About

BlackVue continue to strive for excellence with further improvements to their market leading 4K - 970 series dashcams, with the hotly anticipated 2024 release of the DR970X-1CH PLUS (front camera only) the successor to the DR970X-1CH (2023 release).

What has been improved since the 2023 upgrade to the CPU?

  • The front camera now boasts the latest Sony Starvis 2 image sensor 
  • Larger aperture from f2.8 to f1.7 to boost the cameras performance in low light conditions
  • Faster shutter speed to reduce motion blur
  • Larger video bit rate to enable more data to be saved in a clip so better quality footage
  • A change to how an event file is locked it now includes 10 seconds prior to event in the file versus 5 seconds.

In DriverCam’s opinion a premium dashcam packed with the latest technology and features you would want in your dashcam, best of the best.

Here are the key features you should consider:

  • Front camera: resolution - crystal clear TRUE 4K video quality from the latest Sony Starvis 2 sensor (8.4MP), High Dynamic Range, 146° Wide Viewing Angle, Manual Lock/Save Video Button
  • Shape: Cylindrical, low-profile and discreet design (11.8cm wide x 3.6cm high x 4.7cm deep) with no screen.
  • Storage capacity: Huge! Up to 512GB, at least 40 hours of footage before automatic loop recording begins (*on “highest” bitrate setting).
  • Tagged recordings: All recordings tagged with your GPS location, time and speed which can be visualized on Blackvues App’s map plus also Blackvue Web Viewer (PC/Mac).
  • Protected recordings: G-sensor detection automatically locks and protects event files (e.g. impact, spinning, sudden acceleration and deceleration) from overwriting.
  • Free Blackvue App: download footage (ultra fast 5GHz), adjust settings or show/transfer footage to Police at the scene of an accident. Provides instant video evidence when required.
  • 2 ways to access your camera - Blackvue Mobile App, Blackvue Web Viewer (PC/MAC free download, using SD card)
  • Built-in Wi-Fi (2.4GHz & ultra fast 5GHz) allows you to view live video, change settings, playback and download videos to your mobile device (within a 10 metre range around the car).
  • Motion Detection Parking Surveillance – the camera keeps recording when you are away from your vehicle, option to adjust sensitivity and settings to tailor to your parking environment and your needs (hardwire installation required).
  • 4G LTE CLOUD Connectivity – This revolutionary feature allows users to remotely access the dashcam anywhere via the use of a SIM card (live view, access settings etc). Blackvue LTE module sold separately, SIM card to be provided by customer.
  • Power: 3 options – via cigarette lighter, included hardwire kit, or a parking recording battery pack. 
  • Warranty: 2-year manufacturer warranty 

Optional Accessories

    • Battery Packs for extended long durations of parking recording.
    • Memory Cards, we'd recommend 128GB or larger due to 4K quality recordings, you can opt for up to 512GB.
