Best Dash Camera 2024

I just ordered 5 of the 119 mini @ $85.99 each. Every usable car in my driveway will get 1.

I like that idea! All the reviews I have read are great on the mini!

I was thinking of getting the Viofo A229 Pro until I seen:

Just an FYI, this guy had a Viofo A229 Pro fail in a real accident. Not known if it's widespread with that model or not...

Thanks, gives me pause....

Gives me pause too!

He had a early production model for reviews i assume.

Seems like that assumption is correct, LifeHackster provided this update to his video:

Update: Viofo has reached to me and stated that they did extensive testing on their units. "We have taken this matter very seriously and conducted extensive testing with several units. And I’m pleased to report that we encountered no issues. Upon reviewing the shipping timeline, we discovered that your wife's A229 Pro was among the earliest produced. We implemented improvements last year that addressed the concerns you've raised, and we'll continue to do more violent tests to verify stability later."

ps. VIOFO as a brand has developed a reputation for caring about support / user comments / issuing frequent firmware updates that bring new features.

I guess I will try one after all.
