Dashcam BlackVue DR650GW-1CH

Two digital cameras and parking mode. Built-in GPS and Wi-Fi modules.

The BlackVue DR650GW-1CH recorder can be considered a premium solution. Thus, in the configuration of the device, the user will find two digital cameras with excellent recording quality and an extended set of functionality. Both can record video in resolutions up to FullHD, and the viewing angle is 129 °. The built-in GPS module provides for fixing the coordinates and speed of the car while traveling, and the Wi-Fi module allows you to connect to the device using portable equipment, such as smartphones, tablets, etc. Of the other features, parking mode with a motion sensor deserves attention.

The model from the well-established Korean company BlackVue is perfect for concealed installation. A very compact holder with 3M tape and no display makes the DR650GW-1CH a miniature device. Therefore, its presence on the windscreen will be minimally distracting, and you can install it anywhere.

Sony sensor for quality shooting

The BlackVue DR650GW-1CH is equipped with an Exmor photosensitive matrix, developed by Sony specifically for DVRs. The video recording resolution is 1920x1080 pixels, as it should be for a model in its price category. The manufacturer used high-aperture optics with anti-reflective glass, which improves night shooting. The viewing angle of the lens is 129 degrees — quite an acceptable value.

Extended capabilities

The built-in GPS-module with a location accuracy of up to 5 metres displays the current speed, binds it to the record, and records all the coordinates of the car's movements, which can be seen through the software (included) with display on Google Maps. In addition, the video from the recorder can be viewed via Wi-Fi on a smartphone. Also, using a special mobile application, you can manage the settings of the recorder and save the video files shot by BlackVue on your smartphone.

What is the use of a motion sensor?

The built-in G-sensor will be relevant in emergency cases. When it is triggered, the file will be instantly protected from automatic deletion during loop recording. And the sensitivity of the G-sensor can be adjusted along three axes.

The BlackVue DR650GW-1CH does not have a built-in battery, but there is enough power from the capacitor to shut down correctly when the power is turned off. Also note that the operating range of the recorder is one of the widest — from -20 to + 60 ºC.
