As usual, these cameras setup easily. Very good instructions! Have 8 other WYSE cameras and the setup gets better. These battery operated cameras do not seem to hold the WiFi connection very well at times. I have kept them connected to power and after a short time they disconnect and need reset. Error 16 I think shows! After testing, as long as they are only using the battery pack they do stay connected more consistently. And, it can’t be distancing to WiFi! All use is within 15 to 20 feet to WiFi!
Quality is good but the sensitivity is weak towards the edge of the frame. Also the 30-50 second lag in recording events is annoying and not accurate enough to capture the full event. Solar panel drains quickly and can't handle continuous recording.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Battery Cam Pro is a pleasant upgrade to the prior versions of battery cams. This is a convenient upgrade with immediate improvement in quality and removed/reduced false triggers.
Easy instructions and set-up. The camera and mounting bracket are sturdy. I appreciate the features of the Wyze camera app, especially the battery life. The video feed (both daylight and night) is clear.
Seven in service, eighth on its way. Easy setup. Our only limitation is the wifi range. …imagine a wifi mesh router using the same rechargeable battery system.
My Wyze cameras were VERY easy to setup and install...which was GREAT! Knowing what is going on on my property 24/7 was...and is quite revealing! The only suggestion would be improving the time lag on getting the alarm on my phone and tablet noting man, machine or animal in the viewing areas.
