It’s been \~2 years but I’ve been super happy with my Viofo A139A…supposedly has a better CCD than the rest or something, but easy install & clean images = an endorsement
Get any Viofo dashcam on sale from Amazon. Sony Starvis sensor models is what you’re looking for. I’ve had the a139 and the a229 duo before, both work as advertised. For install I’m sure you can save some money and figure it out yourself - it’s really not that hard.
I went through 3 Viofo A139s due to two of them not being able to hold an SD card (the clip to hold in the card broke and shot the card out the side of the camera). One of them kept rebooting. Once my warranty expired, they agreed to have me pay only $30 to replace each one out of warranty. I’m in coastal California, so there’s sun but not Arizona/Texas heat.
Two different cams with the same clip issue. I didn’t wait until the warranty expired.
The first time the SD clip broke, it was under warranty and I sent it in for a free replacement. When the SD clip broke on the replacement camera, it was like 4 months after the first one broke, but out of the original warranty period. I paid $30 to replace it. The new replacement camera only lasted for 3 months until it when into a boot loop. $30 later and the new camera hasn’t had any problems in 2 years.
