I bought the VIOFO VS1 last month and it’s working well so far. No screen on the back but I actually like that as it’s less of a distraction when driving… and you just pull the video off via the WiFi connection when you need it.
I’m a fan of the Viofo A129 Duo. I have one hardwired in both of my cars. Parking mode, 4k front and 2k rear resolutions, fairly easy to hardwire myself, and the app is ok.
I lived in Vegas and last couple years before leaving I had Viofo A129 Plus. Never had a problem.
Another vote for VIOFO A129 Plus Duo. We're well into our second summer with it, and haven't had any issues at all.
I have the VIOFO A129 Plus Duo and have been very happy with it. I stuck mine to the windshield and rear window with the included 3M double-sided tape and it has not come loose.
I have the VIOFO A129 in two cars. It has worked for me so far. One of those cameras is going through its second summer, and is still working.
I finally have my dashcam installed today! What I did is pretty much what Jadar did here except I didn't open the A-pillar trim. It was too intimidating to me. So I modded the USB cable instead: I replaced the middle part of the USB cable with 22 gauge 2 pin wire I bought from Amazon. This size of cable can be pushed between A pillar and windshield very easily (with the help of a trim removal tool). I also didn't buy a factory hard wire cable. And instead I used a 12v to 5v buck converter that draws power 12v battery and outputs with a USB type A female port. The dashcam of my choice is viofo t130 so I get both the front view and interior view in a very small body.
I run the Viofo A129 front and back. It's a solid cam. I got it because It has the super capacitor instead of a battery.
I installed a Viofo A129 Duo. Front camera was easy enough to install - just mind the airbag in the A-pillar. Now, the rear camera... I unwisely chose to route the cable along the passenger side, meaning a lot of trim had to go off, and two more airbags to avoid. Then I broke one of the clips in the hatch wiring boots. If I had to do it all again, I'd try to fish the cable from the mirror assembly directly to the rear of the car. Then fish it through the hatch boot without foolishly trying to remove it. That said, a dual dashcam is incredibly useful, and Viofo models are great for the price. Installed this (along with a hitch step) to protect the car from those who can't park properly.
I’ve tried 2 so far and just had bad luck. A FitCamX that caught fire during the install and a Viofo A129 but the software totally sucked.
