Question 70mai A810s vs. VIOFO A229 Plus
Hello,
I’m currently weighing between the 70mai A810s vs. the VIOFO A229 Plus as my first dash cam. For the 70mai, I can get that, a 256GB SD card, and its CPL filter for $225 after a discount code. For the VIOFO, I can get that, a 256GB SD card, and its CPL filter for $344 after taxes from Amazon. I don’t drive much currently but thought a good dash cam setup would be worth the money, especially when I start driving more again for work or whatever reason. I might be Doordashing soon as well, so that would include night driving, just unsure how long I’d be doing it.
Is the 70mai the better deal? I realize its rear cam is 1080p and it is less well-known than the VIOFO, but I’d be paying an extra $120 for the VIOFO. I have the money for either, but would prefer to save if possible.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Not comparing, but my experience with tge 70mai + haerdwire kit has been great. I got the 4k front and rear. It stopped working the first day, and I got a replacement within days and all is good.

Good to know. It seems like a legit good cam setup, especially for the value

The a229pro is cheaper on AliExpress when there’s discounts. Selling straight from Viofo store
