VIOFO
Across the reviewers we read, the VIOFO A229 Plus draws the most consistently positive technical consensus in this pool. High-trust r/Dashcam discussion describes it as 'the best overall both in terms of specs, reliability and functionality,' and another user there judged the Viofo's video quality better than a competing Vantrue partly because the lens sits closer to the windshield.
