QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 5 2017, 03:04 PM) Not that bulky... It's designed to be discreet. Does the A119 screen turns off after sometime? Or it will always turn on while you are driving around? A119S with the P550. I can't see the A119S when I'm driving so I don't get distracted. [attachmentid=8944418] On the side note, two dash cameras? o_O |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 10 2017, 07:54 AM) I expected the WR1 can't compete with the A119 or A119S. Video bit rate at 14.2 Mb/s. But still, consider quite clear video quality. The only drawback is the US99.99 price tag. Bro, I see you always reviewing different dash camera. Do you stick on or use the suction cup? If stick on, easy to remove? Maybe new firmware will have improved image quality like firmware V1.7 for the A119S. But I like the new form factor of the WR1. Considering it to use it as a rear dashcam. Voncrane Get the A119 from banggood with 20% off coupon and free gifts. I'm still thinking between A119 and A119S, the A119S advantage is low light capability right? |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 10 2017, 11:22 AM) Suction is easy to stick on and remove. I like for reviewing purpose. Tape mount is more permanent but I use my own way to stick on with own supply of acrylic mounting tape which is easy to remove than other mounting tapes. Acrylic mounting tape is like those transparent 3M tape? I have concern of "damaging" my tinting but I would prefer the stick on than the suction cup I guess, since got bad experience with suction which kinda left mark on the tint.Right now, I would say A119 is a bit better than A119S. Huawei chipset is getting good. Can see from the few generations in dashcams. Waiting for the Yi 2.7K dashcam to arrive so can test it also as it is using Huawei chipset also. |

Based on the discussion here, I should be going for Sandisk HE series?
Not so aware they have this HE series now, been using Extreme and Extreme Pro series for my photography tools Guess I'll probably go for the A119 then EDIT: http://www.lazada.com.my/sandisk-high-endu...54429.html?ff=1 This should be sufficient for A119 1440p 30fps right?

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 13 2017, 10:36 AM) Car arriving sooner than expected, now need to make the decision Was wondering about those dual dash camera, what brand would you recommend? Based on what I've read here so far, front camera = A119 seems to be the best pick, but if a dual front and back... any? |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 17 2017, 10:33 PM) Another way is to stick those clear car roadtax sticker on the windscreen then the dashcam on it. So you only "damage" this sticker and not your tint. |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 19 2017, 10:54 AM) GPS is a double edge sword. If you were speeding, then it will be against you. But lucky can be turn off not to show in the video for A119. Which means you can decide if you want to show or not the gps data when exporting? But it's good to know where you have been and which route was taken, etc. Agree its a double edge sword LOL, if you claim not speeding at least got data to prove it haha. But if speeding then |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 17 2017, 09:30 PM) Dual cams is best go with Korean dashcam like Thinkware, iRoad, Lokas, etc... Not cheap! Dual A119... the cable long enough to reach the back? Or need to use extensions?Or go dual A119 front and back... I got a friend who is using dual A119 in his XV... Also for the brands you mentioned... any recommended site to source for them? Tried banggood but it doesn't have them. This post has been edited by celciuz: Jul 20 2017, 01:13 PM |

Earlier discussion regarding the micro SD card, Sandisk HE series is recommended right? Able to sustain A119's 1440p 30fps?

QUOTE(coolstore @ Jul 24 2017, 10:45 AM) if a gps antenna is external mounted along the usb cable, u can actually wrap it with aluminium foil paper first as it would block signal tranmission, secondly wrap a piece of dark film to make it hidden. Not an issue since you can either choose to use or not to use the GPS function by that if firmware got no option to turn off gps, gps still not working. |

QUOTE(coolstore @ Jul 24 2017, 11:17 AM) for gps feature cam: This A119 been reading about it so far, the GPS is external module... so you can choose not to use that module. Remember seeing the reviews can use either the GPS module or the standard stand. Waiting for mine to arrive then I'll know some firmware does not have option to turn off GPS then only resort to hardware part - block the antenna signal transmission or using third party aftermarket cable but majority not good quality cable compare to ori bundling cable |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 24 2017, 11:34 AM) The GPS is external but it's also the mount for the A119 The 2.7K camera you reviewed looks good! But I placed order for the A119 already... two units somemore You can use the non-GPS mount if you like... |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Jul 24 2017, 11:48 AM) Yes. Best to hardwire to your car fuse box or via OBD port. Powerbank not safe if parked in hot weather. True enough... btw side note can you take a photo from outside? Would like to see how would the A119s looks like from outside... it isn't obvious right? I mean nowadays those pesky thief would break the window just for the dash camera ._. |
