft. The importance of a reliable dashcam that will record every time with RELIABLE DATE INFORMATION is absolutely essential in the event of false claims, crashes, or even lawsuits.Unfortunately, this camera does not provide this in the least. After only a few months of operation, I noticed the camera would write the most recent video with the date 1/1/2018. After reviewing the footage, the on-screen timestamp also displays this inaccurate date.After much diagnosis, I concluded that it was a problem with the battery, and it failing to save the date information every time it would power off. Kind of an important feature when, you know, you turn your car off frequently!With how bad this camera treats footage, their customer support treats customers far FAR worse. 5 separate emails to their "critical care customer support" email resulted in a grand total of 0 replies. Calling their office only resulted in quite a few long-distance call charges (their phone is based in the UK), countless robotic voice menus, and hours of holding for NOTHING.Do yourself a favor. Stay AS FAR AWAY FROM THIS CAMERA as possible, unless you want to literally light $200 on fire.
Safety matters. We believe a dash cam with top quality and strong performance is very necessary for every vehicle driver nowadays. That's what we do at VANTRUE, developing high end dash cams and providing top level services.
