VIOFO A119 MINI 2-G GPS is a single‑channel dash camera that records Quad HD video at 2560×1440 and up to 60 fps using a Sony STARVIS 2 IMX675 sensor and an F1.6 lens with a 140° viewing angle. The compact black body includes an LCD screen and supports microSD cards up to 512 GB. Built-in GPS logs location and speed, while dual‑band Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth enable wireless connection and app control. The unit supports continuous loop recording, parking mode, time‑lapse, WDR, motion and shock sensors, and automatic recording.
Advantages
The camera delivers high‑resolution Quad HD footage with a sensitive STARVIS 2 sensor and a bright F1.6 aperture for improved low‑light performance and clear daytime detail. Dual‑band Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth provide reliable wireless connectivity for transferring video and configuring settings via the companion app. Integrated GPS captures route and speed data, while features such as parking mode, motion and shock sensors, WDR, and loop recording help ensure important events are recorded and preserved.
Suitable for
- Recording daily driving and trips in high resolution
- Capturing incidents and evidence with GPS‑timestamped video
- Monitoring parked vehicles using parking mode and motion detection
- Users who need wireless access to recordings via Wi‑Fi and app
When it may not be suitable
This single‑channel recorder captures only the front view; it is not suitable if you need rear or cabin cameras included. It does not contain built‑in storage, so a compatible microSD card (up to 512 GB) is required before use. The compact size limits the physical controls and screen area compared with larger dashcams.

Usage recommendations
For reliable recordings, use a high‑endurance microSD card from a reputable brand, format it in the camera before first use, and mount the camera centrally on the windscreen to maximise the 140° field of view. Enable parking mode and motion detection if you need event recording while the vehicle is unattended, and periodically back up important footage via the Wi‑Fi connection to the companion app or to a computer.
