To start, I've had another dashcam hardwired in my car for 9 years (from BlackVue) and over the last few years their app has gone from being bad to outright nagging me to pay for premium cloud storage, so when it the front camera finally pooped (the video went all rainbow), so I decided I needed to replace it. A couple years ago in 2019 I was renting cars every other week on work trips, so I picked up a Rove R2 to use on rental cars and it was a good experience with it. This week I was looking at Bolo and I saw the Rove R2 Dual now had a two-camera version that was cheaper than the single camera I bought before!This camera I have to say from first impression is the front camera is better than the original R2 I have. The screen seems better, and the video is better too. I read elsewhere the sensor isn't actually 4K, so I'm using it as 2.5K front instead. For the memory card I'm using a 256GB SanDisk Max Endurance, which is built for dashcam use, that I bought and had been using for the last 3 years. I picked up the polarizer filter which is screw on option (instead of friction fitted like on many other dashcams), and it improved the daytime video removing all problems with glare from the dashboard.The rear camera quality unfortunately isn't as good as I would like but considering the value proposition of this camera compared the nearly 5X I paid for the BlackVue originally I can't complain. Yes, quality rear video is nice to have, but every instance I've needed the rear video I had to paired it with the front video to show it wasn't my fault. Usual issue is someone will accuse you or running the stop sign, failing to yield, backing up into them, etc. which you need the front video anyways. The rear video would then show they didn't stop, yield, signal, etc.; that's really the benefit of the rear camera for me.Installation, I installed this with the hardwire kit which I bought separately and will review separately, but the combo is excellent. I do like it came with a basic car trim pry too, which came in handy running the power and the rear camera wires. The included kit options of both suction cup and a permanent mount (I used the latter) is nice touch for me. In fact this lets me use the dash cam if I was driving a friend's car or a rental car (if I didn't already have the older R2 for this).Some negatives is mostly with the app and UI. I had a lot of good experiences with the app before, and it's still very good. I don't like that I'm now forced to create and sign into an account to use it. Seem unnecessary. Also I would like an option to disable the WiFi password from showing on the screen for the camera. My phone will remember the password, there's no reason it needs to show it for potentially to other folks in the vehicle.Overall I'm very happy with the value of this dash cam and I hope it will serve me well for years to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best dash cam owned yet. Great company

Let me start by saying I have owned a multitude of dash cams. I was a big dash cam fan long before they were made by my own contraptions and cameras. I use them for videos, memories of drives and more recently just pure safety.I have had a few favorites that served me well and this last favorite was an apeman dual. It quit saving times and dates and then randomly quit saving videos. So I looked in the new market and read from very expensive ones to cheap ones. I began to read about Roves super capacitor and how that works. I’m a geek that way where most would move on to the other features. In short this is why all previous dash cams would eventually give out. It used an internal battery that eventually dies. The capacitor in this replaces that so there is no battery failure and your information is always current.Before I was even able to use this I had all these and more questions and this is where the best part of this product comes in. I’ve never been able to use customer service with any of my previous dash cams and honestly DIDNT need too because they were very basic. Rove is very fast at returning emails with answere that make sense to your questions. I think I read it is based here in. The states as well? Either way, they really stand behind the product and will walk you thru anything.The dash cam…. WOW. Honestly I don’t care for apps and linking this too that etc. but with this you don’t have too necessarily but I really like this addition. The features are endless with this thing. If anything ever happens to you you are able to show everything from your speed to every detail around you in a super fantastic quality video.There is no more waiting to go home and download or any of that. Download any or all your videos instantly to your phone as needed. The Wi-Fi does not stay on if you choose. My concern was someone hacking my dash cam somewhere. Rove says the Wi-Fi is not a strong signal but for nearby connection so this cleared my mind about that. I have just began to use mine and the features will take me some time to get used to using and I will update as I learn. I am very pleased so far and wanted to voice my impressions to start because if your looking for a great dash cam and an actual company that stands by the product you cannot go wrong here and with this dual kit you miss nothing. This is strictly my opinion, not given anything for it nor asked to make it by anyone. I really like this model and company that much. The weight and durability is here. It feels solid. Awesome video quality and sound is perfect, not raspy. I love it.More updates to come and video examples. I hope this helps anyone on the fence and doesn’t know which one to buy. Best price for tons of options with great quality. That’s what you get here…

5.0 out of 5 stars Dashcam considerations

Have not had much time to use the dashcam so this review covers other thoughts. Purchased thru Bolo so quick delivery. Rove box had all components and a good user manual. (Nitpick:small font for older eyes, but usable with squinting). There are 3 aspects to using the dash cam: 1, The setup which takes you through approximately 30 various settings, some could use explanation, but you can use default on all and modify later if desired; 2. Actual installation which requires some pre-planning and scoping out your car’s features (BTW there are numerous good YouTube videos on the process); 3. Learning how to view your actual videos (opinion: use the provided Rove card in your computer). None of these processes are onerous, but they do consume some time. As far as the actual videos, I have only used the front camera in daytime, but it is clear and a great recording. Last thought, I had difficulty in initially connecting the dashcam to my Mac, but customer service was quick to respond and solved the problem….felt that the CSR was knowledgeable and professional.

Excelente Camara

Easy to set up! Instructions are clear and the tutorials are helpful as well. I am most impressed with the customer service. I had some follow up questions regarding some formatting issues and display setting issues. Rochelle responded in less than 24 hours and in some cases within a few minutes. One of the best customer service experienced ! The product, even though I’ve had it for less than a week seems very solid and reliable. Picture quality is great and the app seems to be working just fine. I would recommend this product anyone looking to purchase a dash cam for front and rear options.

Great product
