Flagged as a product to avoid

1 of 3 research runs entered this as a product to avoid rather than a pick.

Expensive for what it does: it delivers maybe 90 percent of what the Viofo A329S does at a premium, and long-term owners complain about the very short buffered capture window and feature limitations that sting at this tier. The A329S or A229 Pro is the smarter buy.
