Overall
The Wyze Cam is a remarkable offering for just $20. In fact, it's a solid smart camera for $100; the fact you can buy five for that price — or 10 for the cost of a Nest equivalent — is simply staggering.
Installation
Setting up the camera takes no more than five minutes, and is simply a case of creating a Wyze account if you don't already have one, then introducing the camera to your Wi-Fi network and pointing the camera at a QR code displayed by the app.
Features
Video quality is perfectly acceptable. It's 1080p Full HD shot through an F2.0 aperture, and while zooming in does degrade the quality rather quickly, it's still sharp enough to give a good view of what's going on. Bright sunlight can cause the image to wash out a little, but that's to be expected from a camera lacking HDR. That said, even on a beautiful sunny day with bright light next to late-afternoon shadows, the camera gave a good view. Sound quality is also perfectly adequate. The Wyze Cam works with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and IFTTT (If This, Then That). Unless you are locked into an Apple HomeKit ecosystem, this is a fantastic feature set regardless of the $20 price tag.
Usability
The only thing the hardware doesn't offer is weather-proofing, so this is strictly a security camera for indoor use only.
Performance
I really can't fault the performance of the Wyze Cam. Even if it cost four or fives times more, I'd have little to complain about. It records good quality video, works quickly and reliably, has both local and free online video storage, night vision with four infrared sensors, and two-way audio.
Design
Wyze is no different, and as a result of the efforts of its design team the Cam looks like a character from a Pixar movie. The large camera lens and black surround, added to the black infrared night vision sensor and articulating stand, makes me imagine the Cam could play a minor role in Toy Story 5 or a new Wall-E movie. What also impressed me was the packaging, which is clean, compact and has clearly been thought out. Dare I say it, but unboxing Wyze products is almost Apple-esque. Seriously.
Support
Contact Wyze Monday through Saturday through phone support.
Value
The camera feels well-made, even ignoring the fact it costs just $20. Honestly, if the Wyze Cam had a $100 price tag, I doubt anyone unfamiliar with the brand would bat an eyelid.
Warranty
Standard one-year warranty.
