Connecting to the dashcam via the app is really simple. Although the dashcam has a screen, the live preview from the phone made setting up the dashcam position so much easier. Easily view and download the video clips from the app, and downloading clips over the 5GHz wifi is quite quick too. All the settings can also be set from the app, which makes changing settings so much easier than setting on the dashcam itself (though you can still do that). This dashcam will record 3 separate files (front, rear, and cabin), so be sure to get a large memory card.
You might think you don't need a interior cabin camera, but let me tell you, the interior cabin camera is not just for rideshare drivers. Sometimes the police can make mistakes and might accuse you of something you didn't do. But you need evidence to prove your innocence. If the police pulls you over because they think you were looking at your phone while driving but you were not, then you have video proof from the cabin camera proving you were not on your phone. The interior cabin camera angle is wide enough to capture the movements of the driver and passenger, and even backseat passengers (depending on where you install it). Or if the police says you or your passenger weren't wearing your/their seatbelt when you/they actually were, then you have video proof of that as well. Or if you get robbed in the car, you have video of the criminal's face. These things can be hard to prove in court, so having video evidence here will be very useful. Having been burned before because I didn't have interior camera to record my actions to prove myself innocent, I cannot stress enough the importance of protecting yourself these days, whether from the police or from other cars or people, and having this dashcam system will be super useful in proving your innocence.
Only con I have about this is the slow start up. It takes maybe about 7-8 seconds after starting the car and the power port becomes active before the dashcam will boot up. Not a big problem for me though.
Overall, a great dashcam with excellent quality and features, and I'm happy that I've invested in this dashcam to give me the peace of mind knowing I have protection in case an incident happens. You cannot go wrong with this dashcam.
Packaging and First Impressions
The packaging is premium. Every item is well packaged and protected. All 4 lenses have protective plastic over them. The unboxing experience had a premium feel to it.
Install
The install and setup was a breeze from running the wires with the provided tool and instructions, to following the prompts on the screen when powering up the dashcam for the first time. The menu and the app are intuitive to use and not overcrowded with options, giving us the ability to choose which channels to record or turn off and at different resolutions, set sensitivity, turn on/off voice control, mileage statistics tracking etc. We appreciated the reminders along critical install stages to help avoid redos or mistakes and we are glad that there was an extra set of sticking pads provided as we may move this dashcam to our larger vehicle. It’s also very nice to see that Vantrue has thought about installs for longer 3 row suvs. The install instructions for the hardwire kit (purchased separately) were easy to follow as well.
Daily use
The dashcam has performed flawlessly over the last few weeks without a glitch or any frustration in daily operation. The image is great during the day and at night and I feel there is sufficient coverage in the event of an incident. I didn’t really think I would need the 4 channel all around view but it provided an additional sense of security when we can switch to certain parking mode and can leave our vehicle with whatever we are towing parked overnight with a little more piece of mind.
Customer support
Vantrue customer service is where they have left a strong impression; we’ve reached out with questions and they have responded within 24-48 hours with a clear response and a willingness to help. It also appears that Vantrue is keeping up with their firmware updates.
This dashcam has useful features that are easy to use on a daily basis but most importantly, it’s a dashcam that appears to be reliable and that we feel we can depend on.

As far as the video goes, it is super clear and great quality. It gets all the angles I need, including the front, driver and passenger, rear, and rear cargo. The quality is good enough to be able to get license plate numbers and the cameras lenses are wide enough to capture everything you would need. It has lots of other cool features like wifi connection to your phone, gps, speed detection, etc. It has a parking mode but I haven't really used it since I don't have a battery to hook it up to.
I would definitely recommend this camera for those who want to capture both outside and inside. It is perfect if you're driving uber or lyft or if you'd just like to protect yourself from all the bad drivers out there!

I found the night vision to be detailed and clear in low-light conditions, providing clear footage even during nighttime driving. The voice control feature adds an awesome layer of convenience, allowing you to operate the dash cam hands-free, ensuring your focus remains on the road ahead. Additionally, the GPS functionality provides accurate location data, which can be crucial in the event of an accident or dispute, and includes the standard info like the time, date, and license but I found the option to record the speedometer and long/lat and imbed the info the video to very helpful for when the recordings are offloaded from the system.
It took me a couple of hours to have the cables routed and neatly hidden while routing from the back of the car. I don’t know if this would be the same for everyone, but I have a mid-size SUV and went through more trouble than expected to make sure the cables were neither seen nor pinched once everything was close. I have not yet been able to make use of the 24-hour Buffered Parking or Sentry modes as this requires constant power but I hope to get the system wired to the battery at some point for this. When the option is set up with power, you gain the option for automatically recording any incidents or movements detected around your car, once parked.
My biggest complaint with use so far was the SD card restrictions where the system either didn’t detect it at all or complained that it was too slow to use so I had to purchase a new SD card before I could use or access the system at all. I do understand that it’s best in the long run as you wouldn’t want the system to fail due to an incompatible SD card, but it was just an unexpected inconvenience, so I recommend making sure to have a compatible card handy before purchasing the system. I would think at this price point that the SD card would be included, especially if the system requires specific speeds to be compatible with.
I found the menu and controls of the Vantrue N5 to be fairly straightforward with a user-friendly interface. Each camera can be displayed simultaneously or independently based on your view settings. Though keep in mind, that you’d be seeing this from a rather small screen compared to your phone. There are some items on the menus that could certainly do better with a little explanation or offer some detail as to what they are for. (Google is your friend). connectivity, of these options was the built-in WiFi connectivity which allowed for easy access to footage directly from your phone and to change settings without having to use the system menu directly. The WiFi option also allows for OTA updates to the system as taking it down and inside regularly would be a pain.
Overall, the Vantrue N5 is a complete (if not expensive) investment for any driver looking to enhance their safety and coverage on the road. With its comprehensive coverage, advanced features, and ease of use, it can offer peace of mind and protection on any trip, long or short.

There are some items on the menus that could certainly do better with a little explanation or offer some detail as to what they are for. (Google is your friend). connectivity, of these options was the built-in WiFi connectivity which allowed for easy access to footage directly from your phone and to change settings without having to use the system menu directly. The WiFi option also allows for OTA updates to the system as taking it down and inside regularly would be a pain.
Overall, the Vantrue N5 is a complete (if not expensive) investment for any driver looking to enhance their safety and coverage on the road. With its comprehensive coverage, advanced features, and ease of use, it can offer peace of mind and protection on any trip, long or short.

I’ve used/tested a dozen or more dash cams, most of them from Vantrue. This review is based upon a few hours of installing and checking out how it operates. If I have a major change, will make an update to this review.
Photos: unopened box, camera mounted on front window (using cigarette plug) with intent to hard wire soon, and a low resolution snapshot of the screen (actual camera quality much higher).
Pros: First impressions are pretty good. The packaging and components (cords, camera, manual, etc) all feel solid and high quality. The box was complete, having everything that was supposed to come with it.
-Camera: overall first impressions are good, though a bit thicker than some of my other Vantrue cameras, the mounting system is low profile, which gives it an overall smaller footprint. Initial picture quality seems to rival the other top tier Vantrue cams.
-Mounting/Cables- the mounting on this camera is by a self adhesive sticker. In my application, I think this is an upgrade from the traditional suction cup, though I don’t intend to swap it around from car to car. I really like the new magnetic mounting clip (links the camera chassis to the mount), very easy on and off, doesn’t feel like I’m about to crack the mechanism as there are no moving parts. Cables are very solid, high quality feel (see cons also) and in my Honda CRV application are plenty long.
Wi-Fi: I got it up and running in under a few mins. Once linked, it worked solid. Really liked the opportunity to see the videos, and access the camera settings. Way better than punching the small buttons on the camera. Easily accomplished a firmware update (via the Wi-Fi; ie no memory card used or cables needed…nice).
-manual: the English version is well written and easy to understand.
-Vantrue: overall I’ve always had good luck with tech support, thus far I haven’t used them in this camera, but it’s an important pro for me and why I continue to use their products.
Cons: to set the stage, the cons are pretty light so far. I’d say these are more of nice to have or general observations.
Camera- on the camera settings itself, like setting up the date, Vantrue still hasn’t fixed the opposite direction of their buttons (user has to push the up button to go earlier in time, or the down button to go forward in time). To me this is backwards; it’s a minor annoyance, not at all a show stopper.
Mounting: package comes with a thin electrostatic plastic film that goes between the glass and the camera adhesive mount. Functionally it works fine. It’s a bit bigger than probably needed, I had trouble getting all the bubbles out, and though discussed in the manual, we did have to read the instructions several times to understand it’s use. Btw, I think it’s used to help keep the camera adhered to the window, and yet allow a user at some later date to uninstall the whole system without dealing with the difficulty of the adhesive being directly to the window glass.
Cables: listed as a pro because the cables really do seem high quality gear; as a con, they are slightly thick, making it a bit more interesting to route the rear camera cable. Almost afraid to list it as a con, I don’t want the quality to go down at all… I like the high quality gear… I just note routing is a bit more difficult.
Auto off: I’m not sure what it would take to incorporate a low voltage auto off feature or timer might be a huge engineering hurdle … Vantrue doesn’t seem to put this feature on their cameras … I use the Vantrue hard wire cable for this, not big of a deal since I need to hardwire anyway, but if it was organic to the camera itself, I think having it would be listed as a pro.
Conclusion: Im initially really liking this model. I think Vantrue has incorporated all of the best features into this camera. Is it perfect? Probably somewhat depends on the users needs. I like my old Vantrue cameras, but if this model continues to impress, I’ll probably upgrade my other 2 cars. This system hits pretty much all the items I’m interested in.

1. The ability to connect to a smartphone and view all footage on the smartphone screen. Even though the screen of a dashcam is big, it's much more convenient to do that on a bigger smartphone screen. So you can also send a video or screenshot to someone. For me this is a killing feature. Connecting to a smartphone is really fast and easy. Just follow the steps in the instruction.
2. It has 3 (!!!) cameras - front, rear and cabin camera.
3. It has literally everything you need to install a dashcam - all the cables, stickers and even dust-free cloth. It was really easy to install this thing. But… I wish they would include a microSD card.
4 .The device looks and feels very impressive - the screen is large, the buttons are physical, which is an advantage for me. Everything is assembled well and solidly - the device looks expensive.
5. Picture quality is fascinating and it looks really clear on the PC monitor. You can clearly see all the details happening on the road, and most importantly, car numbers are read perfectly
Overall, Vantrue Nexus 4 Pro is a solid choice for anyone who values safety. Yes, the device is not cheap but it is worth every penny.
