Viofo A329 1CH vs Nextbase 622GW
Both cameras resolve about the same amount of detail on the road ahead, around 27.4 pixels per degree, so the decision comes down to everything else. They differ on the part most likely to end a dash cam's life in a hot climate: the Viofo A329 1CH uses a supercapacitor, the Nextbase 622GW a li-ion battery. Parked, the Viofo A329 1CH manages buffered recording and the Nextbase 622GW time-lapse / motion.

The practical difference
City driving where the decisive detail is a car crossing in front of you, not one you are following. By contrast, the Nextbase 622GW: someone who wants the camera off the windshield in seconds and values the safety features as much as the footage.
On heat, the Viofo A329 1CH is a supercapacitor camera rated -4°F to 149°F, and the Nextbase 622GW is a li-ion battery camera with no published temperature range.
