Tired of dealing with complicated dash cam installations that require hardwiring into your car’s electrical system? Baseus might have just solved that headache with their new PrimeTrip VD1 Pro dash cam.
Baseus PrimeTrip VD1 Pro Specifications
What makes this dash cam special is its Solar Sync System 2.0. Basically, it has a small solar panel that works with an internal battery to keep your dash cam running for up to 14 days of parking monitoring without relying on your car’s electrical system. That’s pretty impressive when you think about it.
Here’s where it gets interesting: when you park and walk away, the dash cam automatically goes into a low-power standby mode. But if someone bumps into your car, tries to break in, or even just gets too close, it wakes up instantly and starts recording. It’ll capture 30-second clips from both the front and rear cameras, storing up to 20 different incidents before it starts overwriting the oldest footage.
The front camera records in crisp 4K using Sony’s IMX335 Starvis sensor (the same type used in security cameras), while the 120-degree wide-angle rear camera captures 1080p footage. The front lens gives you a wide 170-degree view of the road ahead, and you can adjust it slightly if needed. Even in low light, the HDR processing helps balance out those tricky lighting situations we all deal with while driving.
Baseus didn’t forget about the smart features either. The built-in GPS tracks your speed and location, while the G-sensor can detect collisions with three different sensitivity levels. You can use microSD cards from 32GB up to 512GB (they include a 32GB card to get you started).
The dash cam connects to your phone via Wi-Fi 6, so you can quickly download clips or stream footage without waiting around. Plus, you can actually talk to it; voice commands like “Take picture” or “Show rear camera” work when you’re driving and don’t want to fumble with buttons.
