The lights are very bright and the camera is incredibly clear. The only problem is it alerts to everything. Every insect flying even with the sensitivity setting at a 1 it still alerts to every insect.
Good overall, however, the detection algorithm is not accurate. During night time, it detects flies and other insects as person or vehicle. Also, the boundary does not seem to work. This sets off unnecessary notifications.
Picture gets very grainy once you zoom in. Was hoping the 2k resolution would help. Pretty sure this camera will still not have the clarity for a clear license plate picture, unless its literally 10 feet away. Nice field of view though. The app has too much marketing for the CAM + Subscription.
Installed along with two V3 pros after deep diving into the rabbit hole, researching everything available on the market and can say that I’m very happy with Wyze! Resolution was a big deciding factor for me and these don’t disappoint. Onboard AI was the second selling point and while Wyze does a really good job identifying what’s happening in front of the camera it’s not perfect and I get a lot of false notifications due to things like waving flags and shadows but I’m chalking it up to the state of AI technology in general and not the company. Looking forward to it getting better in the future as AI comes of age. Great cameras at a great price! Keep it up guys!
Stopped working after 2 weeks!!! The Floodlight Pro was installed correctly, including caulking it. It is installed under the awning of the roof; so it is not in direct weather when it rains, etc. Now the lights only come on for a second when adjusting the ambient brightness and go off again. Ironically, I got an email asking me to review the floodlight right after it stopped working. Otherwise I probably would have given it 4 stars because I would have suggested that Wyze had included the USB port for an additional camera, like with the standard floodlight. By the way, I also have a standard floodlight in my back yard that gets more direct weather and it and the additional cam are working fine. I also would have suggested adding a zoom feature to the camera as it has an extremely wide view that is great but I don't need as much of it. Also, the bottom of the view,, which cannot be raised more, shows part of the roof of my bay window and the cam seems to focus more on that because my driveway, that should be the focus of the cam, is seriously darker than it should be. I will submit 2 photos. One shows what the cam was focusing on when it worked and one that shows the present with only light from my porch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
