Not as great as I expectedReviewed in the United States on December 3, 2021
I had very high hopes for this little camera. First, I have to give Vantrue huge props for their documentation. It's written in proper English, and that's the same for the user interface of the camera. Nice job. This isn't common with all the chinese cheapo products out there.My first complaint is the suction cup mount. Frankly, suction cup mounts are stupid. They just don't stay. There needs to be a permanent adhesive solution. They are convenient, but I'm looking for something reliable. Suction cups aren't reliable. Secondarily, the length of the mount from the cup to the camera is excessive. This results in the camera being more than a couple inches away from the windshield, and it results in it being more difficult to place due to the way my vehicle's rear view mirror is placed, and reflections/glare from the windshield. In addition, can't mount this camera on a vertical windshield like in an RV. I was hoping to buy a second for my motor home, but this won't cut it.Daytime video quality is good, though not as good as my Anker Roav camera I bought over 3 years ago. I can sometimes read license plates, but the clarity of plate numbers isn't always clear.Night time video is sub-par, particularly with the headlights on my vehicle, which are LED. Can't read a single sign or license place on the road, as they are completely washed out white.Unfortunately, I have to send this thing back. I'm sorry, Vantrue. I think this is a well-constructed product and I wish you had another camera that would solve my issues/concerns at a reasonable price, but this one isn't going to work out for me.
