Price is much better than google nest but not near as robust or capabilities.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice Thermo. Easy install and clear setup. Haven’t figured out the room sensors yet. But gives temp & status. But the 5’ span is too much. Even new 4’ is too wide. Our last AprilAire digital thermostat was able to do 1degree.
It's almost perfect. Only issue is that it set itself to away a week after we installed it with no issues until then. I just adjusted the away temp to the same as home incase it happens again
I am a huge fan of Wyze however I think the thermostat could be more accurate. It fluctuates 3 degrees either way of the temp I set. I bought two but one furnace was not compatible. I'm not sure why but I would think this is an issue resolvable? It doesn't play well with Alexa. I can use the Alexa app but not verbal commands.
Its a good thermostat, does the job same as other types of "smart thermostats". App was easy to use, setup and get just how I wanted it. Most impressive part was the wiring adapter they had for those of us who don't have a "C" wire. It was nice to see it in the box and I was able to set it up easily without having to run a new wire. If there was one fix, update the app to allow 2-3 degree swing in temps instead of 5. its too wide a range and really is either freezing folks out or burning them up for homes in the south where temperatures fluctuate every day. This wont be any surprise though, it's been all over their forums as the #1 most requested thing for a few years. Don't get your hopes up it's going to be changed.
I love but I wish I had a log file of when someone charges (touches) the setting. My non tech friendly parents keep touching it claiming it doesn't work.
