I saw that one on my google searches. Glad to hear you're having a positive experience with it. Any shortcomings or things you wish they improved on? And is reading license plates an issue at all, particularly while everything's in motion and not just stationary?

They have been promising cloud features but they have not come through with it. I am disappointed because of that. I have not played much with trying to see license plate. I believe the play back app on my computer is able to slow down and pause video and then able to zoom in to see license plate. I haven’t used it at all since I haven’t need to. The video quality is excellent however. I will look into the videos when I get a chance and see if I can see the license plates

I have a Blackvue in both of my cars, and my parents have a Blackvue as well. A friend of mine liked the dash cam in my car so he bought one for own cars. My boss uses Blackvue for the company vehicles after seeing mine.
My Lexus is350 750s 2ch
my Subaru 500gw -HD
parents NX 650s 2ch
work vehicles 650gw 2ch
friends m3 650gw 1ch
I love how easy they are to set up, view videos, and download. I do it all on my phone. My camera on the Lexus also has a cloud feature which is nice, although I haven't really played with it too much. With Blackvue, it's pretty much set and forget. Never worry about not having recordings, super easy to find.
I had a blacksys in the Lexus before. I had so many issues with it. It would record some then have massive missing sections. All while driving. The lights on it were stupidly annoying at night, and the live view wasn't anywhere near as smooth or "live" as the Blackvue. Every so often I'd catch it not recording. It wasn't settings, idk what war going on with it. That pissed me off so much that I returned it and bought the Blackvue. 0 issues.
