VIOFO A329S Dash Cam Review: A 4K Companion for the Continental GT Speed

If there’s one thing that stands out after installing the VIOFO A329S in our Bentley Continental GT Speed, it’s just how seamlessly this compact dash cam fits into a premium motoring experience. In a car where design precision and performance are non-negotiable, the A329S slots in like it was engineered with grand tourers in mind.

Perfect Low Profile Fit for a Windscreen

Let’s start with the form factor. The A329S offers a tight, sleek profile that adheres flush to the windscreen. No awkward angles. No dangling mounts. It’s genuinely minimal, and in a Bentley where you don’t want tech clashing with design, this is a serious win. Despite the Continental GT Speed’s blistering performance, the VIOFO mount held its position rock solid, no shakes, no vibrations, just confident stability at all times.

Video Quality: Day and Night Excellence

Of course, any dash cam is only as good as the footage it captures. The A329S doesn’t disappoint. With its Sony STARVIS 2 IMX678 1/1.8” 8MP sensor, the level of clarity is impressive , especially at 4K 60fps, which delivers superb detail without stutter, even at speed. Daytime footage shows crisp edges and vibrant colour grading, while night recording reveals low noise levels and excellent license plate visibility.

Feature-Rich, Without the Gimmicks

The A329S isn’t just a pretty face with a lens. Here are the standout features we found most useful during our testing:

  • Wi-Fi 6 Connectivity: Transferring high-res 4K footage via 5GHz band was impressively fast, a one-minute clip took under 10 seconds. In practice, this removes the typical pain of file extraction.

  • Low Power Impact Detection: Essential for safeguarding a car like the Bentley when parked. The dash cam sleeps quietly and wakes instantly (under 2 seconds) if an impact is detected, storing a one-minute clip. Smart, energy-efficient, and reassuring.

  • Hybrid Parking Recording: Offers flexible modes (time-lapse, low bitrate, or event-triggered) that auto-switch to impact recording. It’s comprehensive protection, whether you’re parked in a city centre or secluded countryside.

  • External SSD Support: A key feature for enthusiasts and fleet users. We used a 64gb Card and never had to worry about capacity.

  • CPL (Circular Polarising Lens): Reflections on the Bentley’s wide windscreen were drastically reduced with the included CPL filter. The difference between using it and not is night and day , literally.

Voice Commands and Smart Alerts

In daily use, the voice alerts and speed camera warnings make driving safer without being intrusive. The ability to lock key footage via the optional Bluetooth Remote (BTR200) is also a nice convenience. GPS overlays, speed data, and voice notifications all worked seamlessly throughout our drives.

The Final Word: Worthy of the Bentley? Absolutely.

With a retail price of £329.99, the VIOFO A329S 1CH 4K 60FPS dash cam isn’t the cheapest on the market, but it might just be the best. It merges cutting-edge tech, reliable performance, and elegant design into one small but powerful package.

For those who care about the finer details, be it in car choice or safety tech , the A329S earns its place. We tested it in a Bentley Continental GT Speed, but it would be just as at home in any car where performance, aesthetics, and smart functionality matter.
