I have a Viofo A229 Pro dual, install was easy enough and video quality is great.

Yes I’ve had one since 2018. A VIOFO A119 V2 which I hardwired myself w/o parking mode. Last year I upgraded to a VIOFO A229 Pro 2CH which I got a shop to do. Started doing it from my interest in tech but came really handy when I got into a collision on the highway. Unfortunately this is a lesson most people learn the hard way as they don’t think they need one until it’s too late.

Second vote for viofo a229. Running it on my accord and my wife's crv. I honestly have nothing to compare it to(other then a couple cheap drive cams from like 7 years ago). But it works well and I don't have any complaints.
I recently upgraded from a Roav A1 to a VIOFO A229 Pro 2 CH (4K front, 2K rear). As others have said, stick with well-known brands, and check out r/Dashcam for IRL footage and comparisons. One tip regardless of model: use a high-endurance SD card. I’ve used SanDisk High Endurance cards since 2020, a 128 GB in the Roav and now a 512 GB in the VIOFO, while standard cards would typically need replacing at least 3 to 5 times over the same period due to NAND flash wear.
I got the Viofo a229 pro 2 channel and really like it a lot. It's not tiny so if you want totally discreet look elsewhere. Did a bunch of research and it was between that and the "plus" model by the same company. If you are ok with big files and don't mind getting a 512GB card Id say go with the pro. 4k video is a lot cleaner.
