purchased as a substitute for the outdoor v2 because they have been out of stock or discontinued for ever. Battery cam pro DOES not come with a way to charge battery other than a cord. You cant use the base stations to charge so thats a problem. A basic wall charger should be included for that price. I do like that it comes in black. So far, the only plus to this camera is that is takes the solar panel. all wyze cameras shoule be compatabile with solar panel
Resolution is good. Connectivity is average and storage for motion is poor. Repeatedly having notifications only to see there is NOTHING in the Events list is super frusterating. Repeated auth issues are also not optimal.
So the camera itself is pretty ok, but the cloud services are quite a bit lacking.
Cameras continually disconnected and threw out error codes. I came across multiple postings online of other people having this problem
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great little camera but be careful when you mount the base. If you run a screw in too far it will warp the plastic base and the mount will not screw on tight enough. At that point you must take it off and use pliers to straighten the base then hand screw it to where you tried the first time. Hopefully this helps someone.
I purchased my first one of these and installed it. I like it a lot. The recordings are sharp and clear. The battery life seems to be as advertised. I just received my second camera and hope to install soon.
