It\u2019s impressively well served for cameras, with no fewer than four units, all using Sony STARVIS 2 sensors that are optimised for surveillance applications, even in low light. These are evenly split between covering the outside and inside of your vehicle, providing a comprehensive view of everything going on. In theory, that makes the Vantrue Nexus 5S ideal for professional and fare-carrying drivers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This device\u2019s cameras are split across two separate units. The main, bar-shaped device mounts to your front windscreen, filming both the road ahead and the cabin behind. A second unit mounts to the rear screen, with one lens pointing backwards down the road, and the other forward at the cabin. It\u2019s an unusual configuration that should capture the most comprehensive in-cabin footage you can get \u2013 provided the results are any good.<\/p>\n<section class=\"block video-player\"><script data-wid=\"auto\" type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/content.viralize.tv\/display\/?zid=AAGFlOaP5Zq8dxgL\"><\/script><\/section>\n<h2 id=\"h-design-and-features\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design and features<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Not the best mounting system<\/li>\n<li>No driver aids<\/li>\n<li>Basic app<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad block-mobile-ad-double\" style=\"height: 620px\">\n<div class=\"ad-label\" style=\"height: 20px\">\n        Advertisement    <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-inner\" id=\"ad_mobile-in-article_1\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I really don\u2019t love this dash cam\u2019s overall design. While it\u2019s not unattractive, it\u2019s a little on the large side, making it hard to mount it particularly close to the centre line of the typical car \u2013 it was too big to fit unobtrusively behind my rear-view mirror. That\u2019s a problem, particularly for the UK\u2019s right-hand drive cars, as the front-facing camera is on this dash cam\u2019s left, and the rear-facing camera to its right.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-rear-cabin-on-screen-820x461.jpg\" alt=\"Shot of the dash cam installed and working\" class=\"wp-image-4682411\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Positioned left of your mirror, the front view ends up quite off-centre, while you need to place the unit carefully to avoid the rear-camera being blocked by your mirror.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-passenger-view-820x461.jpg\" alt=\"Passenger's view through the windscreen with the dash cam in place\" class=\"wp-image-4682410\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another slight negative is the mount itself. Although you can remove the Vantrue Nexus 5S, it doesn\u2019t click back in as positively as the best systems. More significantly, the mount itself doesn\u2019t feel firm enough \u2013 it\u2019s too easy to knock the camera off target when pressing its buttons or removing or refitting a MicroSD card. At least you can use the large screen to view what the camera\u2019s capturing while you reposition it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typically for a dash cam, you don\u2019t get a memory card in the box, which feels a little cheap at this price. With four cameras you\u2019ll need to invest in a reasonably big one. The front-facing lens shoots up to 2592\u00d71944 resolution (1944p), the rear 1440p, and both cabin cameras 1080p \u2013 I found this accounted for around 375MB of storage space per minute. That\u2019s enough to fill 128GB of storage in less than six hours \u2013 good job this camera accepts up to a 1TB card.<\/p>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad block-mobile-ad-double\" style=\"height: 620px\">\n<div class=\"ad-label\" style=\"height: 20px\">\n        Advertisement    <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-inner\" id=\"ad_mobile-in-article_2\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The front and rear units are linked by a USB cable that\u2019s even thicker than the chunky one supplied with the Vantrue Nexus 4S \u2013 a cheaper model with lower front resolution, an external-facing rear camera, and just a single cabin camera. This bundle\u2019s cable may prove too thick to lever into the headlining on some vehicles, so it\u2019s a good thing Vantrue includes a few self-adhesive cable clips you could use to keep it tidy along the roofline.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-box-contents-820x461.jpg\" alt=\"Studio shot of the box contents\" class=\"wp-image-4682404\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s also a cigarette-lighter style power adaptor with a spare USB-A port, sadly limited to a fairly weak 10W output.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-car-adaptor-820x461.jpg\" alt=\"Studio shot of the power adaptor\" class=\"wp-image-4682405\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You need to take a little more care than usual to position this camera\u2019s rear unit correctly, particularly making sure you follow the orientation instructions to get the cabin camera pointing forwards. I found it had a green power light that couldn\u2019t be turned off, although I only noticed it when driving at night.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-rear-in-car-820x461.jpg\" alt=\"Shot of the rear camera in place\" class=\"wp-image-4682412\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad block-mobile-ad-single\" style=\"height: 420px\">\n<div class=\"ad-label\" style=\"height: 20px\">\n        Advertisement    <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-inner\" id=\"ad_mobile-in-article_3\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I often bang on about driver aids on dash cams \u2013 I\u2019m not convinced they\u2019re helpful, as in my experience they respond less reliably than the systems built in to most new cars. With no connection to active safety systems, they can\u2019t help you brake or steer out of trouble like a car can, either. If you\u2019re similarly minded, you won\u2019t mind that the Vantrue Nexus 5S has no AI assistance \u2013 although that\u2019s perhaps a bit disappointing given its price.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may also be disappointed if you\u2019re expecting a slick app. There\u2019s nothing exactly wrong with the Vantrue Android experience \u2013 the app is responsive and with 5GHz Wi-Fi downloads are quick \u2013 but it\u2019s not especially helpful. Videos are stored in one big folder, so you need to go scrolling if you\u2019re after something in particular: the best alternatives use a timeline that lets you quickly home in on specific points in a journey. At least it\u2019s easy to get at detailed settings.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-composite-01-820x461.png\" alt=\"Android screenshot collage showing the settings available, and the live-view in portrait mode\" class=\"wp-image-4682406\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s also easy to eject the MicroSD card and view its contents on a computer \u2013 I generally find this more convenient than browsing on my phone in the car, anyway.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-performance-and-video-quality\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance and video quality<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Excellent video quality \u2013 but not the best<\/li>\n<li>Disappointing number plate performance<\/li>\n<li>Tricky to avoid IR cameras dazzling each other<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was impressed by the video performance of the three-channel Vantrue Nexus 4S, so I was expecting great things from the Nexus 5S \u2013 it only partially delivered. In daylight, both of its external-facing cameras produced high-quality, sharp and well-exposed video in which pedestrians, vehicles and the environment were clear. From the front camera in particular it was easy to read number plates, even with a reasonable closing speed. It was a little less easy to read plates from the rear camera \u2013 like most dash cams, its wide-angle lens means other car number plates are small objects, often travelling quickly across the frame.<\/p>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad block-mobile-ad-single\" style=\"height: 420px\">\n<div class=\"ad-label\" style=\"height: 20px\">\n        Advertisement    <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-inner\" id=\"ad_mobile-in-article_4\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By day, the cabin cameras were great. The front-facing cabin camera caught excellent footage, exposing my car\u2019s occupants well. The rear-facing inside camera was also strong, although with the sun high in the sky the rear of the cabin tended to appear gloomy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-day-front-cabin-820x461.png\" alt=\"Cabin view, day\" class=\"wp-image-4682493\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.2223373931070225;width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On playback I found it slightly odd watching my car from a vantage point at the very rear of the cabin, inducing queasiness if the footage happened to be shot as I was driving along a winding country road \u2013 now I know how my children feel.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-night-rear-cabin-820x461.png\" alt=\"Night view from rear cabin\" class=\"wp-image-4682499\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.222375531792572;width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the help of their inbuilt infrared lighting, both interior cameras together captured everything going on inside my car on night drives. Neither unit\u2019s infrared lights had a visible component, so I didn\u2019t find them distracting as I drove. One slight issue with night interior footage was that each camera had a bright spot where the opposing camera\u2019s IR light fell in its frame. This was particularly noticeable in footage from the rear-facing camera. It\u2019s not really possible to avoid this, and it didn\u2019t cover enough of either shot to be a big problem.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-night-front-cabin-820x461.png\" alt=\"Night view of the front cabin\" class=\"wp-image-4682496\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.2223724231159174;width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad block-mobile-ad-single\" style=\"height: 420px\">\n<div class=\"ad-label\" style=\"height: 20px\">\n        Advertisement    <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-inner\" id=\"ad_mobile-in-article_5\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I\u2019d expected, this dash cam\u2019s exterior cameras did a good job into the evening and night. The front camera generally performed excellently on my trip around a city centre block, capturing shopfronts, unlit pavements and shady areas as well as everything happening on the road. There was one big disappointment, however: while the PlatePix feature on the Nexus 4S captured almost every number plate I passed, this camera doesn\u2019t have it. Very few plates were legible in my night footage, a curious result given that this dash cam sits higher up the range than the 4S.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-night-front-820x461.png\" alt=\"Night, front view\" class=\"wp-image-4682495\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.222573007103394;width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without the benefit of light from your own headlights, rear-facing cameras usually struggle more at night \u2013 often the only illumination out of town is your own brake light. Despite this my rearward footage was acceptable, with only some streaking as I turned tighter corners on city blocks. This was certainly good enough \u2013 it would have caught the gist of anything happening behind unless it took place in deep shadow.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-phoenix_single_article is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/Vantrue-Nexus-5S-night-rear-820x461.png\" alt=\"Night rear camera view\" class=\"wp-image-4682498\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credit (Trusted Reviews)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall this dash cam produces some of the most comprehensive coverage you can get \u2013 only the direct side views from your car are left uncovered. All of its four cameras performed solidly during the day and at night, ideal for documenting everything happening inside and outside a vehicle as you drive. While significantly better than the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/reviews\/botslab-g980h-multi-channel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Botslab G980H Multi Channel<\/a> \u2013 a four-camera bundle covering those left and right views \u2013 this still wasn\u2019t quite a match for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/reviews\/viofo-a329\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Viofo A329<\/a>, my current reference dash cam for outright image quality.

The Vantrue Nexus 5S is a reminder that this isn\u2019t always at the top end.

While it\u2019s a little pricey and its number plate performance isn\u2019t the best, it\u2019s a strong choice if you want to capture what\u2019s going on inside and outside your vehicle.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1786613641503\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does Vantrue require a subscription?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No \u2013 you can just insert a MicroSD card and record with no further fees. The exception is if you choose to buy an optional LTE data module (where supported), as this comes with mobile data costs.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad block-mobile-ad-single\" style=\"height: 420px\">\n<div class=\"ad-label\" style=\"height: 20px\">\n        Advertisement    <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-inner\" id=\"ad_mobile-in-article_7\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"phoenix-review-score-block-heading__container\">\n<h2 class=\"phoenix-review-score-block__title\">Trusted Score<\/h2>\n<div class=\"star-rating\">\n<div class=\"star-rating__stars__container\">\n<div class=\"empty-stars\">\n            <i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i>\n        <\/div>\n<div class=\"full-stars\">\n            <i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star-half\"><\/i>        <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/reviews\/vantrue-nexus-5s\">Vantrue Nexus 5S Review<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/\">Trusted Reviews<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Author: Simon Handby<br \/>\nThis article comes from <i>Trusted Reviews<\/i> and can be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/reviews\/vantrue-nexus-5s\" target=\"_blank\"><b>read on the original site.<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Features Review Price: \u00a3351 A dash cam with two interior cameras The Vantrue Nexus 5S has front and rear-facing cameras.
