Description
Finally, after much demand, BlackVue has released a LTE model for their flagship 4K series of dash cams, the DR970X-2CH-Plus LTE. Best of all, this dash camera even comes with a BlackVue LTE SIM card included.
With LTE activated, you’re connected to your dash cam 24/7. You can monitor your vehicle with remote live view, receive alerts when motion or impacts are detected, check current and event map locations, utilize Hotspot functionality, and more!
Aside from its impressive LTE features, this dash cam is equipped with an upgraded 4K camera and CPU, complemented by a 1080p Rear-View camera, allowing users to capture high-quality footage and clear images of important details like license plates and signs in any lighting condition. The DR970X also comes loaded with all the additional features you’d expect from a flagship dash cam, such as parking surveillance mode, seamless app pairing, built-in Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth.
Front + Rear recording with constant connectivity is the total package—a great option for parents of teen drivers, company vehicles, or anyone else that wants to know the comings and goings of their vehicle. Read on to learn more!
BlackVue SIM Card Included
North American (NA) models come with a BlackVue SIM Card, enabling BlackVue Cloud right out of the box. Simply insert the SIM Card into the tray, power on the BlackVue, and then follow the steps provided within the BlackVue App. Additionally, you’ll receive a complimentary 1GB trial for the first month of use. If you require more data, you can choose from 1GB, 3GB, and 5GB plans, and pay on a monthly basis. No obligation, cancel anytime.
Upgraded 4K Quality
The upgrades to the DR970X series start at its core with a powerful new SigmaStar CPU and ISP built from the ground up, producing crisp 4K ultra high definition footage of important details such as signs and license plate information. The 8-megapixel CMOS sensor provides outstanding low-light image quality insuring everything is caught clearly no matter the lighting condition.
Mobile Hotspot Functionality
Your DR970X-2CH-LTE can become a Wi-Fi router for your vehicle. This feature allows up to five devices to connect simultaneously. You and your passengers can now enjoy internet access on your laptop, portable game console, tablet, or mobile device using your BlackVue’s internet.
GPS, Wi-Fi and Mobile Hotspot
GPS
You can check the position of your vehicle on the map while playing back the video, and the speed can also be overlaid on the video. The speed overlay can be hidden in the settings.
Wi-Fi
With Wi-Fi connectivity, you can easily link your BlackVue dashcam to your smartphone or tablet. Additionally, Wi-Fi allows your BlackVue to connect to the BlackVue Cloud using any mobile or home Wi-Fi hotspot or router for easy access to files and settings.
Seamless Pairing
Setting up your dashcam is a breeze with Seamless Pairing. Just power on the dashcam and connect it easily from the BlackVue app. Follow the simple instructions to access the dashcam’s files and settings or connect it to the Cloud. Seamless Pairing makes everything easy and intuitive, whether you want to browse or connect.
3 Native Parking Surveillance Modes
The DR970X can be hardwired to your vehicle’s fuse panel for Parking Surveillance Mode with the included hardwiring kit or optional B-130X battery back. The DR970X will switch to Parking Mode automatically when vehicle ignition is turned off. Parking Mode comes in 3 variations.
Motion
Triggered when the sensor detects movement (marked “P” in the file list).
Impact
detected by the accelerometer/G-sensor (marked “E” in the file list)
Time Lapse Mode
Records continuously at 1FPS. 1-minute Time lapse Parking Mode video = 30 minutes real time coverage. Impacts initiate a buffered Event video.
Built-in Impact & Motion Detection
While on the road, the built-in accelerometer (G-sensor) can detect sudden changes in speed or impacts. When parked, the DR970X can also detect any visual movements around your vehicle. These events are automatically tagged and saved. If a cloud connection is present, you’ll have the ability to receive alerts and view the clips from both computer and mobile device.

- When plugged in to your standard power outlet in the vehicle, the system will still power on and off with the vehicle, automatically recording audio, video and GPS speed & location at all times as you drive.
- For motion detection (“parking mode”) recording, the DR970X-2CH-LTE can be hardwired directly to the vehicle’s electrical system via the included direct-wire cable, a new value-added feature of the BlackVue “X” series. No need for a separate Power Magic Pro (although you can still use the Power Magic Pro if you desire). Alternatively, the DR970X-2CH-LTE can also be powered by the BlackVue B-130X Battery Pack instead of your car battery while the vehicle is parked.
- All normal driving and parking mode recordings are automatically stored locally on the internal BlackVue memory card (64/128/256 GB options available). Once the memory card is completely ‘full’, only the oldest video file on the card is overwritten as each new video file is created (this is known as loop recording).
- The memory card can be removed and plugged in to your PC or Mac using the included microSD to USB adapter. This is an easy way to do a bulk download or backup of all your videos.
- The DR970X-2CH-LTE does not have a screen on it from which to play back recorded videos from the memory card. Thankfully, the recordings can be accessed via a direct WiFi connection. You can connect to the 750X with your smartphone the same way you would connect to a WiFi network at home or at Starbucks, then use the free BlackVue app to view and download your recordings directly from the camera.
- Audio recording, on by default, can be disabled temporarily, or turned off completely by default.
- GPS speed display can be disabled from being visible in your video recordings.
- Everything you need to use the system is included in the box: front camera with adhesive windshield mount, BlackVue memory card, plug-in power cable, optional direct-wire power cord, etc.
