Viofo paid the original company who design the A118 for the rights to use the design and all and made A118C... While other just copy and manufacture the A118 without paying... Something like that... An example would be G1W dashcams, there is a lot of manufacturers releasing different versions of G1W dashcams.

Something like that and also for the firmware updates and support... I can see Viofo is listening to end users and release new firmwares to fix issues raised.
