@USDashCamera is working on an A119 V3 video review. Here is a little preview:
EDIT: Day is up already (night coming soon) https://dashcamtalk.com/forum/threads/head2head-viofo-a119-v3-comparison-with-v2-pro-a129.39661/
Top Left A119 V2, Top Right A119 V3,
Bottom Left A119 Pro, Bottom Right A129
30 mph

Stock V2 to V3 shows the impressive improvement.

What would interest me is a similar comparison between V2 running .6Ro v V3 1.02

 

[Tractor]

Hold Tight. Come to a cinema near you soon.

Wow .. what an improvement with the V3 over the others. Nice work there OCD.
I want to see night vision before being completely sold... to see if VIOFO have got rid of the yellow wash over night vision that was a turn off in the A119.
Never been happy with the A119PRO ... although can't grizzle too much .. nudge nudge..
I'd like to see the A119V3 compared to the latest A119S to see which is better ... day and night.

Wow, the clarity from the V3 is amazing in that comparison photo.

Bitrate is still small, you need at least 50
The picture will smooth out a lot.

Amazon is a love/hate relationship at times. Hopefully they are making things right for you.
Open a live chat with an Amazon fulfillment support agent
This is the .com link but there should be a similar .ca one. @OCD Tronic Canada would know.

Spoke to someone at Amazon.ca this morning (a week after placing the order).

They are saying they are having trouble sourcing the camera.
Mine is supposed to ship July 5th and be delivered July 8th.

Heat generated in cam would stop that Bitrate being rolled out.

No, I have on A129 with 1440P, bitrate 50 - the picture is super !!

I have moved on from the duo and now have the 119 front and back, V2 and V3 respectively. There's no Bitrate out that high for them.

How do you get 1440p on the A129?

interpolation

interpolation

Unofficial?

 

[vvs49]

Unofficial?

Well, of course - my firmware !!
Default is Russian, cycle = 1 min.
Select resolution:
1. 1080Р - bitrate 50_60fps as well as WiFi
2. 1440Р - bitrate 50_30fps

When we open firmware 119, I will make 4K

 

[Paul Iddon]

Be interesting to see RAW video of your 50 Bitrate...

 

[nutsey]

I will make 4K

Why? 2608x1960 would be the best matching full sensor readout without any interpolations.
