I would have paid more for a better resolution! This camera has to be the best smart home camera! I bata tested this and I can truly say that I will be buying at least 2 more!
I was wondering if there were beta testers! You guys did a pretty good job keeping it under wraps. Yeah I agree though it’s an amazing camera. I will be buying some as well.
It would definitely pique my interest a bit more if it had higher resolution, that necessarily isn't going to stop me from buying one of the V3s because given a sell price and the upgraded features, it's kind of worth it for me. I mostly use mine to monitor the front door to see who's coming there or knocking on the door. Although I very well could get a Wyze doorbell at this time, I rent and don't own, so I can't really modify things too much. Overall I think they're making great technological improvements so far in a very short period of time. Also, they're selling things at a very reasonable price. For right now they've got my attention.
Yeah, now you have to pay for your 12 second video, which was originally free. You paid if you wanted a longer vid. Now you pay for the 12 second one too. Wyze is loosing fans, I’m one!
I was looking for an outdoor camera to keep an eye on my dogs in the yard when I'm not home. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe Tried a different one that was absolutely terrible, so I got these instead. They work perfectly! With 3 of these cameras I can see every corner of the yard, and they were very easy to set up. The best part is I only get the footage I want to see, not hours of videos of the bird feeder swaying in the breeze.
I pre-ordered one in late November, and it came sometime in early January. Set it up, and was instantly impressed when night came around. The low light function worked flawlessly, and for $20, I consider it a steal. I have an Arlo Pro 2 5-Camera system that I purchased for around $750 when it came out in 2017 or 2018, and instantly, there was a noticeable difference. There is only one drawback that I have encountered so far, and that is the fact that it has direct wiring. For around $110 less for each camera, you have better night vision, better quality, and it doesn't need a base station. If you have a power source readily available, then this is the one for you.
I find for Security footage, 1080p really is plenty. I still use 5MP Reolink's and they are flawless with motion detection, person detection, and the fottage is clear, even at 20 feet distance. I know 4K is nice, but I find, from my own experience, that it doesn't make enough of a difference to warrant paying more for a camera. I prefer having enhanced night vision over 4k
l liked my V2 l purchased in 2022 and still working strong. l purchased the V3 and installed it today. OMG the night vision is exquisitely amazing...so vivid and the night vision is beautifully imagery. Nice review bud!!
I had never heard of these cameras and was blown away by all of the awesome reviews. Picked up two of them with memory cards for less than $100. I hate Ring. This is the way to go!
Love the improved night vision from a distance! My v2 had good night vision for watching a room, but any distance further than a few feet was impossible to see. Amazing they crammed all of this into a $20 camera
@@Eman-bz1te when mine starts working right. I was about finished and my Wyze V3 couldn't read the SD Card anymore of all the footage I recorded for my review.
I’m happy with 1080p, but if they did a 4K cam that has the same abilities as before but enhanced the features and priced at $50 that wouldn’t be to bad. I’d buy it.
@@johnhaerle3957 There's a better way. I'm using a USB 12v step up cable to run mine off an Anker 20Ah power bank. It's not as long lasting as a UPS but the cable is only $3 and power outages here are usually less than an hour or two. A better solution would probably be my old car battery. It hasn't got enough guts to last more than a week in my car but could probably run my router full time for a fortnight 👍 (about 90% of routers are 12v DC.)
You can use a portable power bank. Mount the bank and camera indoors unless you get a water or weatherproof power bank. When it's depleted, charge it, put bank when charged.
You would think 2 years later it would be a thing by now. Also is inflation that bad where this camera brand new was 20 bucks? Bevause I can’t find any cheaper than 30
This cam is a BEAST! It captured a giant spider at 3am that I didn't know existed. It locked in and filmed it until it went to its hideaway. Very clear and at night! Most impressive.
This is the first time I’ve been on your channel. I thought this video was very well produced and very professional in contact. I’ve been looking for the Wyze 3 on various websites & have yet to find it for less than $35.00. Have they gone up from $20-$35 and only 10 months? Where did you find yours for $20?
I just got the pan cam wyze as my first wyze cam. I am impressed by the price and what you get for it. Also brought the flexible base that you can screw in so I installed it on the ceiling of my living room. I was gonna get the outdoor one until I bumped into this video. Def gonna get this wyze cam 3 for the outside security area and garage
Man, I can only hope this means they're also working on getting an upgraded Wyze Cam Pan out sometime in the near future. I have one that monitors my back yard and having the new tech on it would help immensely, especially if they also make it outdoor friendly.
I’ve had a V1 or V2 under the garage eaves pointed at the driveway. Everything was black & white most of the time. Then I saw a big pallet full of Wyze cam V3s in a Home Depot. I put the V3 in the same spot & took the old camera inside. I just looked at the view on my tablet. It is like 2am right now. Wow! I could not believe the night vision and color. It almost looks like daytime.
I don't know where you got yours for $20, they are $35 + here in my area and online. I still appreciate your review the details and for $35 I appreciate all the great features of this device thank you
I would definitely pay $39 for 4K. While the Wyze app runs full screen on an iPad, I’m still perplexed why the app doesn’t run in landscape nor can swipe between cameras. I would think this isn’t a hardware issue.
@@BlaqViper there isnt at the moment. It can only run on Android TV, Fire TV, and the new Chromecast that was just released that runs Google TV (newer version of Android TV). The reason, is it is only an Android App at the moment, which makes it easy to port it to platforms such as Android / Google TV, and it is compatible with Fire TV because it is based on Android TV.
Great video as always! The v3 looks like what the outdoor cam should have been. I would pay a little more if it had a higher resolution, especially if your using for home security.
WOW! The v3 announcement was definitely a surprise for me and definitely checked all the boxes that I wanted (better night vision and water resistant when it rains) as well as keeping the continuous recording and same incredible pricing! And as you said, definitely seems like the outdoor cam is obsolete unless you want it wireless somewhere. Thank you Wyze for being amazing and amazing prices!! Great update and overview video too! Do you know when when you're able to pre-order/buy them from Amazon?
"definitely seems like the outdoor cam is obsolete unless you want it wireless somewhere." Wasn't it battery powered, for locations with no power, always the only reason to get that camera?
The V2 Cam that I have set up in my garage can see the vehicles and the garage door without any light. Everyone's set could be different and thanks for sharing your footage.
It would be very disappointing if they discontinued Wyze Sense, or you have to buy the V2. But I’m hoping that the bridge is inside the V3 camera itself.
According to their website RTSP appears to be in the works for the v3 model. I'd suggest giving it YES to the "Was this article helpful" in the following forum post so they know there is demand for it! support.wyzecam.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051619871-Does-the-v3-support-RTSP-
Support for 5GHz would be a great improvement. 2.4GHz wifi is just too crowded. My V2's fall offline regularly. They also do not like being isolated from the cloud. I wonder how the V3 will fare in these fields?
For those in the market for a camera I highly recommend wyze for price and the fact they offer a SD card. I'm not against the high end units or better brand names. I like wyze because I can buy a 9 cameras for the price of one ring setup (I didn't fact check the price). Now I have 9 different vantage points vs 1 or 2. I reduced the likelihood of a event not getting captured. I rather take those odds with wyze vs ring. To be fair I use to own a ring and have the app on my phone. The amount of people complaining about community incidents without footage makes me concerned. If I could have 15 cameras outside I would but I don't have 15 power ports.
Why would they release the outdoor camera still? I bought an outdoor camera with the base station and now I feel like it's useless. If they come out with a battery powered version of the v3, it's a total game changer
Yep, need it. Got to have it. Is there a power cable splitter that you would recommend? I'm going to mount two cameras in nearly the same spot pointing two different locations. I would love to only have one cable running to them if possible
I am curious to. I need to do the same. Did you figure it out snd if do can you share? You could piggy back V2 cameras as it had a plugin in the back thst allowed it. I think they removed it from these V3's.
Yes, I would be willing to pay more for a higher resolution and even a wider view. Face recognition would be a great bonus. Thanks for your great review!

I LOVE wyze and their products..truly an amazing consumer value driven group of individuals.. To answer your question.. I would pay more for a wyze cam v3,4k camera.. but I dont want it to be the only product. I think $20 dollar high quality 1080p feature packed cameras are definitely useful and that most people have needs/uses for these cameras.. BUT I also would like to be able to purchase high fidelity /resolution cameras with the same exact build quality / features, just with a higher resolution .. it just depends on how much they would have to charge for the upgrade.. if it was say.. $40 bucks for 4k.. I would definitely purchase a couple to add to my others.. However if it was idk.. around $70-$100 for a 4k camera.. then I might be less happy to throw them my debit card.. I would assume that is why they do not already have a higher resolution solution product on the market.. Because of their desire to provide this much value and keep prices so low.. maybe they are unable to design, manufacture, and sell a 4k product at a low enough price to align with their consumer/value driven business morals.. or maybe it would cause them an overall loss in profit and would not be worth it.. let alone be sustainable for them to continue to produce.. So I guess it just depends on how cheap they could sell it for.
Has the connection range (antenna) improved over the V2? I really hope a "pan cam" version is just around the corner. The night vision and overall image quality improvements seem worth replacing one or two of my V2's.
Might be possible when/if we see a FW upgrade/add-on similar to the V2’s RTSP FW upgrade. For an immediate solution try the V2 with a RTSP FW upgrade from Wyze’s site loaded via the micro SD card. One can only hope they do the same for the V3.
If it's like my V2, only the initial set-up (and firmware upgrades) needs internet. After that, just give it a micro SD card and power and it will record to the card. Makes a great dash-cam.
Higher resolution would be nice but would it be needed? If it does so good at 1080P do you need a 2160 option?. A wyze pan cam v2 would be nice I’d say
Ok Reid, you’re clearly wrong in this video. You definitely CAN have just bacon for dinner. If you wrap bacon with more bacon, I’m pretty sure you can travel through time.
Honestly I think they need to keep cramming as much as they can into the 19.99 price point, BUT I also think, for people that buy their products and fall in love (like me) they should sell a 'Wyze Alpha series' - or something. Make it like space level tech but undercut everyone else. For example, they could do a 2k or 4k batter powered cam (with one year battery life) and continuous recording for like 75 bucks. If they could find a way to make that profitable (like the v3) then I would surely buy a lot of those too. I look forward to seeing the new things they bring out!
My v2 didn't last a full year.. Wish we could get a cam like this with simple RTSP. Most of my WiFi ONVIF cameras cost close to 5x what the Wyze cam costs.
What about with the V2 Firmware add-on? The one from Wyze’s back end site has worked for using RTSP for me! Wonder if they’ll be backwards compatible or release another SD card FW add-on.
@@ethanalloway5946 The FAQ for the V3 indicates they Might make an RTSP update for the v3.. My v2 which I was using already died. I don't plan on purchasing any more v2s.
v3 looks like a great camera. that night vision is insane! I have about 3 cameras I rarely use now, trying to come up with alternative uses for them. One of my Pans has been relegated to 3d printer backup monitoring duty.
Great review, I preordered mine already and yes I would have paid a little more for better resolution as the crack heads are getting bad in my city for smash and grabs.
@@joeywilbur9182 wyze has them for $25 through the app . they wont be available long..they wher out of stock , waited 4 months to order . ordered 2 of them today
I like the resolution on this one. You honestly don't need much better, and if you have more than one camera I don't need them eating up all my bandwidth.
Shutup and take my money now. I'm not shooting YT videos with it so better resolution past 1080p is not needed, IMO. Where do I stick my Wyze Sense bridge into? I guess I'll still need my v2 cam for that. Thanks for the update.

How long did it take for the Cam Plus to show up in the subscriptions in the app? I ordered the same deal 4 days ago and Cam plus still doesn't show up in my app.
Were you able to get better signal at distance? I noticed the Wyze video stated better WIFI, but I am curious if that relates to real world better range.

How can I get mine for $20
I watched a few reviews on this camera from home automation channels, and this is the best I've seen so far with awesome comparisons, etc! Great job!
I pre-ordered one in late November, and it came sometime in early January. Set it up, and was instantly impressed when night came around.

I’m happy it kept the $20 price! 1080p is fine with me.

I mean it’s a security camera, not a DSLR. The camera quality is good enough

Looks like I’m sending the v2s I just bought back. Great review
I LOVE wyze and their products..truly an amazing consumer value driven group of individuals..
To answer your question.. I would pay more for a wyze cam v3,4k camera.. but I dont want it to be the only product. I think $20 dollar high quality 1080p feature packed cameras are definitely useful and that most people have needs/uses for these cameras.. BUT I also would like to be able to purchase high fidelity /resolution cameras with the same exact build quality / features, just with a higher resolution .. it just depends on how much they would have to charge for the upgrade.. if it was say.. $40 bucks for 4k.. I would definitely purchase a couple to add to my others.. However if it was idk.. around $70-$100 for a 4k camera.. then I might be less happy to throw them my debit card.. I would assume that is why they do not already have a higher resolution solution product on the market.. Because of their desire to provide this much value and keep prices so low.. maybe they are unable to design, manufacture, and sell a 4k product at a low enough price to align with their consumer/value driven business morals.. or maybe it would cause them an overall loss in profit and would not be worth it.. let alone be sustainable for them to continue to produce.. So I guess it just depends on how cheap they could sell it for.
Great video did not even know they had the new version...gonna get one of these for sure, i have 2 version 2's now
The spotlight should help with those low light situations which was also announced but information is limited. Excited about this camera.
Has the connection range (antenna) improved over the V2? I really hope a "pan cam" version is just around the corner. The night vision and overall image quality improvements seem worth replacing one or two of my V2's.
Question: how long does the 32 gb SD card last?
Any way to use this without an internet connection? I need something for a mobile solution
Might be possible when/if we see a FW upgrade/add-on similar to the V2’s RTSP FW upgrade. For an immediate solution try the V2 with a RTSP FW upgrade from Wyze’s site loaded via the micro SD card. One can only hope they do the same for the V3.
@@ethanalloway5946 My V2 continues to work on my local WiFi even when the internet goes down, no RTSP needed.
If it's like my V2, only the initial set-up (and firmware upgrades) needs internet. After that, just give it a micro SD card and power and it will record to the card. Makes a great dash-cam.
Higher resolution would be nice but would it be needed? If it does so good at 1080P do you need a 2160 option?. A wyze pan cam v2 would be nice I’d say
Ok Reid, you’re clearly wrong in this video. You definitely CAN have just bacon for dinner. If you wrap bacon with more bacon, I’m pretty sure you can travel through time.
...dunno...went to an Iranian restaurant... they were all out of bacon... I wonder why....
Honestly I think they need to keep cramming as much as they can into the 19.99 price point, BUT I also think, for people that buy their products and fall in love (like me) they should sell a 'Wyze Alpha series' - or something. Make it like space level tech but undercut everyone else. For example, they could do a 2k or 4k batter powered cam (with one year battery life) and continuous recording for like 75 bucks. If they could find a way to make that profitable (like the v3) then I would surely buy a lot of those too. I look forward to seeing the new things they bring out!
Any word on RTSP streams?
Yup. It’s a no!
That sucks, so no integration to Home Assistant or Blue Iris....
My v2 didn't last a full year.. Wish we could get a cam like this with simple RTSP. Most of my WiFi ONVIF cameras cost close to 5x what the Wyze cam costs.
What about with the V2 Firmware add-on? The one from Wyze’s back end site has worked for using RTSP for me! Wonder if they’ll be backwards compatible or release another SD card FW add-on.
@@ethanalloway5946 The FAQ for the V3 indicates they Might make an RTSP update for the v3.. My v2 which I was using already died. I don't plan on purchasing any more v2s.
This is my new baby cam. So cheap and incredible video quality
Some Ebay a-hole is having a "pre-sale" on this camera for $49.99, lol.
v3 looks like a great camera. that night vision is insane!
I have about 3 cameras I rarely use now, trying to come up with alternative uses for them. One of my Pans has been relegated to 3d printer backup monitoring duty.
HAHAHAHAHAAH I LOLed with the Titanic Reference xD
Does the new cam support RSTP to use with Blue Iris?
Great review, I preordered mine already and yes I would have paid a little more for better resolution as the crack heads are getting bad in my city for smash and grabs.
Great camera and i bought 2 for my outside camera . picture is super at night
So I'm seeing a lot of videos for thos, but no one seems to know when it will be available? 🤷♂️🤦♂️ Nice video btw. Subscribed, liked and commented 👍
Available right now !! Ordered 2 of them !! Hurry !!
@@savagekock I found Amazon has them now, for $30
@@joeywilbur9182 wyze has them for $25 through the app . they wont be available long..they wher out of stock , waited 4 months to order . ordered 2 of them today
@@savagekock Through the Wyze app? Or their website?
@@joeywilbur9182 I ORDERED THROUGH THE APP. ITS FREE , YOUL NEED IT ANYWAYS . I GOT THE PANSCAN A FEW MONTHS AGO.. EXCELLENT PRODUCTS !!
Great review! Caught me by surprise. I’d rather have good 1080 than mediocre 4K.
Not available outside US, sad comment from UAE as I need to install those in newly built house in india
I like the resolution on this one. You honestly don't need much better, and if you have more than one camera I don't need them eating up all my bandwidth.
Shutup and take my money now. I'm not shooting YT videos with it so better resolution past 1080p is not needed, IMO. Where do I stick my Wyze Sense bridge into? I guess I'll still need my v2 cam for that. Thanks for the update.
A standalone Wyze Sense Hub will be launched in the near future.
They mentioned something about adding modules on top of the camera on the launch video. That might have something to do with it
Perfect comparison review and went straight to the point and covered every important feature.
Near...Far....Whenever you Are... 🤣😁
But will it support RTSP? I use that with Blue Iris on my V2 and forego the subscription.
According to their website RTSP appears to be in the works for the v3 model. I'd suggest giving it YES to the "Was this article helpful" in the following forum post so they know there is demand for it! support.wyzecam.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051619871-Does-the-v3-support-RTSP-
@@Ziggytech01 thanks for the response. Without rtsp it's a big no for me.
Is this camera a full 1080p hd?
This is going to be the best their best selling camera yet.
So since this camera isn’t that great. What camera do you use and what you recommend? Thanks
If they'd add SmartThings support, it'd be all over. But I'm stoked for this.
FYI, outdoor adapter is not yet available for pre-order and will cost an additional $10. An indoor USB power adapter comes with the v3.
do they have the pan cam with this new technology.
Cameras can see IR light:) you can also see remote controls. It’s useful to know if you wanna test if their batteries are dead.
I'm glad they still have the $20 camera but I'd like to see something that would compare to the higher end models like the Nest iQ
What about RSTP? That work yet?
Nice review. I pulled the trigger on the current deal Wyze is running. 30 bucks for a Wyze v3 and a year of the cam plus service.
How long did it take for the Cam Plus to show up in the subscriptions in the app? I ordered the same deal 4 days ago and Cam plus still doesn't show up in my app.
Hey, Reed, can I stream from this camera? Like either RTMP, RTSP, or HLS?
Would I be able to see what’s going on through the camera when outside Wi-Fi range?
When does it release?
Interested in seeing the motion detection settings as the outdoor cam's is not intuitive
Didnt say anything about how the power cord is installed. Hard wire? 120v adapter? Usb?
Were you able to get better signal at distance? I noticed the Wyze video stated better WIFI, but I am curious if that relates to real world better range.
Thank you for all the information and for that price you can't go wrong.
