Pros & Cons
Pros
The wyze thermostat works well with google home and the wise app. The app guides you through the wiring instructions and reminds you of changes to the wiring that might be required by the wyze. The bluetooth range on these seems to be pretty good. Int... Read More
It’s programmable and has geolocation so it can turn on and off based on you location. No eco mode but there are a lot of options to simulate an eco mode. I really like the fan cycle feature where you can have just the fan turn on for how many minutes... Read More
Stay tuned. Nothing is complicated. This is vitally important.
Cons
Wyze tech support is non-existent and refuses to replace the faulty thermostat. The device died offline, offline again, and offline again. Wyze doesn't have a comprehensive manual either printed or online.
Wyze thermostat has a weird malfunction where the fan can’t be turned off until you cycle the furnace on and off until it stops. Once offline, the only way to get it to reconnect is to plug/unplug the thermostat or flip the breaker on the ac unit. It'... Read More
The temps diverge as much as 4 or 5 degrees so require manual control - difficult overnight. There is an adjustment to compensate, but that throws off the temp when the thermostat is not actively commanding the ac to operate.
Highlights
Quality
I have an historic home with wallpaper where this goes and had to fudge a little with the back plate to cover previous thermostat cutout.
Update:after having two of them running, there's an issue with the w2 heat.
Only detail is cover plate could be better quality or dark option also to match .
Product install instructions were for those who don't know how to or unsure.
Price
I discovered my panel was mislabeled and it cost me dearly.
And it cost me $1,300 to fix my shorted out control board.
Packaging/appearance
If you have the wyze thermostat get this.
I put one sensor in the den, which doesn't get a lot of sunlight and is often colder than the rest of the house in the summer/winter.
Competitiveness
I have many wyze products and this integrated easily.
I really enjoy using wyze products and this is an exceptional choice!

No hesitation with wyze as the nest was always trying to find its connection and was worthless most of the time
