WYZE Cam v4, 2.5K QHD WiFi Indoor/Outdoor Smart Home Security Camera, Pet/Baby Monitor, Motion Activated Spotlight/Siren, Color Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, Works with Alexa & Google

Wyzecams Are The Best Bang For The Buck! Awesome value, nice upgrade for my v3’s!Purchased to replace a v3 that stopped working. Noticeably better resolution and color quality. Also lot more options available in the app to tailor the camera response.Bluetooth setup for v4 from app is much more convenient and reliable vs QR code for v3. Sometimes had to try install multiple times on the v3.I have a couple in difficult to reach locations. I know that they will require a reset sometime in the future and it will be a snap.Was a simple plug and play replacement, all the mounting and cabling remained. Awaiting nightfall to see how the new color night vision and higher resolution fares.Ordered yesterday 6/10 late, got notice for Next Day Prime delivery and true to form was in my hands today 6/11.

Have bought a number of these and really like the quality and ease of connection. Do not need a paid subscription to use, but if you do it is affordable and does add valuable features. Can share camera view with others. Night vision is excellent and day is great too. Easy to adjust with cell app from anywhere in the world. Can record locally to xd card, which can be viewed remotely. Like being able to share the camera with others. One of these is used to check on mother in law to make sure she has someone confirming she is doing ok watering her plants in the yard (shared with family and her so everyone can see her yard and as she does her gardening). Feel safer being able to confirm she is ok without having to run over there every day.Note, only short clips available online. If you want full playback also buy xd card.

Main thing, these are good quality cameras. Very small and compact, easily blends into its surroundings and not easy to pick out as a security cam. Picture quality is outstanding and feature set is unbelievable. So for what it's made for, it's a great get for the price.The description is a bit misleading though. Read through the specs and features and it sounds like you're getting all these features out of the box....INCORRECT. You get those features if you pay for a monthly cloud subscription. That is all well and good, but that should be in the descriptive copy, easy to find before purchase.Now, other negative reviews say that you can't record activity without paying....that is not true. You can if you use a micro SD card. Finding the recorded clips isn't straightforward though.When you get notified of movement and open the app, it shows the live view at top and a cascading list of alerts below. Tapping those events pulls up a still frame from the alert period and tapping the play button below that prompts you to subscribe. HOWEVER, you can back up to the main screen, tap the SD shortcut and get a list clips that correspond to those alert times and then play back the recorded video. That allows you very basic security features without subscribing.One big issue there is that there is a 5 minute cooldown period between alerts. Meaning if there is an alert at 10:00, the camera records 30 seconds or so of video, then it won’t alert again until 10:05 regardless of what happens in front of the camera. On the surface, I get that limitation, however I can also see where it could bite you…..a bird flies in front of the camera and alerts at 10:00, then some jackleg walks up and kicks your door down and steals your stuff at 10:02. Guess you’re out of luck.One other bit of info that isn’t given – this camera is billed as indoor/outdoor, which leads me to believe I can buy one, take it out of the box and mount it on the side of my house. Seems straightforward, but no…it comes with a cheap, cell phone type charge cable and wall plug and the first page of instructions says ‘for outdoor use you need xxxx outdoor power supply’….which of course is $20. So your $30 camera turns into a $50 camera if you want to use it outdoors. That’s fine, but say that in the description.I’ll keep these and use them….will just keep big SD cards in them so I can actually play back clips without paying extra.The app seems pretty feature rich (if you pay) and works well. No problems so far. One feature you do have access to is setting notifications and how sensitive the alert features are for movement and sound, so that’s a good thing.So for very basic security cameras, these work fine. Also, if you’re OK paying per month for features they’re very good. Otherwise you might keep looking.
