The new VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel boasts dual Sony STARVIS 2.0 image sensors for its 4K front and 2K rear camera. For maximum protection, an IR camera that records Full HD is also included, along with upgraded convenience features such as Parking Mode, Quad-Module GPS, Voice Controls, and more.
Looking for an option with a Telephoto Lens?
Consider the VIOFO A229 Pro Tele 2CH or the A229 Pro Tele 3CH.
The VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel is powered by dual Sony STARVIS 2.0 image sensors. Through the 8MP IMX678 for its front, and 5MP IMX675 for the rear camera, the A229 Pro provides you with footage superior in clarity and colour. Beyond that, it also comes with an IR camera that records Full HD, clearly capturing the entire cabin scene without overexposure, highly recommended for Uber, Lyft, taxis, and fleets.
Equipped with multi-exposure HDR for all front, rear and interior, the VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel records 4K UHD @ 30 fps at 140º field of view ahead, 2K QHD @ 30 fps for its rear at 160º, and Full HD 1080P @ 30 fps for its interior at 150º for wide coverage. Compatible with a VIOFO CPL Filter and BlackboxMyCar Aqua Shield for sharper and clearer visibility.
Apart from Sony STARVIS 2, the VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel is also equipped with Super Night Vision 2.0, promoting the highest sensitivity and lowest noise technology, especially in dark environments. Combined with HDR on all 3 cameras, it allows for a wide dynamic range, ensuring you are fully covered in various lighting conditions.
A true companion for night drives and low-light conditions.
For hands-free dash cam controls, the VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel with Voice Controls is now easier to use than ever. This allows you to start/stop recording, take images, and turn on/off WiFi by using simple voice commands, keeping you focused on the road. On top of that, it can also notify you with updates on storage, features, recording modes, and video protection status through Voice Notifications.
Available languages: English, Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Thai
Now equipped with dual-band Wi-Fi, the VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel provides 4 times quicker data transfer than 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, with a 2.4GHz and 5GHz Dual-Band connection. Ensuring smooth video previews, faster downloading and sharing of files through the dedicated VIOFO smartphone app. The VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel also gives more detailed location, and speed data with its newly-integrated Quad-Mode GPS module.
Parking Modes guard your car even when you’re not there, giving you peace of mind every day, everywhere. Beyond motion detection, the VIOFO A229 Pro 3-Channel also highlights Buffered Parking Mode. This means that when impact is detected, the dash cam will switch to standard event recording, including the 15 seconds before and 30 seconds after the collision. Moreover, VIOFO’s parking mode options also include:
Auto Event Detection automatically starts recording when movement or impacts are detected.
Time Lapse records video continuously at low frames rates to reduce recording size.
Low Bitrate Mode continues recording audio and video normally in parking mode, except for using a high compression ratio which allows extended recording times, for example, overnight recording without overwriting the recordings from the previous day.
Note: A VIOFO HK4-C Hardwiring Kit is required to enable parking mode.

The camera system was easy to install in my Ford Truck. I Love it considering purchasing another one for my wife’s Honda
Thanks for the review, Jerome! We’re glad to hear the A229 Pro was easy to install in your F-150 and that you’re loving it. We think it's a great choice for your wife’s Honda as well.
The video quality is good, app easy to use to change settings or access videos without removing the SD card. I used the hard wire kit to make the most of the parking mode feature (had to get help to install the rear cam due to interior back panels being stubborn). Device fits right behind my mirror and doesn't obscure any visibility (2017 Acura rdx). The interior cam fit slightly above the mirror and can be seen, but there is nothing that can prevent that. Im not sure the interior cam is worth it for my use case, but overall I can recommend this camera unit.
Thanks for the detailed review! We’re glad to hear the A229 Pro has been easy to use and that the app and parking mode features are working well for you. It’s great to know the fit behind the mirror worked nicely in your Acura RDX, and we appreciate you sharing your honest thoughts on the interior camera as well.
I set this up on Oct 4, 2024, and bought everything from this site!
My review can be found on my YT channel: https://youtu.be/jSGYJycXVMs?si=aXH4jMXByMQqo5jc
Had a 129 Pro duo that I left in a vehicle I just sold and put this A229 in my new truck. So, there was no learning curve and I got the install done pretty easily. However... I used a 3rd party adapter/power supply that plugs into an existing socket in the overhead for a factory dashcam and that did not work out great for the Viofo. Turns out that when the vehicle does an auto stop and then restart at traffic lights the dashcam would reboot. Apparently, power is cut to that circuit when the starter engages and that is enough to drop the cam offline and cause a reboot. Another however... if you turn the cam's GPS off this problem does not occur. But then you lose speed overlay and route history.
The bottom line is that you really need to use the Viofo hardwire kit if you want this to work reliably... unless and until someone makes an adapter than can buffer these power transients. And the hardwire kit really is easy to install.

Amazing Camera
4K resolution looks so good!
Thanks for the review, Rebecca! We really appreciate your continued support and are glad to hear you’re enjoying the A229 Pro’s 4K video quality.
I have had this for a few weeks, still having trouble le getting videos thru the app, needs wifi but vehicle wifi takes over and wont let connect. Wifi doesn't stay on would be nice if it did or it connected thru Bluetooth. Install was a little confusing but I ended up finally getting it and figuring out what camera went where. I cannot use the rear camera as the connection wire is not long enough for my truck no matter what way I run the chord so thats a little frustrating having a camera I cannot use
Thanks for the detailed feedback, David. We’re glad to hear you were able to get the installation figured out, but we’re sorry the app connection and rear camera cable have been frustrating. For the WiFi connection, if your vehicle WiFi is taking over, this is usually because wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto is active. Those systems capture your phone’s WiFi connection, so turning them off before connecting to the VIOFO app should allow the dash cam to connect properly. You can turn them back on once you are done using the app. For the rear camera cable length, please reach out to our team and we’d be happy to look over your vehicle setup and see what options are available.
Great dash camera. Super easy to install and set up.
Thanks for the review, Kevin! We’re glad to hear the A229 Pro was easy to install and set up, and that you’re happy with the camera.
A small learning curve because some features weren't apparent doing the buying process. Overall love it. It doesn't want to connect to Galaxy Tab 8, so my cell phone it is.
Thanks for your review, Deryck! We’re glad to hear you’re loving the A229 Ultra overall. There can definitely be a small learning curve with the features at first, and if you’d like help with the Galaxy Tab 8 connection, please reach out to our team and we’d be happy to troubleshoot. If there’s anything else we could have done to make your experience a full five stars, feel free to let us know.
this is my second camera and I really like them. They are great quality and easy to use.
Thanks for the review, Alan! We’re glad to hear you came back for a second unit and that you’re enjoying the quality and ease of use.
Easy to install, video quality is great!
Thanks for your feedback! Glad to hear the install was smooth and you’re happy with the video quality. Enjoy the added peace of mind on the road!
Works as advertised. I've had it for a couple weeks now. Resolution is great and licence plates are usually easy to read. FWIW I got the CPL filters for both front and rear.
Convenient features like wireless video transfer, scheduled HDR on/off, and one-touch mic on/off. Sleek design too. I haven't tested night videos or voice commands yet.
It's a big investment compared to my previous $60 camera, but the quality so far is well worth the price. I wish I bought this thing years ago.
Shoutout to BBMC for having the best price online + super fast shipping! I ordered on a Saturday and it arrived the following Tuesday.
Thanks for the amazing review! We’re glad to hear the A229 Plus has been a big upgrade for you and that you’re enjoying the video quality and features. Great call adding the CPL filters as well. We really appreciate the shoutout and are happy we could get it to you quickly.
So far the quality seems pretty good! Only downside is the app/apps for the Viofo Dashcams. I dont expect them to be perfect or great, but the first day i had access to the live preview and all of a sudden it stopped working on day 2 of being installed. The other thing is the VHB falling off the rear view camera (it stuck well to the window but its falling of the plastic of the camera). Other than that its working well. Quality during day and night good thanks to the STARVIS2
Thanks for your feedback, Joshua. We’re glad to hear you’ve been happy with the video quality overall. For the app side, we recommend using only the newer VIOFO Dashcam app with the red icon, as that is the current app that's actively being updated, and many connectivity issues can often be resolved with a few simple setup adjustments. As for the rear camera adhesive, if the spare mounting adhesive included in the box does not resolve the issue and it keeps happening, that would be covered under warranty. Please feel free to reach out to us and we’d be happy to help.
I've only had the dashcam for a few days now but I really like it. The voice command feature is very useful. Picture quality is quite good.
Thanks for the review, Paul! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the A229 Plus so far and finding the voice command feature useful. Happy to know the picture quality is meeting your expectations as well.
My experience is mostly my fault. I didn't realize that the camera was constantly drawing power from the batteries while in park mode. I thought that the unit mainly went to sleep and was awakened by any g-force type bumping that occured, which would save batter power. Jeeps are battery hungry vehicles. If you draw down the auxiliary battery too many times the main battery will also die and vice versa. I opted to have the unit shut down completely because of this misperception. Which basically defeats having the parking mode. Although I can turn it back on if I am parking in a questionable area. Also it definitely takes hours to install the front, back and parking mode cables. And since there isn't any definitive guide available you are left with watching YouTube videos to try and figure an installation strategy. It may be worth while to have it installed by someone that does these kinds of installations on a regular basis. Other than the above the camera works as expected.
Thanks for your detailed feedback. We understand where the frustration is coming from, especially with how parking mode was expected to behave. In a proper setup, the camera should not drain the battery to that extent, even on vehicles like Jeeps. It’s often related to how the hardwire kit is configured. The yellow wire should be connected to switched ACC power and the red wire to constant power. It’s also important to check the low voltage cutoff, we typically recommend setting it to 12.2V to help prevent battery drain. Setting a parking mode timer on the camera can also help limit how long it stays active. If you’re aiming for a setup that only records on impact, you can use auto event detection and lower the motion sensitivity to zero so it behaves more like a sleep mode until a trigger occurs. We agree installation can take some time, especially for a first setup, and professional installation is always a good option for a cleaner and more optimized result. If you’d like, feel free to reach out and we can help review your setup to make sure everything is configured properly.
Misleading defintion of product it says two channel, which in all of your other dash cams denoyes front and rear coverage but this is just two channel front coverage even thogh the telephoto camera says rear camera right on the camera and instructions
Thanks for your feedback, Chuck. We’re sorry for the confusion here. In dash cam terminology, “channels” refers to the number of cameras included in the system, not the direction they face. The product listing did not imply otherwise. That said, we understand how this could be confusing, especially since most 2-channel systems are front and rear. We’ll take a closer look at how we present this to make it clearer for future customers. If you were intending to purchase a front and rear setup instead, feel free to reach out to us and we’d be happy to help with the next steps.
Works great! Easy to setup and access it from the phone via wifi.
Thanks for the review! We’re glad to hear your A229 Pro was easy to set up and that connecting through WiFi has been smooth.
Shipping time was good, product as described, so far it works as advertised. Thanks
Great unit , only had it for a bit over month to replace the A129 duo
