BlackVue DR970X-2CH LTE 4K Front + Rear Dash Cam

We recommend the original DR970X-2CH LTE if you want 4K front recording and built-in cellular connectivity in one camera. This front-and-rear kit includes a 64GB card, 6m rear cable, both power cables and a BlackVue SIM card. Activation, ongoing data and any applicable Cloud charges remain separate.

4K Front + Full HD Rear

Built-in 4G LTE

64GB Card Included

Record two road views with the original 4K LTE model

The front camera uses an 8MP CMOS sensor to record 4K UHD at 30FPS through a 155° diagonal view. The rear camera uses an approximately 2.1MP Sony STARVIS sensor for Full HD at 30FPS with a 139° view. This is a front-road and rear-road kit; it does not include an interior infrared camera.

Choose local access or a connected setup

Built-in Wi-Fi lets you review nearby recordings and adjust settings in the BlackVue app. Built-in GPS adds location and speed data when satellite reception is available. Remote Live View, notifications and uploads require continuing camera power, an account, suitable current service and working internet access.

A BlackVue SIM card is included; activation and ongoing data charges remain separate. Check current plan terms, coverage and the camera’s regional LTE version before relying on a cellular connection. Local microSD recording does not require an active cellular plan.

Plan power for parked recording

The included hardwiring cable enables parking recording with the camera’s voltage cutoff and timer when correctly installed and configured. A switched cigarette-lighter socket stops supplying power after ignition off. The camera needs a maintained power source to keep recording or connecting while parked.

For a separate parking reserve, we recommend our PowerCell 8 with the correct output lead for the original DR970X LTE. Check the exact cable and vehicle before installation; an older DR750 LTE power lead is not interchangeable just because it looks similar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the LTE Plus or Plus II model?

No. This is the original DR970X-2CH LTE. Use its exact firmware and accessories; Plus or Plus II sensor, HDR and larger-card claims do not automatically apply.

Does the SIM card include an active data plan?

No active data allowance is promised with this kit. A BlackVue SIM card is included; confirm activation requirements, current plan options and coverage before ordering. Third-party SIM use requires a compatible regional camera, supported network and correct setup.

Can it connect while the ignition is off?

Only while it has continuing suitable power and a working internet connection. Use the included hardwiring cable with appropriate cutoff settings, or a compatible battery setup. Runtime and remote availability vary with power, settings, temperature, reception and service.

What rear cable and card are supplied?

A 6m coaxial rear cable and a 64GB card are included. Measure your routed cable distance before ordering. Use compatible cards up to 256GB and firmware for the exact original DR970X-2CH LTE model.

Can locked recordings be overwritten?

Copy important recordings to a separate device promptly. Loop recording reuses storage, and event-file protection is limited by capacity and settings. Back up recordings before changing time or image-quality settings; saving those changes formats the card, including locked event files.

What condition, warranty and returns apply?

It includes our 12-month BlackboxMyCar warranty and follows our normal warranty and returns policy.

Looks Like new

Looks Like new. Packaged like new. Awesome warranty,. My 3rd Blackvue dash cam, started with dr650 2ch, then 900 2ch and now the 970x lte refurbished.

What an awesome 4K resolution! My third BlackVue

What an awesome 4K resolution! My third BlackVue.. an upgrade from my 750XL LTE! ❤️

Thanks for the review, Roseller! We really appreciate your continued support across multiple BlackVue models. Glad to hear the DR970X-2CH LTE Plus II has been a great upgrade and that you’re enjoying the 4K resolution.

Install was the most difficult part if you plan to DIY it.
The front camera captures amazing video. Low light or otherwise. It’s a little large because of the built-in LTE. If you need it, you know you need it.

The back camera is perfectly suitable for parking events, motion detection, and such. It’s not the most phenomenal image, but it will let you make out a license plate that bumps you. Or clearly show you anyone too close to your car.

I like the security light that faces outside. It’s bright enough to be noticed from a distance. My Mom noticed it right away from about 150 feet away. It’s small but mighty!

I am happy with this unit and feel like I can trust the company’s staying power. The space for always-on security units is limited. I had OwlCam, while they were around. It burned badly. So I overly researched BlackVue.

I feel good in purchasing from them. Great product, working app, and fast downloads of event clips. Granular settings make it easy to fine tune it.

Works with T-Mobile Prepaid SIM cards or BlackVue SIM cards

This device is GREAT ! In my experience, this device will only work with a T-Mobile "Prepaid" SIM card, or a BlackVue SIM card in North America. I am unaware if an AT&T SIM card will work with this device. Save yourself some trouble and do your research to see which SIM cards will work with your device, depending upon your location. I followed the cloud connection steps in the BV App, which told me that my setup was complete. However, if the cloud icon does not turn blue in the BV app next to the camera name, then your camera is not connected to the cloud. My only option was to use the BlackVue Sim card and connect to the BlackVue cloud. The front camera is larger than I expected. Installation is pretty straightforward. I opted to install the BlackVue battery pack under the drivers seat. Search YouTube for installation guides for your specific vehicle. You may need to remove the vehicle camera shroud behind the rearview mirror in order to fish the wires behind the front headliner. The cameras work very well. I had to adjust the settings in order to obtain optimal performance. BBMC stands behind their products. Troubleshoot with them first if you have a problem, then contact BlackVue Warranty returns are pretty easy. Be sure to ask for a return label if shipping to Canada. You will have to pay for the return label which includes customs forms. This may have changed recently, so be sure to check with BBMC before you return anything. They have recently added US return locations, so you don't have the hassle of requesting a label from BBMC and dealing with U.S. Customs.

Good dashcam

Everything works well, but the LTE SIM setup can be a bit challenging. The SIM slot should be relocated to eliminate the need to remove the power and rear camera cable to access it.

Perfect solution for peace of mind

I've never felt safer than with this camera installed. It helped me not just for accidents but for avoiding them too by reviewing footage and seeing patterns I could avoid. Setting up wasn’t too bad, but the phone app could be better optimized. Delighted with this way more than past cameras!

Great for the long haul

Drove across country last month and this cam captured everything beautifully. Perfectly records all those beautiful landscapes along the way too! Hooking it up to get it to work with the LTE feature took a while as the instructions were a bit unclear, but I called support and they helped out a lot.

Customer service isn’t good

I called to activate the sim card that came with my camera, the camera worked fine for like two days then it wouldn’t let me view it live. Did the chat thing on the website and the representative is saying I need to pay for a separate plan apart from the cloud plan, for the SIM card BlackVue provided with the camera… I looked everywhere on the website and no where does it say an additional plan has to be paid monthly in order to use the live view feature with the smart plan for cloud.

Worth every cent

I was initially hesitant due to the price but after a friend's recommendation, I went for it. The image quality is unlike anything I've seen - it's like watching a movie. After being rear-ended, I saw the footage clearly showed the other driver's face and license plate. The app could be better, a bit clunky but manageable. Overall, I feel a lot safer knowing I have it running.

Crystal clear video saved me $$$

After monthes of research, I finally decided to get this dashcam and boy am I glad I did! Last week some guy tried to claim I hit him in a parking lot but the 4K footage showed him backing into ME! The video quality is insane - you can literally read license plates from far away. Had a small issue connecting to wifi at first but figured it out. Definately worth every penny and saved me from a insurance nightmare!

Feels like a premium guardian

Hardware quality is top-notch and the 4K video is head and shoulders above my last cam. Hasn't let me down on long routes—even overseas. It’s been invaluable for peace of mind, both on and off the road. Wish the supporting hardware came with more detailed instructions.

Makes driving safer

Simply put, I don’t think I'd drive without it anymore. More than once, bad drivers have tried to swerve into my lane and the footage clearly shows who’s at fault. The app tends to be a bit laggy though when trying to quickly download a long video in HD. Other than that, top product.

LTE is a game changer but expensive

Been using this cam for about 3 months now and its pretty amazing tbh. The cloud features are super conveniant - my wife can check on the car whenever she wants which gives her peace of mind. Installation took longer then expected (about 2 hrs) but youtube videos helped alot. Only complaint is the monthly subsription fee for cloud storage seems abit steep. Still giving 5 stars cause the features are worth it if u can afford it. Also the parking mode has already caught someone door dinging me!

Cloud storage feature rocks

Tbh I was skeptical about needing cloud storage, but it's saved my footage so many times. I’ve got every trip uploaded so I don’t have to worry about space or losing a critical clip. It does eat data quickly though, so prepare your plan accordingly. That's a heads up I'd give to anyone considering this purchase.

Night vision is unbelievable!

I bought this dash cam a few months ago, mostly for night driving on my Uber shifts. The Sony STARVIS sensor is legit amazing. I can see everything, even in near-total darkness. Wish I had this sooner; my last cam was rubbish at night. Took some fiddling to get the settings just right, but once it's set up, you can forget about it. Literally a life-changer for nighttime driving safety.

Finally feel confident while driving

The dashcam eases the burden of proof in case of any issues. LTE feature is a bit of a mixed bag due to coverage variances but when it works, it's fantastic. You know you’ve made a good purchase when it stops becoming the thing that looms, and instead just works quietly in the background.

Video clarity that impresses

It’s incredibly reassuring knowing any potentially challenging scenario is stored in ultra-clear 4K. Impressed by low-light performance and parking mode is my new favorite feature. Set it and totally be at peace missing no critical moments! Highly recommend for serious coverage needs.

Protection while I'm away

With the motion-detecting parking mode, it caught a would-be thief snooping around my vehicle at night. The police said the quality of the recordings was exactly what they needed. It was a game-changer for my peace of mind knowing there's always something watching over my car when I can't be there.

Reliability plus

This dash cam has stood up to rigorous use, from scorching summer days to freezing winter nights. Connectivity to the cloud could be more consistent, but the hardware never fails. Love the parking mode feature that keeps capturing even when I’m away. Plus, it’s caught a couple of suspicious incidents around my car recently. Feels like having an extra set of eyes!

Tireless watchdog for my car

Recently upgraded to this model and have been nothing but impressed. LTE gives constant updates and alerts for anything unusual. The app isn't the most polished, but it is functional for basic reviewing. Have peace of mind no matter where I park.

The best defense

Had a false allegation twice before finally getting this dash cam. The dash cam cleared things up straight away. Got both the front and rear cams, super helpful to cover all bases. It is a bit complex for anyone who isn’t tech-savvy though, especially the initial setup process.

Makes dealing with insurance so much easier

Had someone run a light right in front of me, and normally that'd be a back-and-forth with insurance. The footage from my cam was so clear, it was settled in days. The 4K quality is perfect for seeing those tiny details. I did have to fiddle with the angles a bit to make sure nothing was blocking the view, but once it was in place it was a dream. If only it wasn't so pricey. Still, no regrets!

Too good to be true

I really didn't believe the hype until I set it up and saw it in action. No more he-said, she-said situations when someone cuts you off or hits your car. The app could be a little more intuitive though. I've only had a few minor connectivity issues, mostly when pairing new devices. Other than that, absolutely a must-have for anyone serious about driving safety!
