Vantrue S1 Pro AI Dash Cam Front and Rear Dual 1440P Dash Camera w 2 7K STARVIS 2

Vantrue S1 with the Vantrue S1 Pro because of many new features, especially the ability to review and download the videos and photos onto my mobile phone. The cameras and cables were nicely organized inside an attractive package. I had to removed the existing cables because the new cameras had the USB-C connectors. Fortunately, I was able to use the old cable as a lead and pulled the new USB-C cable through the headliner of my Mini-Cooper in less than an hour. It took quite an effort to remove the old cameras because the 3M adhesive tapes. Once the new cameras were mounted, I was able to download the app on my phone and it was set up within minutes. The app set up was very simple by following the prompt step-by-step. I reviewed the videos and photos after the first week and found the quality was excellent for the ones captured during the day and very good during the night except the car trailing mine with its high beam activated. The cameras' wide angle lens captured a good field of view without much distortion. The camera would lock in the Event Recording Mode as if you had a collison. Since MIni-Cooper has a short wheelbase and relatively stiff suspension, the factory default setting of the G-sensor in all directions was too sensitive. As such, the cameras would trigger the Event Recording mode when my car hit a large bump on the road. After reducing the G-sensor sensitives a couple of trials, the nuisance triggered recordings have been greatly reduced. I also like the new voice assistance command capability to use voice to control the cameras after learning and remembering the exact phrases to use. The GPS function in the app maps out the entire trip with elapsed time and speed travel during the journey. Even though I enjoyed using my old Vantrue S1 for the past few years, I do like the added features of the S1 Pro much more. I did not hardwire the power source. Therefore, I cannot use the parking mode or have any insight on it. Perhaps, down the road, I may consider that option. In summary, I am very happy with my purchase of a great product and good value on a very nice front and rear dash camera system. Read more

I had this installed professionally and it has been fantastic. This dash camera system has performed exceptionally well. I have mine hardwired into the ignition, allowing it to activate automatically whenever the vehicle starts. Having both front and rear cameras provides significant peace of mind, as it continuously captures the activity of surrounding traffic. While I have already recorded several instances of erratic driving by others, fortunately, none of these incidents have impacted my vehicle. The image and video quality are very good; clear and easily accessible. The wireless connectivity feature is particularly convenient, as it allows for direct downloads to a smartphone. Additionally, the camera supports voice commands and a parking mode that triggers photo capture if the vehicle is disturbed while stationary. Read more

I have been a vantrue user since 2018. I started out only using the Vantrue N2 Pro and since I really like the quality of the picture inside and outside I decided to try the S1 4k front and rear camera in 2023. I really liked how clear the video was and how easy it was to see little details like license plates. One thing that I think is overlooked is the ability to identify a driver in an accident. For some people it may have occurred where a driver may claim someone else was driving to their insurance and a number of problems could arise. However with the quality and detail the video was able to capture, I avoided a headache and was able to claim 0% fault for an accident that the driver made very difficult to get resolved until I gave my insurance the video. After this incident I purchased 2 more S1 4k front and rear cameras and made sure all of our vehicles had them. As great as they have been, recently while driving, one of the cameras actually went completely black and refused to turn on or record. The sd card was fine I was able to access all the video before the camera failed but it was disappointing to have such a great camera fail. After some thoughts about whether or not to purchase another one, I decided to check what the warranty on the camera was and sure enough I was lucky enough to be 20 days from its expiration. I contacted the customer support and they were very easy to deal with. Most of the conversation was through email but I still believe it was handled in a timely fashion. The customer support gave me a few suggestions to try to see if the camera would reboot or reset however they were unsuccessful. Unfortunately the camera was discontinued but the person that was helping me was able to help me upgrade to the S1 Pro 2.7k with almost no additional cost. This camera has all the best features of the previous generation and now with the ability to view the video on your phone, has made it all the more impressive. I am very happy that the camera is now able to take a 512gb sd card. Too little memory was one of my biggest if not my only concerns with the previous generation. I have test the camera out for a little over a week and the quality as well as the clarity has not diminished but has really improved. It is a really convenient feature that I can download a video directly from the camera to my phone and to top it all the download/ transfer speed is very fast. I strongly recommend Vantrue dash cameras to my family and I plan to give a few to my relatives. Even if you have doubts I believe their warranty claims process was one of the easiest I have ever had to deal with. I strongly recommend the Vantrue S1 Pro but if this is not the camera for you I advise you check out their other cameras as well. Read more

Bought2 of these for our new cars. Great cameras. Lots of features. Can be tricky/confusing in the menus. Too much going on there. I got tired of all the AI alerts and disabled them. Easy to install and get running. Very nice picture quality even at night. Be sure to get a high capacity SD card and I turned off all of the snapshots. It will fill you card quickly and if you're recording, you don't need snapshots. Read more
