BlackVue DR590X-2CH-32-PL DR590X-2CH Plus 32GB Dual Full HD Front & Rear Dash Cam
BlackVue DR590X-2CH-32-PL DR590X-2CH Plus 32GB Dual Full HD Front & Rear Dash Cam
The BlackVue DR590X-2CH Plus delivers Full HD front and rear recording with a Sony STARVIS sensor, built-in Wi-Fi, and optional GPS, making it the ideal entry-level dual-channel dashcam for drivers who want complete coverage at an affordable price.
Product Overview
The DR590X-2CH Plus is BlackVue's entry-level dual-channel dashcam, providing simultaneous Full HD (1920x1080) recording front and rear at 30FPS. The front camera is equipped with a Sony STARVIS CMOS sensor for outstanding low-light performance, capturing clear and detailed footage in challenging lighting conditions. The rear camera features a dedicated CMOS sensor with a wide 136.8-degree diagonal viewing angle to cover the vehicle behind.
Built-in 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connects the DR590X-2CH Plus directly to the BlackVue app on iOS and Android for setup, video playback, and settings management without removing the microSD card. Impact and motion detection are built in across both channels, with parking mode recording providing protection when the vehicle is unattended. An optional GPS receiver can be added for speed and location overlay on footage.
The 32GB BlackVue microSD card included in this SKU provides a starting point for daily recording. Note that dual-channel recording fills storage faster than a single-channel setup, so larger capacity cards are available for drivers with higher recording demands. A built-in supercapacitor provides reliable power management in high-heat conditions.
Features & Benefits
The front Sony STARVIS CMOS sensor provides approximately 2.1MP capture with outstanding low-light sensitivity, delivering clear footage in night and low-light driving conditions. The rear CMOS sensor covers approximately 2MP at a 136.8-degree diagonal angle, providing wide rear coverage to capture approaching vehicles and lane changes.
Built-in 2.4GHz Wi-Fi allows direct connection to the BlackVue app for live view, clip downloads, and settings adjustments from a smartphone. A dedicated Wi-Fi on/off button on the unit provides quick control.
Recording modes include Normal Recording for continuous loop recording while driving, Event Recording triggered by the built-in 3-axis impact detection sensor, and Parking Mode Recording covering both impact and motion detection across both channels when the vehicle is stationary. Format-Free (Adaptive) file management improves recording stability and reduces the need for manual card formatting.
The built-in supercapacitor provides reliable short-term power for safe recording shutdown on sudden power loss, without the degradation risk of battery-based designs in high-heat environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the DR590X-1CH Plus and the DR590X-2CH Plus?
The DR590X-2CH Plus adds a rear camera for simultaneous front and rear Full HD recording. The trade-off is that the 2CH model records at 30FPS on both channels, whereas the 1CH model records at 60FPS. Drivers who prioritise dual coverage over the higher frame rate should choose the 2CH model.
Does the DR590X-2CH Plus record in parking mode without hardwiring?
Parking mode requires a constant power source. Using the hardwiring cable connected to the vehicle's fuse panel is the recommended method. For extended parking mode recording without drawing from the vehicle's battery, the BlackVue B-130A dedicated battery pack is recommended.
Is 32GB enough for dual-channel recording?
For moderate daily driving, 32GB provides a workable starting point. However, because the DR590X-2CH Plus records from two cameras simultaneously, the card fills faster than a single-channel setup. Drivers who use parking mode regularly or drive longer distances daily are recommended to consider 64GB or above.
Is Wi-Fi required to use the dashcam?
No. The DR590X-2CH Plus operates as a standard dashcam regardless of Wi-Fi status. Wi-Fi is used to connect to the BlackVue app for video playback, settings adjustments, and live view, and can be toggled on or off via the button on the unit.
Why is a supercapacitor better than a battery in a dashcam?
A supercapacitor provides short-term power for safe recording shutdown on sudden power loss, without the degradation risk that lithium batteries face at high temperatures. In Australian conditions where a parked vehicle's interior can reach extreme heat, a supercapacitor-based design provides more reliable long-term performance.
