This Dashcam Might Be as Good as It Gets — Here’s Why It Costs so Much (Aff)
The A229 Ultra features upgraded Sony Starvis 2 sensors and a fisheye interior camera, offering improved resolution and coverage for premium dashcam buyers.
- Viofo's new A229 Ultra pushes resolution and coverage to the absolute limit, positioning it as a premium, higher-cost upgrade in the premium dashcam market.
- Driven by the specification arms race, Viofo upgraded the rear to 4K to out-spec the Vantrue N4 Pro S, which uses a 2.5K rear camera to enhance distant face and plate recognition.
- All three cameras on the A229 Ultra use Sony Starvis 2 sensors, and the interior fisheye camera broadens cabin and outside views, unlike the A229 Pro with lower resolution cameras.
- Those upgrades could enable identifying would-be car thieves or reading number plates, but they raise the price notably compared to more affordable two-channel options.
- With accessories, buyers may reach 500 as optional Bluetooth remote, hardwire kit, or polarising lens can push final retail toward 500, against the 370 price of the three-channel Ultra.
