Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The video quality is so crisp that i can practically count the furballs my cat kicks up during her paw-some performances. It's not just hd; it's hahad – capturing every quirky moment with pixel-perfect precision. The 2k is very nice and provides much ...  Read More

The spotlight is an added source of light which can either scare off trespassers or at least give us a clearer view of who the person is. It gives you a piece of mind that your property is secured and if you pay to have things monitored then you reall...  Read More

The beta zoom feature is great. The picture is great and the app is easy to use. The app is not as good as the nest app, but probably better than the google app as far as ui and ease of use.



Cons

Cameras can't read the barcode from your phone. Wyze support is non existent. Troubleshooting does no good either. This one is the only one that gives me connectivity issues.

The light is mediocre and doesn’t illuminate anything more than 4ft away. The app is not user friendly and toggling between the cameras to find a video you hope may have recorded is a pain the a$$. Basically 20 ft.

The omission of the water-resistant cable is a letdown, considering the higher price tag. It's a pity as they are very good (especially for the price) when they work. There's a reason this brand is cheap. Save your money and get the regular v3.

For me, no. This camera is garbage. This is dumb.

Is it worth the upgrade? As others have noted, the constant nags to upgrade to paid service is completely over-the-top with this camera. Their policy for needing a cloud subscription makes those improvements moot.

Quality


I have ten cameras all wyze and this is by far the best quality hands down


After installed i was impressed with the quality of both daytime and nighttime images, the fact that you can go back and replay...  Read More


Defeated the purpose to purchasing an updated camera as it did the same for the 3rd gen models.


The cameras are very good at detecting motion with its ai feature but i hate that the recording ends like 20 or 30 seconds into...  Read More

Price


For this price i would think there's an area they would be lacking in but thus far i have yet to find anything wrong!


Especially not for the price, heck you can't get most cameras under a certain dollar amount anymore.


Bought it for the price and honestly.


It’s not a high end camera but it’s a clear picture for a cheap price.

Packaging/appearance


The video shows the product being unpacked.

Competitiveness


So i’d say this camera is as good or better than a nest cam as far as picture quality.


The 2k is very nice and provides much more detail and clarity compared to my nest and google cams which are 1080.


The app is not as good as the nest app, but probably better than the google app as far as ui and ease of use.

    I think the only thing im not a fan of is you can only have this camera recognize people as events without paying for their service which kind of sucks if youre buying these cameras say to monitor a pest problem or perhaps monitor a feline colony or something along those lines

    I feel like those options should be standard

    My 2nd gen hd version works with the subscription plan but using a 2k camera they require a more expensive plan
