Resolution has nothing to do with overheating. If the device is 4k capable, it means the processor has 4k encoding/decoding capability. This isn't any more taxing than a processor from eight years back doing 1080p.
If the device has poor thermal efficiency, the worst that will happen is it shuts off. This is a standard feature among processors, dating back to the late 90s. But the unit itself doesn't "die".
The only components to be worried about in a hot car would be the battery (hence why most people recommend going with a supercapacitor over a battery) and the LCD screen. I personally don't think these having an LCD screen adds any value anyway.

I would personally avoid this Viofo 4k model due to its reliability issues and look instead at a 2k model (A119 V3, A129 Plus), which does not have the same level of reported reliability issues as the A129 Pro.

Isn't this because the frame changes with the resolution?
I think that's an important aspect that people aren't mentioning
Would 1080p@120 may cause just as many issues as 4k@60.

You should get a job for canon and have them fix the R5 so it can record higher video quality forever with your awareness of this, you'd have thousands of fans.
Or maybe you're incorrect...
yes, and 2 dashcams somewhere in texas means no others in the planet will ever have problems. great imperial controlled testing. DUCY?

I got this one on Prime day, then re-ordered when it became $10 cheaper the day after. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08DNLHGWR. Can record 4K front and 1080P rear at the same time. My initial concern was that it was too big but it's actually only the size of the credit card. It's regularly ~$100 after instant coupon.
If you are looking for 4K dual dashcam, make sure you check what resolution it can record front and rear at the same time. I had come across many 4K ones but can only do 1080P doing dual recording.
It cost ~20% more than the standard A119 because it had a better sensor, real world it ended up with worse video quality. The software was buggy and routinely had updates to try and fix it. (at this point 4 years later, you can get a 3rd party firmware that actually made the cam reliable and takes advantage of the better sensor, official firmware still mediocre)
The original GPS mount had serious design flaws and caused restarts and SD corruptions. So after months and months of people complaining about serious dashcam problems, they released the V2 mount.
You had to pay for the kit to fix their defects, spend $25 and do all the work to completely pull apart the dashcam and replace half of the shell (and likewise with the GPS mount repair).
I was driving in a serious thunderstorm and was T-boned from someone sliding through an intersection, mild but jarring collision. Somehow my footage from the thunderstorm all got corrupt. This was after a years worth of updates and the new mount.
I was wondering if Viofo had matured as a company since then, but If lots of people are still claiming there are issues with their flagship camera (that is 2 years old at this point) I guess not.
My Viofo has been relegated to my work truck that I only drive occasionally.
Bought a Thinkware Q800Pro to replace it after the wreck, and the difference was night and day. Its connected to a Blackvue B124 battery pack, the Thinkware has been running 24/7 in continuous mode while driving, with timelapse parking mode for almost 3 years now. Never lost footage, never had any thermal issues, never seen it freeze or restart. Just plug and play. The battery has held up well too.
I am planning on buying a new car in the coming months, I was thinking about pulling the trigger on this deal in anticipation but I just cant do it.
Im just going to pay the premium and get a Blackvue or Thinkware, its not worth the pain in the neck or the uncertainty of something the needs to be reliable.
Thank you

Without GPS, you have to manually change clock for daylight savings.
Without GPS, the clock have a tendency to drift.
I notice about the clock is off by a minute or two each time I adjust for daylight savings.
