V2 Pro

INTRODUCTION I recently purchased the Rexing V2 Pro AI dash cam, which has the three channel (front, cabin, rear) cameras that you can run at 1080p. This replaced my older Rexing V1-4K Ultra HD dash cam. Purchased from Amazon with a $30 coupon so total cost with tax was $250. This was a big upgrade as I gained another camera for the cabin, 1080p resolution (all cameras), GPS built in the dash cam, improved night vision and AI. (The V1 required an external GPS Logger which was one more thing to stick to the windshield.) The dash cam came well boxed and was delivered in one week by ordering thru Amazon. Installation was quite easy since I already had my Mini-USB hardwire kit for the V1 hooked up to an ignition switched fuse and constant power fuse in my engine compartment. (2017 Ford Expedition EL) MOUNTING CAMERA Removing the old mounting bracket was tricky but with a razor was able to slice it off and then remove the old sticky tape. Mounting the new bracket was pretty quick. Remember to make sure the front lens is within the wipers range and also not in front any visual obstructions on the windshield. Clean the windshield with alcohol wipe before mounting the bracket. Make a dry run with the camera connected to the bracket and cameras all pointing in the direction you would like and turn the camera on. View the camera screen to make sure the two views are OK. Note: I did have to rerun the rear cam wire and mount a new bracket to the back windshield for the new rear camera installation. As with the front/cabin dash cam, make a dry run with the back cam to make sure it is placed unobstructed and has a good view. Making wired connections were easy as mentioned above. I highly recommend to purchase the hardwiring kit as the dash cam turns on when I start the SUV. Don’t forget to purchase a micro SD card. I use a SanDisk 128 Ultra MicroSDXC UHS-I. This card allows me about 4 to 5 days of recording all three cameras a 1080p. I set the recording time to 5 minutes and file sizes range from 150MB to 421MB. Remember, for every 5 minute segment there are 3 MP4 files, one for each camera. PHONE WITH WIFI To use the WIFI connection to the V2 Pro you need to download the Rexing Connect App. The WIFI connection to my Samsung Android phone was immediate and simple. With a WIFI connection you can see live camera on your phone. You are also able to view all of your 5 minute segment recorded MP4 files. The app is very responsive and videos come across quickly without buffering or lag. I have not downloaded a file but I know that is possible. COMPUTER WITH SOFTWARE To view video files on your computer you first download the Rexing software called GPS Player. To play videos, remove the MicroSD card from the V2 Pro and insert into an SD card adapter. Using the software, open the files on the SD card. Once the file is loaded you can see the track of the 5 minute segment in a red line on a Google map. In playing the video off of the SD card the video was a little jumpy but the timing of the video with placement on the map was very accurate. The video quality was excellent. AI The AI works well however I am not sure if it is something I would use or need at this point. I plan to mess with it a little more to explore its potential. CONCLUSION SUMMARY PROS: Overall a great dash cam, easy installation, WIFI connection to Phone, Viewing video route with GPS with GPS Player great accuracy. Video resolution is excellent. CONS: Paper instructions has very small print, Still working on what AI really provides and how useful it is (after two weeks)

My current Rexing dash cam is the V1P. I’ve had no issues so far and it has done its job since 2018, by providing me crucial camera footage when needed. I recently picked up a new family car and was without a dash cam. Since the V1P worked flawlessly for the past couple years, I decided to get another Rexing. The reason for choosing another Rexing was simple. The ease of overall use and reliability. It was plug and play. Once it was setup, I just forgot about it until I needed it, and it was very easy to grab the footage off the SD card. Alright, so the V2 Pro came well boxed and was delivered by Amazon. The dash cam was actually delivered faster than expected and so it was just sitting while I was waiting to pick up my new car so no issues with placing the order and receiving the dash cam. When I went to install the V2 Pro it was fairly easy to follow the paper instructions provided. However, I am a visual person so it would have been even better if there was a video tutorial from Rexing on how to install so I could just follow along by watching instead of reading (there may be such a tutorial, but I used the paper instructions when installing mine). It was fairly easy to install. The only issue I had was with the power cord plugging in the 12V. Sometimes it does not register and therefore does not turn on. I have to press it down hard or move it around before it connects. Not sure if the cord I received is a lemon and a new power cord will fix the issue. The camera footage is decent quality with 1080p. For those looking for higher resolution, Rexing has the V1PGW-4K (I’m debating updating my V1P with this updated model) that is 4K resolution. I really like how the V2 Pro now has the ability to swivel the exterior and interior cameras. The IR night vision is new as well and works pretty well for the cabin at nights. Some other new features are the pedestrian warning, forward collision warning, and lane departure warning. I have not been in a situation where these were truly tested, but it is nice to know this camera will provide that protection and additional layer of safety when driving. In this day and age where a clear cut car accident could be muddled by people lying, having footage will save you time, money, and the headache. I am confident that this new V2 Pro will also provide years of dependability. Pro Tips: 1) Have another person standing on the outside of the vehicle and have them let you know if the dash cam is centered and not to low/high on the windshield. 2) There does not seem to be a way to flip the rear camera image on this model so make sure you double check the camera is mounted correctly or else it will be upside down.

i purchased the camera and the wire kit 2 years ago with the recommended sd card (size and speed) and I'm writing a review cuz I had a car crash this week and there were no videos saved. i have also had several incidents before where I needed videos from the camera as evidence and all the videos were corrupted on the sd card. the last time this camera saved videos were 2 months ago! and most of the videos were also corrupted and I could not open them. this is an unreliable product read on if you would like more details. The video quality is great, I did not have a problem with it depleting my battery power. however, it fails to do its job as a dash cam miserably. if you are buying it because it announces lane departure, vehicle ahead warnings, or pedestrians, this is more of a gimic than a real safety feature. it's random and inconsistent, if you are in a city it is annoying and you will either turn it off or your brain will tune it out , or your music will be too loud and you won't hear it. on the highway it is random and does not always work so it's not an effective feature to rely on. the camera worked properly in the beginning, for a few months - it turned on at all times and captured video as expected. but at some point it started turning off on its own, restarting randomly and I started finding corrupted videos when I needed to check for evidence on several occasions. pulling videos out of the camera using the phone app is a very difficult and miserable slow process. so in 2 years I had 3 minor incidents and car crash and I could not recover any evidence from the camera in all of these situations a waste of money and waste of time installing the device in my vehicle.

Very dashcam for what you are paying. Front and cabin camera have good angles and move almost 360° so you always can recorder exactly what you want. Charge wire ok, screen is small but it’s Ok because you do have an amazing app where you can watch your videos without the hassle of removing you camera from the windscreen. Yes, that’s the only thing it’s a bit annoying it’s to remove the camera from the support that attach the windscreen, but as I said you won’t be removing often because you have the app. Overall, I’m happy. Much cheaper than a nextbase.
