A229 Ultra 3CH dash cam
Three cameras powered by Sony STARVIS 2 technology deliver dual 4K front and rear recording plus a 1080P fisheye cabin camera with a 210° ultra-wide view, giving full vehicle coverage in a single system.
Triple Sony STARVIS 2 sensors — less noise, less motion blur
All three channels use Sony STARVIS 2 sensors, providing a wider dynamic range, improved low-light performance and reduced noise and motion blur for clearer footage from every angle.
4K front and 4K rear
High-resolution 4K recording front and rear captures fine details — including number plates — clearly in both directions, giving strong evidence coverage in the event of an incident.
3-channel HDR
Sony STARVIS 2 combined with HDR balances extreme bright and dark areas across all three channels, keeping number plates and key details readable even at speed or in challenging lighting.
210° ultra-wide cabin camera
The Sony STARVIS 2 IMX662 infrared fisheye cabin camera uses four IR LEDs and a 210° field of view to cover the full cabin interior and side windows in low light, reducing blind spots for families and ride-share drivers.
5GHz Wi-Fi
Dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) is built in, with the 5GHz band delivering faster data transfer for smoother video preview, download and sharing via the Viofo app.
USB 2.0 port
A USB 2.0 data port connects directly to a smartphone for photo and video downloads at up to 20MB/s (iPhone 16) and for straightforward firmware updates.
Smart voice control and notifications
Voice commands in English, Chinese, Russian and Japanese let you start recording, take photos and toggle Wi-Fi hands-free. The camera also announces settings changes and memory card errors to keep you focused on the road. A Viofo HK4 hardwire cable is available separately to enable parking mode.
Precise quad-mode GPS
The built-in quad-mode GPS module supports GPS, BEIDOU, GALILEO and GLONASS satellite systems for accurate, stable positioning. Location, speed and time data are embedded in recordings and viewable in the Viofo app or on a computer. A Viofo 512GB U3 A2 V30 microSD card is available separately for maximum storage capacity.

About the Viofo A229 Ultra 3CH
From our tech experts at CEN
The A229 Ultra 3CH adds an infrared cabin channel to the flagship front and rear pair, giving the best low-light image in the A229 range across all three views.
Who it suits
Taxi, private hire, Uber and driving instructors who work nights and want the clearest possible cabin and road footage. Also a strong choice for fleet vehicles where evidence quality has to stand up to scrutiny after an incident.
Our tech experts advise
Start with a 256GB high-endurance microSD card, or 512GB if you drive full shifts. Add the HK4 hardwire kit for parking mode between jobs. We fit 3-channel systems from £120 at our Beeston workshop. See dash cam installation.

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.
Q: Does the A229 Ultra cabin camera work at night?
A: Yes. The fisheye cabin camera uses a Sony STARVIS 2 IMX662 sensor and four infrared LEDs to record clear interior footage in low light, with a 210° view covering the whole cabin and side windows.
Q: What resolution does the A229 Ultra 3CH record?
A: It records 4K front, 4K rear and 1080P cabin at 30fps. It can also record in 4K 21:9 front and rear with 1080P cabin, or 1080P on all three channels.
Q: What is in the box with the A229 Ultra 3CH?
A: The box contains the front camera with GPS mount, rear camera, fisheye cabin camera, 3.5m car charger, 0.5m data cable, 1m cabin camera cable, 6m rear camera cable, front CPL filter, trim removal tool, static stickers, spare sticky pads, user manual and quick start guide.
