Viofo A229 Plus Dashcam Review

Here is a more detailed look at some of the A229 Plus’s key features:

Dual Sony STARVIS 2 IMX675 Image Sensors

The A229 Plus is the first dashcam to feature dual Sony STARVIS 2 IMX675 image sensors, which offer a number of advantages over previous STARVIS sensors, including:

• 2.5 times wider dynamic range for better image quality in high contrast lighting conditions
• Higher light sensitivity for reduced noise and motion blur in low-light conditions
• Improved image processing for sharper and more detailed images

HDR Support for All 3 Channels

The A229 Plus supports HDR for all three channels, which helps to balance overexposed and underexposed areas in the video footage. This is especially important for driving in areas with high contrast lighting conditions, such as tunnels or under bridges.

Infrared Cabin Recording

The A229 Plus features an interior camera with a Sony STARVIS IMX307 sensor and 4 infrared LED lights. This allows the camera to record clear black-and-white footage even in complete darkness. This can be useful for capturing evidence of vandalism or theft, or for monitoring the safety of passengers and cargo.

Advanced Voice Control

The A229 Plus features an advanced voice control function that allows you to control the camera with spoken commands in multiple languages. This can be especially handy if you need to start or stop recording, take a photo, or turn on/off Wi-Fi while driving.

Ultra-Precise GPS Recording and Tracking

The A229 Plus features a Quad-Mode GPS module that can simultaneously access signals from multiple satellite constellations. This allows the camera to achieve faster and more accurate positioning and tracking, even in challenging environments such as urban areas or mountainous regions.

Dual-Band 5GHz&2.4GHz Wi-Fi

The A229 Plus supports dual-band 5GHz&2.4GHz Wi-Fi, which provides faster data transfer speeds than conventional 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. This allows you to quickly and easily preview, download, and share video footage using the VIOFO app on your smartphone or tablet.

Intelligent Parking Mode

The A229 Plus features three parking modes: auto event detection, time lapse recording, and low bitrate recording. These modes provide 24/7 surveillance of your car while parked, even when the ignition is turned off.

• Auto event detection: The camera will automatically start recording if it detects an impact or significant movement while parked. This can provide evidence if your car is damaged or vandalized while you are away.
• Time lapse recording: This mode condenses long periods into shorter video clips, saving storage space and power. It is ideal for capturing road trips, scenic drives, or lengthy commutes.
• Low bitrate recording: This mode records video in a smaller file size, saving even more storage space on the microSD card.

Loop Recording and Auto Emergency Lock

The A229 Plus supports seamless loop recording, which allows for continuous video capture and automatically overwrites the oldest videos with the last ones. This saves you from having to constantly check and clear the memory card.

The camera also features an auto emergency lock function that automatically locks the ongoing recording file when a sudden impact or collision occurs. This prevents the file from being overwritten and ensures that you have crucial video evidence in the event of an accident.

Overall, the Viofo A229 Plus is a high-performance dashcam that offers a wide range of features and excellent value for money. It is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and feature-rich.
