It's a little bit expensive. it does work. It does not have exactly the same controls as the other wired wyze cams, it is more difficult to connect to. I have less faith that it will register movement than I do with the wired cams. But I do like having a camera facing the house.
Like some of the other wyze cams, the wyze rules may or may not work as they should.
I don't think it's as nice as the V2 outdoor that I relocated, but.. I wanted one that I could see on the web. This does that. I did, later, but a 2nd battery but it seems to be holding power on solar. It's a nicer looking camera, just not convinced yet if it's "all that"
I wish your batteries lasted six months like the ad said. Instead, they last six days. I am very disappointed. EVen when adjusting the settings, the cameras still run too much and the battery dies. Boo!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello! If the battery on your Wyze Battery Cam Pro seems to be draining quickly please try the following steps:
-Confirm that your camera’s firmware is up to date and the Wyze app is up to date. -Ensure you’re using the charging cable that came with your Wyze Battery Cam Pro. -Verify that you’re using a 5V 2A power adapter.

Great clarity and easy to setup. Wish there wasn’t a delay for capturing motion. I have a wired camera covering the same area and the Cam Pro is constantly 3 to 4 seconds behind in identifying motion.
Easy set-up, easy to use, great picture quality. I like the idea of a long-life battery that is easy to change without having to take the camera down from it's location.
So far, the camera is performing well. I bought this to replace another model of Wyze camera that was showing sign of humidity getting inside the camera causing malfunctions. Hopefully this one will hold in good working order for a long time.
