Vantrue N1 Pro Mini Dash Cam Full HD 1080P Dashcam for Cars 1.5″ Car Dash Camera Video Recorder w/Sony Sensor, Super Night Vision, Parking Mode, G-Sensor & Collision Detection, Support 256GB Max

An excellent produc
I’m a mini cab driver and since purchase back in July 2018, this item an been in use every time I drive. Both front and back cameras produce excellent HD quality videos.

Great dash cam
Bought this product as my previous dash cam stopped working when it was too cold or too hot. This dash cam covers hot and cold weather the UK usually has and more. It’s easy to set up. Having the rear camera means I haven’t got extra cable showing from another dash cam. The photo function is a bonus. No fiddling in the set up should I need to take a quick photo for evidence the button is next to the screeen. Very happy with product so fa

Best Dual Dash Cam on the market!
I search more than 2 weeks for this cam!like taxi driver you must to record every time,in and out!this one is fantastic in both situations!for outside good quality and for inside(my opinion,with the IR sensor,is the best from the maket!you see very clearly what happened on the back seat in night condition,when the risk is bigger)!I’m happy with my purchase!

High quality dashcam.
I particularly like the visual quality of the output from this camera, it is clear and concise even in the dark.

Great quality and easy to use
I decided to pick this product because it was among the few ones able to record simultaneously from both cameras (rear and front facing) with Full HD 1080p resolution.

Me, as a traveler, a dashcam like this fits my needs perfectly. It can record by using both cameras at the same time with both at Full HD 1080p, perfect resolution for capturing every possible nearby detail of the scene. However, you have also the option to use only the rear (back) camera with up to 1440p (2.5K) resolution, or Full HD (1080p) at 60fps. Perfect for slowing the pace of the video recorded with the help of a sophisticated software. All the other options are at 30fps.

My favorite feature is the ability to maintain the quality of the scene while recording during the night as well. Hence capturing events at night, won’t be an issue at all. Also, the audio quality is great and sharp. There is an IR (Infrared) sensor on the front facing camera, in order to capture events happening inside the car on absolute darkness. Still, no matter what the level of brightness is, Vantrue will still be able to record and capture the event happening.

Of course, you have the option to enable the G-sensor, used to detect movement and start recording automatically. This is a great feature to capture actions of nearby people, or perhaps someone trying to bump your car, or perhaps another car hits yours while your car is parked, so that way you will be able to capture that car number plate.

As this dashcam accepts up to 256GB of SD card storage, it includes a feature of loop recording, overwriting the old videos files automatically.

Overall, I am very happy with this product and I will definitely recommend it for everyone and mostly, for those whose jobs are based mostly on driving (such as taxi, bus drivers etc). Very easy to use and setup, automatic movement detection, high resolution, and quality images and recording, dual camera recording and fits as a security camera for your vehicle perfectly. I’m already recommending this to my friends and family members!

I also have attached a video review of this product which is also available on my YouTube channel named as “TechPocket”.

Not the cheapest but among the best!
I bought the N2 Pro in July and have been using it on every journey since.

I chose the N2 Pro because the front and rear cameras record in 1920x1080P full HD, or 2560x1440P if just using the front camera, and it covers wide angles of 170 degrees front and 140 degrees rear. The high resolution provides the good quality images and number plate recognition I wanted. The camera also has IR lights for the rear camera and captures images inside the vehicle clearly at night. It is easy to set up, and most of the default settings are all you need.

The camera supports the use of a 256GB micro SD card [not provided] so offers plenty of storage space. When full, the camera loop records and overwrites the oldest file so nothing gets missed, and automatically protects the recording in the event of an accident. It records using separate files for front and rear. There’s also a GPS unit available to track the position and speed of the vehicle as part of the recording.

I’ve hardwired the camera using a Vantrue kit so that I can use the Parking mode, with images captured each time there’s movement around my vehicle.

It’s a feature packed device that I would recommend to anyone looking for good quality images at a reasonable price. It’s not the cheapest, but you do get what you pay for!

Vantrue N2 Dual Cam. Nice and compact Dual Camera. High Quality playback and ease of use
After I initially set up after a situation with a corrupt micro sd card (The customer support from Vantrue was brilliant) I found the N2 so easy to set up and straight forward to complete but do ensure you set the correct brightness for the camera as if set to high or to low it can be overexposed/underexposed/Sunlight v Overcast. Once I got used to how it records your journey (My set up sometimes records parts my journey into the Normal and Events folders) so if you wonder where your whole journey is check both folders. I found the camera quality to be outstanding front and rear (A constant reminder to clean my rear screen) and sound is clear as a bell. You also have the choice of having the camera record movement or impact if you are away from your vehicle (Useful if you are at the supermarket) but you will need a constant power feed to the camera. Overall for the price I have found this the most easiest camera to set up and best quality Dual Cam on the market and the Vantrue support is exceptional. Enjoy.

Taxi Driver's Necessity And Best Friend
Overall I’m very happy with my Vantrue N2 Pro and will recommend it highly.
I took one star away because of some lack of information and mistakes in The Manual.

On Page 7, The Manual advises: “While charging, LED indicator light on the OK Button will blink red.”
My Ok button does not blink, it displays constant red light while charging or no light while charging but the battery is full.

It’s unclear that you need to count to 5 while long pressing the P button in order to activate the motion activated parking mode recording. Long press for less and you’ll find yourself scratching your head all day long.

The manual claims that the dashcam will sense when the engine is started and will start recording automatically. This is not the case at all with my E class Mercedes, because the charging outlets are powered at the same current non stop with or without the engine running. So I start the camera manualy and never turn it off. It goes into sleep parking mode automatically when there is no movement detected so theres no need to think about it.

It’s unclear can you use the parking mode without the hardwire kit. Yes, you can do it safely without fear of draining your car battery if you use a power bank. I have used it couple of times with a 20 000 mAh power bank that’s good enought to keep the cam in motion activated parking mode for 24 hours.

User unfriendly firmware update process.
It’s unclear should you install all BIN files updates or just the last one. After some email exchange with the support, I’m still not too sure as to why the download page contains many files but they advised me to use just one of them.

My Vantrue Hard Wire Kit was the old version and came without manual and the necessary add a circuit attachments that connects to the car fuse box. I contacted Vantrue and they explained that those attachments will be available in the new (CURRENT) version of the kit and send me one extra kit for free.
What a GREAT customer service!

It’s unclear what software is recommended to view and operate the simultaneous two way video, map view & GPS data. The manual never even mentions about this very IMPORTANT ability and functionality. I recommend the Dashcamviewer application available for Windows and Mac. (see my pictures)

I use the cam with five 200GB SanDisk SD cards, one for each day, and each of them is enough for 20 hours recording. You can also download it all to external USB hard drive via cable & computer where you can keep it for longer against future insurance claims. Insurance claims can come at any day, weeks after you deleted your proof of innocence. It happened to me and I learned the lesson so now I keep record for at least one week on my five cards.

If you don’t have one, get a phone OTG USB cable/adapter. It’s cheap and it gives you full access to the in camera files to view, download/upload and manage over your smartphone. Also this way you can power up the camera using your phone as powerbank. When connected, Vantrue displays two options to choose from, mass storage or charging. It is shown as external USB memory in the phone’s menu so don’t forget to Eject / Unmount properly to save your SD card from corruption.

So, after all, will I recommend it? If you din’t feel like installing two cameras, yes. It’s such a great quality and value. If I had it before, it would have saved me a lot of hassle with two false insurance claims, they call mistaken identity, lol, costing me a lot of time, frustration and money. Yup, welcome to UK insurance mafia!

Vantrue N1 Pro dash cam
I received the product on time. The quality of the sound, video and pictures is amazing, even in the night. I’m satisfied with this product and I recommend it to everyone. It’s a good value for the money.
Thanks Amazon!

Easy to use and good video quality
The Vantrue N1 Pro comes with features such as parking mode and seamless loop recording (makes editing that bit easier when joining clips together). Vantrue claims that it will support a 256GB micro SD card. I was unable to verify this because I bought a 128GB micro SD card and that definitely works. I formatted it in the camera and I haven’t had any problems with it. Vantrue recommends the Samsung EVO. The best place to find them is elsewhere on Amazon.
The dashcam comes with a suction cup mount, a long mini USB lead which plugs into a 12v socket and a shorter micro USB lead. There is a GPS mount available For the parking mode Vantrue recommends hardwiring the camera to the car. They can provide a suitable mini USB lead for about a tenner.
I found the camera really easy to use. Most of the buttons are on the back except for the emergency button which is situated on the top. Navigating the menus was an absolute doddle and I was able to set it up to how I wanted it. The audio quality wasn’t quite as good as my previous dashcam but I can live with it and besides, it isn’t really a top priority in a dashcam. It cost more than my previous dashcam but it has more features so you do get what you pay for.
I’ve been using it for a week and the video quality is quite good. It seems to adapt quite well to changing light such as when emerging from a tunnel. Vehicle registration numbers are easily visible in daytime but at night you have to be right behind a car to be able to see the plate. The night vision is a good approximation of what the human eye sees though.
Would I recommend it? Most definitely. Amazon are doing a promotion and I got mine for 54.99 so get one before the price goes back up.

Absolutely brilliant!!! Best dashcam ever. Thank you Vantrue!
Absolutely brilliant!! This is the smallest in car dash camera that I’ve ever had.
The quality is also amazing!
100% recommend.
Thank you Vantrue!

Very good playback quality
After looking at other various dash cams and after using two other cans which were returned bye to not living up to expectations I chose to try the vantrue N2 pro dual dash cam,
Was pleasantly pleased to see the packaging was of good quality so my expectations started to grow before I even removed the equipment.
Setup was relatively easy to do, firstly had to leave cam on charge for a few hours before settings could be set to what I wanted but no problem really, just did other things for a while
Menu was easy to follow so settings only took about 5 mins,
Then put the cam in my car, plenty of cable to hide it discretely
Playback quality on laptop was very impressive,one of the best I’ve seen
Overall a very nice and tidy and discrete piece of equipme

No words to describe
I have no words for this dashboard camera. It’s just perfect but don’t forget to buy a card memorise because it doesn’t include one inside…

Brilliant piece of ki
Brilliant piece of kit, records in HD and has recently had a firmware fix to remove the blue “tinge” from the original set up, you will need to install this yourself but it’s very easy to do as there.
The only thing missing is the wifi connectivity to transfer data to a phone or pc, if you’re not bothered about that then this is pretty much a perfect dashcam is you’re a taxi service too.

Specially the feature allowing you to record both front and inside of the car is great. It's easy to defend yourself against claims that ...
What can I say except that this dash cam is made for taxi drivers. Specially the feature allowing you to record both front and inside of the car is great. It’s easy to defend yourself against claims that the taxi driver has done something inappropriate which is a plague nowadays. I fully recommend his cam. Additionally the support team is fabulous.

Excellent produc
This product is very good and extremely clear picture and sound I was very impressed so I bought two more for my other cars, only downside is the battery life is pretty much non existent so have to have external power pack to use the car park option or hardwire. But all in all brilliant product defo recommend.

For me was it was recording picture wise and sound wise at good quality 👍
I had a minor problem at the start with a key symbol appearing irregularly, but once upgraded (firmware) it was great !

Five Stars
Great Product crystal clear images
very small perfect for van or car.

The Best Dual Dashcam
This is the best Dashcam on the market, Its discreet as its compact, the screen is small and turns off once you are on the move and the infrared camera records the inside of your car perfectly along with everything that is said in the vehicle. Picture quality is excellent.
An absolute must if you are a Taxi or Private Hire driver.
Vantrue’s customer service is second to none should you have a problem.

You will not be disappointed!!

Ok, but there are better on the marke
Not at all bad, but not brilliant either. I have had dash cams with better quality videos and better resolution. The rear camera is ok, but if you are driving with the sun behind you then you can’t see a thing. Plus points, you can input your GPS, and registration number so they are there for evidence in case.
I have just upgraded this to 5 stars. This little gem caught a perfect shot of one of the little beggars who nicked my car the other night. Good enough for the pol**e to get a screen shot, and as far as I am concerned, worth it’s weight in gold.

Two way recording
Great item the reason I bought it was because it’s compact, full HD and records the inside of the vehicle as well.

Best Purchase Made This Year!
Absolutely smashing camera! works so well in the taxi (I work as a taxi driver) and its great for security too! It came super quick and was exactly what I wanted! would definitley buy again!

Four Stars
The dashcam is very nice and small, haven’t checked video ye

Excellent picture quality
I was after a car Dashcam that had front and rearview. After looking at various dashcams on amazon and looking at customer reviews on amazon and YouTube I decided to take the plunge and finally purchase the Vantrue N2 pro dashcam. Video quality is excellent, I personally always have sound turned off and the customer service is spot on as I sent an email querying how to switch off the internal rearview camera and vantrue got back to me quite quickly.
I have no complaints about the camera and I feel a lot safer with the dashcam on whilst driving.
I only wish it had the ability of wi fi so that videos could be sent to the mobile. Apart from that it’s great.

A great camera!
A fantastic camera, discrete, and with a long power cable! Cable is easily hidden behind car interior trim and weather seals.

A great and well-made, quality dash cam
This is the first dash cam that I have bought and I did a lot of reading up before taking the plunge and actually buying one. I particularly like the features of the dual camera and parking mode which seem to work very well if you buy the hard wiring kit as well. The wide angle lens captures the whole of the road in front of you from the edges of your windscreen and the quality of the pictures is astounding! You can easily read the numberplates of the cars that pass you or driving in front of you. If you are a taxi driver then this will be invaluable as you can record the occupants of your car and have audio as well. Overall I am very pleased with this and would recommend it.
