Is the 4K VIOFO A129 Pro Duo worth the $60 upgrade over this?

Wifi dashcam mobile apps are always sketchy as hell, the last one I tried wanted Device Administration access just to turn on auto-rotate and I couldn't use the app without it and the camera itself had no screen. Luckily it seems like you don't have to use the app with this one. I like my older Viofo dashcam in this style.

I read on dashcamtalk that the A129 Pro Duo is not as good with cloudy and low light.

I have the pro duo and in my opinion, YES many times. Why? I do not know, Do I need 4k? probably not. Peace of mind? Absolutely

The only con is that a single 1 minute video is like 500MB or so. So you would have to get a bigger endurance microsd

DashCamTalk gives it a 7.8 and lists it under two lists:

I just got a 128GB MicroSD card. Do you think this will be good enough for A129 Pro Duo 4K?

128GB should be sufficient, make sure you get the endurance version, that is suited for surveillance

Read somewhere that Buffered Parking Mode is no longer available on the A129 Plus Duo. A deal-breaker for me.

It has parking mode. What is "buffered" parking mode?

Not only capture the aftermath, but also record events leading up to an impact. When an event is detected, it saves 15 seconds video before the event and 30 seconds after the event.
Apparently the Plus Duo had it but was removed in a firmware

Removing a feature,...that's awful!

My 2 cent. Don't go for pro if in hot weather. Device has a heat sink but it still goes to thermal shutdown in CA, CO summers.
