The 750 does a much better job at maintaining a good GPS lock while driving.ĭR650S (top) with no GPS lock, DR750S (bottom) showing my speed 10.

The 650 would often lose a GPS lock while I was driving, especially if there were some trees around. It’s nothing major, but just a little difference to help you see more of what’s around you. The lenses in both the front and rear cameras are slightly wider and now offer a larger field of view, moving from 129 degrees diagonal to 139 degrees diagonal. One interesting note is that the DR750S records at 12 Mbit whether you’re recording at 30fps or 60fps. Update, Feb 2018: With firmware 1.003, the DR750S is now capable of recording at a whopping 25 Mbit on the front camera for improved video quality. The bitrate has now been increased which means you’ll have more detail and better quality videos. Speaking of bitrates, one of the issues with the 650 was that the bitrate was a little below average which resulted in pixelated video and reduced detail. Better Video Encodingīlackvue has improved their video encoding process which the faster processor can now handle and this leads to higher quality and fewer artifacts at comparable bitrates. 23 seconds is still a bit longer than average and I would like to see it quicker, but it’s still a big improvement in case anything happens right after you hop in the car. This means that if your camera isn’t already on and recording while you’re parked, the camera will be up and running sooner, recording and protecting you when you’re leaving the parking lot. Startup time has dropped by 10 seconds, from 33 sec to 23 sec. The camera now boots up faster and begins recording quicker. Let’s take a look at some of the specifics. The DR750S has a faster processor which improves almost everything including faster boot times, improved video quality, updates, etc.

BLACKVUE DASH CAM KEEPS RESTARTING UPDATE

I thought this was just my camera or something, but Blackvue has noticed this too and their developers are currently working on a firmware update to address this. The DR750’s front camera is a little bit softer and is less able of capturing plates.

Speaking of having enough detail to read license plates, oddly enough the DR650S does a better job at it right now. You’ll see this improvement most affecting any small details such as license plates that are a little farther away than directly on your tail.

The new DR750S’s rear camera is now capable of recording at 1080p just like the front camera.

One of my biggest complaints was that while the front camera of the DR650S had good detail since it recorded at 1080p, the rear camera recorded at 720p and the reduced resolution was noticeable in terms of reduced detail. The front camera of the DR750S records at twice the frame rate, from 30fps to 60fps, which means that a) your video looks smoother and b) the faster shutter speeds make for crisper and sharper videos with less blur and you can more easily make out details, especially on moving objects such as cars driving past you or other vehicles as you’re making a turn. The differences are (almost literally) like night and day! You’ll also note that this applies to not only the front camera, but also the rear as well. Check out the difference between the older DR650S and the new DR750S at night, both recording at the exact same time. The camera features an all new Sony STARVIS digital sensor and one of its biggest features is improved low-light capabilities which makes the DR750S significantly better at capturing everything around you at night. New Sony STARVIS Sensor with I mproved Low-light Capabilities “60fps” on the DR750S, the real differences between the cameras are what lies under the hood so let’s start taking a look at those. (There is one difference with the mounts which is important for people upgrading from the DR650S and I’ll cover that at the very end.) Otherwise, except for the text written on the cameras, they look the same.Īs hinted at with the text written on the cameras, ie. They’re physically the same size and design. If you look at the cameras themselves, you’ll notice they look very similar. After spending time comparing the cameras and having a chance to discuss things with Blackvue, I’ve been very impressed with the improvements Blackvue has made and I’d like to share with you the Top 20 Changes & Improvements between the DR650S-2CH and DR750S-2CH dashcams.īlackvue DR650S-2CH vs. I’ve been running the 650S for the better part of a year now and have been running the 750S for the past two weeks or so. Blackvue has just released their new DR750S-2CH dashcam which is a pretty big update over their previous top of the line, the DR650S-2CH.
