The VANTRUE Element 3 dashcam has a 2.45″ IPS screen that is easy to see. The image looks sharp and crisp. The control buttons are easy to push with just the right feel. The main lens pivots up and down and left to right to perfectly frame the video. Even with a steep windshield on the Jeep, the mount angles are enough for a perfect fit, which has been an issue with some of the glass-mounted dashcams. The mount angled all of the ways down.
The VANTRUE Element 3 dashcam also utilizes Type-C charging, so if the included 11.4 ft power cable isn’t long enough, you could replace it with a longer one. A data cable is provided for operating the camera outside of your vehicle. The magnetic mount makes it easy to remove the camera if you want to hide it or remove it for some reason.
The VANTRUE Element 3 has 4 buttons on the bottom. Their functions vary depending on what you’re doing, but the screen shows what each one is for.
The E3 simultaneously records the front cabin and rear at 1944P+1080P+1080P/30FPS. Each camera’s video is saved to a separate file, conveniently named with the date, time, and camera (A, B, or C). The front and rear cameras have a 160° field of view, and the inside camera has a 165° field of view. The main camera has a Sony Starvis IMX335 500M sensor w/ Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology which automatically balances exposure.
The cabin camera utilizes four infrared LED lights for low-light conditions. When these are needed, the camera will record in black and white. The cabin camera’s field of view is wide enough to capture both occupants even when mounted on the passenger side of the windshield.
The rear camera utilizes HDR (High Dynamic Range) multi-exposure technology, which works very well. The rear camera also has an LED indicator that shows it’s on.
The rear camera is compact, and features a Type-C connector as well.
