Simultaneously supporting 4K 2160P resolution for the front camera and 2K 1440P for the rear camera. It delivers smooth cinematic 4K and 2K image quality and ensures effortless license plate reading and detail capturing, day or night. Providing you all-around security monitor.
- 【HDR for Front and Rear Night Vision 2.0】 The A229 Pro boasts Sony's premier STARVIS 2 MX678 and IMX675 sensors, expertly combined with cutting-edge HDR technology. The wider dynamic expands the range of captured details, skillfully harmonizing highlights and shadows. This ensures precise license plate recognition, even during high-speed scenarios, for both front and rear recordings, and restores 4K-level details, ensuring the best night shots.
- 【3 Parking Modes for 24/7 Protection】 Supported by a buffering function, the camera will initiate automatic recording upon detecting moving objects. It will store the video footage for 15 seconds prior to and 30 seconds after the detected event. There are 3 parking modes: Auto Event Detection, Low Bitrate, and Time Lapse, offering flexibility in conserving SD card storage space. To enable these parking modes, you can acquire the VIOFO HK4 Acc Hardwire Kit (Asin: B09MRVP2PX).
- 【Hands-free Voice Control & Notification】 Experience hands-free control with 12 voice commands, including options to take photos, lock the video, turn on/off Wi-Fi, turn on/off audio, show the front/rear camera, etc. Additionally, provide clear voice notifications such as settings adjustments and memory card issues.

This integration notably boosts accuracy and stability in positioning. And also provides thorough vehicle location, speed, and timestamp data when reviewing videos on the VIOFO App or a computer.
- 【Loop Recording &Emergency Lock】 The A229 Pro features loop recording, which means that as soon as the memory card reaches its storage capacity, the car camera will automatically replace the oldest video file with the most recent one. Furthermore, the built-in G-sensor can automatically lock the video when the camera detects shaking or collision to prevent important videos from being overwritten during loop recording.
- 【Anti-Glare CPL Included】 A CPL (Circular Polarizing Lens) is included and affixed to the front lens of the dashcam to effectively diminish reflections and glare from glass and road surfaces. This results in a substantial enhancement of image quality and contrast in various scenarios.

Easy to install, your car is designed to run cables around the cab.

The 2nd one was Ok until I installed a beta version of the firmware which was incompatible with the iOS app ( which is very useful ). I tried to then reinstall the former firmware and that bricked the rear camera. Again , Viofo came through and sent a replacement.
All is now fine, the picture quality is very very good and the app works.
I like to have every little of my car in the shot and with that way I like to aim the camera I had to adjust the exposure settings little and that is so much easier with the app.
So my recommendation is be very careful positioning the camera during installation and do not install beta firmware.
Needless to say,customer service was patient and very respectful throughout the entire interaction. It is honestly some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. You have issues contact customer service before jumping to conclusions.
The reason I chose this camera was for the features. This camera is fully loaded. It has every feature I've ever wanted and a dash cam and then some. The price is a little steep but you get what you pay for essentially. You're getting three cameras at extremely high quality, and it's loaded with features. It doesn't come with an SD card or hardwire kit so make sure you pick those up if you need them. I put a 256GB micro SD card, which should be more than enough since the cameras have loop recording. If it's in your budget and you need a fully loaded camera this one is definitely one of the top ones in my opinion.

Response time: With in hours of contacting Viofo, someone (Lisa) reached out to me.
Attention to detail: Lisa listened to all the issues and provided proper guidance and information on the product.
Patience and professionalism: I have to say and cannot put enough words to the customer service of the company. Lisa listened and provided answer to every single question and provide solution to every single problem. I have encountered very less someone like Lisa and would give the highest possible rating to company and to her personally.
Resolution:
1- I wanted the screen to stay on all the time, done.
2- Firmware update was done with downloading firmware on the memory card but it was a custom firmware.
3- Wifi issue was resolved as firmware was updated.
4- Stopped recording issue was solved by changing micro sd card.
Overall thoughts: The way Viofo stood behind their product and are there to provide proper and reliable customer satisfaction then there is no better product than this.
I ended up keeping the product and would like to highly recommend this based on my own experience with Viofo.
BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION EVER.
I am changing my review to 5 stars after the experience.
————————————————————————
Original review: I purchased this dashcam after hearing a lot of hype on YouTube. Video quality is good but extremely unreliable. I installed this dashcam about a couple of weeks ago and last night had an unfortunate incident. I was so confident that I have video proof and won’t be in any trouble. To my surprise it didn’t record at all for the whole trip.
I heard a YouTuber in a review that this dashcam tells you if it is not recording and I was excited about that feature but I guess it’s just false advertising.
There was no notification at all.
Also, what is the point of having the screen if it’s not going to stay on. It’s just dead screen all the time.
Since I installed the camera, it’s been recording fine but when it actually needed to do job, forget it.
Firmware: if firmware update (1.2) is not available to install, please stop showing the message on the app.
Wifi connection: Really really bad. After downloading each video, it just goes back to live view screen and start recording.
App: I have been using iPhone app and it’s so laggy and feel like it was made for 2010 phones.
Overall: So frustrated that I just want to send it back right now.
Excellent support.
Occasionally it randomly takes a picture or saves a video, I assume it thinks it hears a voice command. Not intrusive.

Among perks of this camera are the contents in the box, physical buttons, high speed memory card support, "live view" in the mobile app, and video quality.
The camera comes with cables of sufficient length, extra adhesives, and an easy to understand instruction manual. The box also includes a handy schematic for how to wire the device properly and a plastic "pry bar" type tool to help push the cables behind the interior panels of the vehicle. There's also a 12v two-port USB adaptor but I already have ample USB ports with sufficient amperage built in the car so I opted to not use this one but the inclusion is a nice touch.
I mount my camera in front of the rearview mirror where it's out of sight of me while I'm driving. Having physical buttons, especially with the "lock" button being sized larger than the others is a huge benefit for being able to reach over without taking my eyes off the road.
Given that this camera can record in 2k in the front and 1080 in the rear, large memory cards are a must and this camera can support a microSD card up to 512gb in size.
Aside from the physical buttons, the user interface is great. The various LED indicators seem as if they would be really helpful to indicate to the user what's happening, but as mentioned earlier my use case is a bit different. The voice commands work okay as an alternative to using the buttons, provided there is no music, conversing within the cabin, or road noise. My particular car makes too much road noise unfortunately for the voice commands to work well but other people's experiences may vary, of course. The voice playback when starting, stopping, and performing various other functions on the camera is excellent.
The mobile app is available for both Android and iOS devices and has an excellent "live view" feature to help the user with angle adjustments. The inclusion of 5GHz wifi is faster than the traditional 2.4 GHZ spectrum that's included with other models of dash cams. Personally, I just pull the card and place it in an adaptor that connects to my phone when I need to pull footage, but again the option to use WIFI is there and does work, with some patience. The camera writes intuitive filenames which include the year, date, and time, as well as a way to easily differentiate whether the footage is from the front or rear camera. Files that are locked get copied to a separate folder so the user can easily find them. These features make finding a particular bit of footage a breeze.
The footage quality itself is excellent, with or without the HDR. Virtually all standard sized license plates are legible in daylight as are most smaller sized plates that are used on motor cycles. Night footage is equally impressive, although sometimes headlight glare overexposes license plates making them difficult to read.
The GPS is also an extra touch with the ability to stamp lat and long along with speed in either kmh or mph. The mobile app also allows for some custom fields so someone can add a social media handle, their own license plate, or whatever they desire.

P.S. I almost forgot, the external wiring kit also has a battery saver feature. If you use the dash cam in parking mode, it will turn off before your battery drains too low. There are a few settings for how low it will go.

Original review:
I ordered this unit as a replacement for my A129 Dual Pro that failed in under 2 years - I attributed this failure to being in the Arizona sun and heat where not too many things survive. This unit barely lasted 1.5 months before the display, only in the morning, is unreadable. I was going to return it but the 30 day window ended last week. I am dreading the removal because it took a long time to run the wire to the rear camera. Recommending that this unit does not get purchased. It did work great until it failed, but afraid to rely on it just like the old one - I did not know it had failed recording video.
