Project Farm testing. Viofo did extremely well.

Recently bought both the A229 (front & rear cam) and A119 mini for a family member per request and set it up for them. I have three of the A119 (regular, not mini) myself that I have used in 3 cars for years and they're great units. Helping the fam get these set up let me get hands on with these current models.


Size between the A229 and A119 mini should not be an overlooked detail. It may seem obvious because one is "mini" but it was a big difference. The 229 was a nice size - I never felt like it was too big or anything and I really liked it. When I went to install the 119 mini right after I actually had trouble with the set up and I struggled to read the screen. Yes, my aging eyes are a problem but I had no trouble with the 229 at all. I actually had to use my phone camera and enlarge the viewfinder to view the mini and navigate the menu. That being said, the mini is still solid and the smaller size may actually be exactly what people want.


Something else no one has endorsed yet is what you mentioned about buying a 2 channel unit (front and rear cam combined) vs buying 2 cameras. I am actually going with 2 cameras for my next set up. The two channel system has the benefit of a smaller camera in the rear (no screen), one memory card, joint video feed, and a single interface to set up options & date/time, etc.


But having two cameras is just an easier set up for me. Sure, I have to get an extra memory card and set the options up/make adjustments on a second screen but I set up the front unit very easily (tucked under the edge of the headliner, run along under the A-pillar cover and under the dash to the fuse box or the power port in the center console) and for the rear I kind of do the same and plug it into the power port in the back (SUV). I also feel a little better about having two recordings in the off chance one failed to capture. I was actually in an accident where I was T-boned and my car ended up it's side and I had this 2 camera set up already (put my older dash cam in the rear when I upgraded to a better one in the front). Both cams caught the accident, thankfully. Also, the guy who hit me claimed he had a green light but my recording (along with an eye witness) cleared that up. Get a dash cam, people.


So that's just my two cents. Currently driving a three row SUV and would absolutely opt for a two camera set up rather than trying to feed a cable attached to the front unit down the headliner and over 3 pillars to the back.

Had purchased one last week with that peomo code to get $25 off plus another 5% on the Amazon deals, but this is a better deal. For the 119 it was a 17.99 difference. I wish Amazon would just refund the difference on price drops vs making a purchase/return wasteful effort to recover our losses.

Anyone having issues with the code? Code doesn't work for me.
Request the desktop version of the site if on mobile. The code then worked for me.

Anyone has any experience with WolfBox compared to Viofo?
Was looking at this as opposed to the Viofo since they make use of USB-C + 3 cameras

Viofio sucks. When you get into an accident, it doesnt save the last file.

Oh yes the lifehackster video where they didn't recall the cameras and just went oh yes early ones may have had issues. Scummy company. If that was a car defect they'd have to recall it.

Just had the A229 pro with the backup camera installed yesterday and have had a persistent 'slow card' error on the screen consistently since then. SD card was formatted and was working fine on the prior A119 that replaced it without any issues. Switched to a brand new samsung pro endurance which was exactly the same card that wouldn't work but no issues on the new one so far. Numerous similar complaints online...I guess the pro prefers new cards for some reason.

Garbage brand. Had previous gen. The wifi is very slow and back camera will often lose connection unless you restart the camera or manually replug the camera.
Sounds like user error

How are you all getting these installed? I'd love to have these but the installation just keeps me from buying these. They say easy install but it doesn't look like it's remotely easy. Appreciate any tips for making the install smoother.
It's honestly super easy. You have two options. Option 1: you plug it into your cigarette lighter. With this option the dashcam will only power on/record once the vehicle is started. When the vehicle is shut off, the dashcam shuts off.
Option 2: hardwire (you will need a hard wiring kit. Not sure if this comes with one.) for this option your power wire runs to a "hot" fuse located inside the fuse box along with a good ground near by. The nice thing about option 2 is that not only does the dashcam run while your vehicle is started, but also record with the vehicle shuts off in the event your car is hit or other events that would cause your dashcam to start recording.

How easy is it to install the rear dash cam? I haven't seen many tutorials on how to do that one.

The app/software has gotten worse over time. Also, the one time I pulled the card to get footage the card nuked itself. I wouldn't suggest using the Viofo branded SD cards. It's a decent dashcam. Wifi has been finicky on it, hence why I pulled the card to get the footage.

My iroad camera was nice, but they too updated their software and made the product worse. That's why I went back to Viofo.

Interesting. I've had my A119 mini 2 installed for over a year and haven't had any issues, but I've also never updated the software.
