I am sharing my experience to make others aware their android phone may not support every function of the Blackvue dashcam DR750G . It was installed when I purchase my new care July 2021 – from the start it would record front and back but it would not play the front camera, only played the back camera. So I asked for help to resolve the issue. After more then six months of going back and forth with Blackvue, autoextreme and the dealership the issue could not be resolved. Also imagine my surprise being told by the blackvue support team that they...
Read more could not help me any further (after multiple email workarounds) and telling me to deal with Australia !!! I had no idea that HQ Korea was responding to me. However once I got an Australian support worker I must admit he was very understanding and he really did try to help me fix the issue and concluded that I should consider buying a more expensive phone. I told them my Samsung A21 was only 2 years old and I have the RING app on it and there are no issues. I finally got refunded and had the dashcam removed. Now I have a Uniden iGO 80 and it works good on my Samsung phone (the cheap one!). When we bought the dashcam, we were not warned that it may not work with our phone. Also we found the dashcam was draining the car battery as we had numerous low battery warnings from the car which alarmed me. Now the blackvue dashcam is gone - no more car battery issues. I was disappointed by the whole experience but by no means am I saying the blackvue dashcam isn’t great and doesn’t have quality. I am just giving awareness to the issues/pain you may face if you don’t have the right phone. I recommend if you can try before you buy.Purchased in at Mazda Dealers for $800.
Had 2 already and 2nd one just died both in less than a year. Won't be getting another
My first one stop working after a few months. Got it replaced through warranty now the 2nd one has died too both in less than a year. I don't think I'll be getting another even through warranty.

I purchased the LTE version of this device (DR750-2CH LTE) to connect my car's head unit to the cloud (mostly for Spotify). It has a limit of 1 wifi connection, but that was fine for my requirements.
I was initially disappointed with myself because I was told it did not pass through internet to wifi devices, and I had not done enough research. The cloud features are good but was not worth paying $150/year for a 4G SIM card alone.
Much to my pleasure, I had updated the firmware and found the internet is being passed to my head unit! So now I ...
Read morehave a cloud connect dashcam and also a cloud connected head unit. Very happy. It is and advertised as FHD so don't expect to vision to be ultra clear. If you need plates, get a an ultra HD version. You should probably get a Battery Pack for it. I didn't and opted for the Power Magic Pro instead. It means I have to avoid some features. For example, I've configured my setup to cut out at 6 hours and I have it set to timelapse to save battery.Purchased in at eBay for $550.

How easy was it to set up and use this camera?
Fiddley but doable. I also installed a hard wiring kit so it works while the car is parked.
How would you describe the quality of the recorded footage?
Excellent. I did have a bit of glare from the dash on the screen but I fixed this by getting some polarised lenses for both cameras.
How satisfied are you with the connectivity of the dash cam?
Completely dissatisfied. It connected to the cloud (via wifi hotspot) once and never again. I've followed tech supports dirrections and they can't figure it out either. Keep going around in circles trying the same fixes.
Now my phone won't connect via wifi anymore either.

After posting a very negative review, BlackVue management reached out to me personally and went to a lot of trouble in negotiating a suitable outcome with Melville Hyundai car dealership, fully replacing the camera, and spending a significant amount of time running over it with me.
I feel my complaints were truly heard and I’m very appreciative that they dedicated so much effort into fixing the situation. Throughout the process they communicated with me regularly - keeping me constantly updated as to where things were at.
In my opinion, through this, the Blackvue team has demonstrated the pinnacle of good customer care.
Congratulations BlackVue you have a convert in me!

Only had this camera for a few months.
When I did need it the dates where all wrong and to change it all files need to be deleted making it completely useless.
What a piece of s##t.

Read moreWe are sorry to hear you have had these problems. We are not certain what would be causing the camera to record in that manner. If you can please advise on the below it will give us insight into what is going on. For the recording issue are you able to advise if the car was driven that day or was it parked? Can you also advise what is the power source for the camera? Would it be possible for a screenshot of the recording gaps be emailed through to our support team so that this can be looked into further? support@blackvue.com.au The "Direct WiFi already in use" message will occur when a second device is trying to connect to the camera while a device is already connected. The biggest culprit to cause this issue is a smart watch as they try to mimic what network that phone is connected to. If you have a smart watch please disable the auto-join option for the BlackVue network in the phones WiFi settings. If the issue still persists please advise what smart devices are near or in the vehicle when the message occurs. Best regards, Chaim BlackVue Australia 08 6267 5167

Just upgraded my Blackvue to DR750S dual channel after rear camera was damaged in accident My 650 dual was 6 years old Bullet proof build and ease of use
The 750 click into existing holders from 650 so installation was seamless
I am hoping will get similar life from this investment
Interface is same so I am used to it and confident to operate it
Image quality has improved with new sensors especially low light rear is now 1080 as well can easily read number plates and see faces in both cameras
Will revert with further update

Hi Garry,

Read more While the cloud platform does have a free account available it does have limitations on the minutes of live view per day and the amount of remote playbacks per month that can occur. These limitations are outlined on the free account plan and only apply to the cloud connection. Accessing the camera through WiFi has no limitations applied to live view or video playback. We do understand that these limitations can be frustrating and with feedback like this we are able to communicate this with the manufacturer so that positive changes can be made to the BlackVue cloud service.

Hi SJ,
We are sorry to hear that an unauthorised person has accessed your system....
Read moreWhen purchasing from a dealership the units will come with the default password 'blackvue'. While this is a convenient password for initial access it is definitely not the most secure. We would definitely advise altering the password to have a mixture of letters and numbers to create a strong password. To further strengthen the unit's security you can turn off the WiFi by pressing the WiFi button on the system. While this could get annoying to constantly do, you could also alter the unit's firmware settings to disable the WiFi Auto Turn on and enable WiFi Auto Turn off. This will automatically turn the unit's WiFi off when it detects no WiFi activity for 10 minutes. For someone to access the unit through direct WiFi they will need to be in close proximity of the camera (usually around 5 meters) and have access to the units password. Once someone has connected to the unit's WiFi they will be able to save video files and alter firmware settings. If the WiFi has been disabled on the unit then the only way someone could retrieve video files would be to have physical access to the camera. If any assistance is required with altering these firmware settings feel free to reach out to our support team on the contact number below. Best regards, Chaim BlackVue Australia 08 6267 5167
Thanks so much for completely obvious information that I already knew . The password was hacked off the Blackvue website not from me . They filmed me and used that footage in disgusting videos online ...
Read morethat police are looking into now so expect a call and from my solicitor. I was told all this by your laconic guy in Perth who didn’t even want my name or car to certify or help . Don’t worry anyway as I had to sell the car as it was also vandalised and run off the road oh I got fab Blackvue footage but guess what ??? You cant read the number plate . So the only time I really needed your piece of crap equipment to work it didn’t it failed me miserably . So the car and your crap cameras are someone else’s problem now . Shame on you . Oh and “ sorry “ mean zilch . But hey sorry for the bad review eh ?And you thought I didn’t change the password ??? That’s just insulting and rude . Avoid them folks
Easy to install (tucked the cable in behind roof trim, behind rubber seal of A-Pillar, under the dash, and then tucked under centre console so that 12V Plug could be inserted in rear seat 12V Accessory Socket)
Tried various recording options and eventually settled for 720p so that 3min recordings could be made. If you choose the higher quality settings (1080p), recordings are 1min in duration....too many.
Software is easy to use and the only issue I have encountered is sometimes my Phone won't connect to the Dashcam Wi-Fi for transferring of recordings.
Purchased in at Repco Online store for $300.

Hi,
I have a DR750S installed a year or so. When I switch off the engine the camera would switch off itself and when I restart the engine, it would so likewise. For some reason, now it keeps recording even when I switch off the engine. I can see a green light that keep blinking when the engine is off. Can you help. Thanks Vernon

I had a new BLACKVUE DR 900 2CH PLUS fitted to my 2021 Audi RSQ3 yesterday from a trusted dealer who has done heaps of work on my cars over the years but the wifi connection keeps getting kicked because the Audi MMI system over rides the Blackvue.

Details
With an RRP of $986, the BlackVue DR750S is undoubtedly one of the higher-end offerings when it comes to dash cams. It’s equipped with a host of features to help justify the cost, though.
Its 1080p Full HD Dash Cams are available in either 1 channel (front camera) or 2 channel (front and rear camera) options. The brand claims that their quality is enhanced by Sony STARVIS sensors, which work well in low light and can be used at night to pick up an accurate level of detail.
This car cam also features Sport Mode and Extreme Mode, both of which record surroundings at a high 60 frames per second. For even more precision, the in-built GPS function adds location and speed data to videos.
The BlackVue DR750S automatically switches to Parking Mode when you turn off your ignition. While this mode won’t automatically record footage, it will write it to the memory card if the dash cam detects motion or an impact. However, keep in mind that activating Parking Mode requires an external battery pack (called a Power Magic Battery Pack) or a hardwiring kit (Power Magic Pro).
In-built WiFi and cloud compatibility with BlackVue's Over The Cloud makes it easy to connect your dash cam to your smartphone or tablet. You can also download the BlackVue Viewer for Windows or Mac, if you’d prefer your playback on a larger screen.
