Most dashcam is like black box. You will only know the content when you download the footage. The VIOFO A119 Mini 2 Voice Control WiFi Dash Camera, however, is not any other dash camera. It has a built-in display and a 1.5-inch HD LCD screen, that lets you see what the camera is seeing. Pretty neat, eh? But this feature isn’t new. Brands like Polaroid, Lanmodo, and more have dashcams with built-in displays. I just thought to mention it since most dashcams are literally just a camera.
Anyhoo, the star features of this powerful imaging device ought to be the Sony STARVIS 2 1/2.8-type 5.12 MP image sensor that offers high sensitivity and a wider dynamic range but with less power consumption. It can record at up to 2K 60 fps resolution, and at a sensitivity beyond the human eye can see in low light environments, and with low noise while eliminating motion blur.
Other highlights include an f1/6 aperture 7P lens with 140° FoV, intelligent voice control, voice notification, dual-band Wi-Fi for fast file transfers, G-sensor and motion detection, buffered parking mode that guards your car when parked (auto event detection, timelapse recording, and low bitrate recording), GPS logger, and auto emergency lock prevents accident footage from being overwritten.
The new VIOFO A119 Mini 2 Voice Control WiFi Dash Camera can be had as we speak for US$129.99. According to the website, shipping to the U.S.A. is free.
