BlackVue DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS Dash Cam | 4K And 4G In Perfect Harmony

The flagship just got an upgrade, introducing the new BlackVue DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS! This new FRONT + REAR 4G LTE-enabled dash cam system represents the latest upgrade from dash cam giant BlackVue to their previous DR970X-2CH-lTE dash cam series. The new PLUS series is designed to push their 4K recording to the next level with an unprecedented amount of detail. At its core is the newly integrated Sony STARVIS 2 sensor.

This ground-breaking technology captures two images simultaneously, one with a low gain level set to the bright region and the other with a high gain level adjusted to the dark region, and combines them to create a perfectly clear and balanced image.

After activating the INCLUDED BlackVue 4G LTE SIM, you're connected to your dash cam 24/7. No matter where you are in the world, you can remotely monitor your vehicle live with its remote live view, receive motion and impact alerts, check current and event map locations, and supply 4G mobile hotspot functionality for up to five devices!

Aside from its impressive LTE features he DR970X also comes loaded with all the additional features you'd expect from a flagship dash cam, such as parking surveillance mode, seamless app pairing, 5GHz built-in Wi-Fi, cloud features, GPS, and Bluetooth.

Front + Rear recording with constant connectivity is the total package—a great option for parents of teen drivers, company vehicles, or anyone else that wants to know the comings and goings of their vehicle. Read on to learn more!

What's New?

Sony STARVIS 2 sensor

All DR970X-PLUS front cameras now feature the new STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensor, which greatly improves sensitivity in low-light and high-contrast areas.

Improved ISP tuning

BlackVue's own refinement to the image sensor processor, enhancing its ability to capture intricate details like license plates in low-light conditions, even when headlights cause reflections on vehicles.

2x the event buffer

The DR970X-PLUS models now feature a 10-second buffer, up from 5 seconds for previous models. Meaning auto event triggers record twice as much.

HEVC/H.265 codec

Higher-efficiency video coding compression algorithm better preserves details and also allows for recording at a higher bitrate.

Enhanced 4K Quality

As seen in the comparison footage, the 4K recording quality is enhanced by the Sony STARVIS 2 sensor, providing superior low-light sensitivity and a much wider dynamic range than the previous generation. A faster f/1.7 aperture lens allows in more light, reducing blur and capturing details sharply. The enhanced image signal processing delivers exceptional clarity, especially in night and high-contrast scenes, while the HEVC/H.265 codec allows higher-quality recordings at increased bitrates, ensuring every detail is vividly captured.

BlackVue DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS Dash Cam | Parking Surveillance Modes Information

3 Native Parking Surveillance Modes

The DR970X can be hardwired to your vehicle's fuse panel for Parking Surveillance Mode with the included hardwiring kit or optional B-130X battery back. The DR970X will switch to Parking Mode automatically when vehicle ignition is turned off. Parking Mode comes in 3 variations.

Motion

Triggered when the sensor detects movement (marked “P” in the file list).

Impact

detected by the accelerometer/G-sensor (marked “E” in the file list)

Time Lapse Mode

Records continuously at 1FPS. 1-minute Time lapse Parking Mode video = 30 minutes real time coverage. Impacts initiate a buffered Event video.

Built-in Impact & Motion Detection

While on the road, the built-in accelerometer (G-sensor) can detect sudden changes in speed or impacts. When parked, the DR970X can also detect any visual movements around your vehicle. These events are automatically tagged and saved. If a cloud connection is present, you'll have the ability to receive alerts and view the clips from both computer and mobile device.

More Features & Information

The DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS is of course still fully functional as a 'typical' dash cam, recording at all times when you drive, whether you choose to utilize the optional LTE / Cloud features or not:

  • When plugged in to your standard power outlet in the vehicle, the system will still power on and off with the vehicle, automatically recording audio, video and GPS speed & location at all times as you drive.
  • For motion detection ("parking mode") recording, the DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS can be hardwired directly to the vehicle's electrical system via the included direct-wire cable, a new value-added feature of the BlackVue "X" series. No need for a separate Power Magic Pro (although you can still use the Power Magic Pro if you desire). Alternatively, the DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS can also be powered by the BlackVue B-130X Battery Pack instead of your car battery while the vehicle is parked.
  • All normal driving and parking mode recordings are automatically stored locally on the internal BlackVue memory card (64/128/256 GB options available). Once the memory card is completely 'full', only the oldest video file on the card is overwritten as each new video file is created (this is known as loop recording).
  • The memory card can be removed and plugged in to your PC or Mac using the included microSD to USB adapter. This is an easy way to do a bulk download or backup of all your videos.
  • The DR970X-2CH-LTE-PLUS does not have a screen on it from which to play back recorded videos from the memory card. Thankfully, the recordings can be accessed via a direct WiFi connection. You can connect to the 750X with your smartphone the same way you would connect to a WiFi network at home or at Starbucks, then use the free BlackVue app to view and download your recordings directly from the camera.
  • Audio recording, on by default, can be disabled temporarily, or turned off completely by default.
  • GPS speed display can be disabled from being visible in your video recordings.
  • Everything you need to use the system is included in the box: front camera with adhesive windshield mount, BlackVue memory card, plug-in power cable, optional direct-wire power cord, etc.

A Note on Memory Cards

All BlackVue dashcams include a BlackVue-branded 64, 128 or 256 GB memory card. While the memory cards are removable and the card slots will accept other brands of memory cards, we strongly suggest the use of only BlackVue memory cards in the BlackVue dashcams, as the use of a non-BlackVue memory card may cause performance issues and may void your manufacturer’s warranty.

BlackVue OEM memory cards are industrial-grade VNAND-type microSD cards and are designed and tested to withstand the extreme temperatures, vibrations and the constant read/write cycles of high quality dashcams. Typical consumer-grade memory cards such as those from SanDisk are simply not up to the task. Stick with the OEM BlackVue memory cards to ensure your dashcams are always recording when it matters most.
