expletives 0.5Get a VIOFO and hardwire kit. It can do a type of sentry mode if it has constant power. I use the 119 and 129 front and rears on my vehicles, no problems in a few years so far.
Viofo 2 channel(front and rear) in my cars. Been running for years with no issues. I believe the specific models are the A29 Pro. And a plus. Can be had for around $150-175. Set and forget. I’ve caught lots of crazy drivers to watch later too as a bonus!
Lanky-Cup-8343 0.5Definitely Viofo. Never had an issue with the 6+ that we('ve) own(ed).
69AssociatedDetail25 0.1I've not got a rear camera, but I'm more than happy with my Viofo A129 Plus. They've sponsored a few YouTube channels, so you can probably get a discount through one of their promo codes.
Yeah they're not cheap, but worth it in my opinion. I think they're also the only brand to use capacitors instead of batteries, which gives me some extra confidence that my car won't randomly catch fire on a hot day.
bsibe2006 0.1I just ordered this with a viofo a129 plus from them for my 23 premium. Hopefully I got the right adapter.
bstyledevi 0.1I've got the Viofo A129 Plus (front cam only). I've had it in three different cars now and haven't had an issue yet. Fits perfectly up behind the rearview mirror so it's not always in your face. The app leaves a little to be desired, but you get what you pay for. Video quality is great.

Complete_Gear_7063 0.1Viofo 129 plus with hardwire kit
CrapIsMyBreadNButter 0.1Viofo. They have options ranging from $100 - $500. I've had the A129 plus on mine and my wife's cars for 3.5 years with no issues.
CrypticClif 0.1Viofo brands are very reliable and one of the most common ones. I have the Viofo 129 because I figured 1440p was enough quality, and I wasn't wrong. The one above is 4k resolution. Easy install and even easier to tuck the wires. If you care enough though, their hardwiring is a seperate buy, but i heard most dash cams being hardwired in tend to always trickle battery power no matter what.
deathbatdrummer 0.1This is just straight up false. [Almost EVERYONE is Wasting Money on Dash Cams.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AnyhHl3_tE) Personally use a Viofo 119v3, which is 150ish. Superb dashcam, and if you want one with a rear cam too you can get the a129 plus for under 300.
Emotional-Start7994 0.1I have a Viofo A129 Plus 1440p front, and 1080p rear. Very discreetly tucked away behind my rear view mirror. I've had it for over 2 years now and it still works great. It has a GPS base which also provides power. And I have a polarising filter that clips over the lens too which helps reduce dashboard reflections (was a separate purchase). They now do an A329 which you may want to look at which is 4K and even better quality than the A129 (and A229). However it's quite expensive at just under £350.
