Could definitely be model specific. I have an A139 Pro 2-channel from 2023.
Still working on adding a feature filter to my site, but here’s all the no-screen front + rear options I carry. [DR590X](https://hachielectronics.com/products/blackvue-dr590x-plus) [DR970X](https://hachielectronics.com/products/blackvue-dr970x-plus-1ch-2ch) [DR970X-Box](https://hachielectronics.com/products/blackvue-dr970x-box-plus-2ch) [Q200](https://hachielectronics.com/products/thinkware-q200-1ch-2ch) [U3000](https://hachielectronics.com/products/thinkware-u3000-1ch-2ch) Viofo’s screenless front + rear camera (the 139 series) was discontinued a while back so they’re not listed anymore but I still have a couple A139 Pro 2CHs laying around. If you want one of those let me know. And yeah, as others have said, you can disable the screen on the other Viofos. Their form factor allows them to tuck nicely behind the rearview mirror so I would consider their other options too.
Two of my vehicles have the A139 Pro Front/Rear from 2023. And my newest car has the A229 Pro front/rear. Can’t recommend Viofo with the Starvis 2 sensor enough to people.
I have the Viofo A139 Pro Duo, and I really like it. Good pictures, smooth videos. I had a Rove R2-4k (front only) on my car that recently got totaled. It worked well through the wreck, kept the footage, etc. I had it for 5 years, no issues. There is a 2-channel option, also. If you haven't yet, I would really recommend going to r/Dashcam. They'll have different guides, and possibly more options. You can also look at dashcam video quality there and in some other subs (r/IdiotsInCars) is a fun one to see different camera quality. And please, for the love of all things shiny, get a 2-channel dash cam for your car, too. It's worth the cost.
[viofo A229 pro](https://www.blackboxmycar.com/products/viofo-a229-pro-tele-3ch-4k-2k-telephoto-4x-optical-zoom-1080p-dash-cam) you get 4k 30FPS front, a 2k 30Fps tele long distance front camera, and a 1080P 30FPS rear. This allows you to get really good footage in the front and with a telly lens, it allows you to have more time where you can capture a quality image of the license plate, even as they speed away. And since generally, the rear cars are coming at you the lower 1080 P is fine because they’re coming closer and closer. On ale 309, which leaves you some money for a sandisk MAX endurance micro SD 256GB card. Only use this card normal SD cards are not meant for the rights and rewrite cycles of dash camera sees.. these have a lifetime warranty specifically for dash camera and security camera usage. If you have quality ceramic window tint, you don’t need a CPL filter. If you have no window tint or it’s cheaper stuff then this is basically a polarized lens, which makes the image way more clear in sunlight. You can plug it into your cigarette lighter, or you can hardwire it in and activate the parking mode. So if it gets hit while you’re away, the G force sensor will record what happens in a set interval before and after detection. This is my viofo A139 pro duo https://www.reddit.com/r/ConvenientCop/s/hWlSYNXQnb at night time. Where the HDR it has comes in clutch
Happy with Viofo for almost a decade now. Since the first A119, currently running the A139 Pro 4k 2Ch and just got another A119M Pro delivered as a small Christmas gift for a family member's first car.
