Dash cams are no longer just “nice to have” — for many drivers, they’re essential. That’s where the Viofo A329 comes in: a serious piece of tech that pushes the limits of what a dash cam can do.

1. Unrivaled Video Quality

The A329’s front camera captures 4K at 60 frames per second, which is a huge deal. That high frame rate means smoother, more detailed motion — perfect for capturing license plates or fast-moving incidents.
Both the front and rear cameras use Sony STARVIS 2 sensors, giving excellent dynamic range and better low-light performance.
For the rear, the camera captures in 2K (2560 × 1440) at 30 fps.

2. Next-Gen Platform

Under the hood, the A329 runs on a Quad-Core ARM Cortex A53 chipset, helping it handle the heavy lifting of 4K video.
This processing power also enables some of its “smarter” features — more on those below.

3. Blazing Fast Connectivity

It supports Wi-Fi 6, which is not common in many dash cams. The benefit? File transfers are much faster — a one-minute 4K clip can download in about 10 seconds.
That makes it realistic to offload video to your phone or tablet quickly, without waiting forever.

4. Built-In GPS, Voice Control, and More

The A329 uses a quad-mode GPS that taps into GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou for highly accurate tracking.
For convenience, there’s voice control: you can start/stop recording, turn Wi-Fi on/off, take snapshots — all by voice.
Voice notifications also alert you to issues like memory card errors or setting changes.

5. Storage That Keeps Up

One of the most compelling features is external SSD support — the A329 can work with SSDs up to 4 TB, giving you way more recording buffer than just using a microSD.
It also supports microSD cards (up to 512 GB).
Loop recording is supported, meaning old files get overwritten automatically — but with SSD storage, you can keep more.

6. Parking Mode Protection

The A329 supports three parking modes (if you use a hardwire kit like the HK4): motion detection, time-lapse, and low-bitrate recording.
There’s a built-in low-voltage cut-off to protect your car’s battery.
When an event (like a bump) is detected, the G-sensor will auto-lock that clip so it doesn’t get overwritten.

7. Other Useful Features

The dash cam comes with a Circular Polarizing Lens (CPL) for the front camera (optional for the rear), which helps cut glare and improves image quality on reflective surfaces.
The bundled car charger has two USB-C ports, so you can charge your dash cam and another device simultaneously.
There’s a 2.4″ color screen that shows a live view and menu, plus status LEDs for power, recording, GPS, mic, and Wi-Fi.

Here are some settings that people commonly recommend to get the most out of the A329, balancing quality and storage:

Setting	Suggested Value
Front Resolution	4K @ 60 fps (for max clarity)
Rear Resolution	2K @ 30 fps (good clarity + storage balance)
Bitrate	“High” or “Maximum” for best detail
HDR	Use HDR (especially at night or lower light / contrasty scenes)
Loop Recording	1 or 2 min segments suggested
Time-lapse (for Parking)	Some users run time-lapse at 1 fps for parking

Who Is This Dash Cam Best For?

Frequent drivers or long-distance commuters: With SSD support, you can store tons of footage without constantly offloading.
Safety-conscious drivers: The combination of high-quality video, GPS, and parking protection makes it very reliable.
Tech-savvy users: Because of the advanced features and storage options, it’s great for users who don’t mind tinkering with settings.
Professionals / Fleet Drivers: If you’re driving for work, having external SSD storage and high-res video is a big plus.

Final Thoughts

The Viofo A329 is a powerhouse of a dash cam. It’s not just about recording — it’s about capturing excellent clear video, even in demanding situations. For drivers who want top-tier quality, long-term storage, and intelligent features like voice control and GPS, it’s one of the most compelling options on the market today.
