TonyM-
You are right...when I bought my dash cam, it was claimed to have buffered parking and g-sensor parking modes. - - And like OzAdam, I do more research than most when I make a purchase... It was after doing all that research that I decided on Viofo.
And then when I was told by Viofo that they would fix my "unexpected problem" with the g-sensor in parking mode by the end of August, I believed what they told me... my bad! So now, almost 3 months later it looks like the problem might possibly getting solved....???
But for the guys here saying these "parking features weren't part of the deal" when I bought my camera, they are 100% wrong ...otherwise, if the a129 didn't have those features, I probably would not have purchased it.
I realize like OzAdam says, it's more a less a crap shoot when making some purchases... I too have many Samsung products because normally they're great quality. Btw Adam, I'm still hanging onto my S8+ as I think it's as good as anything Samsung has made since... I'll change it out, most likely for another Samsung, when I feel a new model is better...
I gave an account on another thread that while driving, the a129 works fine; if the G-sensor in parking mode finally gets resolved, that would be great.
