Over the years I've captured everything on dashcams from track days, to near-miss accidents, and security footage. Thankfully I've never been in a crash, but if I ever need footage from an impact I know I can rely on BlackVue to deliver it with crisp audio and video quality, as I've personally had one for over 5 years!!

Whenever I need footage I just open up my app and download what I need. I've even used the Live feature to view my car's surroundings from anywhere as I have it connected to various Wi-Fi setups at my home and the store. 

______


4K video and Wi-Fi connectivity

The DR970x is the top of the line BlackVue Dashcam featuring 4K video recording, Cloud access via Wi-Fi, and built-in GPS.

Both front and rear (optional) cameras pack back-illuminated Full HD Sony STARVIS™ image sensors for best image quality under any light. Record fluid videos at a wide 146° view angle Front, and 131° view angle Rear.

This stealthy dashcam also comes with built-in GPS, Wi-Fi and native Parking Mode support via included hardwiring cable to protect your vehicle battery.

Full HD Cloud Dashcam

With the free BlackVue Cloud service, check on your car from anywhere, anytime.

Receive Push Notifications on your phone whenever the dashcam detects an impact on your parked vehicle, and see for yourself with Remote Live View. Even better, let BlackVue upload critical footage—such as break-in or hit and run—in real time to the Cloud with Live Event Upload.

Play and download videos from your dashcam or the Cloud from anywhere and back up important videos to the free Cloud storage.

Enjoy Two-way Voice Communication with the driver from the app through the BlackVue’s integrated speaker and mic. 

Native Parking Mode with included Hardwiring cable

DR970X Series can be hardwired to your vehicle’s fuse panel for Parking Mode, without requiring optional accessories. The dashcam will switch to Parking Mode automatically when vehicle ignition is turned off. Voltage cutoff and timer can be set in the BlackVue App.

Parking Mode accessories support
DR970X Series is also compatible with all BlackVue Parking Mode Kits and Batteries.

Built-in Speaker, Impact Sensor and Motion Detection

Speaker: your dashcam tells you when it turns on, shuts down or detects errors.

Accelerometer: detects impacts to trigger Event recording. Enables Parking Mode* when stationary for 5 minutes.

Automatically tags video files: While driving, the built-in accelerometer (G-sensor) detects impacts and sudden changes in speed. While parked, your BlackVue also detects visual movements around your vehicles (in Motion + Impact detection mode).

Use the filters in the BlackVue App and Viewer: BlackVue tags all videos (Normal, Event, Parking Mode, etc.), so that you can filter them and quickly find the ones you need in the BlackVue Viewer (Windows, Mac OS, Web) or the BlackVue App (Android, iOS).

Manage Videos Easily with the BlackVue App and Viewer

The BlackVue App (iOS/Android) and Viewer (Windows/Mac OS) are free to download and use.

Both allow you to change settings and review videos sorted by time and type (Normal/Event/Parking).

With the BlackVue App, connect via Wi-Fi to your dash​cam to retrieve videos on the spot.

Just what I was looking for.

I was looking for a simple, reliable, forward facing camera that had good resolution. This camera ticked all these boxes, was discreet behind the rear view camera and has an easy to use interface with my phone. Great piece.
