The Thinkware U1000 is Thinkware’s newest flagship model that delivers sharp native 4K video quality and boasts a comprehensive driver assistance warning system to help keep drivers safe on the road. The U1000 is capable of being a 2 channel camera. This means you can purchase the separate rear camera to work in harmony with the front-facing Thinkware U1000 dashcam. Additionally, this rear dashcam comes with a 2K QHD rearview camera and hardwiring cable for complete, best-in-class 24/7 all-round protection.

Dynamic Recording @60fps
Thinkware dashcams have something called dynamic recording. Therefore, the video resolution can decrease from 4K @30fps down to 2K @60fps for smoother videos and making license plate reading a breeze.

Yes its a simple question, but doesn't mean we are ignoring you. We did not get any alerts or missed it. Fastest way to get a response is via a private message as it shows up as a alert for us. Right now they are on sale. Retail price is $499, on sale now for $399 while supplies last.

These MSRP at $499, Best Buy prob runs special on them for a few hundred off time to time. Anyways what’s the point of this when the car has cameras built in?

We updated our price to reflect the new sales price. 4K quality versus VGA quality is a big deal, pickup audio, 150 degree wide angle lenses vs narrow field of view, ease of use to transfer to mobile devices via a free easy to use app.

Honestly, the built in camera functionality is better than nothing, but if you want really HQ video, it is a bit lacking. And the built in TeslaCam doesn’t record audio.

This does look like a pretty nice setup, really.

Thinkware U1000 needs both an always-on power connection and another power connection that is off when the car is off to activate parking mode recording. How do you wire the Thinkware U1000 into a Tesla for the U1000 to know the car is off and to start parking mode recording? Thanks.
