Not yet release. Viofo is doing final test on actual sample and in actual user environment. Some reviewer already received the actual sample for testing. My guess probable end of OCT.

The 3 wires hardwire is like those used in Korean dashcam. It provides power when the engine is off and power on when the engine starts. More for parking mode.

2 wires only provide power when the engine starts. Or tap wrongly, will provide power 24/7 laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

A119/s/pro have parking mode also but don't compare with the parking mode on Korean dashcams.

just want to ask.
for A129, is it CPL lens it important?
my camera especially at night, when recording cars with LED/very bright type headlight, the video looks very silau & I can't read the registration number.
TQ

CPL is to reduce the reflections from the windscreen. Something like polarized sunglasses.

At night, the CPL will make the video slight dark than normal.

You can delete it using a PC. I haven't tried deleting with the Viofo app via Wifi.

How about via the A129?

I usually take out the SD card and use a card reader on PC or my phone to read the card.

Easier way is format the card. It will deleted all file including RO folder.

The button can be select to unlock the locked file. Use the play mode on the camera A129.

Stop recording
Press sos button 1x
Navigation using arrow left/right to select the locked file
Press sos button 1x to select the locked file.
Press right arrow key to select lock and unlock the file.

My sweet spot now is 64GB for dual channel dashcams... At least can keep about 4-5 hours+- of videos with 64GB...
