Viofo A129 Duo
Hi Everyone

How is everyone doing! :cool: All good I hope.

I will keep this brief & to the point as best I can.

I'm kinda torn between the Viofo A129 duo (2k) or (4k) for my new vehicle, I use to have the Viofo A129 duo (1080p) front & rear which was very reliable apart from a faulty rear camera cable (after 16 months I beleive) which Viofo sent me out a whole complete new rear cable & rear camera for free so because of that service alone I want to honor them & choose another one of there duo dashcams (y)

Amazon (2k) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/B08DV5MQ1C
Amazon (4k) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/B07RZP8K3Y
Viofo UK (2k) https://viofodashcamera.co.uk/products/a129-plus-dual-dash-cam-front-rear
Viofo UK (4k) https://viofodashcamera.co.uk/products/a129-pro-dual-dash-cam-front-rear

I won't be usng parking mode or be hard wiring the dashcams etc as I will be using a permanent live from the in car 12v cigarette lighter & unplug it as of when I want to, which is something I've always done with my old Viofo duo with no issues at-all.

I have also been looking at the SG9663DCPRO+ from street guardian but being only 1080p front & rear & nearly over £250.00 it is a lot of money for less tech? But I'm still not ruling it out.

Is there any benefit purchasing direct from Amazon or Viofo UK? & What would be (A) reliable & (B) what people would recommend.

At the moment driving around with no dashcam makes me feel naked :eek: :LOL: so I really need to purchase one ASAP! It's awful having to drive with no dashcam...I hate it :mad:

Thanks Folks (y)
 
Well I actually found a few posts asking the same question(s) as me! So after checking through them etc...I decided on the A129 duo plus (2k) & purchased it direct from Viofo UK, hopefully will receive it on Wednesday & will fit it in the vehicle the same day.
 
What did you find out regarding SG9663DCPRO+ vs a129 plus duo?

If you use the links above & compare them they are both very good dashcams but in the end I didn't go any further with the SG mainly because of the price was more expensive for the SG which was a main factor, I probably would of if the SG was the same spec in terms of 1440p but in the end I just disregarded the SG to be honest, I would be lying if I said I went any further with it.

I do like the shape of the SG rear view camera though.

They are the same people, but if you go through Amazon, it may be a little easier to return.

If you hadn't already purchased, it would also be worth considering the Viofo A139, which is 2K in a different format to the A129 Plus.

I was also looking at the A139 considering it's newer & just another £50 on top which ain't bad really (on offer price) But went with the A129 plus just because I had that style/shape dash cam with the original A129 duo & like it to be honest but have to admit that the shape/style of the rear camera for the A139 looks nicer then the A129 rear camera for sure.

I just purchased direct from Viofo UK still the same amount of warranty etc but thought to go direct to help support UK businesses rather than old money bags Jeff taking his cut :LOL:
 
Yeah, unfortunately, I think the price is the biggest hang up for the SG. I heard there customer service is great though but I tend to be cheap. I've heard good things about viofo too though.
