Got my Thinkware 5 years running 24/7 with a backup battery through out 4 seasons in New England it does what it’s suppose to works great hasn’t fail me , it’s time to upgrade to this U3000 the contrast is 50% better then my old model

Thank you for posting this review. I’d considered getting a dashcam but put it off. I can’t believe all the features it has. I’m buying one.

What was N O T spoken of in this footage. You can purchase an EXTRA external battery. There are TWO different sized batteries. You can choose one that fits your needs. It is a positive as your vehicle battery is not effected. Also the '' re - set '' button is not spoken about. But, Y E S would and do recommend this vehicle camera. The price for the whole package is worth it. Going '' cheap '' is N O T an option.

Thank you for the review, i was just about to buy a different dashcam but your revelation on not using the night vision 4.0 may have changed my mind as reading plates at night was the sole reason i was skipping this purchase.

No matter U1000 or U3000, still, what's. Missing is a cabin camera.

Nice vid, I feel some of reviews dont go enough detail about the features of dashcams which is also important. Couple of things Night time they gotta give an update to improve that. Improve their alerts from the camera give times & dates not just how many someone or thing walked or hit the vehicle, better cloud features make their own 3rd party hot spot like blackvue's cm100 havibg to make sure my T-Mobile one is fully charge or with me is very annoying

Will running the OBD2 Cable in parking mode kill your battery?

1:32 that plugs into the ODBII port, not the fuse box.

Bought the Thinkware U3000. Can't register the device to the Thinkware Connected app. Tried every way possible, reset everything, contacted support in the USA and Australia, and my supplier. No joy as yet. 5 star price, 1 star experience.

Thank you for the excellent presentation. What amazes me is that there are plenty of KZfaq videos giving reviews about the Thinkware U3000, but they always leave out their tests and real-world experiences with the Rear Dash RADAR. After watching numerous KZfaq reviews of the Thinkware U3000, I'm puzzled about why the reviewers are skipping the evaluation of the Rear Dash Cam RADAR. They seem to just repeat what the manufacturer says, mentioning that the Rear Dash Cam has a built-in RADAR to detect motion or impacts, and so on. Could it be that they are just doing marketing for the manufacturer?

Does anyone make one where the rear cam is wireless so you don't have to run a cable?

Hi. Amazing review. Thank you so much. Just a question, as I was looking at the footage, I couldn’t make out the car plates of the moving vehicles. Is that due to KZfaq compression ? Or it’s the same with the actual footage? Thanks

Thank you for the information. Have you tested the Rear dash Cam Radar? Thank you.

Can you use the same power cables from the U100? I hardwired and connected mine to an extra external battery pack. I don't want to rewire everything all over again just to upgrade one new gen.

Thinkware's SOS feature is cool, but it's too bad it has to be manually activated.

hello a question disturbs me on the rear camera of the u3000! where is the rear radar sensor because on my pickup my window is completely vertical which forces me to completely tilt the objective of the lens to view the rear it seems that the radar sensor is on the side of the lens would require me to put an adjustable support to be able to adjust the inclination

Nice Review

Do you get notifications on your mobile, if the camera is in Energy Saving or Radar mode while parked?

Sweet dashcam

В данном видеорегистраторе во фронтальной камере установлена не самая лучшая матрица Sony Starvis 2 IMX678 со светочувствительностью SNR1s 029. Средние показатели. Лучше чем чем у U1000 где установлена imx334 с чувствительностью совсем ужасной SNR1s 0.59? но всё же мне не понравилось как ночью снимает.

I just got one

first
