A229 PRO TELE 3CH DASHCAM
4K Front, 2K 4x Optical Zoom and 1080P Rear Dash Cam
Equipped with cutting-edge three 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, and 1080P rear recording. Not only wide, but also farther - the 4x optical zoom telephoto camera captures distant details with clarity, perfect for reading license plates from afar.
IMX678 & IMX675 & IMX662 Sensors - Less Noise, Less Motion Blur
A229 Pro Tele features three Sony STARVIS 2 image sensors, for all cameras. The sensors, namely the IMX678, IMX675 and IMX662, 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
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.
Rear Details, Clearly Under Control
The rear camera records in 1080P resolution with Sony STARVIS 2 1/2.8'' 2MP image sensor. The sensor features a wider dynamic range than the STARVIS pixel of the same size, capturing exceptionally clear and sharp videos during daytime and nighttime recording.
3-Channel HDR
A229 Pro Tele is outstanding in a wide range of lighting conditions, by virtue of Sony STARVIS 2 tech. 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.
Ultra Fast 5GHz Wi-Fi
An upgraded 5GHz Wi-Fi connection module is built into A229 Pro Tele to provide much faster Wi-Fi data transfer, ensuring smooth video previewing, downloading and sharing.
USB 2.0 Port
The dashcam supports seamless connectivity to your smartphone via a USB2.0 Type-C to Type-C data cable, enabling superfast downloads of photos and videos. Specifically, the download speed is up to 20MB/s on iPhone 16. This direct connection also facilitates effortless firmware updates, ensuring access to the latest features and optimal performance.
Smart Voice Control & Notification
A229 Pro Tele comes with an advanced voice control feature, which allows you to start recording, take photos, and turn on/off WiFi with simple spoken commands in multiple languages (English/Chinese/Russian/Japanese). It can also clearly notify you of settings changes or memory card errors, keeping you fully focused on the road.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What SD card do I need for this dash cam?
A: Use a high-endurance microSD card designed for continuous recording. Standard cards wear out quickly in dash cams. CEN stocks suitable high-endurance cards, and the maximum supported capacity is listed in the Specification tab.
Q: Does this dash cam record while the car is parked?
A: Parking mode is listed in the Specification tab. Where supported, it requires constant power from either a hardwire kit or a dedicated dash cam battery pack, both of which CEN stocks.
Q: Do I need to hardwire the dash cam?
A: Not necessarily. All dash cams work from the 12V socket for drive recording. Hardwiring hides the cabling and enables parking mode, and CEN offers professional hardwire installation from our Nottingham premises.
Q: Will the footage be accepted by my insurer or the police?
A: Dash cam footage is widely used in insurance claims and can be submitted to most UK police forces through their online portals. Recording quality matters, so check the resolution in the Specification tab.
Q: Front only or front and rear - which should I choose?
A: A front camera covers the most common claim scenarios. A two-channel system adds rear coverage for rear-end collisions and tailgating evidence, which is where many disputed claims arise. Three-channel systems add an interior view, suited to taxi and fleet use.
