More than I can review. ;)
It's not side-by-side in one video as that doesn't really make sense due to low resolution when combined so here are videos at the same time/place from these two dashcams.
Both cameras are from @GearBest.

My opinion: Viofo A119 has better picture quality.
 
FOV of 0805p seems less than A119 ?
In daytime, A119 is better. :)
How about nightime ?
 
Depending on what ppl want when they buy a dashcam. Example:

if in red circle, there was a crime happening. So what dashcam will be better ? :)

Everything that matters from a dash cam perspective is either fuzzy or blown out. Hypothetically if there was a crime taking place on that sidewalk, one would catch a blurred image at best.

What I don't get is why a company would even bother with something that produces inferior video quality than their previous models. That's the one and only thing the Mini series had going for it.

I think i can answer that question. This model was designed for running 24/7. So it have to run at low capacity, less heat...means resolution is not good as other models.
And if we consider dashcam for recording events , not for recording registration plate, then 0805p has done well the job.
 
The A119 is a strong competitor which can make many cams look bad in comparison, but there's no excuse for the 0805 doing so poorly at night. Even a crappy cam can show car positions and traffic signals; details are what make the difference- especially seeing number plates at night. Mini has widely missed the target with the 0805 :(

i agree details made diffirent between two kind of dashcam but there were thing that were seen and these things cant be seen in these picture of A119 above.
How can a good dashcam miss the details like that ? so what's good for ?
 
Evening and Night screenshots: Mini is brighter but not as good as Viofo.
