Higher resolution does not necessarily produce better quality images. If you have a 4k camera with a small sensor or low frame rate, you could have a harder time reading license plates than with a larger sensor, higher frame rate 1080 camera.
This is the same price at Walmart at the moment - https://www.walmart.com/ip/VIOFO-...om=/search
I have the A229 Pro (4k) and I am really dissatisfied with the image quality during the day / night.

The 2k sensor and firmware seem to have better performance than the 4k, by a large margin (at least when I was working with viofo support).

The dual camera is only $20ish more than what Viofo sells on their own website for just the front. I was hoping there would be a deal on just the A229 pro/plus just the front. I need their new waterproof external rear to put on the bumper of my pickup, or somewhere back there.

Good deal if you need the 2 cameras. However if I did the math right buying the 229 pro or the plus by itself + hardwire kit + CPL + the rear external camera still comes out to about $25 cheaper via Viofo vs buying the dual camera versions + CPL + hardwire kit off Amazon and then buying only the rear external cam (RWC200) from Viofo since I don't see it listed on amazon. If someone's bored and wants to check my maths.


Aliexpress comes out to be about $30 cheaper Pro setup than Viofo which is $56 cheaper than Amazon. But only about $10 cheaper on the plus vs Viofo's site.

I have a dash cam and I don't know why you would go with the one less than 4k. The few times I have went to pull a video I have always wished the quality was slightly better.

Is there one that also has a backup camera integrated or is that something that's generally separate?

How is the setup process on this?

Ordered the FitcamX since it has an OEM look (no wires to hide, camera fits into existing design of car), how does this compare in terms of install if I want to have it plugged in to a USB port, is there an easy way to hide the wires without covering the airbags or is it a process?
