Thinkware U1000 128GB 4K 2160P Front & 2K 1440P Rear Dash Cam
We’ve created a comparison video to help explain the key differences between the F200, F800PRO and U1000. This video will help you decide on which Dash Cam setup will be better suited to your needs. Take a look!
THINKWARE’s newest flagship dash cam model U1000 captures true 4K UHD resolution at the front and 2K QHD resolution at the rear, making it one of the highest resolution 2-channel dash cams in the market! Housed in a low profile and modern design, the U1000 brings to the table the latest Cloud Connected features including Live View, Locate Vehicle, Geo-Fencing and Impact Notifications, and other important driver safety features as ADAS and safety camera alerts.
The Thinkware U1000 features the following:
ULTRA HD 4K RESOLUTION
With 4 x more pixels than Full HD and a 150º wide viewing angle, now you can have every little detail on the road.
156º 2K QHD REARVIEW RECORDING
According to NHTSA data, a rear-end collision takes up to nearly 1/3 of all crashes. With 156 degrees wide viewing angle, you can be protected against accident denials.
THE REVOLUTIONARY NEXT GENERATION PARKING MODE ENERGY SAVING 2.0
Energy Saving 2.0 is a revolutionary development of parking mode. With a greatly reduced amount of electricity consumption, the dashcam will be on standby for up to 24 days / 576 hours. Once an impact is detected, the dashcam will wake up within a second and record for the next 20 seconds of a period.
SUPER NIGHT VISION 2.0
DASH CAM videos recorded in a low-light environment, such as dark alleys or parking lots, may not be identifiable. SUPER NIGHT VISION 2.0 in the U1000 uses Image Signal Processing (ISP) technology to record a clear, visible video in any situation- while driving or parked.
SAFETY CAMERA ALERT
The THINKWARE DASH CAM U1000’s internal GPS provides accurate location information, while the Safety Camera Alert function is on continuous alert to warn the driver of red lights and traffic enforcement cameras. Cultivate safe driving habits with THINKWARE DASH CAM.
ROAD SAFETY WARNING SYSTEM
The THINKWARE DASH CAM U1000 is equipped with the Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS), Front Collision Warning System (FCWS), Urban Front Collision Warning System (uFCWS) and Front Vehicle Departure Warning (FVDW) to ensure driver safety with a voice warning.

* Live View: Up to 300 minutes per month. (Reset on every 1st day of the month) (Requires a WIFI hotspot).
Geo-Fencing
Aside from alerting you about the vehicle’s whereabouts, Geo-Fencing lets you know whenever your vehicle goes inside or outside a particular area. This will send you a push notification via the THINKWARE CLOUD mobile app. Even better, the Geo-Fence’s radius can be set by typing in the address or simply using a pinpoint on the mobile app (Requires a WIFI hotspot).
Locate Vehicle
Using its Locate Vehicle function, helps you find the vehicle’s real-time position. As it updates every 10 seconds, it displays the current location, driving speed information and the direction it’s headed with the help of the Google Maps (Requires a WIFI hotspot).
Driving Impact Notification

*The Thinkware Cloud App must be downloaded to the Smartphone, and an account must be registered. The dash cam must be connected via hotspot to a smartphone or wifi dongle that is located within the vehicle at all times to use the Cloud Features. This requires an internet connection with data available. Carrier fees will apply.
BUILT-IN WIFI SMARTPHONE
APP CONNECTIVITYWiFi-enabled dash cameras can be connected to an iOS or Android-powered smartphone through the THINKWARE CLOUD APP. Not only does this let you view, download or get rid of recorded videos or captured images within its storage, but it also allows you to easily update the dash cam’s firmware or the stored safe driving information. Even better, this app spells convenience for it gives you easy access to your THINKWARE dash cam, enabling you to adjust dash cam sensitivity, LED and partition settings; watch real-time video using the live viewer; stream live footage; move downloaded videos to mobile phone’s library, among others.
ADVANCED DRIVER ALERT SYSTEM (ADAS)
LDWS
Lane Departure Warning System
Designed for distracted or drowsey drivers, the dash cam will alert you as soon as it senses you’re vehicle leaving the lane while driving at a speed of over 50 kilometres per hour. LDWS alerts you when leaving your lane to help keep any road misfortunes from ruining your trip or compromising you and your passengers’ safety.
FCWS / uFCWS
High Speed / Urban Forward Collision Warning System
Keep a safe distance from the vehicle you’re following with the help of FCWS / uFCWS. Equipped with a state-of-the-art road safety warning system, it calculates the real-time distance between your vehicle and the automobile in front of you at a speed of over 30 kilometres per hour (km/h) (in expressways) and under 30 km/h in a busy, congested city. This dash cam issues a three-level early warning to the driver, depending on the danger of the possible collision.
FVDW
Front Vehicle Departure Warning
When stopped at an intersection or a traffic jam, this dash cam’s Front Vehicle Departure Warning (FVDW) intelligent guidance system lets you know when the vehicle in front of you has already started moving, helping you stay attentive each time.
COMPREHENSIVE DRIVING
INFORMATION WITH GPS
This dash cam has built-in GPS, which can help you keep track of your vehicle’s driving speed, and precise location while identifying ideal routes on the map. GPS also allows for an accurate assessment of a specific area’s details, letting you pin holiday routes for faster travel. In case of a road mishap, it supplies accurate reading of vehicle speed, time of the collision and impact severity.
Like all THINKWARE dash cams, this one comes with a built-in thermal sensor that protects it from getting hounded by the intense heat. Clad in a specially-designed heat discharge construction, the sensor automatically shuts the U1000 down to prevent it from overheating, allowing the dash cam to thrive even in the harshest Australian weather conditions.
FAIL-SAFE RECORDING
In case the power gets disconnected after an accident, the dash cam’s supercapacitor-powered Fail-Safe Recording mode kicks in to ensure the safe and uninterrupted storage of any recording in progress during the collision. Rest assured, these valuable files will be securely stored and accessible under any circumstances.
FORMAT-FREE 2.0
TECHNOLOGY
Format-free 2.0 Technology helps extend your memory card’s shelf life. Since this dash cam utilises the File Allocation Table (FAT) system, you don’t need to keep formatting the card manually. Why? Because this mechanism automatically deletes older and less important files in the memory.
