When upgrading my dashcam, I decided to stick with Vantrue!Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2021
Going by their history, and by the products and reviews on Amazon over the years, Vantrue has been around for a while in the dashcam industry. So it's to be expected that people have bought their products, used them thoroughly, and have to make a decision on what model to upgrade to when they want the latest and greatest. When I made that decision, I decided to stick with Vantrue, and I just changed out my N2 Pro, to the N4. So basically I'm comparing a product released July 2017, to January 2020, and basically comparing the flagship product from 2.5 years ago, to the flagship today. I liked my N2 before, and I see the N4 as improving on most aspects of the unit. I appreciate that the lithium battery is replaced with a capacitor, the front resolution is higher, and I believe that the video quality is improved as well.One thing work noting is that Vantrue has a track record of supporting their products with upgraded firmware. I went to their website to confirm my memory. In 2020, Vantrue provided 3 firmware updates, and in 2019, there were 4, for the N2 model. I look to their support of the N2, and feel good about buying the N4, and to the product being supported well by the manufacturer into the future.My one suggestion is to create a written note to yourself describing any changes you make to the default settings, since each firmware update resets the settings to default. Now after every firmware update, I look at my note, re-input my settings in 2 minutes, and I'm back to happy with my preferred setup.
