Quote from Howie411 :
I've had this since it first came out. Not sure if its defective or what, but randomly it will just stop recording and start beeping. Viofio Support first blamed the gps module, then they blamed the SD card, now they blame the mic. Luckily it doesn't happen often so I've just learn to deal with it, but definitely something going on.

Recording Quality is amazing though.
Time to upgrade then. It's cheap enough, better image, more features.

Quote from turb0 :
is there a good / recommended rear cam that goes with this?
I would buy a second one and use it for the rear. There are pros and cons of doing this.
+better images than most rear cams in those 2 in one setups
+less work running wiring since you don't have to run it from front cam to the rear. My car has a 12v outlet in the rear so less wiring, but YMMV
+if there is a problem with the front cam, the rear will still record

-bigger than most rear cams
-buy a 2nd memory card

Which microSD card would you recommend?
SanDisk 512GB Extreme microSDXC is on sale right now for 32. It was 31 the other day. This dashcam can handle the 512 and is recommended by viofo. I have been using a samsung prior to this and had an issue until I formatted using this software that Viofo customer service sent over to me. Then it worked perfect but I am going to swap out for the larger one shortly.

I've been using this dashcam for the last three weeks or so and it's great. I did add in the polarizing lens which does seem to help with reading license plates at night.

At first mine would say "Recording Started" like every 3 minutes. Their customer service sent me this formatting software. My SD card wasn't on their list of supported ones. But I used their software to format the card and that took care of that problem. Not sure if that ties into what you are running into at all.

A119 is the same thing, slightly larger, and 20 less expensive.
I have the model you reference.
It's a pain in the neck to pull the SD card and or camera to get videos from the A119 as you have to connect to a PC and have an SD card reader.

I should have gone with OPs.
The wifi and smartphone feature is worth the $20 premium IMHO.

If I also want rear coverage, do people install two of this front and back or wait for the one that supports a rear cam?

Quote from HilariousSummer791 :
This brand is crap. I had 3 units die during summer. Will not record due to heat.
I got a Viofo dashcam that died this summer, after 2 years of usage. To be fair, the Texas heat wave this summer was no joke so I don't know if it's fair to blame the brand completely.

I've moved away from these types of dashcams and started installing dual camera mirrors. The wide angle rear view is worth it alone with the way newer car's blind spots have become larger.

Is A229 Plus 2CH recommended for front and rear? I see it is $180 after discount in Amazon. Is it easy to install rear one?

Here is a link

if you don't mind the extra work, then front and back is better.
