I decided to buy a quality camera to hopefully avoid those issues, and purchased an earlier Vantrue model (OnDash X3 1440P HD). I have used it daily since 2017; I've put 50,000 miles on my car in the past three years here in Los Angeles, so it does get a lot of use. The Vantrue I bought back then has had none of these problems. When I purchased a new car, I decided to transfer that older model to my wife's car, and purchase a new one for my own new vehicle.
The Vantrue OnDash N2 Pro is what I purchased a couple of weeks ago on Amazon. It arrived in a couple of days. The packaging was clean and bright, as the pictures I took in my office show; it felt like a quality product from the start. This again is not always the case; I ordered one online from a deals site that came in very flimsy, black on white low quality packaging. That one turned out to be not so great a camera.
Setup instructions for the N2 Pro are easy to follow (although in part that may be because I had used the earlier model) and with few English-language typos. Neither of these things should be considered a given!
As you can see from the comparison shot I took in my garage, both cameras are similar, compact size. The N2 Pro (on the right in the photo) is slightly smaller in overall dimensions. The screen area is smaller as well, but it is extremely vivid & clear. Thus I don't have a problem with viewing content, either live video or playing back a recorded file. Since it is quite small, it blends in when you look at the car from the outside. Unless you are specifically looking for it, you likely won't notice the camera, as it almost disappears with the black of the mirror and sensors near where I typically mount it, center windshield, up high.
I purchased the optional wiring harness, so that I could hook it up permanently. I do usually take a dash camera with me on trips, using the included 12 volt adapter and cable. Hooking it up via the wiring harness, though, lets me record any incidents that happen around the car when I'm not present. Vantrue indicates that it won't drain the vehicle battery in the documentation. Obviously, I haven't had a chance to validate that with the new model, but I believe it. I will be experimenting with the capabilities in this area. For example, I enjoyed the footage my previous Vantrue camera took going through a car wash.
The night vision capability is outstanding, recording imagery much better than I can see with my own eyes. This is not a given; I've purchased and disposed of dash cams that had virtually no night vision and were thus useless much of the time.
While I plan to primarily use it for recording the action ahead of me, this Vantrue model allows you to also record what is going on behind you in the rear seat of the car. The wide dynamic range all-lighting-conditions technology in the sensor also allows it to see out the rear window. This would be useful in the event you are rear-ended and need the evidence of what happened. I plan to experiment with that capability more as well, to see which mode I want to use it in.
My only issue is that I had to look up in the printed instructions how to switch between front-facing recording only and the default mode of both front & rear facing recording activated. That done, no problems. Everything else was quite intuitive to set up if you've ever used other dash cams, and certainly if you've every had another Vantrue.
The audio and video quality are excellent, and I've shown people on my team some of the recordings the camera produces. They were impressed with the quality, especially since we work for a surveillance camera manufacturer here in the US, and I think a couple of them probably have bought the same Vantrue model since then.
I am very happy that I chose this model, and again purchased a Vantrue from Amazon again.

I have only been using this for one day. Let me share a few things.
My reason for purchasing this is to have a video and audio record of my rideshare experience to protect me and as evidence in case something bad happens. Having footage of bad drivers is also interesting. In that aspect, this camera seems to work far superior to anything I have seen or read about.
The packaging is very well thought out. Elegant but not excessive. I only mention this because the cam is well protected and since you are buying one of the best dual dash cams... Ultimately I could care less about how it looks and am more into function.... However, it certainly adds a bit of flair and pride in the product and adds to the experience and image of the product. VERY well done Vantrue. I like it a lot.
The manual is well thought out, is in color, and provides information on all functions. The average user should have no problems figuring things out, however some of the text is small, reading glasses required.
Mount: I do like the twist lock feature of the suction cup windshield mount and the way it connects to the cam. Much better than my other two dashcams. I love the way the power connects to the suction cup mount rather than the cam. My first cam had a widespread issue where the power adapter port would separate from the motherboard enough to make it stop working frequently until total failure. Not this one. The only thing I do not like about it so far: The connector is a mini usb port rather than a microUSB port. Only because I have already wired a microUSB port to my rear view mirror area. I have purchased a Micro to mini converter which makes it slightly more bulky, but I do not have to rewire a new cable into the car and it is behind the rear view mirror. The mount is very stable, there is absolutely NO rattling... the video is smoother and the recording sound quality is EXCELLENT!
Picture Quality: I have reviewed some of the footage from the first day, recording inside and outside the car. It did rain most of the day but the images during the day inside were phenomenal, as were the ones out side. (using dual camera mode, which is all I use.) The night pictures illuminated inside the car very well and you could see in the back seat... unlike the others.. even with IR. The outside pictures were very clear even at night.
I have attached a night pic from the inside, with me blocked out and a late day video, but it was very dreary out. The recording had the sound removed and the snip spliced out... so the original was a little better. I will try to add better later, but so far this camera does an excellent job.
Why the N2 Pro? The reason I chose this one was due to the reviews and images shown of the INSIDE camera at night. I had a Nucam, but it did not last and the inside pictures were not even close to clear at night.
Motion Detection: I would like to rate the motion detection. I assume they are talking about the G sensors that automatically lock images so they do not get deleted... such as if you are hit or have to slam on the brakes. There are 4 settings including off and three sensitivities. There is also a parking protection mode. Perhaps I can experiment and bring back my findings here. I can tell you it works, as some images were locked. I had it on medium. I may set it to lower sensitivity. If things change, I will come back and revise the rating.
This camera is smaller than I had anticipated, which is great because it blocks my vision less.
There are quite a few other features including a video port, which do not concern me and they are listed. Nice if you need them or want them.
Legal: I do have signs all over stating that I have camera surveillance in the car. Check your laws.
Support: Register your dashcam, it is easy. I had to ask where the serial number is. They answered within two hours of sending in an email... late night. So far so good. Excellent in fact.
I have not been influenced in any way to provide a good or bad review.
While the shape of the camera is a little odd, it appears as though vantrue has really put a lot of though into it's design... and it really shows from the second you have it in your hand... it actually looks quite good too.
Lastly: a 32GB card in dual dash mode seems to last about 3 hours before overwriting. That being said, I just purchased a 128 GB card that should afford me most of a 12 hour day. Do get a good one.

I have only been using this for one day. Let me share a few things.
My reason for purchasing this is to have a video and audio record of my rideshare experience to protect me and as evidence in case something bad happens. Having footage of bad drivers is also interesting. In that aspect, this camera seems to work far superior to anything I have seen or read about.
The packaging is very well thought out. Elegant but not excessive. I only mention this because the cam is well protected and since you are buying one of the best dual dash cams... Ultimately I could care less about how it looks and am more into function.... However, it certainly adds a bit of flair and pride in the product and adds to the experience and image of the product. VERY well done Vantrue. I like it a lot.
The manual is well thought out, is in color, and provides information on all functions. The average user should have no problems figuring things out, however some of the text is small, reading glasses required.
Mount: I do like the twist lock feature of the suction cup windshield mount and the way it connects to the cam. Much better than my other two dashcams. I love the way the power connects to the suction cup mount rather than the cam. My first cam had a widespread issue where the power adapter port would separate from the motherboard enough to make it stop working frequently until total failure. Not this one. The only thing I do not like about it so far: The connector is a mini usb port rather than a microUSB port. Only because I have already wired a microUSB port to my rear view mirror area. I have purchased a Micro to mini converter which makes it slightly more bulky, but I do not have to rewire a new cable into the car and it is behind the rear view mirror. The mount is very stable, there is absolutely NO rattling... the video is smoother and the recording sound quality is EXCELLENT!

Order on sat and got it on monday afternoon, very speedy delivery.
First unbox of the dashcam got my surprise with the built quality of the dashcam, just like what my friend recommended. Box was well designed and packed, the dash cam itself its design and built with quality housing, camera lens is good too with both dual camera for front and back for in car view. We have the option to ON/OFF in car camera. Both lens quality is good, very clear and sharp video. I have attached a sample clip from my dashcam.
The configuration of the dash cam is very simple to operate, its very easy to mount and dismount if you require to view the video clip. Just a simple press and slot it can be easily remove and mount, love this features.
I might be considering getting the GPS unit for location tracking and speed displaying with simple top up of $20. It's another good thing about Vantrue as they design parts into modular to reduce selling price as some of us may not require of the parts so we do not need to pay extra for something that we do not need to use.
HIghly recommended for anyone looking for a good and simple dash cam with modular add on anytime they required.
