Love your channel. I purchased the Viofo A119 Mini 2 about two weeks ago. I like it so far. In the video you stated that you have to use the USB C connection on the GPS module. I have mine connected to the A119 mini 2 directly and the GPS module still works fine.

I too have been running the Viofo A119 for 5+ years - works great. Only once it somehow wasn't recording. Video quality is ok and the newone looks ok - of course all of these dash cams have shite-ish video quality compared to a decent smartphone but you can't go wrong with the Viofo A119.

I’ve had this for years and works great. I originally had a battery one but it died shortly after leaving it in the car because of the Florida sun. This one has a capacitor instead of a battery so it has survived the heat for years and still going strong. Highly recommend this camera.

Nice one, wyze could be a good one if they start making dash cam By the way my friend I thought you were gonna let one slip ( @5:13 so this is the video and audio quality of wyze/ ring/reolink 5:22 this what I look like when I’m close to the door) 😂 You should ask Viofo to try out their 3 channels rear view mirror dash cam unfortunately I don’t own one but I heard it’s pretty awesome.

I have a 2023 Honda Accord hybrid. I’m still waiting for the Dongar dongle adapter for the dimming rear view mirror so I don’t have to run a wire around my car. Maybe this will happen soon, as I really like this camera. One serious problem with these Wi-Fi dash cams is that if your car has wireless Android Auto, as mine does, the dashcam will terminate your Android Auto while the dashcam is connected - not cool.

Just turn off the WIFI on the dash cam. You really don't need it until you have to retrieve the footage or change settings.

What's the difference between: (1.) Sony STARVIS 2 Sensor 5MP IMX675 and (2.) Sony IMX335 STARVIS ? "Mini vs Mini 2?" Audio: 'Echo chamber sound'. Not much difference between A119 V3 and Mini 2. Actually, the audio on the V3 is better.

Just a note on multi-channels one...most if not all, the front facing cam is the higher resolution one and the in cabin(interior) and rear cams are only 1080P. The better setup and I'll do a video on this soon..is to have for example 2 of these Viofo Mini 2's..one in the front and one in the rear. There is usually a USB port or power charger port on the rear or the back side of cars nowadays anyways....@@LysanderLH
