I feel Wyze is part of my family. Since day 1 Wyze helped us to watch during the nights our new born and nowadays we have have +5 cameras because we trust this company. Last week we bought new cameras for our relatives as a gift. Congratulations Wyze team, please keep it up the great work. From Costa Rica 🇨🇷 with love.
About 4 years or so my shed got broken into and a bunch of stuff was stolen, including a lawnmower and bike. Besides the fact that I was upset that I got burgled, I was really wondering how the hell they got a lawnmower and bike over a massive ~10 foot tall fence!! I immediately went searching on the internet to figure out how much home security cameras cost and was blown away by how incredibly expensive they were. But then I found Wyze, and I haven't looked back since. It has been wonderful to buy the iterations of your products throughout the years (starting with the Pan, then v2, v3, outdoor, the home security system, robot vacuum, etc!) and seeing the innovations and company grow. Keep being awesome. Even though I don't /need/ a few more cameras I will go ahead and buy a couple more, to support your wonderful company. I think I'll make a birdhouse and install one of the cameras on there!
I had many WYZE cams over the years, with extra spares to replace whenever a camera choose not to rotate, or suddenly decided to stop working in color mode or become fuzzy due to moisture in the lens. It was easier to replace than to spend time with tech support, time was critical as I travel a lot. It is great to support WYZE and see the company grow. Very good innovation and I love affordable tech. I would love for WYZE to work on a cell phone signal booster for home or cars. I do not want to spend extreme $$$ on "SureCall products" just to get a good cell signal on my phone. I guess time will tell. I am aware the focus is on cameras. Keep up the good work WYZE !! and I look forward to WYZE 2023 products. I will keep spreading the good news and even assist my friends in their setup.
I remember when I found my first Wyze cam, (around Sept 2019) I was shocked at how amazing they were for the price and image quality! Other cameras do not compare or compete. I absolutely love the name OG!! YOU ALL ARE DETERMINED, AND I APPLAUD YOU! Thank you!
Yes they are cheap, but they are also very unreliable. I had a home set up and there was always s problem with them not recording properly in the 4+ years that I had them and the amount of time you will spend trying to fix issues is just not worth it.
My sisters and I have 35 Wyze cams across 6 properties and I monitor all of them. But that’s just the active cams, ive replaced probably 15-20 and have another 10-15 on the shelf as replacements. No exaggeration, I have bought nearly 70 wyze cams. I would NEVER do this unless the base price is very low. (I also have bought dozens of other wyze products). Thank you for changing the game with affordable products.
I have replaced them as well. For two reasons. Upgrade equipment, but mostly poor quality in the beginning whether it was the SD card or the camera original Pan or a V.
I had an extra V3 that I hadn’t installed and was looking for the set-up video. I came across this video and absolutely love it. Thank you for sharing your story. Congratulations on your continued success and for creating a brand focusing more on on users than profit. I’ve been with Wyze since 2018 and have no complaints. Time to upgrade!
I have about 25 wyze cameras (version 2, 3, outdloor, 3pro and all others like scales, doors, etc. Love you guys. I tell my friends and we plan to use it at our non-profit organization to replace our Arlo and Ring. Keep up the good work
Love your products. I totally love this new launch. I have 99% performance between all 30 or so of my Wyze Ecosystem components. I will always be a WYZE FAN!!!
I absolutely love this company. They have every excuse to raise prices. Instead, they are working hard to lower their prices while continuing to be leading innovators. Great work Wyze! Big fan of your projects. Looking forwards to getting my hands on a few of these new cameras soon. I pray that you continue to be blessed and have much continued success!
You guys are awesome. Over the years I've gotten many of my friends and family onto Wyze products and enjoying the tremendous value they bring. Please keep going and true to your roots and vision especially in these challenging times. Best wishes for your continued success.
Yes they are cheap, but they are also very unreliable. I had a home set up and there was always a problem with them not recording properly in the 4+ years that I had them and the amount of time you will spend trying to fix issues is just not worth it.
Camera Plus is not a good idea recently when this product came out the only reason people bought it and know about it was the free cloud service yes they are getting a lot of people but they could have torn it down 2 or one day cloud it was like a spit in everyone's face and not give me people option the future it's a big slap in the face
I just want to thank you guys. About one of the first WYZE Cams for $20 . Ever since, I've recommended WYZE Cams to my friends. I still have the first one and it still works ! Love you Guys thanks from the little man.
I have bought so many products from Wyze and I am very satisfied. This video is so good, I will watch it over and over. I love Wyze products, thank you to everyone at Wyze, you guys are the BEST!!!
We couldn’t imagine, how many hard times they’ve been through. They are heroes! They love Wyze and care about their users because they also knew that users love them too. ❤❤
You guys are awesome for you not to price gouge your customers knowing that other companies are. WYZE CAMERAS are the best by far . I've bought others like Bing, ring, Panasonic, Sony, By far you've made the most affordable slick ass camera types there are .. Hands down I will always be a customer with gratitude. Thank you !!!
Proudly been supporting you guys for years now....such a great story. Originally bought stuff like the v1 PTZ despite having no need for it. Quality was amazing for the price. Wyze is on a different level now tho. Quality is just simply amazing! Love the new PT cam! I'll def pick up the OG and find a use for it.
The products are cheap but they are unreliable and are never working properly. There is always some kind of bug or issue affecting my cameras, every update brings more bugs and issues to fix. These guys should just work on basic stability of their products, its obvious they don't do any testing because they suck!
Have 5 wyze cams currently in use at a couple locations for almost 3 years now. They have been great. Love the product. Will definitely be purchasing again. Time to check out the new OG! Keep up the great work. 👍

“Sometime you just have to stop and smell the roses!!” Well said. I’ve been following this company from the beginning. I actually still have my V1 camera and it’s working great. Continue to do great things Wyze and I’ll continue to support! Ps please make another outdoor solar power camera with the hub build in if possible.
Congrats on 5 years and the new camera. I'm curious if the OG is the same or better sensitivity as the v3 or is it a step back to the v1 or v2 quality. Also, please update the software/firmware for the new v3Pan to work with the light socket.
I got an OG the other day and still waiting for the telephoto one to come in. The OG doesn't seem to be as good quality as the V3. It also has a different layout and a lot of the options are in a different menu. Plus, you can't choose near and far for the IR lights. Nor does it have magnets on the bottom. I haven't compared the wide angle yet with a V3.
Wyze always has had a solid camera. I've only had one Outdoor Cam go bad, which they replaced under warranty. I have a V2 mounted in a small case on the side of my garage for at least 2 years and it keeps working, sometimes in sub-zero temps. The hardware is solid. The software has been another thing entirely. I let my Cam Plus account go because it just wasn't reliable. Wyze cams are good enough to monitor pets when away but not reliable enough to use for security purposes. The Wyze scale has been great for the price. The watch is little more than a cheap child's toy. Wyze was trying to release too many products in a short time and lost focus on what made them initially successful. I'm glad to see that they seem to have realized just that. After watching this video, I'm inclined to give them another chance. I was impressed in 2019. I hope to be again.
I have become a big fan of Wyze. Started with their smart plugs & light bulbs, then the smart outdoor plugs which I have controlling my heated snow walkway mats. I'm using ReoLink security cameras but plan on adding some Wyze indoor & outdoor cameras. When the battery wireless doorbell comes out I will be adding 2 of those also. Keep up the great work Wyze team! Love your products & the app is top notch! 👍👍👍
My goodness I didn’t think I’d cry but I did and Wyze is all I ever use and promote. These folks have never let me down and don’t think they will ever do so.. I L❤ve WYZE CAM✌🏾
You guys are the coolest! I always knew it..this video proves it and so much more. Thank you for sharing your talent and your lives to bring us kool affordable toys. You are appreciated!
Absolutely agree, I loved them at the very beginning and now even more. I've been purchasing so many Wyze products and have yet to get any in operation. But that's how much I believed in them from the beginning and wanted to support them. I need to bite the bullet and ask someone to help me get things set up. >^..^

This video makes me emotional knowing that am a person that doesn’t have much but I’m grateful for what I have I couldn’t afford those big fancy high tech cameras so when I stumbled upon the Wyze cam I was surprised about the price but only to know that this company does not only think about making money but cares about the ones that doesn’t have much that’s very thoughtful of this company keep it Wyze do not give up ✊👍❤
Wyze dudes, was gonna buy a Wyze cam pan v 3 but you guys need to include a LONGER cable than just 6ft!! One of your other cameras has a "pig-tail" which would allow me to connect a longer cable to it. That's what's keeping me from buying one of your cameras....thanks for coming on RUclips 👍
I'm all in on Wyze! I promote Wyze every chance I get. Love your products and love your company! I get to know who the people are behind the product! Keep up the great work Wyze team!
Wyze got the best cam for the price out there. It even beat products with higher price range. The app is simple which make is easy to control the cam. I would not even waste my money on others. I hope they keep this business model. Good job WYZE team.
Year of the camera, yeah!!! Wishlist items: 1. Local recording hub, so that my cameras aren't sucking up my internet bandwidth to record to cloud, but I don't have to rely on slow microSD storage. 2. PoE adapters, so my cameras aren't sucking up my WiFi bandwidth to record to cloud or local hub. 3. Higher-res options.

Thanks for showing this dedication for cameras, I think the first place to start would be to solve Cam showing offline while still connected to network (might be a time sync issue, guessing). The proposed solution on wyze website is physically restart the cam, which in most cases isn't that straight forward because we mount cams in places where we can't reach easily or want to monitor places remotely. The current solution I am using is wyze plug powering cams, thus I am able to restart but it's only possible at some places. Having uninterrupted access is basic functionality.
Is the OG better then the V3(non pro) ? I’m trying to decide if I should consider changing my V3’s for this camera. I do have cam plus so that’s not my concern.
So if I'm to understand correctly, the output for both cameras stacked together will be a total of 5v/1.5a? So now you have the Wyze Cam V3 Pro, the Cam Pan 3, and now this camera stack that won't be supported by your existing Lamp Socket? Can you like, disrupt all the things again and make a 5v/2a Lamp Socket pretty please? It's on the community wish list.
Ive been happy with all the products wyze came out with. The only thing i dislike is how I have to pay for a subscription for the wyze sense security system. I hope In the future they have an option to have a self served alarm system where there is no subscription required.
Why I originally purchased Wyze 1.) Made in USA so I don't have to share my wifi password and home with China. 2.) Cost. Ring, Blink, and Swann were all far more expensive. 3.) Micro SD Card. I don't want to pay Ring monthly cost to store video when MicroSDs are so cheap. So I feel Wyze is the only company not trying to stick it to me with monthly subscription cost. The above 3 reasons are why I'll purchase Wyze again. I'll like Wyze even more if there's a way to stream video saved on my Camera's SD onto my local computer.
I can't find the stack kit for sale on the site. edit: "When will Wyze Cam OG Stack Kit be available? Soon after our Wyze Cam OG and Telephoto 3x launch. Sorry about that. But the stack kit will be available to order within a few weeks of launch. Keep an eye out for updates." Guess I'll wait and see if they offer a bundle.
This video was great. I believe in companies who do it for the "Why".. and not the "what" Im a snob for high quality products. workmanship and features. Im a photographer as well for over 13 years running a company. So i love camera tech. I first had google nest products...but the cost of owning multiple which is something you almost need + paying for having footage to just play back.. was a deal breaker. I was so happy to find wyze... for the price.. How could you NOT say no..man when i tried it.. i was so impressed. Internal storage for playback via sd card? YES PLEASE.. And to see how Wyze has developed over the years to improve and to do their best to maintain lower prices, got me thinking twice before making a smart home device purchase.. and to just see what Wyze has to offer.
I love everything Wyze's team is doing to disrupt the industry, keep up the good work. The 1 product that was launched recently that's disappointing is the Wyze Pan v3, the proprietary L shape cable is not a welcoming feature to have if you love your customer base. I mean, I am somewhat Ok with it but please consider your customers base that install their cam outdoor that needs a significantly longer cable or already have an existing 25 feet cable that they can recycle to use the Pan v3 at the same location .
I really like all my Wyze products. Y'all have done a great job producing excellent products at affordable prices. Thanks, keep up the good work! When is the IPO coming?
While this is currently not in the works, please feel free to please keep an eye out on our newsletter or social media channels for more info should this change.

9:51 pm I have four products, and I love them. I like the accessories too, especially the bendable holder, and I will be purchasing a couple of more especially the outside ones and the new one with the light very impressive company and knowing the team behind it makes it even nicer to purchase from them, I always like the demonstration‘s because they put a lot of humor into it so you’re getting to see the product and being entertained at the same time I look forward to all your new products. Oh and I also love the strip lights I haven’t bought any sockets yet or lightbulbs but they’ll be next.
I’m a Tech savvy Union truck driver in NYC. Tech is my passion, not driving a truck but if I had the chance to work for WYZE, I would do it ASAP! Looks like a fun company to work for.
next cam suggestion for your outdoor cam.... waterproof is good but perhaps an option for a waterproof housing, for the most cases since it is tucked up under my eves weather resistant is good enough, im not mounting it into a pool, fish tank. i dont need a spotlight with it, i have a flashlight on my phone, flashlight in my pocket. your starlight cam quality is awesome could probably get away with fewer leds if any at all, while the current ones are amazing and light up my whole back yard, but i only turn them on on total dark nights. if i want super long range lighting i get a ir illuminator to place near camera or some floodlights, and it also keeps the spiders from building in front of cam. the mic is nice to hear, but i dont really need a speaker. while being able to talk back and forth is cool it isnt necessary to carry on a conversation from 30' up in a tree on my fence line, or from 12' up under the eve on my house, perhaps a optional/detachable speaker. what is the cost of having an interchangeable cam lens? so i could chose my desired strength(0x, 2x, 4x, 8x), angle of view(45, 90, 120, 180). even macro? thermal... i can only dream, but for a decent one it would cost around $250.

So how does the camera in the OG compare to the one in the v3 or v3 Pro? I assume it is at least as good as the v3 but without the higher resolution of the Pro.
You guys are amazing yet down to Earth. That's why I own at least one of every WYZE product made. I will never switch home security brands! Keep up the fantastic work and keep the updates coming.
Been with Wyze since Day 1. Just got the new v3 Pan cams to put outside around my house. The only thing I don't like is that you have to have CamPlus or whatever for the local web browser support (or no RTSP). Make a decent priced thermal or true night vision and I am ALL over that. I'm really surprised Wyze doesn't have a trail cam yet either.

Be great to have a higher end camera that has larger sensors, to increase sharpness, clarity and zoom capability all rolled into one. I certainly wouldn't mind paying more for one. Currently I have 11 Wyze pan cams and LOVE them, they have brought so much peace of mind, not to mention you can't beat the price. Up close images are clear, but I wish they were sharper and could zoom in longer distances with clarity, especially the outdoor mounted cameras at night. Keep up the good work!
Congrats guys love the product and have many cameras, sensors and other fine products. I have both the Ring and Wyze and when i show friends the comparison of quality of pictures your cameras always beat them out. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see what the future has in store for your company.
I’m like you. I have many of the home security products as well. It’s mainly the prices that keep me hanging on to this start up company. I’ve been with them since late 1999. Being honest it’s not all roses. Broken promises on Ai performance. Broken promises on Sd card in the V3 outside. Broken promise on replacement of failed camera ( relocated ) just stopped working after the warranty period. Again, I hope for them to get better. They do listen to the customer and increase functionality of the camera. IR with great vision through glass windows ( I have other brands that don’t do that). The starlight night vision Is a huge plus. I still keep hoping for the Ai on one of my units gets better. I have the v3 installed upside down with Ai high on the peak of the garage maybe that's the issue. I'm keeping the faith ( in God) and still hope after many x 40 calls they will eventually fix my Ai problem on my annual account. Im being totally honest and not “ emotional.” I just want what they say they are providing which is not my experience. I keep hoping. Now the new products. Well. I like what the do in the right setting, and at the price I will buy the OG for close up and download speed which I hope works for me.
I bought Wyze cams with a bit of uncertainty - how could they perform at that price? Well, you schooled me. They've been running for me for 2+ years absolutely as promised. Looking forward to getting the OG and incorporating it into my system.
HI ALL Wyze people! *Thank You.* To Creators: Only your Ability, Efforts & Time could word the growth of accomplishments. *BRAVO!* I'd like to ask, will you please offer your Black Camera models again, or even *Grey?* Is there a way i could color them?
Like Wyze they keep have some new products, I start with Pan1 camera and love it, last year I got couple Pan2, V3, a vacuum, and a lock, everything works great. The V3 camera night video quality is better than Nest doorbell.
I kind of wonder if that zoom lens idea was inspired by users’ posts. I’ve just swapped the lenses myself since the V1, someone in the forums posted about the idea but I’m glad this is now available to the masses that don’t want to take their camera apart plus you get waterproofing, new SW and HW. I hope to see a dash cam with 4G/5G/GPS/direct WiFi, adjustable hot swappable magnetic lenses (converter/ND/polarizing) while keeping the waterproofing, the ability to view the cameras events even if the camera was disconnected and other innovations in the future.
I'm glad to the they are focusing on cameras again . They kept wasting resources on all that other stuff that didn't matter much. Good luck to Wyze in 2023. I have been happy with thier cameras and smart plugs.

Love your products. I totally love this new launch. I have 99% performance between all 30 or so of my Wyze Ecosystem components. I will always be a WYZE FAN!!!
I absolutely love this company. They have every excuse to raise prices. Instead, they are working hard to lower their prices while continuing to be leading innovators. Great work Wyze! Big fan of your projects. Looking forwards to getting my hands on a few of these new cameras soon.
I pray that you continue to be blessed and have much continued success!
I bought & installed this camera last night before watching this video. I’ve never been retroactively on board with supporting a brand. Thank you.
You guys are awesome. Over the years I've gotten many of my friends and family onto Wyze products and enjoying the tremendous value they bring. Please keep going and true to your roots and vision especially in these challenging times. Best wishes for your continued success.
Yes they are cheap, but they are also very unreliable. I had a home set up and there was always a problem with them not recording properly in the 4+ years that I had them and the amount of time you will spend trying to fix issues is just not worth it.
I'm happy to hear that Wyze is focusing on cameras this year. You have great products, and Cam Plus is a great service! Keep up the good work.
Camera Plus is not a good idea recently when this product came out the only reason people bought it and know about it was the free cloud service yes they are getting a lot of people but they could have torn it down 2 or one day cloud it was like a spit in everyone's face and not give me people option the future it's a big slap in the face
I just want to thank you guys. About one of the first WYZE Cams for $20 . Ever since, I've recommended WYZE Cams to my friends. I still have the first one and it still works ! Love you Guys thanks from the little man.
NICE! Those $20 cameras were THA BOMB!
Truly an industry disruptor. Proud to be team Wyze since the v1! Love when the conference room shot went back to Dave on day 1.
I have bought so many products from Wyze and I am very satisfied. This video is so good, I will watch it over and over. I love Wyze products, thank you to everyone at Wyze, you guys are the BEST!!!
We couldn’t imagine, how many hard times they’ve been through. They are heroes! They love Wyze and care about their users because they also knew that users love them too. ❤❤
You guys are awesome for you not to price gouge your customers knowing that other companies are. WYZE CAMERAS are the best by far . I've bought others like Bing, ring, Panasonic, Sony, By far you've made the most affordable slick ass camera types there are .. Hands down I will always be a customer with gratitude. Thank you !!!
Proudly been supporting you guys for years now....such a great story. Originally bought stuff like the v1 PTZ despite having no need for it. Quality was amazing for the price. Wyze is on a different level now tho. Quality is just simply amazing! Love the new PT cam! I'll def pick up the OG and find a use for it.
Your cams are the best, I have 13 of your products covering every angle at my house. Thank you for your commitment to quality and low price!
These cameras are the best out there. Always working to improve unlike other companies.
The products are cheap but they are unreliable and are never working properly. There is always some kind of bug or issue affecting my cameras, every update brings more bugs and issues to fix. These guys should just work on basic stability of their products, its obvious they don't do any testing because they suck!
@Steel Stunners you have your thoughts and experiences, and I have my thoughts and experiences. And that is fine.
Huge THANKS to all for a great product and the best to all of you and your families that go a lot of hours and days without you ❤️
Have 5 wyze cams currently in use at a couple locations for almost 3 years now. They have been great. Love the product. Will definitely be purchasing again. Time to check out the new OG!
Keep up the great work. 👍
I love Wyze cam!!! I’ve bought so many over the years!! The first Wyze cams are 4 years old and going and OUTSIDE!!!!
My one bedroom apt has 9 cameras. I love you guys. Sensors,.motion, almost everything.
Love how you guys brought the American Dream and such into the ending. So personable
Is there a way to become a product tester so I can make videos about each product? I own 6 of the v3 as of now.
Thanks for reaching out! Wyze invites users to become beta testers to help us test app and firmware updates before they are released to all users.
To become a beta tester, follow the instructions here to get more information about Wyze beta testing: support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032458951-Become-a-Beta-Tester 😀
“Sometime you just have to stop and smell the roses!!” Well said. I’ve been following this company from the beginning. I actually still have my V1 camera and it’s working great. Continue to do great things Wyze and I’ll continue to support!
Ps please make another outdoor solar power camera with the hub build in if possible.
Been following Wyze for many years, love this company and your mission! Still have my V2!
I am one of the earliest adopters of Wyze cams. I still have the v1 running along with the v2s and v3s. Looking forward to the 10th anniversary.
Congrats on 5 years and the new camera. I'm curious if the OG is the same or better sensitivity as the v3 or is it a step back to the v1 or v2 quality. Also, please update the software/firmware for the new v3Pan to work with the light socket.
The V3 Pro is also not supported by the current Lamp Socket. They'll need to actually make a new Lamp Socket with an output of 5v/2a.
I got an OG the other day and still waiting for the telephoto one to come in. The OG doesn't seem to be as good quality as the V3. It also has a different layout and a lot of the options are in a different menu. Plus, you can't choose near and far for the IR lights. Nor does it have magnets on the bottom. I haven't compared the wide angle yet with a V3.
Great video as always. Can't wait to check out the Wyze Cam OG.
Wyze is and will continue being one of my favorite tech companies. Congratulations to everyone of you who make it possible.
Wyze always has had a solid camera. I've only had one Outdoor Cam go bad, which they replaced under warranty. I have a V2 mounted in a small case on the side of my garage for at least 2 years and it keeps working, sometimes in sub-zero temps. The hardware is solid. The software has been another thing entirely. I let my Cam Plus account go because it just wasn't reliable. Wyze cams are good enough to monitor pets when away but not reliable enough to use for security purposes. The Wyze scale has been great for the price. The watch is little more than a cheap child's toy. Wyze was trying to release too many products in a short time and lost focus on what made them initially successful. I'm glad to see that they seem to have realized just that. After watching this video, I'm inclined to give them another chance. I was impressed in 2019. I hope to be again.
I have become a big fan of Wyze. Started with their smart plugs & light bulbs, then the smart outdoor plugs which I have controlling my heated snow walkway mats. I'm using ReoLink security cameras but plan on adding some Wyze indoor & outdoor cameras. When the battery wireless doorbell comes out I will be adding 2 of those also. Keep up the great work Wyze team! Love your products & the app is top notch! 👍👍👍
Great video, good to see the backstory to the company. I have Ring, Blink and Wyze cameras and have to say the Wyze ones are the best by far.
My goodness I didn’t think I’d cry but I did and Wyze is all I ever use and promote. These folks have never let me down and don’t think they will ever do so.. I L❤ve WYZE CAM✌🏾
This is so good. Sorry for being rude to your customer support one time. You guys are great. Love the products
Congrats on much deserved success! When I open my Wyze app I now scroll through three pages of every kind of Wyze devices! Love it🤩
Have the v3 for a couple years now, and quite satisfied! Thanks guys!
I just recently bought a bunch of wyze cameras for my RUclips studio. For sure will be ordering some of these
Ordered 2 set of the og plus one of the telephoto options 🤘 upclose 3d print Timelapse’s coming up
Thank you for sharing your journey and your products with us.
You guys are the coolest! I always knew it..this video proves it and so much more. Thank you for sharing your talent and your lives to bring us kool affordable toys. You are appreciated!
Absolutely agree, I loved them at the very beginning and now even more. I've been purchasing so many Wyze products and have yet to get any in operation. But that's how much I believed in them from the beginning and wanted to support them. I need to bite the bullet and ask someone to help me get things set up. >^..^
Hi wyze engineers, a wyzecam pan v3 Pro, with 5 x zoom and a 2k resolution will be a good product in some users.
Thanks so much for your suggestion! We'll make sure to pass this feedback along to our team. Our product team is always looking for ways to improve our current products and to know what our fans would like to see next.
Please feel free to add your voice to the conversation here: forums.wyzecam.com/c/wishlist/l/votes. 🙂
Love the passion of the founders and that is why I'm a customer for life!
This video makes me emotional knowing that am a person that doesn’t have much but I’m grateful for what I have I couldn’t afford those big fancy high tech cameras so when I stumbled upon the Wyze cam I was surprised about the price but only to know that this company does not only think about making money but cares about the ones that doesn’t have much that’s very thoughtful of this company keep it Wyze do not give up ✊👍❤
THERMAL!!! Love ❤️ my Wyze cams .. still use three v1, one v3 and 2 v1 pan cams!
Wyze dudes, was gonna buy a Wyze cam pan v 3 but you guys need to include a LONGER cable than just 6ft!! One of your other cameras has a "pig-tail" which would allow me to connect a longer cable to it. That's what's keeping me from buying one of your cameras....thanks for coming on RUclips 👍
I'm all in on Wyze! I promote Wyze every chance I get. Love your products and love your company! I get to know who the people are behind the product! Keep up the great work Wyze team!
Wyze got the best cam for the price out there. It even beat products with higher price range. The app is simple which make is easy to control the cam. I would not even waste my money on others. I hope they keep this business model. Good job WYZE team.
Just bought two of each and my new Pan hasn’t event arrived yet! Can’t wait for the telephoto
Bruh. You guys ROCK! Can't wait to see what else is coming! 👌🙏
I’m a wyze supporter from the beginning. I have 15 cameras home monitoring and a bunch of plugs. I want a shirt!
Year of the camera, yeah!!! Wishlist items:
1. Local recording hub, so that my cameras aren't sucking up my internet bandwidth to record to cloud, but I don't have to rely on slow microSD storage.
2. PoE adapters, so my cameras aren't sucking up my WiFi bandwidth to record to cloud or local hub.
3. Higher-res options.
Thanks so much for your suggestions! We'll make sure to pass this feedback along to our team. Our product team is always looking for ways to improve our current products and to know what our fans would like to see next.

Thanks for showing this dedication for cameras, I think the first place to start would be to solve Cam showing offline while still connected to network (might be a time sync issue, guessing). The proposed solution on wyze website is physically restart the cam, which in most cases isn't that straight forward because we mount cams in places where we can't reach easily or want to monitor places remotely. The current solution I am using is wyze plug powering cams, thus I am able to restart but it's only possible at some places. Having uninterrupted access is basic functionality.
Is the OG better then the V3(non pro) ? I’m trying to decide if I should consider changing my V3’s for this camera.
I do have cam plus so that’s not my concern.
Sitting here ready to place my Wyze OG order, wiping away tears at the same time.
I love Wyze ❤️. Thanks for making tech assesible for everyone.
So if I'm to understand correctly, the output for both cameras stacked together will be a total of 5v/1.5a? So now you have the Wyze Cam V3 Pro, the Cam Pan 3, and now this camera stack that won't be supported by your existing Lamp Socket?
Can you like, disrupt all the things again and make a 5v/2a Lamp Socket pretty please? It's on the community wish list.
We appreciate your feedback! We'll make sure to pass this along to our team. 🙂
Happy to continue to support your wyze family.
Awesome. Congrags on 5 years!!! Have you ever considered making car dash camera possibly with live streaming video? Just an idea...
I like these guys, I'll continue supporting!
Ive been happy with all the products wyze came out with. The only thing i dislike is how I have to pay for a subscription for the wyze sense security system. I hope In the future they have an option to have a self served alarm system where there is no subscription required.
Why I originally purchased Wyze
1.) Made in USA so I don't have to share my wifi password and home with China.
2.) Cost. Ring, Blink, and Swann were all far more expensive.
3.) Micro SD Card. I don't want to pay Ring monthly cost to store video when MicroSDs are so cheap. So I feel Wyze is the only company not trying to stick it to me with monthly subscription cost.
The above 3 reasons are why I'll purchase Wyze again. I'll like Wyze even more if there's a way to stream video saved on my Camera's SD onto my local computer.
5:41 THERMAL? If it's legal, yes sir!
I like the telephoto but would’ve liked to see a bundle with the Mount and both cameras at launch.
I can't find the stack kit for sale on the site. edit: "When will Wyze Cam OG Stack Kit be available? Soon after our Wyze Cam OG and Telephoto 3x launch. Sorry about that. But the stack kit will be available to order within a few weeks of launch. Keep an eye out for updates." Guess I'll wait and see if they offer a bundle.
agreed, we were disappointed it got delayed and considered really hard delaying the entire launch for it. It will be here soon!
You guys have done an amazing job and market some amazing products for a decent prices. BRAVO WELL DONE TO ALL 3 OF YOU !
This video was great. I believe in companies who do it for the "Why".. and not the "what"
Im a snob for high quality products. workmanship and features. Im a photographer as well for over 13 years running a company. So i love camera tech. I first had google nest products...but the cost of owning multiple which is something you almost need + paying for having footage to just play back.. was a deal breaker. I was so happy to find wyze... for the price.. How could you NOT say no..man when i tried it.. i was so impressed. Internal storage for playback via sd card? YES PLEASE.. And to see how Wyze has developed over the years to improve and to do their best to maintain lower prices, got me thinking twice before making a smart home device purchase.. and to just see what Wyze has to offer.
I love everything Wyze's team is doing to disrupt the industry, keep up the good work.
The 1 product that was launched recently that's disappointing is the Wyze Pan v3, the proprietary L shape cable is not a welcoming feature to have if you love your customer base. I mean, I am somewhat Ok with it but please consider your customers base that install their cam outdoor that needs a significantly longer cable or already have an existing 25 feet cable that they can recycle to use the Pan v3 at the same location .
I really like all my Wyze products. Y'all have done a great job producing excellent products at affordable prices. Thanks, keep up the good work! When is the IPO coming?
While this is currently not in the works, please feel free to please keep an eye out on our newsletter or social media channels for more info should this change.
The products are cheap but they are unreliable and are never working properly. There is always some kind of bug or issue affecting my cameras, every update brings more bugs and issues to fix. These guys should just work on basic stability of their products, its obvious they don't do any testing because they suck!
This really turned me on to this product; seeing the authenticity of the team behind it
Give canada all its discounts too!
Wyze will forever ♾️
Good message. I look forward to these new products.
9:51 pm I have four products, and I love them. I like the accessories too, especially the bendable holder, and I will be purchasing a couple of more especially the outside ones and the new one with the light very impressive company and knowing the team behind it makes it even nicer to purchase from them, I always like the demonstration‘s because they put a lot of humor into it so you’re getting to see the product and being entertained at the same time I look forward to all your new products. Oh and I also love the strip lights I haven’t bought any sockets yet or lightbulbs but they’ll be next.
I’m a Tech savvy Union truck driver in NYC. Tech is my passion, not driving a truck but if I had the chance to work for WYZE, I would do it ASAP! Looks like a fun company to work for.
Congratulations guys!
next cam suggestion for your outdoor cam.... waterproof is good but perhaps an option for a waterproof housing, for the most cases since it is tucked up under my eves weather resistant is good enough, im not mounting it into a pool, fish tank. i dont need a spotlight with it, i have a flashlight on my phone, flashlight in my pocket. your starlight cam quality is awesome could probably get away with fewer leds if any at all, while the current ones are amazing and light up my whole back yard, but i only turn them on on total dark nights. if i want super long range lighting i get a ir illuminator to place near camera or some floodlights, and it also keeps the spiders from building in front of cam. the mic is nice to hear, but i dont really need a speaker. while being able to talk back and forth is cool it isnt necessary to carry on a conversation from 30' up in a tree on my fence line, or from 12' up under the eve on my house, perhaps a optional/detachable speaker. what is the cost of having an interchangeable cam lens? so i could chose my desired strength(0x, 2x, 4x, 8x), angle of view(45, 90, 120, 180). even macro? thermal... i can only dream, but for a decent one it would cost around $250.

So how does the camera in the OG compare to the one in the v3 or v3 Pro? I assume it is at least as good as the v3 but without the higher resolution of the Pro.
From what I can tell, the OG has the same sensor as V3. It's basically the V3 with other upgrades mentioned in the vid and stackability.
While we think all of our cams are awesome, you can check out a comparison chart here!: support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/12137427098395
Great story! Keep it going! I switched out my Reolinks to Wyze v3. The only one that I have yet to switch out is a Pan & Zoom camera.
You guys are amazing yet down to Earth. That's why I own at least one of every WYZE product made. I will never switch home security brands! Keep up the fantastic work and keep the updates coming.
Been with Wyze since Day 1. Just got the new v3 Pan cams to put outside around my house. The only thing I don't like is that you have to have CamPlus or whatever for the local web browser support (or no RTSP). Make a decent priced thermal or true night vision and I am ALL over that. I'm really surprised Wyze doesn't have a trail cam yet either.

We love our Wyze cams. We have 4 cams at 3 properties.
Be great to have a higher end camera that has larger sensors, to increase sharpness, clarity and zoom capability all rolled into one. I certainly wouldn't mind paying more for one. Currently I have 11 Wyze pan cams and LOVE them, they have brought so much peace of mind, not to mention you can't beat the price. Up close images are clear, but I wish they were sharper and could zoom in longer distances with clarity, especially the outdoor mounted cameras at night. Keep up the good work!
Congrats guys love the product and have many cameras, sensors and other fine products. I have both the Ring and Wyze and when i show friends the comparison of quality of pictures your cameras always beat them out. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see what the future has in store for your company.
I’m like you. I have many of the home security products as well. It’s mainly the prices that keep me hanging on to this start up company. I’ve been with them since late 1999. Being honest it’s not all roses. Broken promises on Ai performance. Broken promises on Sd card in the V3 outside. Broken promise on replacement of failed camera ( relocated ) just stopped working after the warranty period. Again, I hope for them to get better. They do listen to the customer and increase functionality of the camera. IR with great vision through glass windows ( I have other brands that don’t do that). The starlight night vision Is a huge plus. I still keep hoping for the Ai on one of my units gets better. I have the v3 installed upside down with Ai high on the peak of the garage maybe that's the issue. I'm keeping the faith ( in God) and still hope after many x 40 calls they will eventually fix my Ai problem on my annual account. Im being totally honest and not “ emotional.” I just want what they say they are providing which is not my experience. I keep hoping. Now the new products. Well. I like what the do in the right setting, and at the price I will buy the OG for close up and download speed which I hope works for me.
Thank you so much for the kind words! We appreciate your support. 😀
@@wyze lately, certain camera are turning on, on there own. What would cause that? Alexa?
@@wyze I'm pleased you like the comment. See my other comment. I need real help and your 800# is not much help at all.
I like to call myself an OG supporter, and are super proud of you guys! I still think your slogan should be "Think Wyze"
Great speech!! You guys are doing amazing work. Thank you for everything.
I bought Wyze cams with a bit of uncertainty - how could they perform at that price? Well, you schooled me. They've been running for me for 2+ years absolutely as promised. Looking forward to getting the OG and incorporating it into my system.
HI ALL Wyze people! *Thank You.*
To Creators: Only your Ability, Efforts & Time could word the growth of accomplishments. *BRAVO!*
I'd like to ask, will you please offer your Black Camera models again, or even *Grey?* Is there a way i could color them?
I have scuffed some of my cameras with sandpaper and painted them. They blend in much better now and are barely visible.
Like Wyze they keep have some new products, I start with Pan1 camera and love it, last year I got couple Pan2, V3, a vacuum, and a lock, everything works great. The V3 camera night video quality is better than Nest doorbell.
I kind of wonder if that zoom lens idea was inspired by users’ posts. I’ve just swapped the lenses myself since the V1, someone in the forums posted about the idea but I’m glad this is now available to the masses that don’t want to take their camera apart plus you get waterproofing, new SW and HW. I hope to see a dash cam with 4G/5G/GPS/direct WiFi, adjustable hot swappable magnetic lenses (converter/ND/polarizing) while keeping the waterproofing, the ability to view the cameras events even if the camera was disconnected and other innovations in the future.
I'm glad to the they are focusing on cameras again . They kept wasting resources on all that other stuff that didn't matter much. Good luck to Wyze in 2023. I have been happy with thier cameras and smart plugs.
since your going back to basics were are those motion sensors you guys used to sell?
