Cámara para salpicadero Thinkware U3000 4K UHD de doble canal

I purchased another Thinkware U1000 to replace a malfunctioning U1000 I purchased back in 2019. The new (replacement U1000) works good, since it is new. I didn't need or want the radar, so I tossed that in the trash. Now that I have an older U1000 camera to disassemble, I learned that there was an internal button battery, MS920SE-FL27E, soldered onto the circuit board. The battery died, so I replaced it and got my original Thinkware U1000 working again. Now I have a spare Thinkware U1000, AWESOME!

I bought this March 2022 with a 3 year warranty for $690. It came with the rear cam, radar and obd cable for hybrids. The app is a pain. There was even a point where it recorded nothing but a black screen, had to uninstall and reinstall the app to 'fix' it. Trying to get the app to cooperate in general to get videos was a pain and near makes it not worth buying but when it did work it worked well. The quality of the videos is good but no where as good as advertised. Heat is the biggest issue for this camera. I bought an awning for my car.... for my camera so it would be out of the heat/light. I bought an exterior sunshield even though it defeats the purpose of it recording! I babied the camera to no end! But after LESS THAN TWO YEARS it just died, power is going to the cable but camera. A SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLAR CAMERA BRICKED ITSELF IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS!!!! So much had been going on in my life I forgot where I bought the camera! I went directly to thinkware but it remained a mystery. Then I just randomly came across this site and it all pieced together. I found my account and the reciept. Now I see that this camera is less than half the price!!!! Then I see I bought a 3 year warranty for it only to notice it has expired as of 4 months ago! DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA! It is a delicate snowflake, this is northern california, not Arizona! I kept it covered all the time which made it pointless to have! This was a poor investment on my part. Do not buy this camera! I'm absolutely furious i spent this much on garbage. I've been so busy with life i vanet even taken it out yet. Would have been nice to get videos of the stalkers, bad drivers and the one car on fourth of July this year that pulled in front of me from a side road and came to a dead stop on the freeway which I had to dodge. Thanks for nothing.

Love the parking mode & OBD cable. A few years back I paid a few hundred, to have my BlackvueDR900X installed. It was installed but only comes on when my Truck is started. They couldn’t figure out on my 2021 Ram the parking mode feature. Wasted money on install. The U3000 is so simple & sits on my windshield, never gets too hot. My BlackVue is hot within minutes of being on. I love the tinted film provided too. My current setup has my U3000 on windshield & BlackVue DR900x around my rear view mirror.

I bought a U3000 because I wanted the one of the best on the market with the new generation STARVIS 2 sensor.
First of all, this Dashcam is smaller than I thought when I opened the package and It fit easily behind your mirror. I am really surprised about video 4K quality for sure, but I notice this Dashcam power consumption is very, very low in parking mode! With PowerCell8 dedicated battery pack 7500mAh, this Dashcam can be powered 8 days in radar parking mode! Amazing! Also there is a lot of settings you can adjust in fonction of your car, your set-up and your needs.
App on phone is fast, no issues, you can see and download your video easily, also computer App works fine, It's just perfect!

So.... I ordered the fuse tap kit. Thinking it would be just plug and play as I saw on the install videos. Not the case. Apparently have to file the fuse tap housing and the prongs thay fit into the fuse well. I have a 2021 F-150 Powerboost. So buyer beware. I have used the Hotspot feature and it did work very well. Now I have to pay for a professional installer to take full advantage of the U1000 dashcam.

I chose the Thinkware U1000 over other cams due to the features and the form factor (style) it has. It fits beautifully on my 2021 F250 windshield just to the right of rear view mirror. Install was a breeze, wires were ran easily behind headliner and trim panels. I hooked my U1000 up with only power when ignition is on, it can be hooked with both ignition and constant power. Constant power is used for parking video protection, which I really do not need.
The video quality is amazing.
The one little thing that can be a bit annoying at times is, that when the U1000 is either hooked up to my start phone or is searching for WiFi, I can not use my mobile internet. There is no real reason that my phone needs to be connected via WiFi to the U1000 unless I'm setting the cam settings or reviewing video. Once I start my truck the U1000 will search for WiFi for exactly 10 minutes, during this 10 minutes I can not use my phones internet. Once it stops looking for WiFi my phones internet works fine.

Team was helpful in selecting right dash cam for my car. Went with Thinkware U1000. Easy to install, but if you want to do a pro job yourself then take your time. Test the unit before full install. Use the instructions from Blackboxmycar website. Once you test fit, secure the front cam and start routing cables. I have an SUV, so if you want rear cam wires hidden, take time routing cable through rubber grommet at lift gate/body hinge. I routed using a zip tie, taped to rear cam power cable,then pulled it through. Very clean and professional. You’ll have to remove plastic shrouds but it’s worth it. Get the removal toolkit...it’s definitely worth it. Then full send rear cam cable up front, tucking cables away neatly. Another tip...get some tesa tape, it’s black fabric tape used to tape cable together. Looks pro and keeps wires together when routing from front cam to either fuse box, OBD port, or battery. Black box team helped me in choosing OBD as best power option as my fuse box is in engine bay and too difficult to get to. Using iRoad and works great! Thanks again Blackboxmy car! Jos

A dash cam is definitely worth the investment, this I learnt after last year I got into a fender bender because a vehicle cut in front of me on a snowy day and if I had a dash cam I would not be held partially at fault due to a he said she said situation that it became. So this holiday I saved up and bought the U1000 after watching the reviews from blackboxmycar and Dail2Fast. The Dashcam is great, great image quality, works as expected and I bought it with the Radar accessory and BI750 battery. The build quality of the dashcam is great, I only hope they would make a 3ch model with 1 for the inside of the car.

The battery pack is where the not so great part of purchase experience comes in. I ordered it on cyber Monday expecting it to be delivered in 1-3 business days as advertised. but 5 days after the order the battery showed up as backordered even though it was not when I ordered it. I was told it was due to their inventory mix up and I had to wait 20+ days for it to arrive. Also due to the rush I guess the quality control on the battery pack wasn't that good, the back sticker was falling off when it arrived. About the internals only time will tell as it's new and currently working as expected. If I would have known all this I wouldn't have ordered the battery. Also, the additional CPL filter I ordered did not have the filter in the box. It had everything else like the pamphlet, the microfiber cloth also an empty plastic which I assume should have the filter. Blackboxmycar is investigating the matter. I know these are minor things considering the holiday season and and with the pandemic but overall it took the fun out of the whole experience for me hence I took one star.

Overall I can chalk it up to it being 2020 :(. I would come back for another purchase. I have my eye on the BE-750 :) and will mostly get it if I have a good experience with the battery in the coming months.

I got my first dashcam from Alex of Blackboxmycar, I got the Blackvue DR650GW-2CH way back in 2014. I just recently upgraded to the Thinkware U1000-2CH. 4K video quality is really great, the upgrade is really worth and Im really happy with it. My U1000 is paired with the Cellink NEO which I also got from them last year. Blackboxmycar Team is always been great on helping me everytime I needed a Dashcam upgrade for my car.! All the best to the Team!!!

The quality is amazing! The radar feature during parking mode is top notch. It records movement very accurately. It does not miss anything. Very content with this dash cam.

I just got this camera professionally installed in my 2016 Subaru Legacy. It looks great and works amazingly well. I love the clear video resolution, superior night vision, and built in radar sensor. The settings in the Thinkware Dash Cam Link app provide numerous options to choose from, to make driving as safe as possible.

The U3000 is good, but I like my U1000 system better. The U3k is a little quirky with its user interface. The image quality of the U3k is outstanding. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase from Blackbox my Car.

Excellent Dash Cam, with great image quality. I had the previous version and Thinkware have clearly improved the image quality, especially at night. It's also great that Thinkware made the U3000 Pro compatible with the U3000 cables - I was able to leave the old cables in place and simply plug in the new U3000 Pro front and rear cameras. Recommended.

While the camera is an improvement in terms of video quality, I feel Thinkware's choice for not allowing the camera to connect to wifi hotspots anymore is a serious step back. The new U3000 Pro only connects to the cloud via a separate LTE module, which currently sets you back another $149 and offers less generous cloud options than wifi does. From testing the LTE module with the U3000 Pro, I found that I often ran into connectivity issues and it would turn itself off. Viewing any video (live or recorded) also went with a lot of buffering. Another serious downside is that the U3000 Pro's radar function does not allow the LTE module to be on, meaning you'll have to choose one or the other. So while I feel the video quality is better on this new camera, I feel the choice for allowing only LTE was a very bad choice. The three stars I'm giving the camera is solely for the quality and the larger SD card capacity. But, honestly, I wouldn't recommend this camera if you want to use cloud services while parked near a wifi hotspot. If you are able to connect to your home's network, I'd go with the older U3000 instead. You'll end up with a more reliable connection and more cloud-related abilities. Sad to say, but I've decided to return the U3000 Pro.

The best quality and good design

Fantastic people to deal with and support a local business.

Great U3000

The Thinkware U1000 as worked great for me for years now. The only problem I had with it was the micro SD card was corrupted at one point after a couple of years use. The U1000 kept telling me that. I replaced the SD card and never a problem again. I give it a 10+

More details and service from any shop I've ever worked with

This is my second Thinkware product. The operation is similar to my older model. Only complaint to swaping out units was the rear camera connections weren't the same. So, a rewire was required. This unit has more adjustments for settings like sensitivities. Driving a truck tends to trip it on high sensitivity, and it can be dialed back. Next test: Overheat. It had better live up to the posted tests.
