I have a Vantrue F1 4k system. 4k front, 1080p. Uses Sony starvis sensor so as good as it gets at night video. Excellent quality. Fit and forget. I also have an insta360 x5 mounted on the front but don’t consider that a dashcam more of a “catch cool things” camera! https://preview.redd.it/hbdsfe4fi3wf1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=894828399576cc155b6c51d7f4ee7ba401c7f3c1
I just installed a vantrue F1 front and rear dash cams. Not easy to install it correctly but it's worth it. The control unit has a mic built in and can support up to 512 gb memory cards. The front camera is 4k and the rear is 2k if I recall correctly. I used to use a insta 360x3 but the battery didn't last very long and 360 footage eats up memory card space. https://preview.redd.it/sfzsqior5scg1.jpeg?width=942&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b87a0810b2798694b382da4f29348752a8aea6e0
Seconded on both points. Vantrue F1 is a great dash cam setup for front and rear cams, can be wired very discretely and records very clear footage. You can loop your SD card in it - I have a 1.5tb card in mine which is good for about 70hrs of looped video. But it is not for motovlogging or “cool” action shots with your friends. If you want that, look to a helmet mounted setup and some external mics.
The Vantrue F1 cameras are brilliant. Got them on all my bikes
My Vantrue 4 also shows the view out the front window. I make that one the one that shows. They then don’t notice the very small one in the screen’s corner of them and the interior. So they are less likely to freak out.
Front facing only is better than none. I have a two-channel Vantrue - front and inside cabin. I got it because I also do a rideshare. What I noticed is that the inside view also picks up (although rudimentary) on the sides of the car and a bit of the back of the car. As for screen as distraction - you can set it up so it will turn of after some time (mine does after 30 seconds). I also installed mine to the right of the mirror so it is barely in my view at all (I have Honda Accord)
I got Vantrue because I wanted front/inside combination and for some reason Viofo/Blackvue don't offer the exact setup like this. Usually it's only if you get 3 or 4 channel setup and it's reflected in the price. So far I'm happy with it (it's been a few months).
I have a 2 channel Vantrue I’ve been using for about a month now. No issues and so far it’s done what it’s suppose to. Very easy to use.
Vantrue 4K front, cabin and back of car. Reaaaally great camera with all the angles covered
