Research notes
viofo.com global store prices in USD ($349.99 for 2CH at time of check); uk.viofo.com blocked to automated fetch so no £ store URL verified. Manual (UK edition, V26.01.09) used for frame rate, memory, warranty, parking and app. GPS is a quad-mode module in the mount (per landing page/manual). Bluetooth: product page says 'built-in GPS & Bluetooth & Voice Control'; landing page only mentions an optional Bluetooth remote, so the camera's Bluetooth is likely for the remote. Field of view not stated on any official page read. Voice control supported. Wi-Fi 2.4/5GHz.
