A feature-packet yet unobtrusive dash cam

This review is for the Vantrue E1 Dash CamMy initial impression upon unboxing was that this is a quality piece of kit. From the packaging to the unit itself, you can tell that care was taken to give a premium feel.Included in the box was a nice user manual, remote control, power adapter, mounting bracket, warning stickers, extra adhesive pad, polishing cloth, diagram sheet, pry tool, and of course the camera. The pry tool was an especially nice touch, as this is something they definitely didn't

Pros
  • 1.77 x 1.77 x 3.35 inches
Cons
  • Not compatible with all car models

Good build quality, runs hot

Having tried several Vantrue dashcams (X4S, E2 dual, E1 lite, now the E1) I can say they have improved their products with this new generation.The E1 being a 2K camera brings high resolution on a convenient package. The small size makes the camera inobtrusive, but at the same the screen it's too small and the elements on the UI are a little crowded. I guess that's the tradeoff for the convenience of having a small footprint.Another thing that you lose with the small factor is the 'up' button…

Pros
  • China
Cons
  • Lacks advanced features like lane departure warning or collision detection

I’ve had a number of dash cameras and they all have shortcomings. This Vantrue model is better than the rest but it’s not simple to operate, especially with the app.What I like -- small size- excellent video/photo quality- good adhesion to the windshield without the clear plastic "protector”- easy to adjust camera settings from the app, notso easy directly on the camera- magnetic base is excellent- inconspicuous in my vehicleWhat I don’t like- should come with at least a basic micro sd card…

Pros
  • Car Video
Cons
  • GPS not always accurate

Nice product, poor engineering

Nice product, very thoughtful to include a window protector, extra stuff for reapplication.Major problem, living in Florida, it gets hot inside the vehicle, and the screen is attached to the housing with an adhesive that apparently cannot handle it. The screen falls off and dangles by a ribbon cable until I get back in the car to press it back into place. Of course every time it comes off and is reapplied, the adhesive gets weaker.Other than that, great product.Update:It took several days and…

Pros
  • Wireless
Cons
  • Limited storage capacity with maximum of 512GB

Easy Setup / Removable from Mount

Setup on this dash camera is straightforward and easy to follow. Unlike many other electronics these days, they do include an instruction manual that is actually easy to read. I personally did not use the electrostatic mounting option and just mounted it straight to the windshield. The camera is removable from the dock, which is nice when you want to take it down to hide it. While the app supports downloading videos, it is slow like most others, so I do like that the SD-card slot is actually…

very good camera in my review

I like the fact that this camera is a small box shape. It doesn't take up that much space. The picture quality is very good. You get a lot of bangs for your buck with this little camera. It comes with everything you need to install and mount to your windshield.

Pros
  • Wireless Controller, 11.5ft Type C Car Charger Cable and 3.3ft Data Cable, Vantrue Element 1 Dash Cam with GPS Adhesive Mount, Electrostatic stickers and Warning Stickers, Crowbar and User Manual
Cons
  • Video quality not as impressive as advertised

A nice upgrade: my feedback

I have a Vantrue N2Pro, pictures for size comparison. As you can see overall the E1 has a smaller footprint, but larger lense and screen.Where I mounted it to the windshield I can just see the bottom green light, to know that it has power. With that in mind I will use the remote a lot. Both voice commands and the remote work as advertised but I'll probably use the remote more.Setup was easy and so far has remained attached to my windshield through 100+ temperature days. I also like the magnetic

Pros
  • The Vantrue E1 Mini Dash Cam is equipped with a powerful WiFi and GPS system, allowing you to access and view footage wirelessly and track your car's location with ease
Cons
  • Touchscreen can be unresponsive

A very good camera on my review.

I bought the Vantrue E1 sometime in August. Was needing a dashcam and stumbled onto this one. Its small and compact so its not in your way like some other dashcams. It does have WIFI functionality to be able to connect to it. A remote that either can mute, or save an event. The installation was quick and easy, it comes with electromagnetic stickers also making install clean. The camera has been fantastic. Theres a GPS setting which has been useful. The camera has performed very well at night…

At $150 this should be way better

I have owned other vantrue and many other brands, so better, most not. I can tell you this would not be my choice. It completely misses the mark and it's cxon/pro redeeming quality is its size. Yes it will use up to 512 GB mini sd card, but lot of good it does when the picture quality is not very good. Vantrue even has other camera's in this price range i think would be a better choice. They tried to pack on the features, but the features you get are not all as advertised. Not sure who even…

Pros
  • On-Dash Cameras
Cons
  • Voice control feature not accurate

Camera stops functioning.

I believe this camera is seriously underpowered for processing power. The camera does not continuously record. It will record for a time and then stop itself. You have to manually start recording again. While recording the functions are laggy and not responsive indicating not enough processing power.I returned the 1st camera, same exact issue with the second camera. Second is getting returned as well. I even tried reducing the resolution to 1080p, same issue. Issue ocurred on the second camera…

Pros
  • Its 2.5K resolution coupled with night vision ensures that the camera captures high-quality footage, even in low-light conditions
Cons
  • More complex than other dash cams, making it difficult for some users to operate

It’s great! on my review.

The size is perfect for my windshield. It doesn’t hamper my vision. The adhesion feels like it may last forever so know exactly where you want to put it before it installing but that’s where it’s staying. The picture quality is great during day and night and it’s just added security while driving.

Pros
  • WiFi Dash Cam with Free APP: This high end small car camera comes with free APP for Android or iOS smartphones to get a live stream, download videos, track gps data, change settings, edit and share your footage simple.

Cons
  • Expensive compared to other dash cams

A great camera with many options

I’ve used Vantrue cameras before, always satisfied. No different with their new E1 model. It’s compact, attaches to window easily, has too many options to list, but they are all great. It comes in different colors as well. Takes up to a 512k memory card. And did I mention a remote and ability of camera to take verbal instructions? Yes, this camera has it all, and for the money, you get a lot of camera. Highly recommend.

Pros
  • Car Electronics
Cons
  • Limited mounting options
