Noted. Thanks bro. I don't have the dashcam yet. Currently browsing around for reviews and feedback before pulling the trigger.

In my personal opinion, thinkware branding and feature is top notch. The only trigger is the pricing. Haha

Last month a real estate agent friend of mine was complaining about very slow business. Very hard to close sales.

I suggested to her to use a dashcam with GPS to make a video of the drive between a property and nearby malls, schools, hospitals etc along with a running narrative of the benefits of living in that area, and then email it to ppl who had viewed the property along with the download link to a suitable GPS log viewer software. As the vid files would be large, have to send via some service like TransferXL, Sendbigfiles etc.

Well she did so, and evidently had impressed prospective clients enough to be closing 3 deals last month (2 still awaiting bank loan approval). Dashcam can help make money lah! biggrin.gif

Any vw owner can share what dash cam is good for front and rear? Without violating the warranty claim?

I'm currently using Viofo A129 Duo with fuse tap. Plug and play without voiding warranty.

If you're on a higher budget, just go for any dual Thinkware dash cams.

Ok, this is impressive. Like really one step ahead from the rest liao.

4 CH,200GB SD card and above would be ideal for the recordings!

Since last year started with true 4K dashcams. Now counting got 5 4K dashcams in the market. Or maybe more.

Thinkware U1000 - overall best features and functions
Viofo A129 Pro Duo - best video
Blackvue DR900S - so so
Vantrue X4 - haven't test
iRoad X10 - not sure yet

But do note got fake 4K dashcams. So you need to be careful of the specs.

Quietly praying that A129 Pro Duo got massive discount.

Viofo a129 duo also have?

Yes. This is the app. Once you've downloaded the video file, it will show this GPS location.

Applicable to any Viofo dash cam with GPS module.

Most basic now is 1080p. Newest is 2K and 4K recordings.

Viofo is releasing a new A129 Plus Duo which is 2K front and 1080p rear.
*
So it's the variant below A129 Duo Pro 4k front 1080p rear.

My A129 Duo tends to hangs / freeze at times especially after using parking mode. Once in a while I will reboot the camera before starting journey if I notice the cam freeze

70mai A800 is live on Indiegogo but shipping in Sept 2020

Do take note that it's only 4K when using the front cam only. In dual cam, it's 1600p front and 1080p rear.

Still using battery instead of capacitor for cut off recording. It'll be a turn down product in 6 months time under Malaysian weather.

Hmm, I remember reading about the A129 Duo lens changes for 2018 Vs 2019 model. Can't quite recall where was it.

Just took out both to update 2.1 firmware and notice the lens size.

Here's the new Viofo A129 Plus lens
[attachmentid=10553298]

A129 Plus got separate firmware for front cam & rear cam
[attachmentid=10553300]

The rear cam actually encodes its own video to lessen the burden of the front cam

Ah yes. The A129 Plus has better optimization for video.

Ah I see. Viofo A129 duo has no LED indicator . Therefore the fake LED on sale could be nice to have.

Any Viofo A129 Duo users here bought fake LED to be used for behind recording?

Sorta like informing the driver behind about the "SMILE, YOU'RE ONE DASHCAM!"

Got but very subtle only.

I disabled the rear cam LED.

China dashcam and iRoad has the brightest.

Another plus point for Viofo albeit China dashcam to be pretty similar to Korean dashcam for this matter.

No LED at all. whistling.gif

Perhaps next upgrade would be Thinkware straight. See see 11.11....
