- Storage capacity: Huge! Up to 512GB, which equates to at least 30 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. The sensitivity is fully customisable.
