What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The viofo vs1 mini dash cam has a very low-profile design and it makes my dashboard less distracting. The night vision is relatively good, so too the built-in gps module. This dash cam also has gps which is nice as other brands often make you pay for ... Read More
Compact size allows for a more discreet setup. Allows you to place it on high where the rearview mirror is. Once installed, it sits very discreetly on my windshield.
Footage is smooth at 30 fps, compared to dashcams at lower price points that only record at 15 fps or less. Connecting to the camera is very easy, specially with the help of the voice commands. Since the cam wifi turns off after a while, it's easy to ... Read More
It’s still too early to say how good it is until it gets the hot sun treatment and the blistering cold of the winter. The picture quality is superb in daylight, and moderately good in nightlight. The audio from the footage is also quite clear.
All the little tidbits to install and program is a bit of a hurdle at first, but it isn't the end of the world. It's a simple app to use, and the videos download to my phone quickly. The only downside is that there is no screen so all settings have to... Read More
Cons
Video recordings are jerky. It looks like the cpu is underpowered.
Highlights
Quality
It performs flawlessly, images/videos are sharp, vibrant, and clear, and just very easy to set up and use.
Super easy to instal, works great, easy app to install on your phone and the picture and recording perfect.
Comes with easy instructions and video quality is above the average dashcam or at least my last one.
Wifi is turned on after long pressing button ~8 seconds.
Price
The vs1 is great deal at the affordable price point.
+ good price+ good picture quality+ really simply to install incl.

For the price , this cam is t too bad.

Pros:-the viofo vs1 mini dash cam was packed inside a nicely designed box which gave it a premium feeling with an inexpensive price tag.
All the accessories that you need to get your dashcam running are included inside the box.
Although its size, this camera is packed with features too, such as sony starvis2 sensor, voice control and high 1440p resoluti... Read More
Competitiveness
This dash cam also has gps which is nice as other brands often make you pay for an additional gps module.
Compared to previous blackvue dash cams that i've installed the viofo is much easier to install and use.
I wish viofo could release a tiny version of it without the screen like garmin mni 2 but with all the mighty features from vs1.
So i'm a huge viofo fan, i've reviewed half a dozen dashcam brands and viofo always comes out on top.
