I take the time to warn everyone so you don't end up in the same situation as mine. Purchased 6 cams at end of April after reading raved reviews and watching positive videos.... We are now in August and I have 4 cams showing the "Red LED Of Death" (no flashing, factory reset can help this). Those cams are bricked just by simply using them (no power outage or poking around to try to do something fancy or flashing or anything... Simple most basic usage... Filming.)... To make matters worst since I am Canadian Wyze won't honor their warranty. Come to your own conclusion. Personally those 6 cams were my first and last Wyze purchases. Definitely not going to buy anything from that company. 4 cams out 6 is not just a fluke. This is serious Quality Check issues. You have been warned.

Totally agree, for the price these cameras are phenomenal. Been using v2 cams outdoors inside a $10 ip65 case for the last 16 months and they've worked perfectly in both winter and summer. Just ordered a few v3 cams so we'll see. All products are great so far, but only disappointment are the contact sensors; I've had 2 die after just 6 months of use, but they're super cheap anyway.

It's very easy to set up I have 4 of them running in my house 3 on the outside of my house and one inside I like the camp plus program because I can view it on my computer and I really find that is much nicer than watching it on a tiny phone however I feel there's a lot of room yet for improvements such as every morning at 7 o'clock my time Pacific standard Time they seem to kick out which is very annoying at that hour I think it should be later in the day because not everybody gets up at 7 in the morning to reboot so I'm going to be talking with Wyze about this.But overall I am fairly pleased I have 2 other cameras that I bought 1st I won't mention their names but let's put it this way I gave them away so I looking forward to the new improvements that they been talking about thanks for your video have a great day

Finally got my pre order recently after getting lost in USPS Hell. AMAZING $20 Cam and LOADSSSS Better than the v2! Night Vision just kicks ass in this version, color night vision isnt "Bad", definitely works but meh, its ok.. Considering getting the spotlight for the hell of it, but we should be able to use our own USB LED lights :/ Compared to the v2 id say its pretty close to perfect. Also an FYI, the V3 supports up to 128GB SD Cards.

You don’t need to “setup” the siren. You trigger it on/off within the app. When you select the cam to look at, touch the “…” ellipse, and you will see the siren toggle there. If you are looking for an automatic siren, Wyze uses “rules” for automation, and you may be able to automate the siren.

The 12 second clips are stored on the cloud...not the SD card. You can view recordings on the SD card that are at least 1 minute long and longer if motion continues. However, unless you subscribe to their Cam Plus, there will be a 5 minute cool down after a motion event even if you have an SD card.

Let's face it the camera does not need to cool down after a recording, this is just a consumer friendly way to say hey buy the subscription please, we gave you a smoking deal on the camera!
