Viofo A129 Duo Review - Still the Best Budget Front-Back Dash Cam in 2020
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- Viofo’s A129 DUO is the first front-back camera under $200 that has great video quality, stealthiness, and reliability. I've been waiting years for this camera. You can get premium-level features at a budget price and it’s my new gold standard in this category.
⚡️⚡️ UPDATE - Oct 15, 2020 ⚡️⚡️
A129 is going strong as my budget pick. The A129 DUO Plus has been released which has sharper 1440P front video quality. Good upgrade, costs more. I would avoid the A129 DUO PRO - too many problems and not enough benefits with 4K video quality.
I also released a video on our new $100 pick the Crosstour CR900: • Video I compared the A129 DUO and you can use that video to have a better understanding of dash cams.

Please do a review of the A129 DuoPlus!
I had bought the Viofo A119s based on your recommendation and it worked great for about 2.5 yrs (it had failed just last week). I will likely take your recommendation and get this A129 duo. Thanks for the great info!
Thanks for your great review, we will have a firmware upgrade to support buffered parking mode in near future.
When do you think it’s going to happen?
Awesome! Getting my a129 duo tomorrow. Buffered parking is a must.
THANK YOU!
This is fantastic news! The lack of buffered parking mode was my only grievance with the A129.
That's fantastic news, VIOFO! Looking forward for the buffered parking mode firmware
Based on your review I purchased Viofo A129 Duo system and couldn't be happier. I researched and researched for nearly six months, and your video stood out as the best review for my budget and driving needs. Thank you very much for your excellent work.
Awesome! Glad our research and review helped you out! Thank you for the comment.
-Andrew
Hey man how is it how holding up? I just got into an accident the other day and the other car fled. Thanks in advance
Strange that there's no mention of the fact the dashcam will stop recording on its own, don't you think?
All your videos are such high production quality. Answering questions I'd never think to ask, in a logical structure.
We do our best! Thanks Rubix!
-Andrew
After shopping for a week for a dash cam, this was the hands-down best review of any camera I've seen. Not because it's the best camera, because it's the best reviewer. Clear, intelligent, and to the point. I wish I was shopping for dash cams for frequently so I could watch your videos more lol.
Great job with your review Andrew! Your detail and production quality keeps getting better and better. 👍👍
Thanks Vortex! You're doing great job covering the latest releases! I enjoy watching your videos.
-Andrew
This is such a quality channel mate. Thorough, precise, unbiased and no bullshit. Keep it up.
Thank you very much!
-Rolands
Watched several videos now, and this guy!!!!! Every video is so great, such a quality review, so well put together! Amazing
Thanks! Much appreciated.
Yesssss. I've been looking forward to this review for a while. Thanks so much!
We've been looking to getting this review out too! Thank you!
-Andrew
Thank you for putting so much time in your reviews and dedicating yourself to finding all of this information. You get straight to the point and do it clearly and honestly, great videos!!
Thanks! I'm creating the reviews I would have wanted for myself when researching this information.
@@Lam you're a god send
Thank you so much for the review. I'm switching from the Rexing V1P Pro to the Viofo A129 Duo & VIOFO HK3ACC Hardwire Kit because of the parking mode. The info in your video was top notch. Your production quality was excellent too (except maybe bounce up and down a little less when you talk on-camera). Thanks!!
I appreciate how thorough this review was, thank-you.
You are VERY good at what you do, thank you for this!
Thanks for the great video. I just bought the A129 DUO Plus, my first dash cam. Was watching various videos and seeing how good the video quality (for the price) is on the A119V3, but wanted dual cam. The 4K Pro version cost a lot more and in many situations the video quality wasn't as good. And I'd rather 60fps than 4K 30 anyway. So I settled on the DUO Plus. Watching your video I was suprised about the 1080p+1080p then realised you covered the A129DUO on the the DUO Plus, which I then saw mentioned in your description. Although these have been out for awhile, in Australia with my budget and current sales, I think I should be happy enough with the A129 DUO Plus. Thanks for the comprehensive video though - very good vs other videos I've watched.
Thank you so much for this in-depth knowledge of dash cams! I’ll be getting an A129 now. I was recently in a hit and run but was incredibly lucky in that a tow truck driver with a dash cam saw the hit and got the driver’s plates.
Love the detail you go into with your reviews. Car cam Central is my most trusted source for dash cam info.
You are the dashcam guru!
🎩📷
I got the A129 for Christmas and love it the image quality is better then I expected night and day when through my rear window 5% tint you can still see great and for $200 with several accessories you can't beat it I'm very happy with it
Sweet glad to hear!
Hi Andrew! Love your reviews. Very in-depth and knowledgeable, really appreciate the fact you buy all the devices so there is no bias. Nice job!
I always come back to get update info from you, thank you
Thank you !! For Researching for Us especially me. Comprehending is a problem due to trauma to my brain- I've no idea of high tech stuff too much for me but with half a brain cell I have left (haha) I learned what gadget I need You're a Good Teacher and Great voice too others are annoying. God Bless You
Will you be reviewing the new VIOFO A129 Pro Duo 4K 2-Channel Dash Cam?
Excellent review and I’ve been patiently waiting for it after buying the A119 on your recommendation. Very happy with it. I just now bought the A129 right after your video from BBMC and used your code! Thanks for the thorough review. Can’t wait until it comes in the mail! Thanks for the effort CCC!
Hey Superduty - thanks a lot! Glad we were able to help and I think it's going to be a nice upgrade.
-Andrew
Great review! Subbed! Dash cams are so confusing to research, your channel makes it easy! I've been putting off my dashcam purchase for years because I didn't want to buy the wrong one. Thanks to you I know which one I'm gonna get!
Awesome - I'm glad I helped cut through the noise for you!
-Andrew
Great video. Subscribed.
UPDATE: MAY 19, 2019
A129 is still going strong. Viofo is still working on buffered parking mode: bit.ly/A129_Buff_Status While working there are a few bugs to be ironed out. We released a new microSD card review you should check out: ruclips.net/video/ccd0Oo5uBek/видео.html Getting the right card will improve reliability.
-Andrew
Car Cam Central can the rear camera be rotated to face the inside of the vehicle?
No, unless you apply adhesive to the back of the camera and stick it directly to the windshield.
-Andrew
I read on several Amazon reviews and Reddit comments that if you hardwire the A129, you HAVE to manually turn recording on when you start your car back up. Did you find this to be the case and do you know any workarounds? I have a family member who had a stroke and though all is fine, their short term memory is spotty so I can't trust they'll remember to turn recording on every time.
P.S. Thanks for bringing some sanity to the shopping experience. You read the 1 and 2 star Amazon reviews and find out so many companies pay for 5 stars. Other review sites don't run the cameras for any length of time and just check video quality. You folks really are the best!
Xavier Mayes I am using it just like that with a special holder designed for smartphones only but it fits to record passengers when i drive uber. Look for reticam xl on amazon and for the tripod connection, i am using an arkon handlebar mount which attaches to the rear view mirror arm. Furthermore, i turned the rear camera to face inside. Check out this video where i had an incident with a passenger. I have a 3 camera setup with the A129 duo only to record passengers and the A119 as the front dash camera: ruclips.net/video/fUeigxfSwek/видео.html
@@xaviermayes4962 u can just get the viofo A129 duo IR.. that works for interior.. check their website and see.. that also has buffered parking
I was almost sold, but I live in the carribean and at the end of the video you said look for another option 😭.
Anyway you are by far the best dash cam you tuber I've came across. Keep up the good work.
Excellent reviews very detailed and organized . I subscribed because of the quality of your reviews. I love your comparison documents on screen.
Thanks for the sub! We appreciate it!
-Rolands
Is there a review coming out for the VIOFO A129 PRO Dual Channel 4k?
I have it saved in my amazon cart but no reviews yet.
Do you have a recommended video for installing?
Andrew, Had been waiting for your review for months now. I'd say say worth the wait. Quality video as always.
Thanks Datta, glad I could help.
-Andrew
Thank you Andrew I purchased the 119s 11/9/2017 an thought there was 12 month warranty, your time an great reviews are
very much appreciated.
Regards Brian.
There is a 12 month warranty. Go through your retailer if you bought it from the sources we recommended - OCD Tronic // BlackBoxMyCar. They'll look after you.

Hi Andrew, (car cam central) any dual cams top picks for late 2021?
I am debating on model a129, a129 plus or 129 pro.
Im new to your channel and you're so informative. (watched sevarl of your videos already)
I’m wondering the same. Hopefully he has some good recommendations.
Hi Andrew, it's been 2.5 years now ( July 2021 ) since this review. Do you think the newer VIOFO A129 Pro Duo 4K 2-Channel Dash Cam has fixed the earlier problems with firmware updates ? Thanks :)
no answer amazing 😢
great content for those who needed. keep pushing it out bro! content content content. keep up the good work
it is great the way you break down camera performance
Can you do a review on the A129 duo pro please?
You said the Duo Plus is a good upgrade. It seems that the Duo Plus rear camera has a problem of dying, causing the system to stop recording altogether. And this requires a lengthy reboot time. Although the Duo Plus has a better front camera, would you still choose the original Duo for the sake of reliability?
Your review convinced me to get the A129 duo as well as the 128GB Samsung Pro Endurance micro SD you recommended! So happy with my purchase, can't wait to hardwire it to my car and test out the new parking mode. Thank you!
You're welcome Renze! Glad I could help. I think you got a really good combination there - hope it seres you well.
-Andrew
Thank you for the revue. I thought it was very professional, easy to understand an informative. Please keep making the videos I think there are very helpful. Great job. Thank you. William
I definitely will do my best William! Thanks for commenting.
-Andrew
Viofo A129 Pro Duo is coming. Please make a review and comparison with the A120 Duo.
Hey Faiz, it's actually out right now. I'm going to wait a month or two. I'm still thinking about the value of the 4K versus other cameras like Street Guardian.
I also wait as i don't know the reliability of the product. It's not something I can test.
Do you think it might behave like some of the other 4K cameras and perhaps not do as well for night footage?
Can you also review the a129 pro duo released recently?
I will in the future. From what I've seen of it, everything is the same as the DUO except the front camera is better. Much sharper day videos and the night videos are a bit better. If you want the performance and can spend the money, get it for $80 more. If you want the best value - it's the DUO.
Can’t wait to buy this on Tuesday , your review is excellent. I don’t want to deal with fraudulent claims anymore
Laselecta 90 how is the camera holding up?
Hi Andrew - I learned so much from your video and it is enjoyable too. I have watched a few of your reviews now and I must say the quality of the finished product, your knowledge, your excellent speaking skills and your likability are outstanding! You mentioned the word trust in your SD card video and I for one can say I do trust you.
Based on your honest, in depth yet easy to understand review I bought the Viofo A129 Duo yesterday as a gift for my husband. It arrived today!! He was surprised and excited! He is reading all the instructions right now. He is impressed so far. He'll install it on the weekend and I'll come back and tell you how that goes.
I got the Samsung Pro Endurance 128 GB SD card - thanks for that wonderful video as well!
Hey ILUVXO, that means so much when I hear that type of praise! It makes all the hard work `worthwhile, especially after numerous, painful revisions for clarity and brevity with the A129 and microSD card videos.
Glad you and your husband like it, hope it works for years to come and that you won't have to use the footage. All the best!
-Andrew
@@Lam We still love it and ordered a second one for one of our other vehicles. Also - we recommend to everyone and I must say Amazon.ca has better pricing for us than Blackbox My Car. Thanks again Andrew! :-)
Have u tried the 4k version of it?
A129 pro duo vs A129 duo ?
Excellent video and all the information I needed. You confirmed what I found from articles about the Viofo A129 Duo. Thank you.
You're welcome! Glad to help.
@@Lam even though there is now a Pro 4K version, I ordered the A129 Duo as it should be good enough for my needs. I think the 4K file size is prohibitive. Thanks again 🙂
Found your channel doing research for front and rear dash cams. It sounds good to me! I know nothing about dash cams and you saved me HOURS and HOURS of meaningless research that I don't want to do. Just picked one up and made sure I hit the affiliate link so you get paid :) Thanks a lot for this review, was a real time saver. Your affiliate dues are well deserved. I also knew nothing about microSD cards and picked one of those Samsung endurance cards also. Thanks again!
You're welcome Rudy and sorry for the late reply. Thank you so much for your trust and I hope it all works out well for you. Each review takes a lot of work so I love getting positive feedback when people find it useful (I'm also happy to take negative feedback too so I can improve things).
-Andrew
Parking mode should receive more informations - because it could suck out all energy of the cars battery if I don't use it daily.
That's what happen to me had to use the kit
Is the quality as good as the a119, noting it’s 2k and this is HD, is that a big deal?
When you hit lock video does it store two clips, one for front and one for back?
I tried this cam for a week and was frustrated from the video quality for both the front and the rear cams. If you already have viofo A119, you can buy another A119 and use it as a rear cam. The A119 is a real 2k cam, however the duo version is 1080. An alternative if you want the parking mode, is to try the DDPAI mini3, an amazing 2k dashcam with even better night vision than viofo, parking mode as the viofo duo version that automatically kicks in as long as a constant power is provided. You can DDPAI mini3 for less than $100 on Amazon with some coupons
Video quality is better than A119 V2 (which i had previously). Yes, hitting lock stores both front and back video footage separately. Bonus is the firmware update is done straight from the app.
The resolution is lower than A119, but the image quality at night is better on A129 thanks to the Sony Starvis sensors. I returned my A119 just because of poor night time quality videos
DarthMaul41 you are correct..Apologies I had the models swapped around in my 1st statement..quality was great with A119 but when it packed up under a year I returned it and got the A129 due to rear camera bonus as bumper bashing are very common. I've ordered another one today for the wife's vehicle.
During the day the A119 is sharper because of the higher resolution. At night the dynamic range on the A129 is better meaning you can capture license plates and the surrounding environment better.
@USC Thanks I'll check out the Mini3. I tried out the MIni2 and while I was impressed my main issue is that they haven't invested much out of China. Warranty support is limited and IMO one of the main reasons people get frustrated with dash cam brands.
-Andrew
Thanks for the info Andrew! Just last week I was wondering what what was up with you all! Happy to see you’re back reviewing and all the best for the new year! Cheers!
You're welcome! Our reviews do take a while and I'm looking to get that time down. I'm taking a bit of a break to fix up the website and articles and to give me a bit of a breather from doing video reviews. Should be faster in the future.
-Andrew
I've been waiting for this review. Nice work! It was worth the wait.
THanks Kevin!
-Andrew
The biggest problem with all dashcams that they are so visible from outside. I don't care if the dashcam will record thieves I'm just worried that thieves may break my car only to steal the dashcam itself. This problem is been solved by Mercedes which started to apply an optional built-in dashcam. Every single car sould have at least a special place (with universal dimensions) behind the mirror for applying a dashcam when needed.
Dashcams are the last thing a thief would be trying to steal from a vehicle, only reason for stealing it is to destroy evidence it may have captured.
Car makers run away from anything standardized or universal like a devil from garlic. Only the law can force them to use standards.
@@paige_judah5538 I don't know where you live but in my country thieves may broke the window even for a cable of phone charger :)
You are a cheap person ! The reality is if you have full comprehensive insurance you are covered for some contents under your insurance policy
Is the viofo A129 duo
and the viofo 129 Pro the same? If not, which of these would you recommend as the best?
Another great review! I am a fan of Viofo. I got the A119 and upgraded to the A119S. I had issues with the pins and wish I waited for V2 but it's not really a big deal. I would definitely consider the A129 for my next upgrade.
Glad you liked it! Thanks.
-Andrew
TXS for the quality reviews you produce. I did purchase a VIOFO A129 based on your review. TXS.
You're welcome Andy! Glad we could help.
-Andrew
Same. I'm happy with my purchase too
Although I like your work, it seem so long in between videos. With dash cams becoming a more popular product I could see you putting out a video out each WEEK. :O ...That way you CAN got into installations along with all the other topics (Explaining the technology, Features, Comparisons, Installations, Aftermarket accessories, etc...) I'd watch!
Yeah, we're looking to get that time down. Taking a bit of a break to fix up the website and articles then jumping back into video reviews.
-Andrew
What is the best memory card to be used for this? How much recording would be accommodated in a 128GB memory card?
That's a good point not a not people address, buy Samsung High Endurance Micro SD cards, they are specifically designed to be constantly used on security cameras.
Awesome! Thank you very much!
AMAZING video -- thank you so much for all the hard work and effort (it shows)!
Thank you for your great review. It sold me that this was to be my next dashcam. I've had my cam for 2 months now without any problems. Installation was a snap after watching your review knowing to use the app to set up rear cam and knowing to make sure the defroster line wasn't in the view of the cam like it was in your review ;) LOL. Only thing I'll add here about the app on a iPhone is initially the live view does not work. You have to put your iPhone into airplane mode and then turn on only the wifi. Then and only then can you see the live view. I highly recommend this dashcam too.
After a year of use I can say that it is a proper trash this camera. most of the time either it does not record video or there is some other problem
Some fucker keeps putting stuff on my car. Need something with parking mode. This the best one for the best price??
I'm sorry that happen to you, but your story made me laugh. who ever is doing it must be quite petty to go out of their way to continue doing that to you.
@@skateata1 yup! But that’s people now a days.
@@nonamebleach did u end up purchasing the camera? U get the fker on video?
Well...if you play a banjo...!!!
I returned as many cameras until I came across the VIOFO A129 best camera out there love it
This was a really excellent review. I have the A119S and overall have been happy with it, it had a few bugs which seem to have been straightened out with fw upgrades. I wasn't planning on staying with Viofo though for future dashcams but this video changed my mind, thanks.
Thanks Greg, glad we helped out. I'm glad they ironed out those bugs too as they dragged down the brand early on.

All dash cam camera sensors are poor quality. From €50 to €500
Safe to assume you paid over $500 for yours?
@@CinHalCedHerChance He isn't lying, check LTT's video.
there is a new sony sensor which is much better the ltt video and some products already use them
Viofo references this channel on their website. Makes me wonder if this is monetized
These are the best videos to help on picking the right Dash Cam. I like that you mentioned you weren't sponsored. Started to wonder considering how much you rave on the Viofo.
Hey, thanks for that feedback jscriv. I've been trying to show the work" and finding other product alternatives when it comes to VIofo. I didn't want people to think I'm being overly positive because I'm financially incentivized. I can also understand when VIofo gets lower reviews on Amazon versus other companies with 4+ stars.
-Andrew
@@Lam Thanks for addressing the Amazon reviews. I'm sure you've gone through them. Do you have any replies to the more problematic ones? I also asked this above, but one common complaint is that you have to manually restart recording if you hardwire your car. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks in advance!
Love the reviews that you guys publish, really helpful. Noticed some snow on a few of the videos yet no mention of cold or freezing temperature functionality
Would it be possible to include a one-liner for cold weather operations in future reviews?
Thanks
I'm hesitant due too many defect issues reviews.
I'm in the same boat. Did you find any additional details anywhere about it?
@@TechCOSnr I ended ordering two RedTiger dash cams, 100 bucks less and those even have a better Sony sensor, which is the IMX415. I'll receive them this weekend :)
@@DavidQuezada7 let me know how that works out!
@@TechCOSnr This review is bullshit
@@kdlittlehawk yeah, bought and immediately returned. It looks to me the seller did a bait and switch hoping their many thousands of reviews would obscure all the bad ones after they cheapened the product.
Stupid camera only uses Micro SD cards formatted in fat32. My PC today only uses NTFS, PC won't read fa32. So, I have to remove the dash cam from my car, plug it in directly to my PC and then it reads the Micro SD card. Problem is I want to move the files on the Dash Cam to my PC. I was using a 128GB Micro card, the PC system said during the file transfer that it will take longer than 1 day to transfer. Absolutely not workable, stupid, maddening issue no one tells you about. Doesn't matter at all how good the images are that the camera takes if you are not able to work with the video files conveniently. What kind of idiots could not even foresee this.
U can fa32 it with the camera itself
I would imagine it is better to check if your PC would process FAT32 cards as most dash cams use this system. All the info will be in the description and specifications which won't help if you don't know what they mean. You should be able to get a software converter program so your PC can do a much faster job than the camera's onboard converter.
been waiting for months for this review!

Awesome! Glad I was able to help Jose.
-Andrew
Thanks for the review! Got it a few days ago and works great.
Awesome stuff, glad it's working out for you
Another great review, Andrew! I'm pretty excited about this camera. I can finally move my two A119 camera's to my wifes car, and put the 129 duo in mine. I had been looking at pricier options. No real need for a more expensive camera now.
Hello Rysdan. Yeah, the A129 is a market breaker in that sense. Affordable price for a really great setup with a working parking mode.
-Rolands
Very thorough reviewer! I appreciate the hard work you put into this. The market is flooded (has been) with rexing products. I a avoided the brand myself and purchased a ddpai dash cam which now seems to be completely obsolete. That's my main problem with all these off brands, they never survive long enough to provide true valuable product integrity. Rexing however has been around for a while. I've only just heard of viofo, Amazon has a weird way of pushing specific products to the forefront while neglecting other choices that are probably better in quality and price.
Wow! great video review bro well done👍 I'm gonna buy this duo dashcam.
👍👍 Thanks Jonny
-Andrew
Great review.
Your choice made me purchase one and I love it.
Thanks
Thanks Canadian!
Good stuff Pal. After reviewing so many dash cams I'm so exhausted. With that said, I'm going to give this product a try. Will provide feedback at a later date once I have it in hand and a few months of use. Best wishes and safe travels mate.
Awesome, glad I was able to cut down the research for you. Hope it works out well!
Your videos really did help me with a ton of information and helped me decide on a dashcam.
I got a 129.
Apart from all the good things and short comings covered here, I felt a couple of things were missing and which were important for me.
I wanted to have a 4 side coverage. Since there are none such around (at least I could not find it), I decided to go for 2 dashcams with a dual (front & rear) cameras. So in all 4 different views from 2 different dashcams (front & rear twice). Here is where I ran into a couple of issues that were important for me.
1.I cannot connect 2 different Viofo Dashcams to my Viofo App on my mobile app simultaneously. This is the case if both were Viofo Dashcams. I will have to decide which of the two I want to connect my mobile to. Alternatively, I will have to buy myself another mobile phone connection and then have both the Dashcam recordings in two separate mobiles.
2. The second is that I cannot connect a single A 129 to two different mobiles simultaneously. Say if I were to loose my mobile, my 2nd mobile would have all the recordings (even though the loss of my mobile would be bad, my recordings may just save the day).
Imaginary/ Hypothetical ? Not really.
I actually have this on a GPS tracker that I use. 2 different devices (like 2 different dashcams). Their mobile App can store (and therefore track) multiple devices to a single app. Additionally, I have this on 2 different mobiles (not sure if it can be added on more…did not need it on more). Not that I am in any way connected to it nor am I being sponsored to say so, but OneLap Go is one such (there could be more)….So I am speaking from the experience of using multiple trackers on a single mobile app and the use of tracking on different set of mobiles simultaneously.
My plan is to travel a lot across different regions that speak different languages and under different governments…hence…. So now I have to decide how I wish to go about the 2nd Dashcam to ensure 4 side coverage - any dashcam other than a Viofo or to live with 2 mobiles each capturing one set of dashcams.
9:18 Please never commit to an accident. Always try to evade it the best way without any side-thought. God bless you for that.
Very informative. Thanks for helping me make the right choice. Went with the Viofo A129 Duo IR. Amazon Prime for 143. What a steal.

thanks so much for the review, you did the work for me and I'm buying this one. I did subscribe and looking forward to your new channel as well. I am also going to get the VIOFO CPL Filter for the glare. I can't find the remote for saving a recording but thanks you again.

very intelligent and "medical" evaluation !! Best Review on RUclips.
Thanks Marcio!
Great review Andrew. My only issue with all the dash cam are not that reliable and the WiFi connection and a dead spot. I used to have a thinkware f700 and the WiFi was terrible. Keep up the good work.
Hi I am from India. I always wait for your videos your reviews are best and very useful quality of your videos are also great. Sepcially for this camera i was waiting from long time even asked you about this model. Yet i did not start watching this video but i liked the video and writing this comment.

Thank you for your review. As always you have answered most of the questions I might have had.
I do have a question pertains to what memory card you are using for this product. I’ve seen your other reviews pertaining to memory cards. I guess I’m just asking if you have a good recommendation for this product.
I will be ordering this product in the very very near future. I currently have the 119V2 but want this one for all of my family members. Daughter got rear ended a few weeks ago and wish she had this in her vehicle.
