Great product

I’ve been a long-time Wyze user — currently running four cameras, a doorbell with wireless chime, a door lock, and a sprinkler controller. The Wyze Cam v4 (2.5K) is my newest addition, and it continues to prove why this brand has become my go-to for smart home security. Setup is quick and painless. From unboxing to being live on the app takes just minutes. One of the biggest reasons I prefer Wyze is that you don’t need a subscription to use its features. I record locally to an SD card, and it automatically overwrites when full — simple and efficient. Some users mention they couldn’t record without a subscription, but I suspect that’s a misunderstanding. I’ve never had that problem. Connectivity has been excellent. The only time we experience issues is when our internet itself is acting up, not the cameras. In the screen recording I attached, you can see our “Front Door” and “Front Yard” cameras. The v4 loads noticeably faster than the older Wyze models, though the older ones still perform well. (The garbage bin in front of the lens? Courtesy of my kids.) We switched from a Lorex system about five years ago, and the difference was night and day — literally. The colour night vision on the Wyze cameras is incredible compared to the old grayscale, washed-out footage from the Lorex units. When I transitioned away from the Lorex setup, we were even able to reuse the existing 24-volt wiring that was already run through the house. I stepped it down to 5 volts, and it powers the Wyze cameras perfectly. That saved a lot of work and extra cabling. While these cameras are IP-rated, I still recommend installing them out of direct weather. Ours are under the soffits and have survived -40°C winters without a hitch. The Wyze app offers plenty of customization options — remove watermarks, rotate the image 180° for upside-down mounting, record sound, set up automations, and more. It’s well worth exploring all the settings. We don’t have much crime where we live, so the cameras mostly capture funny moments — slips, trips, and the occasional driveway disaster. Still, I’ve shared footage with law enforcement before to help confirm false calls, which shows the value of having reliable recordings. Just make sure to keep your firmware up to date. It’s easy to do through the app and ensures stable performance. Rating: 5/5. Wyze continues to impress — great video quality, quick setup, reliable performance, and no subscription needed. A solid choice for anyone who wants affordable smart security that simply works. TL;DR: The Wyze Cam v4 delivers excellent 2.5K video, local SD recording, reliable connectivity, and colour night vision that blows older Lorex cameras out of the water. We’ve been using Wyze for five years now, powering ours off stepped-down 24-volt wiring — no issues, no subscriptions, just dependable performance year-round.

I have been using this cameras for the past 3 years and been adding 3 - 4 cameras every now and then. Now I have 22 cameras plus the door camera, zoom. Will be adding more as time goes by

Llevo ya unos meses usándolas, compré varias, funcionan bien y tienen buena calidad de video y sonido.

AWS障害時はEchoが役に立たないのでIFTTTで操作できる防犯カメラを探していました。 SDカードも対応となるとwyze以外にないと思います。問題なく操作できてます。
