4K Wide View & 4x Optical Zoom Telephoto
4K Front + 2K Telephoto Recording
From Wide Roads to Far Plates
Equipped with cutting-edge dual cameras powered by Sony’s latest STARVIS 2 technology, A229 Pro Tele delivers unmatched front recording in both 4K wide-angle and 2K telephoto views. Not only wide, but also farther — the 4x optical zoom telephoto camera captures distant details with clarity, perfect for reading license plates from afar.
Triple Sony STARVIS 2 Sensors
Equipped with cutting-edge three cameras that deploy Sony's latest STARVIS 2 technology, A229 Pro Tele delivers unmatched 4K&2K front
and 1080P rear recordings. With 4X optical zoom feature, the telephoto camera can capture objects at a greater distance,
making it ideal for obtaining farther and finer details like license plates or car models.
IMX678 & IMX675 Sensors
Less Noise, Less Motion Blur
A229 Pro Tele is the industry's first dashcam using two flagship Sony STARVIS 2 image sensors, for both two cameras. The two sensors, namely the
IMX678 and IMX675, offer wider dynamic range and higher light sensitivity than the STARVIS tech, bringing much less noise and
motion blur during day & night recording.
4K Ultra HD Front Recording
Exceptional Clarity, Stunning Detail
The front camera records in remarkable 4K with Sony STARVIS 2 1/1.8'' 8MP image sensor that packs in more pixels for greater clarity and detail.
It captures license plates and more details with exceptional clarity day and night, even in high-speed driving.
2K Video, 4x Optical Zoom
Capture Details From a Distance
The telephoto camera features a 4X optical zoom to clearly capture distant details like license plates and road sceneries.
It delivers sharp 2K videos with no distortion, making it easy to share stunning moments from your journey. It can complement
the wide-angle front cam by providing additional perspectives, offering a comprehensive view of the road.
Best Dashcam for Capturing License Plates
Zoom Farther, See Sharper, Even in the Dark
A229 Pro Tele is a perfect solution for license plate capture. Featuring a 4x optical telephoto cam, it brings distant vehicles into sharp focus — ideal for reading plates from afar. Powered by Sony STARVIS 2 sensor, it excels in low-light conditions, ensuring clear plate capture even at night or in fast-moving traffic.
2-Channel HDR
Capturing Clear License Plates is a Breeze
A229 Pro Tele is outstanding in a wide range of lighting conditions, by virtue of Sony STARVIS 2 sensors. The flagship sensors,
coupled with advanced HDR technology, balance extremely bright and dark areas
to accurately restore 4K & 2K details recorded at night, even capture accurate license details in fast move.

VIOFO Memory Card Recommendation
(Sold Separately)
Dash cams require a memory card that can withstand heavy writing cycles. A high-endurance card, designed especially for heavy use and write-intensive applications, is extremely critical for dash cam recording. Cheap cards are the main cause of most unexplainable recording issues, have poor performance in non-stop writing endurance, and are less likely to withstand harsh conditions. VIOFO industrial high endurance microSD cards, optimized for dash cam recording, give greater assurances around compatibility and long-life durability, greatly elevating your dashcam owner experience.
Dashcam Cable Wiring
A229 Pro supports seamless loop recording and overwrites the oldest videos with the last ones. With the built-in G-sensor, the dashcam will automatically lock the footage in case of collision or crash, recreating the accident scene for your peace of mind.
No More Worries About Running Out of Storage
*External SSD is not included. We recommend using VIOFO Type-C SSD cable (optional).
