The top-rated, most-recommended dual dashcam in our local Facebook Uber/Lyft support groups!Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2018
I love my N2 Pro; its even better than I'd hoped! I've temporarily mounted it at the very lowest corner of the dash & left pillar, even though this is 'wrong' on 2 counts: The higher the better because the interior camera's view is much better, especially of the back seat occupants. Also, mounting to the passenger's side vs the drivers is better, because if mounted high up on the driver's side, the IR lights illuminate on'es face so brightly that it 'throws off' the camera and causes the picture to turn out to dark & dim in the rear seat area. But where I've mounted it actually works out 'ok', performance-wise plus has the advantage of allowing me to route my power cord directly under the dashcover so almost none is showing. But if I mounted it high up, I'd ideally want to route the cord under a couple trim pieces I'd first have to pry off and I'm not ready to commit to this yet. I bought the green & white Samsung 64GB EVO Select card most popular with other N2 Pro amazon buyers, and its been working great right out of the box. But this 64GB card only lasts me ~6 hrs of front & rear camera recording, so I ordered a 128GB Samsung EVO Ultra-Fast Performane orange & white micro SD card, which just arrived today. Suggestions from other reviewers & the seller, say I should format it *IN THE DASHCAM* not in my computer. But I kept getting an error message when doing this. Finally, it dawned on me to try to 'long press' (press & hold down a few secs) the OK button when ready to format, and this time, it worked just fine! But after I plugged the power cord into my dashcam and it auto -started, it then displayed the original 'format failed' message again! Anybody know why my 128 card wont format?****UPDATE 10/2018**** I've now had this about a year and its still going strong. The latest firmware update enabled it to accept 256g cards so now I have bother with swapping out cards, much less. Though oddly, it automatically shuts off after losing power when I turn off my car's engine, after only a second or 2, despite the onboard instructions saying I should be able to set this to a much longer interval; maybe I just need to try re-installing the firmware update? ONE HUGE TIP FOR YOU ALL: I've discovered that of the ~5 'Samsung' micro SD cards I've bought from different ebay sellers, 100% are FAKE!! And is why they didnt work properly. By 'fake' I mean either actual counterfeits or 'made for non-U.S. markets' versions. Read up on the different online articles to learn how to tell the fakes/gray-market versions from real Samsung cards. But the 256g card I bought from Samsung on amazon did turn out to be authentic plus was the cheapest price and had it not worked out, would've been easily returnable due to Amazon's awesome returns policy. So I'd highly recommend anyone wanting the Vantrue-recommended top of the line red & white Samsung EVO Plus micro SD cards, buy them only from Samsung on amazon.
