VIOFO A229 Pro 2CH 4K Dash Cam
Help me choose the right setup
Overview
The VIOFO A229 Pro pairs a true 4K front camera with a 2K rear, dual Sony STARVIS 2 sensors and an included front CPL filter — premium front-and-rear coverage that reads plates with ease.
Who it's for
For drivers who want 4K detail up front plus solid rear coverage. It's the sweet spot of the A229 range — sharper than the Plus, more affordable than the Ultra — and a favourite for those who want serious clarity without the flagship price.
- 4K front + 2K rear
- STARVIS 2 IMX678/IMX675
- Front CPL included
- GPS + 5GHz Wi-Fi

- Built-in GPS and 5GHz Wi-Fi
Worth knowing
- Parking mode needs the HK4 hardwire kit (sold separately)
- 4K + 2K files are large — use a high-endurance card
- For 4K rear as well, step up to the A229 Ultra
- microSD card sold separately
A closer look
4K front, 2K rear
The A229 Pro puts the resolution where it matters most: a true 4K front camera using Sony's STARVIS 2 IMX678 8MP sensor for class-leading detail, backed by a sharp 2K rear. Plates stay readable front and back, day or night.
Glare handled, light handled
A front CPL filter is included to kill windscreen reflections, and dual STARVIS 2 sensors with HDR keep footage clean in low light and high-contrast scenes — the kind of conditions where cheaper cameras fall apart.
Compatibility
The A229 Pro is a 2-channel (front + rear) dash cam. Add the VIOFO HK4 hardwire kit for parking mode, the RNF210 cabin camera for interior recording, and a VIOFO microSD card for storage. Ask us for help.
Installation
Mount the front camera behind the mirror, route the rear cable to the back window and power from the 12V socket — or fit the HK4 kit for parking mode. We can recommend an installer for a clean finish.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Pro different from the Plus?
The Plus is 2K front and rear; the Pro upgrades the front to true 4K (and includes a CPL filter). Choose the Pro if you want maximum front detail.
Should I get the Pro or the Ultra?
The Pro is 4K front + 2K rear; the Ultra is 4K front + 4K rear. Go Ultra if you want maximum rear detail too; the Pro is the better value if the front is your priority.
Does it include a CPL filter?
Yes — a front CPL filter is included to cut windscreen glare for clearer daytime footage.
Does it have parking mode?
Yes, with the VIOFO HK4 hardwire kit and its low-voltage battery protection.
