In this review, I will share my thoughts on the car dash cam installation process and how it has positively impacted my daily commute.

Additional Features: The car dash cam came equipped with various useful features.

Additionally, the dash cam's loop recording feature ensured that the oldest files were replaced by new ones, optimising storage space.

There is no other option. Spoke to Vijay from Viofo and understand that stock will be back in 10 days.

Thanks for sharing the review on the dashcam. I recently purchased nexdigitron ace plus and it's doing well. But, we both have made same mistake of fixing it to the left side of IRVM.
The wiper doesn't clean that stretch where camera focuses. Had it been right side, it would capture much better visuals. I'm not sure which tape I should now buy to remove and fix it again.
On a sunny day, it works like a charm

My car has a ADAS module just under the IRVM so decided to place the dash-cam to the left side. Also this Cam comes with 140° Wide viewing angle & covers then entire road view. You can watch this video wiper can reach the dash Cam area.

I had used this tape when I transferred my dashcam from my Ford to my Grand Vitara. Its been a week now and no sign of it coming loose, in spite of the many rumble strips I have to negotiate on my way to work and back.
I think similar individual patches are also available on Amazon, try locating them if you don't want the entire tape. However, this tape is useful for various jobs around the home too, so it's not a bad idea to have it around.

I think at that cost, it's way beyond the regular ones that we find in the market. But at the end of the day, alls well if the customer is satisfied with the product. Great review, thank you!

Hi what was the price and from where you have got the camera?

[Sebring]

Good buy indeed, But a display screen is very important, wonder why VIOFO removed it? The brand is certainly reliable, and mine has lasted 5 years.

Looks good but does it have a Capacitor (recommended ) vs a battery (not recommended) ?

From all the reviews I have seen on Youtube for various dashcam brands, it seems ditching the screen gives the camera more high temp stability, meaning the tendency to hang or stop recording in hotter climates is much lesser.

This will probably be one of the most expensive Dashcams money can buy. My Yi dash cam costed 3K while my D5200 DSLR cost under 24 !

[Mathan1130]

Hello Sam,

There are few dash-cams which are even costlier than Viofo A139 pro like Thinkware U1000 & U3000 which is priced Rs 43,000 & RS 60,000.

But if you check the sensor of Thinkware U3000 it has the same Sony Starvis2 IMX678.
