You can see my post history. Ive asked and was persuaded to stick with the camera I bought and even requested another one at my own expense.
This is not bad experience with a single product.
I also really didnt like the way Viofo behaved. They sent used products on two occasions and support was non existent.
Its worth reporting this to people searching for cameras and not waste hours and money as i did.
The other issue is that it seems there are people on this forum such as yourself who seem to be asking for free products from manufacturers to review.
The only thing I see in your post history is that you created a thread, everyone suggested something and then you abandoned your own thread. When you don't come back or followup, people assume that your issue is resolved.
I received this new direct from Viofo. Its honestly buggy as hell. Changing settings in a certain order makes it go into a reboot cycle. Adding rear camera makes it go into reboots. I updated firmware to latest and using all official cables etc. It also gets very hot just doing nothing. That...

The same exact day you created the above thread, you were already shopping around for a new camera meaning you don't have any interest in solving your current situation assuming that it is legitimate.
I read early reports that the video quality is bad on this. Its had firmware updates since the reports. I was wondering if the video quality has improved? I recently purchased the Viofo a139 and honestly its buggy as hell how can people trust the reliability on this thing. The Viofo a139 nearest...

In another thread, you piggybacked on someone's thread stating that you have the same problem.
That person that created the thread came back to update us that everything is working now, so the problem he reported/faced seems attributable to "user error" and not a problem with the product. He received the exact same unit that he sent back.
Hi Everyone, I've just purchased A139 2CH. Wanted to set it on my desk before installing in car but I stumbled into a problem(s)... 1. I could not get it to boot from Anker Power Port desktop USB power supply. It only booted when connected via USB in my PC. It wouldn't work via USB-C though -...

You disappeared for 2 weeks and created this thread for advice on a new dashcam to which I recommended and you then commented "
Why does it look like a Viofo model?". I did not even bother to dignify it with a response because anyone that does not know that Viofo and Street Guardian are different companies is a waste of my effort, but other people more experienced than I am did. It's a public housing used by many dashcam companies...Viofo was not the first to use it, and they will not be the last.
You seem to have a personal vendetta against Viofo for some reason...
Looking for a reliable 2C camera. 2k Front 1080 Rear. Something with low power parking mode. Good quality picture. Dont need cloud or screen..etc Had too much trouble with Viofo so please something else in the same price range £$250.

And now, this thread.
The above is a summary of your post history.
Ive asked and was persuaded to stick with the camera I bought and even requested another one at my own expense.
Who here asked you to do this? Link to such post? Why would you buy a second camera at your own expense when your first camera issue is not resolved? That is the most ridiculous advice I've ever heard...assuming it even came from somebody. It sounds like this is something you did on your own merit and if so then it was a fool's errand.
The other issue is that it seems there are people on this forum such as yourself who seem to be asking for free products from manufacturers to review.
And there you go attacking other users trying to provide advice to you. It's no wonder that they stop to say goodbye or some don't bother responding in your thread again.
The manufacturers are the ones that provide them with this product, I doubt that they beg for it. There are people and distributors that review different brands...BlackVue, Thinkware, Garmin, Viofo, Mobius, and many other brands consistently.
The only person we know that attempted to do this was a user called
@HonestReview that seemed to always beg or fish for cameras.
