The rear records Full HD 1080p at 30FPS with Sony STARVIS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need an external LTE module?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This model has a built-in LTE modem and nano-SIM slot. You still need a compatible activated SIM and mobile data plan for cellular access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich carriers does the North American version support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlackVue lists T-Mobile in the United States and Rogers or Telus in Canada, using LTE bands B2, B4 and B12. AT\u0026amp;T and Verizon are not supported, and Bell is not on the manufacturer’s list. Confirm device activation, coverage and the plan with your carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the SIM card or data plan included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The camera hardware is included; the nano-SIM and mobile data service are separate. BlackVue Cloud subscriptions and mobile-data plans are also separate services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it record without cellular service?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It records to the microSD card and supports nearby app access over Wi-Fi without a mobile data plan. A compatible Wi-Fi hotspot can provide internet for Cloud features if you are not using LTE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is required to view my parked vehicle remotely?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera needs ongoing power, a working internet connection, a BlackVue account and the correct Cloud settings. Features and limits depend on the Cloud plan. Remote access is unavailable while the camera is off or offline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it include the hardwiring cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The kit includes a hardwiring power cable, USB-C power cable and vehicle adapter. The installation guide specifies hardwiring or a compatible battery pack for parking recording with the engine off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes parking mode save footage before an impact?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlackVue specifies a ten-second pre-event buffer for detected impacts. That buffer requires the camera to be powered and recording; it cannot recover footage from a period when the camera was off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does parking recording last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no fixed duration. Available power, battery condition, temperature, connected accessories, recording mode and cutoff settings affect runtime. Configure voltage protection and the parking timer, or use a compatible separate battery pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat changed with Series II?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlackVue’s Series II firmware updates added HDR, 1TB card support and faster startup. The earlier DR970X LTE Plus already used a Sony STARVIS 2 front sensor, and the original Plus and Series II models share that firmware line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this model support HDR?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, through the Series II firmware line. Keep the firmware, app and viewer current and check the HDR settings. Do not confuse the rear Full HD STARVIS camera with a second STARVIS 2 camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size memory card comes with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 64GB microSD card is included in this package. Current Series II firmware supports BlackVue cards up to 1TB. Follow the manufacturer’s card and formatting instructions when upgrading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose H.265 instead of H.264?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eH.265 is an efficient compression option and enables the front camera’s maximum 60Mbps setting. H.264 offers another playback-compatibility option. Your chosen quality and card capacity determine how much footage fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan protected event files still be lost?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Protection limits normal overwrite according to the selected settings, but formatting deletes all recordings, including protected events. Export important files to a separate device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the camera keep running in extreme heat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can shut down. BlackVue specifies an operating range ending at 70°C and an approximate 70°C thermal cutoff. The camera’s supercapacitor supports shutdown, not long-term parking power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty is included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis new BlackVue dash cam includes a two-year warranty.
