   Great value with solid features, but battery life varies
   I’ve been using the Wyze Wireless Outdoor/Indoor Battery Security Camera for a few weeks now, and overall, I’m impressed for the price. The 2K video quality is sharp, and I love the color night vision—it really helps identify people and objects clearly after dark. Setting it up was super easy, and I appreciate that it works both indoors and outdoors without needing a base station.The motion detection is pretty accurate thanks to the combination of radar and PIR sensors. It even notifies me about smoke alarms, which is a cool bonus. Two-way audio works fine for quick conversations, though the sound quality isn’t crystal clear.Battery life can be a bit inconsistent depending on how often motion is detected, so I recharge it about every week or so. If you’re a heavy user, be prepared for that. I’m considering adding a solar panel to reduce downtime.The app is straightforward, though sometimes notifications take a little longer than I’d like. If you want cloud storage, you’ll need to subscribe to Cam Plus, but basic functions work well without it.Overall, this camera offers excellent features at a budget-friendly price, making it a great choice for casual home security.

   We have a winner!!
   I have been a WYZE cam customer for a long time. I will say that it’s been a hit/miss with some products by this company.. I hope my review will let you make a more informed choice..So I will keep my review unbiased and try to focus on specific qualities of this cam..First thing, this cam is wireless, it will need to be connected to the internet via WiFi and the WYZE app…This camera comes with a battery that can be charged while inside the camera.. OR you can plug a USB-C cord right into the pack- and it does come with a power cord. This allows you to have a little more flexibility on how to re-charge the battery.I have not had any issues with power with my outside cam due to having my camera receiving power from the Wyze Solar Panel ..the cam fully charged in less than a day and has not been under full power since.My second battery cam that was charged via usb-c, I performed a settings adjusted via WYZE app to reduce the power consumption due to the light on this camera being VERY BRIGHT. That seems the have did the trick- cam has been holding charge for 2 1/2 months and can probably go several more since it is now around 50% battery life.The quality of image from this camera is highly detailed and will definitely capture someone in the middle of darkness, due to the highly sensitive sensors that will trigger the light/recording. Camera can also identify what it is, and will send alerts directly to your device letting you know what triggered the cam.Features I use included with the WYZE cam app are the alerts, and the app offers a paid version of cloud storage to gold up to 2 weeks of event video clips. The free version gives users up to 2 weeks of saved images, but will still allow you to access recorded content as long as you have a memory card installed on the camera. I, personally- like to just record my own clips which the app also allows me to save and share.The barrier/zone selection gives users a way to select an area that will trigger the camera- this comes in handy if cam faces out towards a street with high movement/traffic.This also cam lets you talk to whoever is on the other end of the shot, which makes it easy to communicate with someone knocking at the door. Sound quality is clear and very loud- no static with a great internet connection, in my experience.I enjoy using this camera as a way to monitor deliveries and visitors to my home. The bright flood light also makes it much easier to see while trying to unlock my door at night. I keep a second one in the backward, currently unmounted due to not having decided if I will be getting a second wyze solar panel, yet..The mounting equipment the cam has included was perfect.. I had actually purchase a different set of mounts that I ended up not needing .. the ones that come with the camera are great quality and easily installed.A pro AND con is that the camera is not able to pan, so the direction it faces when installed will be the only direction it will face until you move it.If you want a cam that pans/moves while you are away, this will not work for you..If you are looking for a cam that has a large coverage area and will stay put, this cam will work for you!!For the price, the quality and features of this cam throws the competition out of the water, I recommend this WYZE cam to everyone. I will definitely be buying more here soon.Hope my review helps, happy shopping.

   Save yourself a hassle and a headache
   What at first was a great idea to put some of these cameras up around an old farm house with fiberoptic internet with blazing speeds to see the comings and going and keep track of animals quickly turned into a new part time job.The batteries, although it is very cold outside, have been lasting a day at best and need to be constently recharged. This may have someting to do with setting them to all the max settings, but if that cant be done, why even have the camera with bells and whistles to begin with.There also need to be another software update on Wyze’s end as they constantly, and I mean constantly, disconnet from the network and need to have the camera reset and restarted to regain connectivity. This happens everytime you open the app or look at it on the computer. This may have something to do with the short charge life of the battery. Another big goose egg in my opinion.Now lets talk installation. Although very straight forward to the point you could probably figure it out with needing the instructions, I highly recommend that you use different screws to mount the first piece in the ensamble. The screws included seem to be made of a very soft and inferrior metal where they strip very easily. I have used many screws in my life and i would equate these to dollar store quality. Save yourself the headache of using your own screw. If not fully installed flush, you will have issues putting the rest of the pieces together and wont tighten up for the camera to hold firmly in place.I have ordered solar chargers for all of my Battery Cam Pro’s and will update on how well those help keep a charge on the devices.If you have a power supply near where you would like the camera outside, just get a plug in style and deal with the cord over these.

   The camera works very well, however, one can only use the app on a phone as there is no good app for a pc, unfortunately. Also, the screws to attach the base are poor quality as they strip easily!

   I regret purchasing the Wyze battery camera. The battery life is nowhere near what they advertise—it barely lasts 2 days, even with minimal activity. The motion detection is hit or miss, sometimes failing to capture events entirely. The camera constantly disconnects from Wi-Fi, requiring frequent resets. The app is slow and buggy, making it frustrating to check footage. Worst of all, customer support is unhelpful and slow to respond. Save yourself the headache and invest in a more reliable security camera.

   Camera image quality is great although it does not record automatically even though you have the setting set for motion. Also, battery leaves a lot to be desired! It definitely does not last 6 months! It went down to less than 50% in less than a week! Also, don’t use any “gorilla” type tape to secure it outside!
