"the 8:7 aspect ratio and 5.3k. That gives me much more freedom when reframing shots."
"Nice crisp clear 4K especially if you keep your streams and upload them to YT later."
"You're not going to get much better quality than BlackVue 700 models."

"Can't see it at all! ... it is 100% hidden away. ... if it wasn't for seeing the bottom .25" of the back camera you wouldn't know it's there"
"Super easy. ... Took about 20-30 minutes"
"Was easily able to run the wires on the top, press it behind the header with the spudger they gave and make it look nice. Then on the liftgate theres a plastic cover panel you can take off to bundle the extra wire and make the drop to the camera really nice and clean."

"I drive a lot at night, and the interior camera does a great job capturing clear footage"
"It has an interior camera that can capture both inside the car and the side windows, which help cover the sides of your vehicle."
"I thought the VanTrue N4 Pro was a great choice ... I can see where the 3 channel inside the vehicle camera would be great for a 20 something who might have to deal with someone lying about them being on their phone while driving."

"The cam lasted me a little over 2 years before it started to crap out on me. ... When it started to go it would just bootloop or the screen would stay black. ... I don't know if it was the heat or that the camera would run 6-8 hours daily that killed it."
"With the N4 I believe you have to buy the whole package if the main camera goes down."
dudeman618 1.0I've been using this one for over a year. [Vantrue](https://a.co/d/cLWGkba) [GPS attachment](https://a.co/d/4zC9D3K)[NYTimes Wirecutter gave it a good review](https://share.google/Lj4t1oFk0QQN8Dvjg)
Jerentropic 1.0I have the Vantrue N4. It took a bit to hide the wiring, maybe an hour's worth of work. It's has lost suction twice in the 18 months I've had it; both times on really hot days (100°+). Vantrue N4 3 Channel Dash Cam,... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083V6K8RH?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Mike20172018 1.0I use [this one.](https://a.co/d/3YvL4tf) It’s been extremely reliable for the past year of ownership. It has a front cam, interior cam with IR for nighttime recordings and rear-view camera for your rear protection. Quality of the video has been great; you can definitely make out the license plate numbers. Also was pretty easy to install as they give you the lever you need to run the cable through your car. And also if you go with this one, make sure to apply the $40 coupon in your cart.
mozzaya 1.0Just bought this one last year and it’s been great so far! https://a.co/d/7boa6ie It captured a baseball sized rock that shattered my front sunroof. Never saw it myself, but after seeing the video it helped with insurance to cover it as non human related, so it didn’t raise my premium. The cables tuck away well in the liners and it’s nearly invisible. Even the one routed all the way to the rear.
SchlumpfLP007 1.0I have the Viofo A229 Pro and can highly recommend it. I also think the A229 Plus will probably be more than enough but if you're willing to spend the money, the Pro is worth it. I watched a (german) comparison video of a few different dashcams and the Thinkware U3000 was one of the worst in terms of license plate identification. The best ones were the A229 Pro and the Vantrue N400. Therefore, don't buy the Thinkware, it's not worth the money.
I think you can't go wrong with a Vantrue and if you'd like a 4 channel dashcam it looks pretty good. I would give it a go
qwdrfy 0.8yung sakin kasi basic lang na N2 na may Rear Camera tapos ako na din nag install, nabili ko lang din sa Shopee mall, though nakikita ko may mga pwesto na sila sa mga malls like Trinoma or SM north, check mo if may malapit na inyo. its serves its purpose naman though may mga higher models you can check it out. For SD card, I checked and Shoppe ko lang sya din nabili , SanDisk Max Endurance for 1.1k, ito pa lang tumatagal sakin na SD Card funny ang dami ko pala nabiling sd card na tig 300, 200 sa shopee dahil laging nageeror mag recording
Showny16 0.2101% yes. Vantrue N2 for budget or Vantrue N4+ for quality/features
vegas_bri 0.2VanTrue N4 4K 3-channel. Have had mine for a few years here now and zero issues.
Also chiming in on VanTrue. I've used the N4 4K 3-channel dashcam for about 4-5 years now. Not a single issue, even the suction cup stays on in the intense heat.
Farmer_Pete 0.2I got a Vantrue last year. They had good sales. I've got a 3 camera version, but only use the front camera currently. I turned off the cabin camera to conserve storage space. It also wasn't good for my marriage when I suggested we look at the tape to resolve a discussion we were having about who said what to whom. So now I have it turned off. I can turn it back on with voice commands if I ever needed to if we were being stopped or something.
1StinkyGrilledCheese 0.2I have the Vantrue N4 Pro in my Tacoma and an N4 (non Pro) in my wife's 2025 Nissan Leaf. The Pro has wifi capabilities in which you can access the footage via the app. The whole setup is pretty easy, and I wired both vehicles using The Dongar adapters that connect at the rear view mirror (most newish cars have power of some sort in the mirror). YouTube was a good resource for the truck, but hardly nothing for the Leaf, so I had to put on the ol thinking cap. No need to do a hard wire if you don't want to, and it looks clean with no wires hanging. The Dongar usually runs about $30, just make sure you know what pin type you need. Even running the wires under the overhead liner for the rear camera is super easy.
