    Q
    Hi, Is this an original Viofo product?

    By MGy Nov-21/2016 08:11:44

    A
    Hello MGy,

    This is not an original Viofo product. Thank you for your attention.

    • hamwhisperer on 18/12/2017 - 16:37

      Keen eye….. wtf?

    • adr8 on 18/12/2017 - 16:38

      No not a Viofo, but according to https://dashcamtalk.com/b40-a118/ GearBest sell two versions the Viofo and Unbranded both of which get their tick of approval regarding which ones to buy - See quote below.

      There are a few places to purchase this camera from. Price is usually under $60 from > > China (sometimes under $50) and a bit more expensive from Amazon.

      For the Capacitor Version (A118C)

      Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.ca, Amazon.de
      Gearbest (VIOFO)
      Gearbest (Unbranded)
      Spy Tec on Amazon.com and on their site (US based seller)

        How much is the price difference between this and genuine Viofo anyway?

        • adr8 on 18/12/2017 - 18:50
          +2

          GearBest no longer sell the Viofo but when they did there was only a few dollars difference between the two.

          I have purchased 5 x A118C cameras for myself/family both generic A118C and Viofo A118C dashcams.

          I can confirm that The Viofo camera's are much better quality video with a sharper picture but you generally pay more with the Viofo cameras than the generic non branded ones. I would get the Viofo version if within your budget (or on a great deal) or overwise the generic camera is certainly a great lower cost option.

          As far as reliability, I have never had any problems with any of them installed over the last year and half (even in Perth 45 degree heat). The A118C is a great style camera that integrates well in the car so doesn't stand out.

          @m in perth: Thanks. Great review!

    I use these in both my cars, no problems yet after 12months. Quality is good as well!

      I nearly got one but I saw it's really best to properly wire the thing in for power permanently - doing that looks quite awkward in general, pulling bits off the side of the interior and what have you.

      Also I googled there's an S version 2 model or something, Sony lense, better night vision and GPS or something.

  • woteva on 18/12/2017 - 16:52

    Got one for my work vehicle. Didnt want to spend too much and have been looking at this one for a while.

  • Unbreakable on 18/12/2017 - 17:07

    Dam just brought one two days ago, will they refund the difference?

      Where did you bring it?

  • iratepirate on 18/12/2017 - 17:33

    Thanks - got one to replace the one the Queensland police seized from me as evidence; I don't think I'm going to get it back anytime soon…

    • cyssero on 18/12/2017 - 17:57

      A memory card or copy of the file wasn't good enough for them?!

      • iratepirate on 18/12/2017 - 18:11

        I'm not complaining - I was about five hours into being interviewed for unlawful homicide when I remembered I had the dash cam.

        They also took my truck, the clothes I was wearing and my phones. They could only keep the car for seven days, the phones took four months to get back. My clothes and dash cam are being kept as the investigation is ongoing.

          Well.. how could I not buy one after hearing that!

          @cyssero: Best $40 I ever spent. I tell people to buy one now as a public service announcement.

          One detective commented that the video was better quality than some bank recordings of armed robberies he'd seen.

          Here is a video I took with this camera (note:- Facebook compresses the hell out of them and the actual video is clear enough to get the rego and see who's driving.)

          @iratepirate: So what hapenned? You had a big bingle, they didn't believe your side of the story? They finally grabbed your dash cam and you're now in (less) trouble?

        • iratepirate on 18/12/2017 - 19:23

          @hamwhisperer: Don't really want to go into it as it's not over yet, but it was nothing to do with traffic offenses.

          I had made a statement to the police as to my whereabouts and movements and the only alibi I had was a three year old…until I remembered the dash cam.

          Is this your fb account? You're brave to use your name if it is. Some of these truckies aren't the most friendly bunch when being confronted over their driving behaviour.

        • iratepirate on 18/12/2017 - 20:00

          @whooah1979: :) I know Dexter is a clothing line, but I don't think blood splatter will ever take off as a fad.

          Not my real name - google "bob dobb". I am an ordained minister of his though.

          blood splatter

          This sounds interesting. Let's see what mr google have to say.

  • wtfnodeal on 18/12/2017 - 17:42

    any good compared with G1W-CB?

    • mattman on 18/12/2017 - 18:37
      +2

      Video very similar, but the A118C is much smaller and easier to mount discreetly. Also the 3M tape isn't going to randomly fall off or move about like suction cup + ball joint. If you watch any dashcam vids you'll notice in an impact that some fall off entirely, some change angle etc.

      • aec on 18/12/2017 - 19:03

        This is the most useful comment if not only under this deal. Thanks. I am looking to upgrade my g1w=cb to something that can record better vid quality.

      • wtfnodeal on 18/12/2017 - 20:28

        video quality very similar? my G1W-CB is ok but not so great during the daytime but useless for night recording. Hope there is one with infra red etc. for better quality.

  • davodinkum on 18/12/2017 - 18:04

    Ordered one for the mrs then went to order another one for my rear view but code now expired?

    • tadere on 18/12/2017 - 18:15

      still works for me

      Still working for me, perhaps create a new account if you're having issues?

      • davodinkum on 18/12/2017 - 18:59

        Yep created a second account and worked. Thought if would allow me 2 per account instead of 2 in the one order

  • louiesrachel on 18/12/2017 - 18:12

    this is quite old and out dated,not even genuine viofo. still thinking buying a better dashcam for my parents, hope its not too late. anyne recommeded a local stock with warranty?

  • wingzee on 18/12/2017 - 18:40

    Thanks OP. Since ordered one as a rear dashcam. Got the A119S as the front so hoping to get one cheaper one for the rear and this looks like the best one for below $40!

  • sltsta on 18/12/2017 - 19:26

    You need to think twice to buy from gearbest. If you get a defect product, then it will cost you more on shipping to return the product.

  • DonIsGood on 18/12/2017 - 19:45

    Bummer - code expired :(

    Received both my cams yesterday. Great value considering the cost. Quality is good but not as good as my Viofo A119s but is perfect as a rear view camera.
