The DR650GW is a top camera delivering on functionality and ease of use. It's a top choice for many luxury vehicles because of it's sleek style.

While the video quality isn't amazing, that's common among dual channel cameras because of the added complexity. It makes up for it with an easier installation and great parking features.

UPDATE: Nov 24th, 2016
The Thinkware F770 is a better camera for most users over the Blackvue DR650GW. It has better functionality and video quality.

Blackvue has improved the footage since this review as new firmware was released. That update increased the bitrate which improves details in complex environments.

DR650S Model
Since this camera was reviewed Blackvue launched the "S" model but from our research and Blackvue's own statement, little has improved. The video quality is nearly the same. Read more: https://www.blackvue.com/dr650s-serie...

Our recommended retailer for the DR650GW because they have extensive experience in hardwiring luxury vehicles. For example some BMWs will spit out an error message if you tap the wrong circuit. I'm happy to admit where I'm not an expert, go ask them for hardwiring advice. Check out their Instagram to see some of the vehicles they've worked on:   / blackboxmycar
