Vantrue E1 Pro 4K Mini Dash Cam Front STARVIS 2 PlatePix HDR Night Vision Car Camera Built-in 5G

The media could not be loaded. This tiny but powerful front facing dash cam is amazing. It is tiny (I put a AA battery in the pictures for size reference), compact, and packed full of features like: 4K Video, Wi-Fi, Smart Voice Control, GPS, and much much more. In the box you have the everything you need to install the camera in your vehicle. You have your GPS Adhesive Mount, 2 Electrostatic stickers so you can attach to your windshield, a crobar/pry tool to help you tuck your wire/cable for the perfect clean install, adhesive cable clips, your car charge cable along with an extra USB A to C data cable, and also a Circular Polarizer (CPL) filter as an added bonus to reduce glare and reflection from the windshield. Installation was a breeze and only took about 10-15 minutes. Powering up the unit takes you through the setup process which was simple and intuitive. Please note that I tried using a spare microSD card that I had laying around which turned out to be too slow to keep up with recording 4K video (which the dashcam prompted me with the warning). I then switched to one of the cards recommended on Vantrue’s support site (using SanDisk High Endurance 512 GB) and everything worked like a charm. The dashcam does get quite hot when recording 4K video but the manufacturer assured me that it was normal and that the camera program has a high temperature protection mechanism, and will automatically shut down if the temperature is too high. Driving around the area on a sunny day produced amazing quality video. I’ll try to upload a sample if Amazon will allow…not sure about file size limits (apologies for the tiny smudge on the windshield…forgot to clean windshield prior to recording). I’ve been a long time Vantrue Dashcam user and absolutely love their products. Vantrue support has bee fantastic when needed. They make phenomenal dashcams and continue making them even better! I use Vantrue Dashcams for all our vehicles. They are great and they are built to last, even in the hot Texas Summer! Read more

The media could not be loaded. I’ve been using the Vantrue E1 Pro for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. The camera is small and doesn’t block my view while driving, but the video quality is excellent sharp 4K footage even in foggy or low-light conditions. I took video in SF in low light foggy day. One feature I really like is the voice control. It’s super convenient to just say the command and have it start recording or take a photo while keeping my hands on the wheel. The mobile app works smoothly for reviewing clips and downloading videos directly to my phone, which saves a lot of time. I also installed the included CPL (polarizing) filter and it really helps reduce reflections from the windshield and makes the image look more vivid and clear, especially when driving along the coast. Overall, the Vantrue E1 Pro feels well built, easy to set up, and perfect for capturing scenic drives or daily commutes. I’ve taken it around San Francisco. Highly recommend it! Read more

Impressed! Having tried a competitive product with a big name and it was a train wreck. Same price point. This is a nice presentation, well laid out, app works well and video is kinda easy to get out, on par for what they are all like as for the retrieval process. It’s small enough to be unobtrusive, works as it should, provides decent video, and while I haven’t tried it at night I expect it’ll be on par with others. The polarizer lens helps provide decent video. The cable is long enough without much extra leftover installed in a 2025 GMC Acadia. Having a screen and buttons, while small, is helpful, more helpful than I thought. The really strange and amazing thing is this new idea of using static film (think old cheap phone screen protector) to attach to windshield, then apply the 3m double sticky tape to the film. It allows you to simply remove the film and the mount stays with the film. Says it can be reapplied because it’s not adhesive it’s electrostatically attached to the glass. Yeah I know but it works quite well and I have no idea why. It should just fall off but it doesn’t. I bought a 256gb high impact micro sd card and it works well. There are many settings from flipping image upside down, exposure setting, I can’t list them all but all you’ll need to set it and forget it. I found a remote control to automatically mark a video if seeing an incident although it has voice command built in to do the same thing. Voice stuff seemed a bit sensitive or touchy plus means your interior conversations will be recorded with the video which I don’t want. I turned off the mic and will use the remote to mark anything important for later download. All of these dashcams have an obstacle with reviewing and extracting video. Frankly it’s hokey and time consuming. Why? You have to connect to the dash cams built in WiFi card but the cam doesn’t connect to real WiFi. It’s done this way to speed up review and extracting video vs. Bluetooth. And once you find the clip you have to save it to the non live sd card spot and then sync with your phones photo program. So not for the non technical person. You can also connect this to your computer and get video that way, and with the magnetic mount that’s not too difficult but it’s more work than necessary for what you’ll probably hopefully never need. These cams are like an insurance policy for the worse case scenario. I understand it’s a lot of video to comb through, and it’s the underlying issue as best as I can tell. Upgrading to a faster WiFi card would help I guess but it’s a small package to fit everything into. Eventually someone will figure out the connection and extraction issues but until then I’ll say this is probably as good a unit as you’ll find at this price point. Also note, if you have wireless CarPlay, you’ll have to turn that off so you can connect to the dashcam. Why? You can only use one WiFi connection at a time and CarPlay uses WiFi to do that, and so does the camera (WiFi card in cam). If I could ask for anything more it would be a more streamlined way to review and extracting video. This is a set and forget kind of device not like looking at home security cam footage. Read more

Finally found a great 4k dashcam and love it! Smal excellent video day and night! The wifi is solid and super fast. Plenty of settings and easy setup. The app works grat. Easy to download clips superfast. Have not used the voice commands yet so cant comment on that. The anti glare lens cover really works well also. And the Sony cam is great along with the microphone. Lots of settings take your time. Gps works grat also. So happy with this I bought a second one! Great price and super fast shipping! Love it! Read more
