BlackVue - DR650S-2CH

I have Blackvue 650s-2ch in both my vehicles. bought both used in 2012. In use every day. still going. The rear cameras still work but have issues occasionally. Mobile app for these suck and can be glitchy

As a long time Blackvue user of a DR650S in my own car, I would say neither one is worth it. There are better and cheaper options than the newer Blackvue models. I went in a different direction with my new car.

I've been running a blackvue front/rear setup for a couple of years. Very happy with it. I'm pretty sure it's a dr650s. I have it wired to a timer that lets it record for 12 hours when parked. I was in an accident with my Miata in February. It has the same setup. Without the camera footage, I would have been blamed. I got a check for twice what I paid for the car and still was able to drive it. I'm fairly sure the footage is still on r/miata.

Bought a blackvue dual front & back camera with parking mode. Watched YouTube videos of day and night performance and readability of license plates. Video clips are corded in 60 second increments with overlap start and finish. Last month got rear ended by person on the phone. They didn’t know I had a camera and they called the cops. I downloaded the event clip from the mobile app and was able to show the video to the police on the spot. The other driver got a ticket for using the phone.

I have a BlackVue front and rear on my 2025 Outback. I’m not a car guy and I installed it all myself; was pretty easy. Only thing was I forgot to untuck some slack for the wire attached to the rear camera, and when I Opened the trunk it ripped the wire out of the cam and damaged it so I had to order a new one. But both work great and I would 100% get front and rear.

We have the Blackvue 2 channel ( front and rear ) .

I have BlackVue front and rears on mine with incident recording and remote access. I would recommend!

I picked up a dual channel blackvue. It records front and back. I used a fuse tap to power it both during driving and while parked. I've had it for ~9 months. Love it.

I had one failure of my 12v about 3 months after install. I'm unsure if it was related to the dashcam, but I haven't had an issue since...and nothing noticeable on battery life. The picture is phenomenal... And I installed it myself too, which is saying something. I'm not the best at DIY projects.... But couldnt stomach a $600-$800 install cost I was finding.

I have a BlackVue 2 channel system in my 2017 [*trim level redacted so Shamy Shamerson doesn’t call me out, too*].

Blackvue 2 chanel camera. Get it with WiFi but no need for cellular connection as that is for people who operate fleets like taxis. Can get them with 1080 front and rear or 4k front with 1080 rear. It's a camera that you fit and forget until you need it then you just use the app on your phone to download the videos immediately.

I used a BlackVue 2 channel camera in our Bolt LT2 because of the size of the plastic shroud behind the camera. My previous VIOFO camera would have blocked too much of the view. I also hard wired it for parking protection. The BlackVue has some nice cloud features like viewing footage. When I get home, it connects to my wifi and uploads all of its captured data to their cloud service.

There's an Audi dashcam? Hmm.. I have a blackvue 2 channel camera which is very nice and sleek. It hides well on the front and rear window. My only gripes are: 1) The app. It's a complete pain in the ass to view any footage and it won't update the firmware because the dashcam connects to my phone via wifi and if it's connected via wifi, there's not any actual Internet access from the cellular signal so it can never update 🤣 what a joke. There are other ways to update the firmware, but I can't be bothered lol And 2) it records in minute increments, which makes viewing footage a pain. There are an enormous number of files associated with a day of driving. Other than those 2 points, it's a great dashcam and overall, I do recommend it.

I got the best one at the time, which was around $1000 for the dashcam and $300 for the battery pack. But Black Vue sell all sorts, just make sure you have a dual cam, that is front and rear.

For fleet we often do blackvue DR-series with a tamperproof case. That way, it can not be unplugged. Some options for LTE models for remote viewing capabilities. Pricing will vary depending on where you are.
