All that comes at a hefty price though, with an almost $600 upfront cost, plus $7.99 a month for the BlackVue cloud and $23.99 a month for cellular service. Though, I will say, the BlackVue is compatible with the T-mobile network, which is only $15 a month for 3GB, so you can save yourself $9 a month by just swapping out the sim card. Still, in my opinion the BlackVue should be the clear choice for businesses with employees driving company vehicles and the BlackVue cloud even has a separate fleet plan that enables more features like geofencing and longer GPS tracking records.  <\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/38-jpg.webp\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/38-jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/38-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/38-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/38-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/38-600x338.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"is-display-inline-block is-acf-field is-link-field acf-content wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block\"><div class=\"prefix\">More information:<\/div><div class=\"value\"><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hhnsOQ3Xmnk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/hhnsOQ3Xmnk<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f47521;color:#f47521\"\/>\n\n<\/li><li class=\"wp-block-post post-10403 products type-products status-publish has-post-thumbnail hentry rec_category-lte-dash-cams\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-post-title\">Thinkware U3000<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\" class=\"is-acf-field is-text-field wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block has-medium-font-size\"><div class=\"value\">Runner-Up<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group indent-me acf-content is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4fc3f8e1 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\"><div style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\" class=\"is-display-inline-block is-acf-field is-text-field wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block\"><div class=\"prefix\">MSRP:<\/div><div class=\"value\">$429.99<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\" class=\"is-display-inline-block is-acf-field is-text-field wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block\"><div class=\"prefix\">Common Price:<\/div><div class=\"value\">$379.99<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"is-display-inline-block is-acf-field is-link-field wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block\"><div class=\"prefix\">Link: <\/div><div class=\"value\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/430hJwq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/430hJwq<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:0px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer wp-container-content-4daaf377\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"is-acf-field is-textarea-field wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block\"><div class=\"value\">The Thinkware U3000 is a pretty compelling option for someone who wants GPS reports for their vehicles and can deal with the lack of cellular connectivity. I personally used the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot on my Rivian, but you could also hotspot from your phone, or for a company vehicle you could even just have it connect to your business\u2019s Wi-Fi once the work day was over and you\u2019d still get GPS reports marked up with safety concerns like hard acceleration, braking and cornering.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/37-jpg.webp\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/37-jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/37-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/37-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/37-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/37-600x338.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"is-display-inline-block is-acf-field is-link-field acf-content wp-block-mfb-meta-field-block\"><div class=\"prefix\">More information:<\/div><div class=\"value\"><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hhnsOQ3Xmnk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/hhnsOQ3Xmnk<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f47521;color:#f47521\"\/>\n\n<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","rec_category":[59,48],"class_list":["post-10398","recommendation","type-recommendation","status-publish","hentry","rec_category-dash-cameras","rec_category-lte-dash-cams"],"mb":[],"acf":[],"mfb_acf":[],"mfb_rest_fields":["title","gutenberg_elementor_mode"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recommendation\/10398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recommendation"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/recommendation"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"rec_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thesmarthomehookup.com\/test_install\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rec_category?post=10398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
