Must have camera. Covers almost 360 degrees. - Updating review for hardwire kit.Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2018
Ok. I have a brand new 2018 Shelby GT350 and someone dinged my door HARD the other day down to the metal. No note, no apology, no nothing.I wanted a camera that was 360 degrees but the ones I looked at fell short on video quality. Then I came across this camera. They say this is for Uber, etc. but seriously, who wouldn't want coverage of your rear and sides?? Cars can rearend you or hit you from the sides even more than the front of the car! We need the full coverage of two cameras!The Vantrue N2 Pro has TWO 1080p cameras (front and back) almost covering 360 degrees. If anyone hits my door now, I have this camera recording full time. It also completely covers the view out the rear windshield in 1080p so if anyone rear-ends me, it's all on camera. Both my side windows are visible (I can adjust the camera to get more coverage too) so if anyone hits me from the side, it's covered.I feel much SAFER parking and driving now. Also the camera itself is a deterrent from someone doing something to my car on purpose. Because people can see it (it's very good looking in the windshield) and also has a blue glow on the adapter that may scare people away so they don't mess with my car.Things I like:1. Picture quality is 1080p forward AND backward!2. Sound quality is great.3. NIGHT VISION for inside car!!!4. Two cameras simultaneously.5. Bright colorful images.6. Lots of features such as auto night vision (so you don't have to set it manually), emergency file protection (if you have a smaller card and you want to protect a segment from being overwritten, etc.7. It looks good.8. You can easily move it in all angles. You can also adjust the rear camera separately.9. Solid build.10. If you don't want to use the rear camera, you can use super high res for the front (1440p).I also heard you can save money on car insurance with these so I'm going to call my car insurance tomorrow.In summary, this is the best dash cam out currently and also covers your rear (no pun intended!). :o)UPDATE: I also bought the hardwire kit. I'm glad I did because I don't like wires hanging all over and this is a 100% concealed kit. The Vantrue has another port on top for the plug and so you just route the wire along the top of the windshield (it tucks right in without any special tools), then I pulled off my a-pillar cover (just snaps out), pulled off a panel on the side where it vents into the door (also just snaps off), unplugged a fuse and plugged it into the correct wiretap, and then plugged in the Vantrue wiretap and DONE!!! It's a <10 minute job!!!Highly recommended.
