Caméra embarquée BlackVue DR970X-1CH Plus II 4K HDR UHD avec connexion cloud

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.

Although, only having this dash camera for a few weeks. The camera has functioned as expected. I have since recorded several incidents that could be used to help multiple individuals. I could have tried and install the cameras myself however wanting to make sure that this is completed correctly. I had a professional conduct the installation taking into account the side curtain airbags and the removal of the platic doorsill to conceal the wires for a seemless install.
I also had a difficult time getting an answer from any of the forums as to what fuse amperage should be used if you have an open fuse slot that is being used as the installation camera hardwire point. The installer indicted you would use a fuse amperage to protect the camera which is usually between 3 and 5 Amp depending upon the camera. But the camera can help you with this aspect.
The only fault I found with the camera thus far is with the app and connecting to the camera unless I'm in the vehicle. The app requires significant work to make it stable and improve the connectivity. To improve the camera rating when taken as a whole the APP must be improved otherwise you are selling a half completed system. With the improvement of the App I can see my review going from 3 🌟 to 5 🌟. Without this improvement I suspect the rating review will not go beyond a 3 star rating. The night recording is quite clear given the minimal ambient lighting. I have included the rear view camera on of a nightly drive. I have also included several photos of the installation as well.
Now to the retailer who was very good with filling and shipping my order in a timely manner, which allowed me to have the new dash camera checked for functionality and installed ASAP.
Once again this rating could have been much higher if the App functioned as expected. But unfortunately there is much work to be conducted on that front to bring the overall camera rating up.

I purchased this to replace my previous 7-year-old BlackVue camera. The construction feels rugged and well built, and I was able to reuse most of my old hardwire set-up for this camera so installation was quick and easy. It actually took me far longer to loosen the adhesive enough to remove the old camera from the glass than the time it took me to install and set up the new one.

Once running, I'm impressed by the image quality and clarity of this new model. Plates and details are fairly crisp even at night. It's probably a good idea to upgrade the SD card to a larger size though as the included SD card will only store about 3 days worth of combined driving and parking mode footage at the highest quality for me.

Unlike my old camera where it was possible to adjust the length of each clip, it seems the new BlackVues will only record in 1 minute clip intervals which is slightly annoying since it results in A LOT of clips that you need to sift through and sometimes would cut an event that you're trying to review into multiple files, which means a lot of jumping back and forth. That's about the only gripe I have and personally it's not enough for me to take off a star, although I wish they would restore the ability for the user to adjust clip length in the future.

While I am pretty computer savvy the only thing that could make things better is if the cards came formatted. It’s not a huge issue but from a customer service point of view. The website and app downloads are futzy and having the camera restart as it can’t see the memory card is annoying while doing the install. I get the larger non BackVue cards wouldn’t come formatted. But the BlackVue ones should. In that note Apple/Mac users: your computer will suggest a different format rather than Fat when you go into disk utility to format it. Don’t trust the Mac, I know right?, format it to FAT. Works well happy with the purchase if you’re going to be in park mode for longer than a weekend save yourself the trouble and install a backup battery. This little bugger is hungry, power wise, and a one and done instal is better than twice. The battery protect works well and won’t damage your start by going too low but…

Good quality and worth having

Thank you Blackboxmycar.com for supplying me with this amazing camera! Shipping was very fast from Canada to the States. Great customer service. I love this camera! I will be a returning customer.

After owning a BlackVue DR600 for 5 years I figured it was time to upgrade and I'm glad I did. I ordered the Blackvue DR900X - 2CH and it came surprisingly quick considering covid and so close to Xmas. Although the two cameras look almost identical they aren't, the power and mount are different so I quick uninstall and re-install and onto testing. The transfer speed due to the addition of 5Ghz was a welcome option and I also opted for the 2 channel. I installed the DR900x in my MDX which is a SUV making the rear camera a bit more tricky to install. I wanted the cable running through the OEM grommet so after a bit of work I was able to keep the wires totally hidden as seen in the pictures. The 4K front camera is crystal clear and I was happy using a 256 gb card as my old one only took a 128 gb card.
Unfortunately the camera release button located in the mount seemed to be faulty. I talked with Katrina at BBMC who was very helpful and pleasant and had no problem providing me with a new one.
Appreciate the great service!

I knew I was ordering a backordered product, but it shipped and arrived 2 weeks sooner than I expected. Their website was a great source of information making the purchase decision and the installation very easy. Very pleased with this BlackVue DR900X 2CH. Thankyou BlackboxMyCar Canada for your help.

I don’t remember the names of the team members because I have had a serious accident and I have brain damage Hans short term memory loss, however everyone was great to answer my questions

I had a 2-CH BlackVue DR900S installed by Black Box My Car and everything was flawless. From the initial online purchase, through to complete hard wired installation. Fast and efficient, nice touch of the big screen TV with Netflix in the waiting room as there isn’t much nearby if you are waiting while your equipment is being installed. I would have liked more help with the features on my camera as I still don’t think I am using it to it’s full capacity, BUT this portion was unavailable due to the social distancing and covid 19 situation of the world right now, so this by no means a fault on this company. Highly recommended.

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

I had a BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus II dashcam installed, together with a BlackVue B-130A dashcam battery, in early November 2025 (hardwired installation). Previously, I had a BlackVue DR650S-2CH dashcam and a BlackVue DR900X-2CH dashcam, each paired with a dashcam battery and each of which operated without any problems for years.

Problems with the DR970X-2CH Plus II surfaced immediately. The GPS did not work. I spent significant time researching and troubleshooting (dashcam? wiring? installation? microSD card? vehicle itself? etc.). I also spent significant time exchanging e-mails with the retailer (BlackBoxMyCar) and the manufacturer (BlackVue) on the issues. Eventually, the GPS module was diagnosed as faulty.

The front dashcam was exchanged under warranty in mid-December 2025. The replacement dashcam was worse than the original. It exhibited the same GPS problem, but had other issues too: (i) Parking Mode rarely engaged; and (ii) if you were stopped with the car in Park and the engine running, the dashcam sometimes stopped recording. Troubleshooting was repeated, but I also took the vehicle back to the specialty dashcam shop that did the installation (they had also installed my previous BlackVue dashcams and dashcam battery). No issues were found with the vehicle, the settings, the dashcam battery, etc. Once again, the front dashcam was diagnosed as faulty. I obtained a full refund.

My experience showed the BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus II dashcam to be unreliable, with recurring fundamental faults. Subsequent research suggested that my experience was not uncommon. This dashcam is marketed as a premium product at a premium price. It is indeed sold at a premium price, but is clearly not a premium product. This dashcam model should never have been brought to market.

Throughout this experience, the retailer of the dashcam (BlackBoxMyCar) was responsive, acted reasonably and tried to be helpful. However, BlackVue’s support was mediocre. They struggled to answer basic technical questions about the interaction of the dashcam with the dashcam battery, and the logic of important dashcam battery settings. BlackVue deflected questions by saying that input was needed from other technical support staff. Customer Service staff were courteous, but never did provide answers. I can only conclude that there are basic questions about the technical functionality and software logic of their product that BlackVue cannot answer. This does not inspire confidence in BlackVue.

I have since purchased a different brand of dashcam. It is paired with the BlackVue B-130A dashcam battery using an optional hardwire kit from the dashcam manufacturer. The dashcam has operated reliably since installation and the GPS connects to the network within a few minutes of startup.

I would still consider buying another BlackVue dashcam in future, but I would have to be very, very confident that it was reliable and free of faults. I do like their dashcam form factor better than anything else on the market. I like their app, and particularly the battery management component of the app, which I use to monitor the B-130A battery.

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.

Very happy with my purchase of the BlackVue DR970X-2CH LTE Plus II from BlackboxMycar. Fast delivery and great service! Haven’t installed the dashcam yet, but it feels reliable and well-built. Highly recommend!

Camera works great and installation was a beeeze

This is the second dashcam I bought from BlackBoxMyCar. The first one lasted 7 years of pretty severe use (multiple trips to the Arctic).

You can get dashcams anywhere , but I'm always going to get them here because the customer services is great. I ordered it and it showed up almost the next day. I email them with questions, and they get back to me quickly and they know what they're talking about. Two thumbs up!
