Die Montage erfolgt sehr leicht und verunstaltetdas Cockipt nicht mit Hsslichen Kabeln oder hnlichen. Die Kamera bietet Auflsungen in Kombination mit unterschiedlichen Frame Raten. Ich bevorzuge die FullHD Variante hierbei.
Kamera lsst sich leicht und schnell im Auto “einbauen”alles was man bentigt ist dabei. Bildqualitt ist gut anpassbar. Der Weitwinkel ist ebenfalls sehr gut, da so Die gesamte Strae abgedekt ist und die Kamera nicht zwingend n der Mitte der Windschutzscheibe montiert werden muss.
Selbstvestndlich mochte man das Gert niemals fr Unflle Brauchen, aber es ist gut eines zu haben.
Auerdem sehen die Videos von der Fahrt auch sher gut aus und es macht Spa Sie zu betrachten. Ich fhle mich schon damit sicher er in Straenverkehr.
Fr den Preis ein gutes Gert mit guter Bildqualitt und guten Funktio
It was indeed very easy to install and use.
The parking monitor does work which is a relief to be honest. It starts recording as soon as it feels movement.
Happy about that.
You might need a larger SD card, minimum 128GB because the file size of the recordings can be quite large.
All in all happy.
Hab mir die Dashcam fr mein Auto geholt. Installation ist super einfach mit dem mitgelieferten OBD Stecker keine Verkabelung an der Autoelektronik ntig.
Leider was mir nicht so gut gefallen hat war die Auflsung der Bilder die Aufnahmen sind nicht so gut deswegen ist die Dashcam zurck gegangen.
Finde diese Dashcam nach einigen Testversuchen sehr gut. Aufnahme luft einwandfrei. Bildqualitt am Tag sehr gut, in der Nacht nicht ganz optimal aber ausreichend. Saugleistung an der Scheibe sehr gut. Angesteck kann es ber den OBD oder via Zigarettensteckdose. Ich hab einen USB Adapter in dem Zigarettenanzunder und dort die DC angeschlossen. Fr die Parkberwachung schliee ich dann an ein Powerpack an. Bei zeiten kommt dann der Anshcluss ber OBD.
Tonaufnahme passt auch – evetuell etwas zu leise.
Werden und eine2te DC zulegen fr den Zweitwage
Die Kamera macht das was Sie soll und zwar recht gut. Die Aufnahmen bei Tageslicht sind top, in der Nacht muss man natrlich abstriche machen, aber auch hier sind die wichtigsten Details noch klar zu erkennen. Natrlich gibt es mittlerweile Kameras mit hherer Auflsung.
Die Saugnapfhalterung ist klasse. Sie hlt einfach.
Einziger Kritikpunkt bisher, ein Firmwareupdate hat der Prozessor wohl nicht verkraftet. Die Kamera hat kaum noch reagiert und man konnte auch keine SD-Karten mehr formatieren.
Der Produktsupport vom Hersteller sowie auch Amazon ist jedoch hervorragend. Zuerst gab es Tipps um die Kamera evtl. wieder zu reparieren, wurde dann aber ohne Probleme umgetauscht.
Macht was sie soll und das wirklich sehr gut. Anschlusskabel sind lang genug. Vor dem anbringen unbedingt die Innenscheibe reinigen, damit der Saugnapf hlt.
Die Arretierung knnte aber fester sein beim bettigen der Cam verstellt man sie gerne
Ansonsten kann ich nur sagen sie tut was sie soll
Ich bin sehr begeistert von dieser Dashcam. Hatte zuerst eine andere mit der ich sehr unzufrieden war. Bildqualitt ist sehr gut, man kann die Nummernschilder problemlos erkennen. Schn ist auch der Park Modus gegen parkrmpler.
Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dieser Dashcam
It works as expected. Parking mode is a very useful feature (as long you have it connected with the included OBD cable). Microwave sensor works flawlessly and starts recording seconds before an incident happens, which is very useful, (other dashcams start recording after the incident). Image quality is very good.
Hallo, T2 Dashcam, mit OBD kabel, zeichnet permanent auf, ich mchte beim verlassen von Auto nur Parkmodus. Bitte um Antwort! Danke. Sonst ist Super Dashcam!!!
Schade das das GPS Modul separat gekauft werden muss. Sonst ist alles Top
Easy to setup and install yourself. I use the OBD cable on my car. I just use the car for pleasure. I’ve got used to it and am very happy. I live in Greater London. Over 70
I needed to have a camera that could stay on 24 hour as my car had been a victim of vandalism from an ex partner, this one connects to a slot underneath my steering wheel (which I never knew existed). This means that the camera can record 24 hours a day every day. The night vision is brilliant, however, it is quite hard to pick up the number plates sometimes and if your window screen fogs up you’re screwed! It’s a good overall camera and I am really glad I have found this as it reassures me that I will catch the person.
Ich habe die Dashcam seit ca. zwei Wochen und bin bis jetzt sehr zufrieden. Bitte beachten, dass manche Class 10 Speicherkarten von z.B. SanDisk bzw. Transcend nicht stabil genug laufen und es zu Ausfllen in der Aufzeichnung kommen kann… zumindest war es bei mir so. Seitdem ich die, vom Serviceteam empfohlene, Speicherkarte “Samsung EVO Plus” verwende, zeichnet die Dashcam ohne Probleme auf. Vielen Dank an das Serviceteam fr das schnelle und freundliche Feedback.
Alles in allem eine sehr gute Dashcam. Was mich gestrt hat ist das man das GPS-Modul extra erwerben muss. Die Bildqualitt ist tagsber sowie nachts beeindruckend.
Awesome camera, so easy to set up and install, instructions are well written in plain English. Picture quality is great and the parking monitor feature is a must IMHO. A big plus was not having to cut into the loom on my new car as the OBD connector supplies the voltage for the parking feature.
Don’t be intimidated thinking it’s a major job to install, it really is just plug and play, anyone with common sense should be able to having up and running in around 20 mins.
Got this after reading a few positive online reviews. Am pretty impressed with the video quality after about using for 6 weeks. Good detail caught including number plates. There’s some rdail distortion but this is a 60 angle of view camera so to be expected. Good build quality. The camera clips onto a good suction cup mount that is very secure (and can be replaced with an optional GPS containing mount). Camera easy to install. You’ll need to get your own micro SD card but the cam supports much higher capcity cards than the 32Gb one I’m using. My 32Gb card works out as over 2 days time on my work driving (1-3 hours a day). Comes both with the expected car charder cable to use in the aux/cigarette lighter port but also a cable allowing you to power it from the the OBD socket. I use the OBD socket one with my Astra mk 5 allowing me to still use a phone charger etc.
the camera shock/vibration detector works well (it pretty much records a file every time i open or shut the door to the events folder)
Ich habe mir diese Dashcam gekauft, da sie mir von einem Freund empfohlen worden ist und da die Bewertungen auch dafr zustimmen…
Die Cam ist relativ klein und problemlos hinter dem Rckspiegel montierbar, so dass sie mich beim fahren nicht strt oder ablenken kann.
Die Installation war ganz einfach zumal das Handbuch auch sehr gut alle Schritte beschreibt. Die Dashcam macht bei Tag und Nacht vernnftige Fotos/Videos. Diese Dashcam ist ideal fr den alltglichen Gebrauch geeignet. Sie schaltet sich automatisch ein, wenn der Motor des Fahrzeugs startet und stoppt die Aufnahme wenn man ihn wieder abschaltet.
Fr diejenigen, die kompakte und einfache Dinge mgen, ist diese Kamera perfekt.Fr den Preis absolut Empfehlenswert. Macht was es soll.
Da die Gesetzeslage fr die Nutzer der Dashcams sehr positiv ausgefallen ist, sollte es zu einer Standard Ausstattung jedes Fahrzeuges gehren, so wie in vielen Lndern bereits praktiziert und blich ist. Vor dem Erwerb dieser Kamera habe ich bereits vier Andere gehabt beziehungsweise wieder retour geschickt, obwohl diese von bekannten Marken waren und teilweise deutlich teurer. Die Installation der Kamera in das Auto war sehr einfach. Eine SD-karte kam nicht mit dabei, jedoch war alles andere ntige mit in der verpackung dabei um die kamera zu installieren. Der Saugknop ist sehr stark und hlt vieles aus. Die kamera muss whrend der Fahrt immer angeschlossen sein aber dies hat folgende Vorteile: Die kamera geht autmoatisch an/aus wenn man den Motor Startet/ausmacht. Also im groen und ganzen ist die Kamera sehr gut, optisch als auch technisch gesehen. Man muss nichts extra dazu kaufen um die Kamera zu bedienen, sondern man bekommt alles mitgeliefert und man kann direkt mit der Installation starten.
Die Dash Kamera wurde schnell geliefert. Die ist sehr kompakt und hat das ntige Zubehr.
Die Einstellung und die Anbringung im Auto waren kinderleicht.
Was man noch bentigt und nicht im Lieferumfang enthalten ist, ist eine Micro-SD Karte zum Aufnehmen und speichern der Videos.
Die Videoaufnahme 1080p ( Tag / Nacht ) sieht super aus ; sind scharf, frei von Erschtterungen und alles ist sehr gut zu erkennbar.
Fr diesen Preis bekommt man wirklich ein tolles Produkt.
Ich benutze diese Kamera seit einigen Tagen. Die Kamera ist handlich, kompakt, und macht einen hochwertigen Eindruck. Die
Videos sind von sehr guter Qualitt. Ich war wirklich mehr als positiv berrascht, vor allem die Installation, wenn man
das so nennen kann, war sehr einfach. Sie ist klein und strt daher nicht die Sicht. Ich bin wirklich zufrieden mit das
was sie leiten kann und mit der Marke dieser Kamera. Die Bildqualitt ist berraschender Weise auch bei Nacht scharf und
gut. Sobald die Zndung an ist, geht automatisch die Kamera an, so vergisst man sie nie einzuschlaten! Super Spielzeug,
Preis/Leistung ebenfalls top! – Meine Kaufempfehlung !
Extremely easy to set up and get running in your vehicle. Very well made with good component parts.
Sony Image Sensor & NOVATEK Processor. This piece of kit will give you piece of mind in your vehicle for many years to come.
As a bonus VANTRUE will extend your guarantee when registering the product on their website.
Buy the T2 now to geta 15 discount.
Update.
When I registered this with Vantrue, they kindly sent me the GPS mount, this really makes the product come to life.
Showing G-force, Speed and Location, when viewing your footage on computer.
I would recommend adding the GPS mount when buying a Vantrue dash cam.
This is a really great dashcam. Firstly the picture quality is excellent. It is easy to use and set up, but the star of the show is the OBD connection. This means that you can hard wire it literally in minutes without any technical know how. I plugged this in to the OBD and hid the wires easily. It looks like a professional install.
For the money, a great bit of kit and one that I would recommend to family and friends.
Die Kamera wurde schnell geliefert. Ausgepackt. Anschluss ber Zigarettenanznder oder OBD mglich.. Installation einfach und schnell… Bin durchaus zufrieden.
-die Bildqualitt ist gut
-die Verarbeitung ist robust und solide
-die Halterung hlt sehr gut
Bei der Preisklasse ist diese Dashcam eine gute Entscheidung und wrde es daher wrmstens weiterempfehlen.
After I tested the cam, I can say that this is really a worthy present. BTW the 1st test was performed during a snowstorm at night. The picture quality is great, and I am glad that it has the screen so you can playback videos directly on the camera. Menu and settings are easy and intuitive. I would HIGHLY recommend Vantrue T2 camera to anyone who wants the peace of mind of having a camera running as they drive. I love how, once it’s plugged in, it turns on automatically so you don’t have to remember to turn it on! I give it five stars for its price-range quality.
I purchased this Dash Cam for my car to give myself peace of mind in case of any accidents and at the same time, wanted a way to connect using ODB so that it turns off when the engine is off as well – to save the battery – I was not disappointed! This does exactly what it says it does, and the quality is great! It picks up plates and signs easily and has some incredible features on the cam! I really like the fact you can monitor motion using the sensors to record movement when parked in sensitive places, as well as the option to continuously overwrite footage so your mini-SD card doesn’t get full or require manual deletion of old files. Great device all around!
My mum just bought a new car, so I thought the Vantrue T2 would make an ideal birthday present for her.
The camera itself is nice and compact, which I really like as it keeps the camera discrete when in your windscreen and less noticeable from the outside, which is a huge bonus when you leave the camera fitted all the time.
The body is tubular shaped and is made from a good solid plastic with a matt black, slightly rubberized finish.
The notable features of the rear of the device is the 2.0″ screen which makes navigating the onscreen menu’s nice and easy and to the left of the screen is the OK and emergency video lock button.
The bottom edge of the camera features a series of buttons (Menu, Up, Down, WaveGuard On/Off), as well as the little microphone hole.
The left hand end of the camera has an exposed Mini USB port which can be used to power the camera or to connect it to a PC to transfer video files and next to this is a lift up flap which covers the MicroSD slot, Mini HDMI port and the reset button.
The front of the dashcam houses the 160 degree lens, a small speaker and the WaveGuard Parking Monitor indicator. The suction mount attaches to the top.
The dimensions are as follows:
11cm x 4.3cm x 4.8cm (at it’s widest parts and excluding the mount).
The T2 has all of the features that you would expect from such a device, including automatic switch on and record with the ignition and a G-Sensor to automatically lock video clips in the event of a collision.
It also has a couple of extra features that I haven’t had with other models — these include WaveGuard, which can be switched on and sends microwave signals outside of the car when parked and will record when it detects motion. An ODB cable is also supplied with the package, which can be used to supply power to the camera even when the ignition is off and has a built in low voltage feature to cut power to the camera when your car battery falls below a certain voltage, preventing your battery from draining too much and not allowing the car to start.
Most dashcams have a small built in battery, but the T2 uses a Super Capacitor in place of the battery. The capacitor is safer than a battery, as temperatures in your windscreen can get quite high in the summer, which is not good for batteries.
The mount is the standard suction type and has a MiniUSB port built in, so you can power the camera from the mount.
***** In The Box *****

1 x 12v Lighter socket and Cable
1 x USB Cable
1 x ODB Cable
1 x User Guide
***** Installation / Use *****
Using the T2 is simple and the menu’s are a pleasure to use — they are pretty much identical to my previous dashcams but have been separated into several sections.
I first connected the dashcam to the mains using the supplied USB cable (and a USB mains adapter), so that I could change the settings from the comfort of my sofa.
I fitted a 32GB Class 10 Samsung MicroSD card into the card slot and powered up the dashcam — the whole process takes 5 seconds at most and the camera is ready to start recording.
The camera has many different settings that you can change, including the recording resolution and quality. There are only 2 resolutions available: 1920×1080 FHD and 1280×720, although you would really want to use the highest setting anyway.
Other options include adding your number plate and setting the recording loop duration – the recording loop feature is great, as it records video in either 1, 3 or 5 minute clips. This saves you having to scroll through 1 huge video file to find something you are looking for, as you can select the clip that matches the time of the incident you want to watch. Once the memory card is full, it will begin to overwrite the recorded files, starting with the oldest files first .
I have tested the camera at it’s highest resolution of 1920×1080, and the image quality is very good. It is nearly always possible to read number plates and road signs and the camera copes pretty well with changing light conditions. Night time video is also pretty good (not quite as good as day time, but that is to be expected).
***** Conclusion *****
This is a very nice dashcam, which records good quality video. The image is generally nice and crisp, with good detail and has a nice vibrant colour.
I really like the design of the T2, with it’s tubular shape and the discrete nature of the camera helps to keep it less visible from outside the car.
I like that the suction mount has a power connector, as you can easily remove the camera from the mount without having to unplug cables. Although I do feel that for the price, the GPS mount (available separately), should have been included in the package.
I like the design of the included 12v power adapter, as you can slide a cover on the top of the plug to reveal a USB port, which is very handy if you only have 1 x 12v socket in your car, this allow you to connect the dashcam and still charge your phone at the same time.
The ODB cable is also a great idea, especially if you want to make use of the Wave Guard Parking Monitor. I really like that the ODB plug has a very low profile and will only stick out a few millimeters when plugged in, which is great for cars like mine where there is very little space between the port and the removable dashboard panel that covers it. I also like that the cable is more flat than round, which would make it easier to route around your car.
For 130, I think the T2 is just a little expensive compared to some other dashcams available which offer a slightly higher resolution for the same price and if you add the GPS mount it would take you to around 150. Having said that, the build quality is very high, it uses the safer Super Capacitor and it comes with an 18 month warranty (longer than most brands), for added peace of mind. All in all, I have no complaints and it has made a great gift for my mum.
Belles images, bonnes prises de vues quand le pare brise est propre
I’ll be sending this back. The features are great and build quality However the picture quality is more like 720 rather than 1080p. I’ve had much cheaper dash cams with way way better quality. Not at all happy with this for the price.
Revised review – I decided to keep this. I reviewed the footage on my Mac using iMovie and actually the picture is great. I would 5 star this dashcam if the price was more in the region of 90-100 maximum
Easy to setup. Good quality. Easy install plugged into cigarette lighter via USB socket or OBD. Excellent video footage when I have had to save files for use. I bought this dash cam on the basis it is easy to attach & remove from the holder when required. It saves several hours of footage which can be easily searched when plugged into laptop. Only little con – its a a bit expensive.
Im Vergleich mit einem Dashcam welche nur 9,99 Euro gekostet hat, kann man sehr leicht sagen, das man schon das Geld in die Hand nehmen muss um etwas ntzliches zu haben.
Die gnstigen Dashcams kann man nur benutzen, wenn es drauen auch wirklich hell ist, den sonst erkennt man Abends nichts. Auch von der Qualitt her merkt man einen riesen Unterschied.
Dieses Modell ist teuer, aber dafr hat sie einen hervorragende Bildqualitt, sehr hochwertige Gehuse, scharfes Display und Must Have Funktionen wie Parkmodus und G- Sensor. Es besteht sogar die Mglichkeit GPS Antenne anzuschlieen, was aber nicht im Lieferumfang mit dabei war.
Bei dem Preis htte ich mir schon die GPS gerne mit gewnscht.
Alles in allem muss man hier sagen, dass man auch das bekommt was man zahlt. Vielleicht ist der Preis doch minimal zu hoch, aber dafr ist eine erstklassige Bildqualitt der Preis.
The quality of the camera is not diminish at night, it is still crystal clear thanks to the super night vision and Sony sensor feature that “automatically balance the exposures to pick up greater detail in the dark” even with a bit of rain : ) . I also like the fact that it has auto LCD off, the screen automatically turns off few minutes after initial recording, this feature enables me to concentrate on my driving and not be disturbed by its glow, a ++ for me.
The box includes an OBD cable, if use instead of the cigarette lighter power, activates the wave guard parking monitoring which allows the dash cam to auto-record when it detects movement closer to your car.
Good thing to note as well is that when I inserted the SD card and tried to start recording theres a “SD card not supported” message on the screen, if ever you’ll get this just go to the system set up and choose format and your good to go, be warned though as this will Delete everything on your SD card.
I love the performance and features of this tiny bitty dash cam so far, I’ll update this review if I’ll encounter any problem/s.
Good item for price. Easy way to install and all you need for first use is into box (not SD Card). I use with OBD for have 247 coverage and in a couple of days,I haven’t problem yet. Video quality is good and no suffer light’s changing. With class 10 SDCard, recording is flowing in FHD. Good constructive quality with grip cover and clear screen on back.
