Just a heads up. Best Buy will install this (front + back cameras) for $99. The dash cam can be purchased anywhere, it doesn't have to be from Best Buy.
Got a new model for my car, DroneXC. Dash cam that live streams the video to my cell phone via 5G. So if the alarm goes off, it alerts me and I can pull up live video. The video is also automatically stored in the cloud. So if the entire car is stolen or they steal the dash cam, you'll still have the footage. Tracks the car via GPS too.
Ordered the A119. Lowest price ever. Thanks iconian! Just in time as a friend just bought a new car. I've been using 1080P dash cams from Aukey and Yi in the $40-$50 range purchased in 2019 and they've worked flawlessly. Police officer ruled in my favor and wrote up the report favorably for a rear-end collision. I didn't even have a rear dash cam module, but he noticed the impact in the front-facing model I had. In another car, the police officer saw footage of two cars displaying road rage. One of the cars side-swiped my car and the police immediately ruled in my favor and wrote up reckless driving tickets for the two idiots. Every once in a while, check the camera to see that it's working, and reformat the MicroSD card once a month, and you'll be good to go. The dash cam market has caught on its popularity and they have jacked up their prices. A $40-$50 model will work just as well as a $200 model. You're paying for bells and whistles for the $200+ models in my humble opinion. The only reason why I spent more for the A119 is my friend wanted the name brand at the lowest price.
VIOFO Dash Cam A119 Mini 2, STARVIS 2 Sensor, 2K 60fps/HDR 30fps Voice Control Car Dash Camera with 5GHz Wi-Fi GPS, Night Vision 2.0, 24H Parking Mode, Supercapacitor, Support 512GB Max
Before buying, I would suggest you look at the video from the YouTuber lifehackster. He had a dash cam from VIOFO and his wife was in an accident where she got hit and the camera stopped recording. It missed the point of impact and then it didn't start working again until she was already on the side of the road
I would be so furious is this happened to me. Especially if i was not at fault and the other person bullshited their way out of being at fault, happened to me before where I was I an accident orger person bullshited their way abd caused thre accident to be 50/50. Its sPretty much the main reason for buying a dash cam.
How does 2 of A119 Mini 2 for front and rear compare against single A229 plus for front and rear ignoring the price difference?
A229 controls both front and rear cameras, using one display and uses one source to power it. Two a119 uses two separate power source and how will you control the rear camera if it is mounted in the back glass? It all depends on how you want to control the rear camera. Btw, you're going to need two sd cards for two a119.
