Having had the wyze cameras for a year I can say that while the quality for price is great the incessant nagging to get on a monthly plan has made me box them up and put them in a closet. I wont even use them for my shed. They keep taking away features unless you get a monthly plan, it seems like every update is just a new way to nag you.
I just bought a Dome lite 2 cam, i like the motion tracking it's so quiet, but i tried no motion tracking I've noticed there's a few seconds delay in capturing the person, I tried myself walking then when I reviewed it, I was walking outside my room showing my back, was that supposed to be? Or is it normal? I checked all the setting and I used SD card instead of cloud
CAUTION:. DONT PURCHASE THESE CAMERAS UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE BUGGED CONSTANTLY TO PURCHASE EXPENSIVE SUBSCRIPTIONS, CAMERA IS ALSO PRONE TO SCANNING AND LISTENING IN ON ALL CONVERSATIONS IN WHAT EVER ROOM ITS PLACED IN. WHEN SUBSCRIPTION RUNS OUT THE APP UPDATES MAKES THEM NOT WORK!!!
Didn’t plan on buying a subscription I just got it to check on my dog while I’m at work. I have other cameras that’s with ADT soooo it’s a great camera for me🤷🏽♂️
Could anyone help me please. I’m after an outdoor camera, which plugs into a socket/outlet (called sockets in the uk sorry) which can record 24/7 with no subscription. Or am I asking too much there. Thank you if anyone can help
I was considering Blurams and their doorbell for once but when I saw that banner for promotions it discouraged me from wanting one now kinda like how wyze does it with notifications about new products and to buy their services
do not go with wyze , delayed notifications are 15-20 seconds late , you’ll get cameras that get triggered by everything besides what you want it to, and terrible support . go somewhere better , i’ve only been with wyze for 6 months now and it’s been terrible . plsss do not go with Wyze , you’ll find out the hard way
Hey great video, I got a question. A ring customer support representative told me That almost all the Amazon ring cameras are sold as refurbished even though they say there new, I just wanted ask you if it’s true or not. Thanks
Hi sir which is the better Event Recording settings to the SD card, compared to the Eufy Indoor Camera and Wyze Cam V3? Because Blurams has a 3 to 5 seconds delay before it's record to the SD card and sometimes it have lots of cuts video recording even though the event are still going on.
I know the Eufy and this Blurams doesn't have a pre-recording. Also as to the delay in recording on the Blurams, it you turn ON cloud recording, the 12 second recording will have the start of the initial event compared to the one in the SD card which starts a bit later. Anyways, the Wyze Cam V3 has a pre-recording.
@@LifeHackster Thank you Sir, I also have an Imou products and thier Event Recording settings to the SD Card has amazingly 3-5 seconds advance record to the SD card before the event start, And I think it the same also to the EZVIZ brand. Anyway i hope you will include that matter also to your next reviews. 😊
Yes you can but on the (giant camera that came from the bottom of our last( us drone) the drone/UAV needed a new paint job so they gave the camera to bluram.. now I have it. Thanks Blu ram .. my whole State can see my satellite 📡 on my house.. thanksssss
@@LifeHackster Thanks. The branding ruins the deal. But for "downloading" footage...can you select multiple files to be downloaded in batch, like with Reolink, or do you annoyingly, like with Defender Guard Pro, have to hit "Record" as you playback a single recording?
@@LifeHackster There's got to be a way to remove the branding. E.g. with Defender Guard Pro's app, no such option exists. But software called "SmartPSS" by Dahua can remove the watermark in Defender Guard Pro cameras. (It appears that those cameras are actually Dahua cameras under the hood).
Can you also be doing "see through glass" both day and at night in your camera review. There are some of us that are pointing our cameras through glass window or door because we cannot install them outside.
My mom has one and points it out her window and the quality is still really high. When the window is open, the audio picks up conversations across the street! I just ordered one for a baby monitor, thanks to this review and seeing how well my mom’s works. Thank you for this review 😇
Not a bad camera but the latency issues with the audio and video would be a deal breaker for me. Eufy’s PTZ camera is a much better option for 10 bucks more in my opinion.
I wish more devices were 5ghz. There are so many 2.4ghz devices in my area, that speeds are slow, and I guess because there arent a whole lot of channels to talk on.
I do have videos on my Eero router and which is currently the Ring Alarm Pro with a built in router. Remember though that I don't run Nest cameras which I think is the only brand that you can stream/record 24/7 to the cloud which is the one that will hog up your bandwidth. The rest of the cameras I have like the Ring will only use WIFI when it captures and records motion events to the cloud. Eufy and all other WIFI cameras I have that records locally to a micro SD card will only use WIFI when I access the cameras on my phone. Also, the Eero will eventually and automatically drop any WIFI device that you add in the network if it doesn't use it.
Does the app work with multiple cameras in the house, say one camera in the bedroom and one in the living room? How does the app on your phone work with multiple cameras in the house?
The offensive line was terrible in 2019 2020 in the Goff years . with no time to pass with that play action playbook. from under center???.. the offensive change under Stafford 😮

You can laugh all you want its true i know someone who got arrested @@witcheswarlocksworldwide2244

Didn’t plan on buying a subscription

Mine will be going into my car every night.
Great review as always. I'd love to see a review of the D-Link outdoor cam. It looks like the Nest, but cheaper.
Goated camera for the price💯
Thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching.

I'm not sure about this one but I know that Amazon sells "renewed" stuff which are refurb.
Which 2K indoor camera do you recommend? i dont need pan&tilt. eufy? blurams? another?
Excellent as usual. 💐🌹👍🌷💐

i am unable to move the camera with the joystick thru the app, any solutions?
Do you like this or the wyze pan camera better?
What I do wonder is, especially for indoor cameras, can you block its internet access and still access it locally?
No. It needs WIFI (internet) to be able to access it.
Yes you can but on the (giant camera that came from the bottom of our last( us drone) the drone/UAV needed a new paint job so they gave the camera to bluram.. now I have it. Thanks Blu ram .. my whole State can see my satellite 📡 on my house.. thanksssss
Excelente video bien explicado
Not seeing how I can get them to work with Home Assistant. Thoughts?
Watermark at bottom right. Can be removed?
Downloading multiple videos from the SD card via the app & via browser or pc: Possible? At what speed?
There is no option to turn off Blurams branding in the app. Also you download the footage from the app.
@@LifeHackster Thanks. The branding ruins the deal. But for "downloading" footage...can you select multiple files to be downloaded in batch, like with Reolink, or do you annoyingly, like with Defender Guard Pro, have to hit "Record" as you playback a single recording?

You show how to turn on panoramic view (simple enough, it clearly states this below screen) but how do you turn it off please?
Can you also be doing "see through glass" both day and at night in your camera review. There are some of us that are pointing our cameras through glass window or door because we cannot install them outside.
Great idea and I hope he will add that to his regular testing process! I also point cameras out the window.
I might need to do a separate video comparing different indoor cameras. Thank you for the suggestion.
My mom has one and points it out her window and the quality is still really high. When the window is open, the audio picks up conversations across the street!
I just ordered one for a baby monitor, thanks to this review and seeing how well my mom’s works. Thank you for this review 😇
So if I don't have wifi where I want to use this will it work??
Not a bad camera but the latency issues with the audio and video would be a deal breaker for me. Eufy’s PTZ camera is a much better option for 10 bucks more in my opinion.
Good morning, can I install 2 cameras in the same application?
if yes how
Looks like a pretty good camera. Other than a 128GB SD is there a recommended card?
Not particularly but a faster reading/writing card is a better choice.
Is the SD recordings encrypted?, if the reset button is pushed will it erase the recordings?
It is encrypted and you will get a warning that all recordings (local and cloud) will be deleted when you do a reset.
Hi . Can the camera be placed outside the house?
Is this better than the Eufy dome 2k? I need face recognition!
Hey everyone, do anyone know if I'm travelling abroad would it still work as normal on my phone
I wish more devices were 5ghz. There are so many 2.4ghz devices in my area, that speeds are slow, and I guess because there arent a whole lot of channels to talk on.
True.
I have a TP-Link wifi thats 5G can I connect this camera to it ??
Hackster can you do a review on your modem and Wi-Fi set up ? I’d like to see how many devices you have running and how your internet performs . Thx
I do have videos on my Eero router and which is currently the Ring Alarm Pro with a built in router.

Hi, is this camera live streaming continuous?
Does the app work with multiple cameras in the house, say one camera in the bedroom and one in the living room? How does the app on your phone work with multiple cameras in the house?
Following on this question too
Can more than one account be signed in at the same time?
Can I be somewhere else without the internet and use just my phone to check the Camara if I'm away?
Yes, as long as your phone has data connection.
Are your home lights 5oook daylight? It’s very bright.
Yes. They a 60 watt equivalent.
How to fix the sound problem when i record no sound at all and i cant hear my babies voice

Helpful😀
Can you view the camera video when your across town?
Yes, you can as long as your phone is connected to the internet or WiFi.

Can u review zosi 2k wireless security camera ?
What is the maximum distance it will send notification alerts
once you have a wifi connection from any location then there is no limit
Looks good but a pain to coonect if you have 5G router wasted a lot of time with this
I have a problem with it
I have problems I can not connected
I need help ,what’s the best indoor
I have a dog
I stay alone
I have an 126g card
I was thinking of two inside 2 out
The offensive line was terrible in 2019 2020 in the Goff years . with no time to pass with that play action playbook. from under center???.. the offensive change under Stafford 😮
Why does my camera show upside down?
Just turn on or off the “rotate 180” in the settings
thanks..video feed stops after a few minutes and must click screen to continue ...and again repeat
Thanks for this info. Does live feed also timeout when viewing on a browser? I want to Chromecast it to my TV and leave it streaming 24/7.
I feel like every camera you’ve tested as been sub par
These are good cams but we are suspicious of maker spying on us. They turn on by themselves sometimes.
Not that easy to set up
Ads on the app!
Not support 5g is sucks
Micro usb equals bye bye.
NO EXCEPTIONS.
Heinous invention.
Please help
Do u have a email I can contact you personally I have questions
