Which has better night video?

The Vantrue E360. Its Sony STARVIS 2 sensor and eight infrared LEDs are built for low light. The Redtiger lists night shot but gives no sensor or IR detail.

Is the Redtiger better because it has four channels?

Only if you need four separate camera angles. Each Redtiger channel is 1080p, while the Vantrue captures one stitched 5.2K 360 view with far more detail.

Which is easier to install?

The Vantrue E360, with two lenses in one unit. The Redtiger's four channels mean more cameras and more wiring to route.

Does either have GPS?

The Vantrue E360 has a built-in GPS module for speed and location on footage. The Redtiger listing does not mention GPS.

Which records while parked?

The Vantrue E360 has a 15-second pre-recording buffer with motion detection. The Redtiger does not list a parking mode.

Is the Vantrue worth stepping up to?

For most drivers, yes. You get much higher resolution, a better sensor, GPS and buffered parking recording in a single unit.

Vantrue E360 Dash Cam vs Redtiger RTVP40TL 4-Channel Dash Cam

The Vantrue E360 is the stronger pick for most shoppers. It records 5.2K 360-degree panoramic video with a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor, eight infrared LEDs, 5GHz Wi-Fi, built-in GPS and a 15-second pre-recording buffer, and owners rate it 4.6 out of 5. The Redtiger RTVP40TL is a four-channel 360-view camera that tops out at 1080p, so it covers more camera angles but each one is far lower resolution. Choose the Vantrue for image detail and night footage; choose the Redtiger only if you want more separate camera channels and can accept 1080p.

Choose the Vantrue E360 if you want the sharpest 360-degree footage, strong night vision and GPS in one unit.
Choose the Redtiger RTVP40TL if you want four separate camera channels covering the car and 1080p is enough for you.
