If you are in the market for a dual dashcam, I just got this from Vantrue Vantrue N2X 2.7K Uber Dash Cam... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D9GRRXH5?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share which has been pretty good so far. I also got this https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6506838.p?skuId=6506838&sb_share_source=PDP to go with it. Before this I bought the Viofo A119 mini 2 which was pretty bad as the app was not retrieving any videos and the camera was not recording the videos properly. It was cutting it off abruptly every 30-45 seconds. Give this a shot for about 170$.

Correct. I’ve never had to use WiFi with mine. I purchased the Vantrue N2 Pro Uber Dual Dash Cam. Edit: You’ll have to buy their brand of SD Card. I purchased a 256GB Card, plenty of space. I set my recordings for every 3 minutes

Most dashcams with “GPS” feature show speed. [Vantrue has some good 2 channel and 3 channel cams](https://www.reddit.com/r/dashcams/s/65SdNGK6Jc) tried and tested. Same with VIOFO, Garmin, and blackvue. Stay away from Pruveeo.

I have two, one Vantrue N4 Pro and a Vantrue N2X. Haven't had them long so can't testify about longevity but quality seems solid. Video quality is top notch. If these fail me in any way I'll probably go Blackvue.

Vantrue or VIOFO. They both use the Sony Starvis image sensor and have great quality. The cameras are pretty set and forget if you opt for the hardwire kit. It will turn on and off with the car and start recording as soon as it starts up. The included power adapter does the same thing if your power port in your car turns off with the ignition.

Front/rear facing Van True dash cam is what I used driving Uber on our ‘21 Sienna. Added one lookin out the back after being tailgated by a Peterbilt on I-80 in Pennsylvania. All I could see was chrome in the rear view mirror at 75mph. Easy enough to install and hide power supply cables. (Picture resolution roughly the equivalent of an iPhone 11)

I use a vantrue n2 pro. In side and front cam with audio. Been running this one for a year and no major issues compared to the couple others I've tried from different brands. I got it on Amazon for around $100, it goes on sale periodically. Most of the cheaper cams under 200ish use the same sensors anyways but out of the couple brands I've tried this ones held up great. Only suggestion for any cam is get a decent brand SD card as you don't want to put your trust in whatever generic crap they mail it to you with. I've been using samsung evo cards.

I got the Vantrue N2X because my car has cameras recording the outside, but after a passenger jumped in front of my car on Christmas Eve (she wasn’t at the pick up spot and saw me leaving the area) and tried to get me deactivated, I decided I needed interior audio to prove what she did. Lyft obviously sided with me because you can see her run to get in front of my car, but if she hadn’t, I would have had no proof. It’s cheaper since it doesn’t have a rear camera, but still effective when it comes to false passenger claims.

Vantrue N2 Dual here, without GPS. Bought it many years ago, but it is still working great. I especially like it because it has battery backup, and when parked, detects motion and takes near 360 video - kind of similar to sentry mode.

I have a Vantrue Pro Dual hardwired in with the GPS mount and I love it. Warning with the 24 the fuse panel is buried passenger side behind the right side panel. You have to remove a few pieces of trim and the body clips are cheaply made as usual. Use removal tools and be careful. The next issue is the fuse panel is very small, not labeled and sealed water tight so you have to cut yourself a small path for the leads. Wires are completely hidden and the playback ia high def, and tracks my location / speed. You get what you pay for so remember that if you go cheap. With a big memory card this thing holds a ton of data. Has a switch to power down if its in park mode and the battery drops below a certain voltage. I bought one after I got hit by a car on my Harley in a hit and run, and then I ran accidents here in my area and found that a large majority are hit and run. Ive also had someone try to lie when I was T boned years and years ago.

Vantrue n2x is good - it has front and interior rear facing cameras and runs off a capacitor. Do not get a dash camera with a lithium ion battery - their batteries will swell and become inoperable here in the summer heat.

If you're thinking about getting a dash cam, I’d say go for one that’s easy to use and gives good video quality. Like, you don't want grainy footage, right? A couple of good options are the Vantrue N2 Pro and the Nextbase 522GW. The Vantrue N2 Pro is solid, especially if you want something with a front and rear camera—great for Uber or Lyft drivers too. The quality’s awesome, and it has night vision, which is super handy. On the other hand, the Nextbase 522GW is packed with cool tech like Alexa built-in and a touchscreen. Plus, it's got this neat Emergency SOS feature, just in case. For budget-friendly stuff, check out the Anker Roav Dash Cam—it’s simple, easy, and gets the job done without breaking the bank. Just make sure it has loop recording (so it overwrites old footage) and parking mode, so you're covered when the car’s off. Oh, and don’t forget to grab a good memory card too!

I went with the Vantrue N2X. It has a forward facing and cabin camera. The cabin camera actually does a good job seeing out the side and back windows as well. Bought the power adapter from Trail Grid Pro and wired it up to my rear view mirror.

I've got a Vantrue N2X; admittedly I got a great deal on it ($130) But I did alot of research, and Vantrue seems to be a good reputable brand in this space. if I can I'll pull my SDcard later, upload a video. [https://www.amazon.com/Vantrue-STARVIS-Support-Parking-Control/dp/B0D9GRRXH5](https://www.amazon.com/Vantrue-STARVIS-Support-Parking-Control/dp/B0D9GRRXH5) Looks like theres a coupon for $40 off, from $199. The app kinda sucks, I won't lie, but for me I just pull the SDcard and plop it into a reader in my PC(s) if I need the files. and its totally fine. \*\*I should add, I was looking for something that did cabin recording AND front recording was my prerogative. Its hard(er) to find a decent one that does both for a reasonable price.

I have a vantrue that captures front and cabin. I got it when i was driving my Crosstrek and could see my dogs in the back and it could see out the rear window. I really didn’t want to wire a rear one, not as straight forward as the windshield. Anyway, it’s 2k front and rear or 4k front only and has captured a lot of cool shit. Accidents, wildlife trying to commit suicide and it’s kinda fun to check footage after some spirited driving. I got my daughter the newer model that connects via WiFi and she loves it.

I bought a Vantrue N2 and the biggest SD card it would hold off Amazon. This model does require a computer to download the video from the SD card. It sounds to me like you would prefer something with cloud storage that you could access from your phone. Your top of the line brands like Vantrue, Nexar, and BlackVue all have models with this feature. There are budget friendly options out there. Just read reviews and cross-check with YouTube to see if the model you are interested in has a review done by someone who has bought one. And once you buy one, you can have it professionally installed if you feel uneasy doing it yourself.

I have the Vantrue N2K, it records 4k front and cabin. Clear resolution, captures a wide angle and reads all plates. Cost me $150 on Amazon last year, was originally 300. Not sure if it’s still in stock the last time I looked they were out on Amazon but check out Vantrue’s website for it or other models

This is perfect for ride sharing. It has a camera facing the the passengers if they act out or make a mess. The front camera is great for traffics purposes. All you do is buy a SD memory card, plug it to power and let it do its magic. When it runs out of space it will record over things. When you need footage you can use your phone and use the app to find the footage and send it to Lyft or Uber. I find it holds pretty well on the windshield and I’ve experienced 110 degree summer with it. If you still have issues with it. Just return it within the return window https://www.amazon.com/Vantrue-STARVIS-Support-Parking-Control/dp/B0D9GRRXH5/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.iXIRhIg1kUP7eFNxvKWhGvW2cPc-EUzHNQDkxLcgHDj7wnZ_wVdzuNzIcmhRkFufG4YwsT-MxcRCTP8-UR3CvfFu05I4_TStfi_vF2T_aHoKx9XATFEOvPcyno3g9oWb98s8nULmlAbECQf67QGwimLx81j2FAvniP4JL-MBEUAmR0Ktb7BethtCkA8w_F9wzgCdN_wLv31VcOPLopETHw.eaTIV7azAV98uD5zzpw1MYvUe-fjcQoJczEcl6ZKujg&dib_tag=se&keywords=Vantrue+nexus&qid=1756349852&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfYXRm&psc=1
