Honestly the product is great. No complaints here. Set up was so easy as well. Took me 20 mins to set up on the first vehicle and 10 mins for the 2nd one. Quality is more than good enough!

Really awesome so far. Was looking for a multi-channel camera with decent image quality and so far this camera delivers.

I’m about a month into using this camera which first of all was very easy to install and secondly the quality of picture come through very clear. I travel A lot in my truck and it helps protecting me from these crazy drivers here in Colorado. I probably will buy two more for my company van and for my wife’s car. Very good quality and would highly recommend this camera.

I specifically got this camera specifically for the 3 camera views. I’ve had it for a year no problems. Recently my camera went out whenever I would plug in the adapter cable/car charger. After various trouble shooting, I’ve narrowed it down to the car charger cable. I contacted Vantrue via their website. Although they appear to be located overseas, they have been quick to respond. They sent me a new car charger free of charge.

Camera quality is good. No issues with the video. Easy to set up.However, the mount has gotten loose after a while and doesn’t maintain its position. So now I can’t maintain a view with my hood in the picture. Video attached.The suction cup has also fallen off a few times. I live in Southern California. So it’s decently hot but not like Texas hot or anything.

I like the size, it's out of the way, and all 3 cameras all show up on the screen very clearly.

Bought the N4 for my wife's new Volvo. Used the hardware kit as well.The install was straight forward and for the most part easy.The video is clear and easy to see. Over all a very happy experience.Though I hope she is never in a position to need this video, I'm glad to have it vavalable.Couple of items that I would like to share:* The hardware kit is great, but trying to figure out which fuse to replace feels like a crapshoot. I chose the phone charger pad. but I'm fairly sure it turns off when the car turns off (the C40 does not have an on/off button. it just sort of decides when it's on or off) - not the N4 fault* Finding a ground near the interior fuse box on a Volvo is tough* The video required I purchase a new Codex from Microsoft - $0.99 so not a bank breaker.* Video is only available manually you have to bring the card or camera inside.It is a a great camera and setup is easy.

We purchased the Vantrue N4 camera system for our family commute vehicle. We live in a state with notoriously bad drivers and needed a camera system to provide protection and safety for our family from dishonest accidents. Furthermore, we see it as a means to help others we witness in accidents. The front-cabin-rear camera system itself is very user friendly, customizable, easy to install (took me 15 min), and has high-resolution video recording. Also, I really like that once you get it initially setup, it pretty much operates autonomously (turning on and off with the vehicle). Keep in mind that you will need to provide your own high-speed, U3 microSD. Overall, we are very happy with our purchase and highly recommend it to others looking for a complete "dash cam" system!

I replaced a (wildly) expensive and (stupidly) unreliable 2-channel Blackvue dashcam with this and I couldn't be more please. Installation was simple. 45 minutes tops, most of which was spent fussing with running the cable through the existing harness in my car's hatch. The only other real quibble you might run into is positioning the main front/interior camera; keeping it discrete and out of your line of sight while allowing the interior camera to see the actual car interior will depend a lot on your car's design.At this price point you're not going to find a better solution. People who want constant 4K resolution from three cameras running simultaneously with onboard wifi for under $250 will remain perpetually disappointed so ignore them and focus on what you will get. A neatly integrated unit with USB-C as the standard (no fussy proprietary power or data connections), embedded GPS, high-resolution cameras all around (more than adequate for any possible need to introduce video as evidence), and a user interface that's stupid simple. After installation it took me about two minutes to understand the interface and set the date, time, and features I wanted. The included trim removal tool was a nice and helpful touch for installation.If I have one quibble it's a minor one relating to the suction cup mount. I'd like it better if the arms attached to the universal joint were a tad shorter, but the suction cup has held up brilliantly, and adjustments of the primary unit are a cinch. Like I said, a (very) minor quibble.Picture quality on all three cameras is more than acceptable and the display, while small-ish, makes adjusting the frame on the fly fast and simple.

I like the quality of the camera on everything but didn't like it doesn't have wifi and GPS which should be bought separately.

Installation (without hardwiring) was pretty easy, but required a little bit of patience. Once installed, the N4 works seamlessly and you never have to think about. Great video quality from both front and rear cameras.

Great investment to have protection while you drive. I used the previous model, the N2 pro for 2 years as an Uber and Lyft driver and it's been awesome. The N4 is very much like the N2 pro except it has higher quality cameras and an extra camera in the rearview which makes a big difference. With higher quality, it has no problem capturing license plates day or night. The wide dynamic range has improved giving you more view of the sides of your car. The night vision works better than ever and now has an option to toggle it on or off if you don't like the black and white look. The suction cup mount is very strong with greater suction than before. The instruction manual and menu on the device are really easy to use. Even the attention to detail on the little things such as the box and packaging is great. You can't beat this 3 channel dashcam for the price.

I totally invested into my car with this expensive $300 dash cam after getting into an accident where the other driver chased me across 5 lanes on I95 after I got in front of her in the HOV lane. She proceeded to throw objects at my car. We ended up colliding as I was trying to get off the ramp. She then began looking to see if I had a dash cam, after which she took pictures of my car, and tried to claim bodily injuries and say I hit her the next day. Come find out she was driving someone else’s car, and doesn’t have insurance. The owner of the vehicle does.Needless to say, my windows were tinted immediately after my car was repaired, and I invested in an EXCELLENT dash cam with amazing video quality. I also wanted 24 hour parking mode, so I would know I’m protected especially living in an apartment complex. Something like that had NEVER happened to me before, but I learned that when people don’t have insurance, then tend to try to take you for everything you have when you have good coverage.Im still in the middle of it with the insurance company, but I 1000 % feel better with my dash cam that records all three cabins at once.Anyways, I had my car hardwired, which was a little difficult, but with the help of some YouTube videos and my owner’s manual, i was able to hardwire my dash cam to an external battery (cell link Neo) which is hardwired to my car, so basically I don’t have to worry about burning my car battery because the external battery is utilized, and charges when my car is on only.Listen, I’m not tech savvy. I’m a 27 year old female nurse who lives alone with her two dogs. Makeup, sleep and food are my hobbies. I was able to hide the wires in the pillars and weather stripping of my car so that they aren’t visible. I even connected the back camera to the front, so you don’t see wires poking out there either.I will upload pics later. I have a 2015 Toyota RAV4 for reference.Btw: the only real issue I ran into was trying to figure out the fuse issue with my car. For some reason the battery wouldn’t charge from the car. With the help of my brother, we found out that I was missing a fuse (fog light) for my car. We ended up not using the external hard wire kit from Vantrue (not needed), and only used the kit from Cell Link.I was also able to conceal the battery under the drivers seat, and I hid those wires in the trimming as well.Literally nothing sticks out but the two cameras themselves.My car feels armored and awesome!

I'm not a nerd, so I won't offer detailed technical info in this review. All 3 cameras work very well (front, rear & inside). They all give very good resolution when you download the clips to view. At night the inside camera's IR feature is excellent! The view to the rear & inside cameras are displayed in small rectangular screen on the upper right & left of the big screen. Features in "Settings" take a bit to get used to, but you'll get the hang of it; and there are lots of features. I have it professionally installed & the wiring is well hidden; I also have the power cord hard-wired to the battery, therefore, the technician installed a fuse to protect the camera (kudos!). I particularly like this feature which I've programmed: camera turns on, then the screen will go dark after 5 minutes (to save shelf life of the screen); I don't need the screen to stay on all the time! The suction cup is excellent; it has yet to come off the windscreen since I've put it on weeks ago; & I don't think it will. I have another brand of dash cam in my other car & that aftermarket suction cup (i.e. didn't come with the original camera) would come off eventually. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this purchase.

A couple of years ago I decided to purchase a dash cam however I did not know much about them. After researching them and deciding on what features were a necessity, I made a purchase. Actually, I made several purchases and bought the dash cams that I had narrowed my search down to. I tested each of them and decided that the Vantrue N2 Pro was the best dash cam for me and I have been happy ever since. When I recently found out that Vantrue had released the N4 I decided to upgrade.The new N4 is similar to the N2 and has a lot of the same great features along with several new features. Here is my review of my personal PRO’s and CON’s of the new Vantrue N4.PROS:The N4 has three cameras which provide me with a lot more options. The N2 has two cameras (a front-facing camera and an interior camera) but the new design of the N4 received an upgrade of a third camera (a front-facing camera, an interior camera, and an external corded rearview camera). The quality of the cameras and the recorded video is great just like all of Vantrue’s dash cams.The LCD screen on the new N4 is almost twice the size of the screen of the N2. This is great because it makes viewing the menu as well as recorded footage a lot easier.The new N4 accepts a larger memory card. Both the N2 and the N4 use micro SD cards to save recorded footage but the N2 has a max of 64G whereas the new N4 has a max of 256G which allows a lot more recorded footage to be saved.The N4 is designed to make the micro SD card more accessible. The N2 has a rubber-like cover that has to be lifted in order to reach the micro SD card slot but Vantrue got rid of that on the N4 and now the micro SD card slot is a lot easier to access.CONS:The menu is on the top of the N4 unlike the buttons of the N2 which are on the bottom. At first, the top-mounted buttons might look and/or feel normal but I prefer the bottom-mounted buttons. This is because I mount my dash cam directly under my rearview mirror in an attempt to make it less noticeable. This also makes the space between the bottom of the rearview mirror and the top of the dash cam less accessible. This affects me mainly while driving if I need to press the emergency lock/record button, pause the recording, or pause the audio because I have a slightly harder time reaching the top-mounted N4 buttons. This is a minor issue and bottom buttons are just something that I personally prefer to have.The N2 has a feature that allows me to press a button and quickly turn off the LCD screen if I do not want to wait for it to auto-shutoff. So far, I have not found a way to do this with the N4. Again, this is just something that I would prefer to have.The N4 is currently not fully compatible with the Vantrue mirror mount which will only affect a very small percentage of people. Vantrue makes three mounts: a suction-cup mount, an adhesive mount, and a mirror mount. The mirror mount is the only mount that does not have a power port. Since it does not have a power port the dual-purpose port on the side of the N4 which is normally used for the rearview camera needs to instead be used for powering the unit. I have been in contact with Vantrue and I am hoping that they make some type of adapter. I am currently using the Vantrue adhesive mount which seems to be working fine.In conclusion, the Vantrue N4 is a great dash cam and regardless of what I consider to be CONS, I would still consider it my top dash cam pick. For people who only want two cameras, I would still suggest purchasing the N4 and just not use the third camera. This way you will always have that option if you choose to take advantage of it in the future.As a side note for Vantrue, I hope to see the company design a dash cam that connects to your phone via WIFI and saves the footage by uploading it to the cloud. Doing this for all footage would probably be too much but being able to do this for emergency lock/record footage would be great. Maybe even a feature with extended WiFI (similar to what DJI drones use) to access live footage when using parking mode for shock or motion alarms. I can see this being beneficial if someone breaks into the vehicle and takes the dash cam or if a person is away from the car and the alarm goes off. A person would be able to almost instantly access and view the footage of the event. Hopefully, this is a feature that Vantrue can develop for future dash cams.

My car got hit while it was parked for the 2nd time so I decided to buy the fanciest camera to capture all that happens to my car. Today my rear car window got smashed overnighted but I am not upset because I have a $300 dollar dash camera. I go to check the footage and nothing was recorded. I had nothing recorded after Saturday. I seriously can't believe this.If your looking for camera to capture what happens while you drive then get this. If you need it for more, this isn't the one for you. I would return it but my return date was 7 days ago. So this is camera number 2 that has failed me.

This is a really nice camera, great video quality. If I had to do it over, I might elect to get the lower priced model that does not have the rear camera. I dont see a lot of value in having a rear camera right now, but that could change if I get rear ended or someting.
Cyprian Skiba
Editing my previous review: it has been a few days from being a year and my camera has died. It failed to turn on. So disappointing. It’s an added frustration to the already defective window suction mount that always falls off in hot and cold weather no matter how you stick it in. Quality of filming is great, just not very well engineered for function and longevity.Quality of the picture is very nice. Very easy setup. Love that the power cable plugs into the mount and not the camera which allows easy camera removal and placement into another car. I like that it has a capacitor and don’t have to worry about the camera overheating and battery exploding. Only wish is that it had WiFi to pull footage off it. Otherwise great product!

Works perfectly. No complaints so far. Everything is pretty straight forward.

I bought this camera and unlike everyone else, I actually purchased and self installed the hardwire kit in order to use the advertised parking mode feature. This review is from the perspective of parking mode, which was all I cared about since my car was recently vandalized in the night while parked outside my residence.With the exception of parking mode - It's a great camera. As a driving dash camera, which is how 99% of consumers will use this camera (because many people are not handy enough to install the hardwire kit) it's a great camera, especially for the price. My only critique from a driving perspective is that 1440p actually is more of a 1080p quality, due to the obviously low bit rate of the video. 1080p is more like 720p. But I have a trained eye. Most consumers and average Joes don't, so you will be 100% satisfied.Cons:Parking Mode - This is the only reason I wanted this dash cam, because of the 3 channel in parking mode. I'll just list the problems I have with my unit. This is not how it is supposed to function based on the instruction manual.1. Each event that is captured via the motion sensor in parking mode, for some strange reason, lasts only 10 seconds. If someone is walking their dog near my vehicle for example, the camera will pick up the motion a good distance away, and as the person moves closer to my car, it will stop recording after the 10th second, completely ignoring anything happening beyond that point. That is crazy to me2. The camera is supposed to exit parking mode and switch to normal mode automatically once the car is started and driving commences. Not mine, when I start driving from parking mode, the camera doesn't know what to do, it stops recording but stays on, and it loses connection to the rear camera. I have to manually reboot the system for everything to work correctly every time I start driving from parking mode.3. When I check the saved recordings in parking mode, all of the interior camera files are corrupted. Only the front and rear files can be viewed. I just don't get it. It worked correctly for the first few days. I may have to return this.

This camera has exceptional video quality and I’ve enjoyed having it so far. I had a minor issue with a cord but it was resolved quickly with customer service via Instagram the same day I messaged them about it. If you’re looking for a great camera to cover both the front and rear of your vehicle, I would highly recommend the Vantrue N4!

I am thrilled with this dash cam. I have bought three so that I can have one in each of my vehicles. I am able to read license plates from the front and rear camera. The inside camera offers a nice wide field of view, so it will help during police stops. The equipment is well made, easy to install and operate. I recommend that you also use the GPS module and the Vantrue hardwire kit. If you are looking for a dash cam this one is hard to beat and well worth the money.

By far the best dash camera I have ever used. The front, rear, and interior quality is perfect. day time and night time. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a dash cam. Setup was very easy and straight forward. Money well spent, now I feel safe knowing I have everything recorded and saved.

I'm one of those people who doesn't like to read instructions for some reason. That being said, the set up was super easy, barely an inconvenience using the quick start guide. Plenty of cable to tuck and hide cables into the headliner, over to and down the door frame molding, then up under the lower front dash section (below steering wheel and above pedals) and plugged in to the 12V accessory plug in.The unit itself is surprisingly light. This is my first dash cam so I don't have anything to compare it to, but the weight, or lack thereof really surprised me. The suction cup is easy to attach to the windshield, and holds well. Adjustments are easy to make, and the resolution is fantastic. Sound records really well also. I'll have to stop making little odd grunting noises when I drive. Didn't even know I did that until watching some video of the cabin.The rear camera I just have laying on something in the back area, under the rear window. I don't want to stick it onto the defrost lines on the window, so I'm looking for something that I can attach it to, that will get it up a little higher for a better view, then set it down, maybe with some velcro so it stays put.The only issue I've had so far is that the last files before removing the sd card to not seem to be playable. It could be me, I'll have to play around with it some more in the coming days and will update if the issue continues, or if I resolve it.Other than that I'm super happy I bought this particular dash cam. Sure it's a little pricey, but worth it imo. Buy once, cry once, as the old axiom goes.

Recently, I purchased N4 dash cam. It seems I have problem with front camera, it doesn't give a clear image. Providing extremely blurry image after 20-30 second. Please let me know if I’m missing something or there is something that I reconfigure.

I've had so many cameras that I lost track. My previous one was a Junsun and it was great but it died immediately as soon as the car turned off.Decided to get a new dash camera, specifically one that saved files. I also got a Vantrue fuse adapter, so that's even more awesome. I'm super super happy with this dash cam so far.It has three cameras. First camera records to the front, second records to the rear, and third records the inside of the vehicle. The inside camera is great for ride-sharing drivers such as Uber and Lyft. The internal camera also has night vision LED lights, which will makes recording passengers much easier. It's also great for recording the sides of the car.The video quality is fantastic. I don't mean "okay". I don't mean "good". It's fantastic. There are multiple "quality settings" to choose from to get the best quality vs space usage on the SD card. In terms of storage, I got a 256 GB card because I plan on having it record in parking mode, so I want to be able to check the stored content after a night of being parked. However, I would get a smaller capacity card if only using it while driving. Additionally, I'm using highest resolution to get the best quality video.The rear camera quality is top notch. I can easily make out license plates on the rear camera. The cabin camera is top notch. The front camera is top notch. Really fantastic.The camera uses a super capacitor instead of a lipo battery, and it's long term, that's much better because lipo batteries will start to lose function over time and in extreme heat of the sun, or extreme cold.The main reason I got this camera is because I wanted to record the car's surrounding, and catch someone if the car was scratched or hit from the side. Front and rear cameras can't do that. This one, which points to the inside of the cabin, with the wide angle, can view the sides of the car.Inside the box, there is a well written manual with easy to follow instructions, but to be honest, I didn't read them too much, since everything is pretty self-explanatory. That said, the instructions and pictures are intuitive and easy to follow.The camera came with a 12V charger, camera, rear camera and cable, usb cable, and window mount.The top of the camera has three large buttons for menu navigation. The side has a microSD card slot, an input for the rear camera USB-C port (also doubles as a way to get videos off the microSD card), a reset button and HD out.The inside-facing camera can be rotated up and down to get better angles of the cabin.Rear-camera mount also rotates up and down to get a better angle of the outside.The rear camera comes with a long cable. I had no problem at all going from the rear of my car to the front.The mount has a really nice turning feature to apply the suction cup to the window.Overall, it was super easy to set up and get it going. Menu system is very intuitive.Also, I got a vantrue fuse splitted to power the camera 24/7. I set up motion capture. Now, when anything moves in front of the camera or the car is bumped, it will record that for me to review later.

I feel much safer having this camera because I know that if I get hit by another vehicle, I have proof of what transpired. It takes very clear video day and night. The unit is very light and I like that it can be turned a little to accommodate the vehicle. Only complaint is that the suction cup isn't the greatest, but my fiancé does not have a problem with his so that could be user error. I used 3m double sided padded tape to stick it to my windshield though and now it works just fine.

I recently upgraded from the VanTrue N2 Pro to the latest VanTrue N4 dash camera. This camera is a 3 cam version, which includes a rear camera, in addition to the front and cabin cams. I find this combination really useful, because I have complete coverage, should anything happen on either end. The video is crisp and clear and installation was a snap. I will continue to update as I use it, but in the short time I have had it, I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed.

I just installed this today. So, I don't have extensive experience with it yet. However, I would like to comment on the fact that you're REQUIRED to use the suction cup mount. You do not have an alternative mounting option as it receives power through the suction cup mount. And, I simply do not like that. I've never had good experiences with them. In fact, this camera fell down three times in the ten minutes I was hanging it. I'm going to try it for a few days, but this is likely going to be returned.

I’ve been an owner of dash cam for years and value not risking any possible blame or fraud in an accident. With my past experience in dash cams, I would have struggles with setting up, installing and then realizing how the video would not be clear. My big struggle was how I felt I was missing coverage aside from blurry videos that barely shown the license plates. When I found Vantrue’s N4, I instantly felt like this was what I was missing. Front camera 1440p, interior and rear were 1080p! The night mode was amazing, I was surprised at how well I could see the details of my car’s interior.As for setup, Vantrue’s N4 is by far the easiest to set up. A huge reason why I took out my old dash cams was because of the confusing menu format and button format. I kept getting confused on what button did what and would always accidentally lock a video clip when I just wanted to stop recording to get into the menu. The Vantrue N4’s menu is clean and easy to understand. The button format is very simple and I was able to go through it without even checking the manual and playing around with it.Installation:Installing the dashcam was a breeze, the suction cup for the front camera was a seller for me as well because I was tired of taking the time to take out the front camera because of the adhesive. With the suction cup mount I can easily take out the dash cam if I want or even upgrade to the GPS tracker in the near future!Now with the N4 in my car, I am glad to know that the videos are crisp and I have coverage for my car from front, interior and rear! If I need to I can relocate the dash cam easily or upgrade it with the GPS module!

Nice upgrade coming from N2 pro.Hopefully will last longer with the capacitor instead of battery in GA heat.

I purchased the Vantrue N2 Pro because it was advertised as a dash cam for Uber & Lyft drivers. Having had a few rowdy passengers as an Uber driver myself, I decided the N2 was the camera for me because it captures both exterior and exterior. The N2 Pro was a great quality camera. The only problem with the N2 Pro was its internal battery. If the camera lost power even for a moment, the date and time would default back to 2018. I purchased the hardwire kit to connect the camera to a hot connection in the fuse box. The camera would still function, but that battery life made it less than perfect. So I decided an upgrade was in order.This brings me to the Vantrue N4 3 Channel camera. I was looking for a new camera that would provide a more stable power supply. I was delighted to learn that Vantrue had created the N4. The N4 doesn't have an internal lithium battery like the N2 Pro. It is super capacitor powered. I purchased the hard wire kit to wire it directly to the fuse box as I had before. However, I haven't had time to do that yet. So the camera shuts off when I turn off the engine. And yet it retains all the settings even after sitting with no power for hours. This is already better than my first camera.All the other features I liked about the N2 Pro are included in the N4. Both cameras are simple to set up. They've improved upon the video quality in the N4. The button controls on the N2 Pro were a little awkward to reach on the bottom of the camera. The N4's buttons are located across the top which makes them easier to see and touch the right ones. The LCD screen on the N4 is a bit larger. I am very pleased with the new Vantrue N4. I highly recommend this camera.I tried to upload a few short videos showing interior and exterior day time and night driving. Apparently the limit is one upload per review.

I compared the N4 with the N2 Pro and made a YouTube video. I think it's highly recommended to get the N4. The inside cabin camera y way better with WDR. You can also view outside without it getting over exposed. Also the main front camera has much better low light capability with its 1.4 aperture. So you get more detail and less noise.

I was in the market for a Dashcam and came across the N4. I was originally going to purchase the N2 Pro, but what pushed me towards N4 was the 3rd camera for recording rear traffic. I now have visibility in the front, rear and interior cabin. Image quality is crisp and clear. The setup process was straight forward. I was able to get everything complete in approximately 10 min.I'm happy with the product and glad I have a tool to record and keep me safe on the road. Vantue's support team is great and they defintely have a return customer!. I would recommend this to my friends and family.

I bought this camera because I drive for Lyft and Uber. This camera has great video quality. It was also very easy to set up! This camera is definitely worth the price!

I bought this dash cam for my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. I love the fact that out of the box, you get a three channel camera (front, rear and interior) plus a display and all sorts of options.In addition to the dash cam, I also purchased the GPS mount, SD card and hard wire kit.As you can see in the video, the recording is extremely high quality. For the purposes of this review, I disabled audio and didn't include the internal video but all work and are excellent.The parts and accessories are all high quality. Everything is packaged professionally and the product comes with full color manuals that explain completely how the product should be installed and how it functions.I'm extremely happy with my purchase and would certainly get it again for another vehicle.

I became a ‘fan’ of Vantrue last year when I had an automobile accident due to the negligence of another driver. It was a major accident totaling my $100,000 Jeep Trackhawk. The Vantrue video that I provided to the police officer and insurance company showed I was not at fault. That was the 2 channel model, I have now bought the 3 channel model and couldn’t be happier! Its even better, it watches inside of the vehicle, the front and the rear. Its another step up in technology over the prior model. Please if you drive a car, you owe it to yourself to buy one of these to provide and eye witness to ‘what happened‘ in the event of an accident. I have tried other models (I own multiple cars) this newest version is my favorite yet!

I like this product. I had cheaper camera, that only recorded what was happening in front of my car. By the nature of my activity, I need a camera that will record not only outside but also inside my car. On YouTube, in reviews of dash cameras, this brand takes one of the leading places. I watched a lot of videos on this topic. It also influenced my choice. This one has a very decent image. I have something to compare with and yes it is. A cheaper camera has a much worse picture, although they claim the quality of full HD, but this is far from the case. The design of camera is actually very nice, I really like it. This camera is more expensive than many others, but those that record the interior of the car are more expensive. I have been using this camera for two weeks now and I am satisfied.

I replace my Vantrue N2 Camera with the Vantrue N4.The only problem I had was with the power cable. Because I had the camera hardwire for the N2 I had to purchase an adapter for the N4. USB Type-C Male to USB Mini-B 5-Pin Female USB 2.0. It work great. I also purchase the Vantrue Memory Chip and GPS so far it has worked great. I will have some additional test video once it been running for a couple of days.

I've had the X1 Dash Cam from Vantrue for about the past two years and finally decided to upgrade and go for a higher quality dash cam. This dash cam records both 1440p and 1080p for the front and rear cameras. The front dash cam will record both the front of the vehicle and also the cabin if you so choose and is held onto the windshield by a suction cup while the rear cam is attached via a sticky pad that attaches to the rear windshield. Currently I have the dash cam just recording the front and rear as I don't have a need for the cabin at the moment, but maybe that will change. Overall the quality is pretty dang good during the day and acceptable at night (still have some tinkering around to do with the settings). I would advise to have someone help setup the rear cam so you can see exactly the angle it's recording before you stick on the dash cam to your windshield. The only thing I would say to be aware of is as you can see in the front picture the front cam is average size so it's not going to blend in your car as you're driving along, but if you don't care about that it's a great product. Vantrue customer service is always extremely helpful and quick to respond to all my questions even about my old X1 dash cam that I no longer use. Overall I would recommend this product to everyone because you never know when some idiot is going to come out of nowhere and hit you and either drive away or claim it was your fault. Invest in your property and yourself with this dash cam.

Excellent dash cam. This is my 3rd Vantrue dash cam, and they all work great. This is the first 3 channel camera I've seen. Great camera for Uber/Lyft/Taxi drivers. Allows you to record out windshield, rear window, and inside vehicle. IR lenses captures all night activity inside vehicle. Can hold up to 256 GB Micro SD card. Would definitely recommend to others. Vantrue makes excellent products.

After spending an hour properly installing the front and rear camera, I turned it on. Within 5 mins, the front camera wire connection started smoking. I pulled the front camera cord out, burning my fingertip in the process, and noticed the connecting spots were melting. I'm returning the product for now, but am willing to give it another chance. Vantrue is sending a replacement. For now, this gets 1 star = DANGEROUS. I'll update this review after testing the replacement soon.UPDATE: The seller gave refunded $30 and sent a replacement. It is now installed and the replacement works well, no additional issues.

Another winner from Vantrue.If you're a rideshare driver or just want complete coverage of your vehicle front back and inside in one package, this is the camera for you.This is an upgrade to me from the N2 Pro's 1080p30fps front and cabin cameras w/night vision.1440p front, 1080p cabin and 1080p rear all running at 30fpsYou can run the cameras in various combinations (front+cabin+rear, front+cabin, front+rear, front only) and with various resolutions from 720p to 1080p up to 2592x1520p(front only mode) the options are nice but if you're looking for a 3 channel camera setup then you're running all 3 at highest resolution which is the 1440x1080x1080.Picture quality is the same great clear detailed image as the n2 pro and better. I'm still experimenting with the exposure settings up and down for day vs night brightness.Night vision in cabin at nighttime sees front and rear passengers well.Audio quality is great and plays over all 3 video recordings in the files. (Bass in music does get blown out a bit with higher volume or bass turned up)Install took me 10-15 minutes to run the wires and hide them in a 17 nissan rouge with plenty of extra wire.Loop recording of infinity, 1, 3, and 5 mins. IR on, off or auto, audio on or off, g sensor high, medium, low, off, parking mode is here also (with $15 hardwire kit sold separately). GPS mount to track location and speed is available also for this camera setup (sold separately)Time, date, mph, license plate, gps and vantrue logo stamps are available to turn on and off in video recordings.The viewfinder shows you a triple view(1 large view with 2 small pip views) of all 3 cameras when the screen is on and you can switch which camera is in the large view.Overall I am highly pleased and impressed again with Vantrues products. I've been running the N2 Pro for over 2 yrs for personal use and driving for Lyft. Now I have even more coverage in the rear, higher resolution out front and over a day or twos recording space with the 256GB microsd card I ordered from Vantrue.Only thing missing is wifi/bluetooth and 60fps+ on all 3 cameras which 1. this is the first 3 channel all in one I've even heard of and would require 3 individual cameras to accomplish 60fpsx3cameras. 2. I'm ok with no wifi/bluetooth as it's faster to transfer data over USB 3 . Also this uses usb c connections, WIN!I really love this company and their products and pricing. Customer service is also A++Take a look at the pictures and videos I've posted also.

Upon order, i received my order earlier than I expected and notified. So hats off for Quickest Delivery even in such Panedemic era. Packaging was excellent with all the equipment individually taken care off. Only thing I wished could be better is bit more longer arm for front camera so we have more room to adjust considering confined space where the rear view mirror blocking inside view little bit. I use this camera primary for rideshare so now I have peace of mind that I am being covered not only from outside but inside as well.
Goobacca
Buy this if you like resetting the camera multiple times per drive because it locks up.
MATTHEW AULICINO
I bought 2 of the front and rear for both of my BMW's, had them professionally installed and they work great.

This video camera was very easy to install and run the wires in my 2015 Ford Explorer Limited. The only thing I would like to see change is the monitor size. With a 2.5" screen it is difficult to see anything on it when you have front, rear and interior views on. I run with front and rear which is a little better but not much.The only other issue I have which isn't the manufacturer's problem, is the rear camera. It workd good and the 3M tape is great but my back window is at an angle so I had to mount the camera to the back hatch to see what is behind me instead of the sky.
Bruce
I bought an extra 512MB memory card and for some reason, this camera, no matter the settings, keeps asking me to re-format my memory card. It seems to only last about 3 days.

The attached video is from the rear camera. I purchased the 256GB micro SD card and it easily stores 48 hours of extremely clear videos from all 3 cameras. I definitely recommend it!

I bought this dash cam because I wanted to previously purchase the N3 but never got to it. My first impression of the camera were great I like the features it had and maybe me liking it was due to my excitement of always wanting a Vantrue dashcam. I was disappointed and realized that this was not the dashcam I wanted when it came time to install it. The camera sat too low on my windshield and did not give discreet look. I then realized that I need a camera that would give me more features. Though you can watch the events on the camera you can not save them immediately to your phone and send to someone. I decided to purchase the VIOFO T130 for which cost about the same but let’s me access the videos on my phone at any moment I like to send it to someone. It’s not a bad camera but if you want something discrete mounted to your windshield this is not the dashcam for you.
Health nut
Easy to use and set up. Transferring files to the computer is easy as well. My only complaint is this annoying and distracting clicking noise it makes. I fastened the suction cup tight. Ports are plugged tight. The screw is tight, yet I keep hearing this cheap plastic clicking sound while the car is in motion. Its distracting and annoying. It's not the camera going into night vision either. It's making the clicking sound at all times. That's my only complaint.
Vantrue Customer
The camera was easy to install and has a great picture. While I was running the cord to the back the cable slipped into a hole in the frame and become irretrievable wedged. I tried for almost an hour to get it unstuck but ended up ruining it. E-mailed the company and they responded right away and I have a new cable on the way, free of charge. This is the camera to get!

So I bought this just incase a dumb driver wanted to play dumb games and win the ultimate dumb prize. Bought a 256gb samsung micro sd and footage lasts about two weeks using 4K 25fps for front and back. Pleasantly surprised with video quality. Installation was easy, suction cup going strong for last two weeks. Highly recommend.

Great quality, easy to install, clear picture and outstanding night version. Highly recommended.

1.The lens range covers the front, rear and interior of the vehicle for complete protection.2.Good resolution, with dedicated playback software, within a certain distance can be identified license plate.3.The small size of the camera can reduce the obstruction of the driver's line of sight.Although not necessarily the best, it can meet the needs of most people.

Due to the sensitivity of the parties involved, I can not upload a video to support what I am saying. VANTRUE dash cam really came through for me. A had an accident caused by an aggressive driver that swiped me from the side. My insurance company adjudicated a 50-50 culpability until I insisted they review the rear/cabin cameras. Then they reversed the adjudication to full culpability on the other driver. His insurance company even agreed upon reviewing the videos.I now own four (4) VANTRUE cameras of supercapacitors: I reside in a hot climate zone (South Texas)
Irvin Pete
Easy setup and works great. It’s great for my first dash cam. When I upgrade I hope to get one that can connect to my smartphone. I recommend this one as a great starter dash cam.
Brian G Wong
I had to pull one side of the headliner to install the rear view camera. I wrapped the wire in foam to prevent rattles. I had to push the wire further in so not to interfere with the airbag curtain. I hung the rearview camera on the headliner from a bracket I made. Your package is thoughtful and complete with the variety of fuse taps. I installed this in a '07 Toyota Tundra Crewmax.
Alexander Beck
Very satisfied with this multi-camera dashcam solution. Front facing picture quality is immaculate, rear camera is small with great picture quality, interior facing camera adds extra layer of security & insurance to show driver wasn't distracted/texting/sleeping/etc. Suction cup has never failed. Wiring is simple. Exporting videos is easy. For the price, you can't beat the Vantrue N4 3-camera setup!Also, really amazing customer service!!! There was a small mistake with my order: the 20ft rear camera cable extension was not included but once I reached out to Vantrue they immediately got back to me and sent me the cable extension!Look no further, this dashcam solution is one of the best out there for the money!

Cam is extremely hot and auto shutdown when in car temp reach 83f to 93f. I ask for replace but the support was asking to test, record and send to Vantrue for exam. Replacement process costs too much time. I gave up.Be aware when you use OBD cable. It does not shutdown the camera when the battery is low as Vantrue advertise. My battery drain out so I have to jump start. I stop to use the OBD cable. I am power the cam by the cigaret lighter.It is a bad product. Dont buy it. I use Viofo on other car for 4 year until now. There is no issue at all. Viofo handle heat very well.

This camera was easy to set up and has provided me with peace of mind in the event of an accident. I haven't had any issues with the camera so far after 6 months of driving. Would recommend!

It's only been a few weeks since I started using this and already the rear camera doesn't work and recording stops unexpectedly and without warning, leaving me in potentially in the dark for undisclosed amounts of time.

I had the n2pro and loved it so I decided to get this for the extra camera for what’s behind me because it could be pretty important. Luckily the back cam in cab cam work great and it’s also great I haven’t had to worry about any footage from behind me or inside the car.So yesterday I stopped at a stoplight and there was a car in the middle of a busy intersection with a guy standing next to it, I assumed his car broke down but unfortunately for some reason that intersection was was where this man chose to commit suicide. I immediately saved the footage to my dash cam and I waited and talked to police told them I caught it on my dash cam and when I tried to show them it looked so bad but I assumed it was just because it was on the little screen (even though the video from the other cameras looked good enough to see details. So I came home to make a copy of it and holy crap I was so embarrassed because I knew I’d have to give this footage to the police and you can hardly see a thing. I was right there and had a great view of the worst thing I’d ever witnessed but that was the first time I’d checked the footage because I made the mistake of trusting this company due to my previous experience with them, the footage was useless and the police saw the footage the next day and looked at me like I’m an idiot for even offering, I knew it was bad but I promised the other officer so I didn’t want to not give it to them but I absolutely regret it now almost as much as I regret putting this dash cam in my car.I’ve had the cam since April, I got it as a gift from my ex and unfortunately I gave her my good n2pro so I can’t return or exchange this. Look into another brand of dash cam.I played the video on my tv and tried to record the part I was referring to with my iPhone 12 Pro and you can still barely see what happened but without zooming in you’d never even know anything happened. I’ll try to upload a normal clip of how poor quality this thing is soon though..

The Vantrue N4 dash cam lives up to its quality. Was a bit apprehensive about the installation even after viewing videos on YouTube but it installed easily and quickly. Needed a longer cord for the rear camera and after contacting the service department was offered a 29.5 foot cable which I gladly accepted, at no cost! To sum up...great product and excellent customer service.
Truong Minh Hong
I left this dashcam uncharged for a week and it still record and working. Glad that the date issues on N1 was fixed on N4. Software is smooth and video quality is good overall

This is our second one purchased. Strong recommendation. We have one for the truck and now one for the motor coach.
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.
