4K is actually very useful for a dash cam. With the extremely wide angle of dash cams, it’s very difficult to read license plate numbers unless you’re right behind the car in front of you.
Edit: Nevermind you said the exact same thing in the video. Very much agree.
+BTroxTV lol, GMTA 😉👍😄
Dat Name This 4K DR900S is out now! As I read your comment it made sense.
I wonder then which one would you choose between these?
Waylens secure 360 dashcam
DOD 4k US10
DOD R500S
DR900S
Really cool they already adapted to the HEVC on h.265 which is going to make that quality differance on the license plates dudes. Just make sure your video editing software or hardware can run it like they say...
Cool, hopefully they don't have focus issues like blackvue cams have for years tho. I love blackvue but their quality control always concerns me.
Wow two tough choices to think about. Should I go for the Blackvue or Thinkware?
Are you going to address the issue of the adhesive sticking to the window usually causing an sir bubble and attracting attention to the point of contact on the screen.
When is this out? We need updated video please
I want a dash cam with these features:
1. MUST HAVE: wifi to my smartphone and get rid of the screen so that the unit is smaller and doesn't look ugly on my windshield.
2. MUST HAVE: 4K so I can read license plates.
3. MUST HAVE: a rear 4k camera so I can read license plate.
4. Bonus would be Optical stabilization
Have you used dashcams before?
Optimization would be *great* in a DashCam. But really... electronic-stabilization would be more than adequate for it to keep the costs down.
I Liked blackvue DR900S but when is availabe in canada for buying the store.thanks
Phew, I was just about to get the DR750 fitted next month, I'll now wait until the DR990S launches :-)
So if I don't have any 4K screens or devices now would this still be a good camera for me? I like the higher resolution to be able to see license plates. It would also have to come down to price.
curious about the proximity sensor, can you lock a video in manual mode by waving your hand ?
Yep. By default that turns the mic on/off, but you can change it to lock your video instead.
@@VortexRadar thanks for the reply, so i should put it in manual mode then if i see something on the road i wave my hand in front and it will automatically lock that event? . i bought this yesterday based on your review i like how you go into detail. thanks again
I do think Blackvue makes great cams just can't pay that much.
What recording length choices will be available? Losing the original 1/3/5min options on my DR650GW-2ch following updates has driven me mad angry...
I’ve recorded 4 day trips before, now to retain a record of the trip I have to paste together 6000 mins of video clips!!!!
Any chance of auto upload to cloud of events during parking mode such as Waylens have announced, that would be very handy if someone stole your car and dashcam with it.
I don't even know if you will see this but Virginia DOES use strelka photo / radar in Danville Virginia. There is one by the hospital on the bridge. They only have it on sometimes. It's 15 inches tall and about 8 inches wide between the signs.
Could you provide more information? Is your detector alerting to Strelka (which could be a false.. my Redline EX falses to Strelka frequently when the feature is enabled) or do you have some knowledge about the unit itself?
Vortex Radar you can see the system. The cam an whole unit. I will try to get a picture soon
Great, thank you
Since most info indicates speed cameras are still not authorized in the state by any statutes (unless something passed recently) I’m certainly interested in what they are up to.... Maybe they are trying to make some new case law.
Vortex Radar I have the picture and too the other person Danville has camera at literally every light in the city. They have been using them and they mail you the ticket. It will not let me send the pic on UA-cam
Great work with this update on dash cams, love the work you do, keep it up.
Thank you! I've got a bunch more stuff coming up on dashcams including a video going over the best dashcams of the year. :)
Compact 4K cam without monitor. Great! I hope it will better than 10Mb/s & compatible with microSD up to 512Gb.
Very excited about this product! I think I will likely order one as soon as its available. Thanks for sharing!
We need a 4 channel model!
They stopped all support for my DR550GW just after I got mine and got only one update of the firmware. Thinking about the 750s now but when will they discontinue support for those?
That's always a risk with tech products. Maybe you bought it on the tail end of its life cycle. The DR550GW is several generations old at this point. The DR750S is the current model has received a number updates so far. The DR650S also received an update recently as well, even though the 750 is now the current model.
When will this be released?
BV needs to focus on those tags and modify their software to make them clearer.
And any reverse cam needs to be a standalone unit, with its own processor and storage - use wireless to sync their files and GPS info, nothing more.
Also, identify the chipset. Many are not true 4k until upscaled during playback, which is all but useless if the important details are missed.
Will there b IR on the 2 channel. Please consider doing that. I love my 650 2 channel with IR. Might b good idea to start with the IR.
Thomas Statham Right? Their night vision or night enhancer on the 650 is not good at all. It's nearly pitch black. I have been blowing them up on this.
If you want an interior camera with IR you must buy the 650S, however the 750 has better quality, sensor etc but no IR and instead of interior it's a front and rear cam. I want the front cam quality of the 750 or this new one coming out with an interior camera with IR.
Sucks but I might have to buy two systems to get what I want since they give just barely enough to look "good".
And I just got the 750S and this news comes out .. grrr
Ben7seven7 me too.. but it's less that 30 days thinking about returning it... Or I will wait till 2019 for the 4k 60 fps.
is this thing out yet jesus been waiting for it
Same here. You would think Blackvue would give us SOME eta. What other options are available that would be about the same?
If you have a chance, could you ask them if there is going to be a less expensive model without GPS and WiFi like the DR490 that also uses a 4K image sensor? I have a hard time justifying the price of the DR-750S, but a 4K version of the DR490 would be very appealing to me.
+MeIsMyName Great question. Try asking on Instagram. They’re active there.
I will definitely relay that suggestion, thanks!
The price will definitely be worth it after one accident.
Awesome. Thank you!
I would prefer having 60FPS over 4K. Keep a lookout for this at MassDrop- www.massdrop.com/buy/blackvue-dr750s-2ch-dash-camera
Just canceled my order on the 750SH placed two days ago while it’s on sale for $310. I hope It wasn’t a mistake.
Neil W Massdrop.com has it for $275 shipped. No tax
So will it fit in the 750s mounts and make use of existing wiring? Is the rear camera the same as the current 750s? Would one then be able to purchase the front camera to upgrade?
Keith M. Exactly this. I’ve just had a supposed flagship 750 fitted (only released this year?) and heard this is coming out now. What I’d like is to upgrade in the future without ripping all my hardwired blackvue cables out. That’s hard on the car trim to keep doing that.
Hello! Do you have any information regarding the nightime recording quality with this new camara? Does it have any improvements if compared to DR750/650? Thank you!
Sorry, they didn't show off or give me any night time video samples. I'm sure we'll have more info once the camera is closer to production.
Thanks a lot for your answer! Let's wait for BlackVue to reveal any info on this matter! :)
1080p resolution is fine just bump up the bitrate. Resolution doesnt mean anything. Its bitrate that matters. Hopefully 12mb is enough to handle 4k detail. The catch is 30fps you might still have blurry plates. Well will see how good it is.
DigitalErra
Lol OF course it won't be 4K 60fps
White Russian7 4k 60fps with 15mbs is perfect video for dash cams. Now that blackvue is in 4k everyone else will follow.
Patiently waiting 😩
Update: www.blackvue.com/blackvue-news-words-upcoming-dr900s-4k-dashcam/
Blackvue if you’re reading this... would love to get a test unit in Canada!!!
Weekly updates please
Just got the 900s. Paired with a new car. NOT GOOD! The camera will not pair with my cars hotspot which leaves it useless to use as a live device unless parked in my home garage where it isn't needed. Wish this was mentioned in all of the marketing for the device. I have tried Blackvue customer support several times, nothing works. Might be a pairing problem due to the necessity for a 2.4 ghz only connection?
Does anyone have any suggestions?
It is compatible with 5.0 GHz too. It should be able to see and connect to both 2.4 and 5.0 GHz wifi hotspots and then you can connect to it later from your phone or computer. Here's a video showing you how to set it up. It's a bit older now, but it should still give you the general idea. ua-cam.com/video/VVwNUJ7q4uA/v-deo.html
I tried everything on the video. Nothing works?
Sorry to hear that. So long as you're connecting to a wifi hotspot that has an internet connection, it should work.
I actually contacted BlackVue. They told me that my car Hotspot is the problem. The car hotspot works with my iPhone and my iPad, but still can’t get the camera to link up? BlackVue can only tell me that it may be the car. Frustrated?!?!? Don’t know what to do. I have tried everything I have been told to try. Can’t change any settings on car hotspot.
Confused here. BlackVue said the camera was as not compatible with 5?
When will this be out?!? ZERO updates.
Last I heard it was delayed a bit, but I don't know more.
I'm getting my Jeep Trackhawk in about 4 weeks and want to install the DR900S. Hope it's out by March 1st.
They posted an update about it the other day. It's been delayed a bit to improve night time video quality and is expected to be released in Q2 of this year. www.blackvue.com/blackvue-news-words-upcoming-dr900s-4k-dashcam/
Bri5150 looks like they've released today! Just few hrs ago, I saw it on their channel! ua-cam.com/video/sx2QDFY466U/v-deo.html
I really want to love blackvue's dash cams but I have gone through 3 of them over 3 years replacing half a dozen SD cards in me and my wife's car.
What has happened to them?
It is more likely the sd card cant keep up with the dashcam. Sd cards deteriorate over time as they are constantly overighting. I made this mistake before i did some sd research. Plenty of good videos on here telling you what sd cards to use to get the most out of your dash cam.
I was just looking at DR750S too
cant wait till this comes please review it when u get it so i can decide weather its worth the upgrade
Oh you bet! I already have one en route and am super excited to receive it. Videos will be coming. ;)
Yeah i am super excited as well. The price isnt that bad as well. THough it would cost heaps.
Yeah funny thats the exact same price i thought it would be too.,,lol will wait till reviews come out especially vortex then decide weather or not to upgrade but will most likely upgrade.Post ur thoughts as well eugene when u get it.
Very cool! Look forward to owning one
Nice as it looks pretty awesome!
Don’t forget ir version rearview camera
I was just thinking damn, I won’t buy a 750 this week, then he mentioned the 900 A/won’t make the 750 obsolete, Apple stylee and B/ will be more expensive (that’s what different price point means let’s be honest).
Where can we buy it ?
It's not out yet, but it should be towards the end of the month. Stay tuned! I've got one coming in soon to review. :)
Compatible only with 128GB card... I was waiting for 256GB.
PODIAIS TENER CON VENTOSA
I not sure 4K H.265 at that bit rate is even better than 4k H.264 at the same bit rate. There are few sample on Doom 9 forum ( the holy grail website for all encoding/decoding video) suggest at low bit rate H.264 has better details than H.265
I want to see this vs the f800 I need a new dash cam and these are the best!
I think you have a dead pixel on your camera sensor, right around his cheek. Need to go full screen to really see it. :(
+Ben Whittle i do, yeah...
A dead pixel!?? Time to get that new 4K Camera you've wanted for your new Channel Videos!! :D
Hopefully it can handle the new 128 GB micro SD cards.
"new 128 GB"?? LOL.. 256 GB micro sd cards have been out over a year now.
Again these companies are not providing the consumer what we WANT!
2 channel or 3 channel dash cams with the option of having interior cam or rear or BOTH.
There are so many ride share drivers out there including myself that want a quality camera without having to sacrifice features simply because two different series doesn't have what the other does have.
For example these dash cams do not come with IR. The only one that does is the interior camera on the 650S 2 channel.
If you really want to separate yourself from everyone else in the market do something no one else is doing. Offer 2/3 or 4 channel systems at 1080p minimum with IR and Epson sensor.
I don't want to have to buy two separate systems to Frankenstein it together to get what I need. It's ridiculous.
I'm going to have to buy the 650S for just the interior camera and buy the 900S for the front and rear.
What we want or what you want?
There are a number of different dashcams that can deliver what you're looking for. The VanTrue N2 does normal and cabin recording and has IR lights. amzn.to/2kClHHD and it records 1080 outside and inside. There's other dashcams that can do this as well.
You would think blackvue would sell the added cards at a more reasonable price without going to crazy prices to record a decent journey. What happens if your traveling 4 hours and you just recorded over something that happened earlier and you couldn't stop to upload it.
I just want my dashcam to have the ability to capture license plates and show human faces with clarity. My 650S does a decent job but I have to download the raw file and enlarge it in order to see the plate numbers.
Wait for youtube reviews before you invest. Older versions are problematic. As with anything. New that comes out there are always issues and ferware updates.
I posted a question on here a few days ago about the dr900s, blackvue got back at me with the following :
"Dear Customer ,
Good day from BlackVue.
DR900S is releasing in end of March or start of April.
I am sorry we do not have exact date of its release.
You can register yourself on our online website then you will be getting email from us once it release.
www.blackvue.com/my-account/
Thank you
Kind Regards
Blackvue Support Team"
Just wanted to share this with you all
Thank you!
uploads in 1080p but its a 4k dashcam
Right, because my camera shoots in 1080p. Full res 4K clips are linked to in the video description.
thanks mate
So I got fed up waiting for the 900 so I got the dr750 to do until such times. Well if I wanted my car flashing lights all over the place, I guess the fire service would have been an option. Blackvue, surly the blue wi fi light on the side of this is much to bright. Who are you trying to tell the wi fi is on as it's flashing out the passenger side not to mention the unwarranted attention it draws! Ps I still can't get it turned off! Why is the lead on the rear camera not affixed at a right angle the sane as the front camera and why does it stick our slightly? Come on! I know you want to advertise your product but having pittasoft in white print on the front screen isn't great for me. Less print on these cameras as advertising an expensive product on the dash of your vehicle, well I'm not going to say it's stupid but it isn't smart.
Did you try turning off WiFi by default? You can also use a LightDim to cover the light. There’s solutions available...
Vortex Radar, hi, the solution shouldn't be for me to cover the light on a dashcam which is so difficult to turn off. The front white light is easy to switch off in the settings but hardy worth doing as the wi fi flashing blue light couldn't be more of an inconvenience. Doesn't seem to get mentioned in these clips.
4k doesnt help much if its going 30fps...
30fps is the norm for dashcams
I understand your concern, but this should be mitigated by the fact that with 4K the license plates can be read from a longer distance.
My friend got this just awhile ago... I guess every thief know how much is this dash cam. Someone broke in and stole it
Fucckkkkkk i just got my dr750s-2ch :(((
Download the new firmware update that just came out for the 750. It offers a new option for increased video quality thanks to a higher bitrate.
Vortex Radar nice!
Still haven’t received mine yet as i ordered it from amazon but thanks!
Made me feel relieved
You and me both. I just ordered mine.
It will be expensive
10MB/Sec ???? Should I use a 1TB SSD ? 😂
Mbit is not MByte, check wikipedia bit/s.
4K and not in 60 fps?? I'm not gonna buy it :-D
hornetluca It will be 60fps. I got an email from blackvue telling me both the front and rear can run at 60 fps.
4k at 30FPS is terrible.
To be representing for blackvue, this guy is a complete DORK ! Unbelievable ! This is the best guy they could find? He looks like he has watched every episode of spongebob .
Hi there, I am the dork in the video and I thank you for your constructive feedback. As it happens, this was an impromptu interview, without second take, and it's true that I am not the most comfortable in front of a camera. The thing is, I am generally working behind the scene and more into the technical stuff than acting. Now, if you have any pertinent question about the product, I'd be happy to provide answers. Cheers!
Really? Sure he isn't the most charismatic camera personality but he seems to know his stuff which is what matters most. If you're judging people by whether they've watched SpongeBob you have some weird priorities.
Thanks for that, I might add that some people might assume I am a rep for the US market but I am French and based in Seoul, South Korea.
Wil Thieme What is this revenge of the nerds? For you to even respond to a comment i left for someone else lets me know you must be a nerd to ! It is what it is.
+kodiak bear Please don’t be mean or stir up trouble. We’re all in this together.
