    Thanks for the video! I decided to get the Wyze doorbell v2 since I did not need a battery powered doorbell and the Wyze doorbell v2 is less than half the cost of the pro. I don't believe the pro has any real advantage other than the battery.

      I always run two doorbells. One powered one battery. Right now I have swapped my power to the wyze doorbell v2 and have not looked back. They wyze battery pro I swapped with a eufy battery camera.

    I just bought 2 of these for my front door and back door they are awesome video quality is great I got 90 day subscription cam plus free if you pay manually 1.67 a month is great deal bought cameras off Amazon for 67.00 each they had them on sale do uou think screwing bracket is better than adhesive? I did adhesive first to try my outside is brick so guessing screws will be better lot of info from video thanks

    Are the chimes on the Pro different than the ones on the original doorbell? If so, it'd be nice if you included those like you did in the original doorbell video.

    • @Wanderer001_Reviews
      @Wanderer001_Reviews  Před rokem

      I did not think anyone actually liked that part. All I got was comments about how it was wasting time. That's why I skipped it this time. There are a lot of chimes that the two doorbells share. However, as you might imagine there are those that you can only find on the pro.

  • @dotunmakun
    @dotunmakun Před rokem +1

    Thank you for this review. Has the camera improved in any way since? Perhaps after an update etc? Also is it usable at all without the subscription or is it completely useless? Last question, did you wire this to the mains eventually and what transformer/adapter would you recommend where there isn't any existing doorbell wiring?

    • @Wanderer001_Reviews
      @Wanderer001_Reviews  Před rokem +1

      There have only been a few quality of life style updates for this doorbell. The doorbell is usable without a Wyze subscription, however in my opinion being notified of only motion for a doorbell kind of breaks the reason for getting a doorbell like this. I never did end up wiring this doorbell. The place where I could is too thin to support the size of this doorbell.

    • @dotunmakun
      @dotunmakun Před rokem +1

      @Wanderer001_Reviews Thank you so much for your reply. I purchased the Wyze video doorbell Pro and a transformer/adapter to power it alongside the Wyze lock with keypad. Just thought to go for it since I already invested in quite a collection of Wyze home products anyway. Here's hoping it serves its basic purpose well enough. Thanks for your review anyway. It helped and I'm subscribed to your channel now 🙂

    You did pretty good, but you are incorrect when it comes to using the existing doorbell wiring it does not charge the battery, but will run the doorbell

    • @Wanderer001_Reviews
      @Wanderer001_Reviews  Před rokem

      The video doorbell pro does only charge while using a wired connection via the documentation from Wyze's web site.: Can I use my existing doorbell wiring to power Wyze Video Doorbell Pro?
      Yes, compatible wiring will allow the doorbell to charge while it’s mounted. Having constant external power will allow your doorbell to record an additional 3-6 seconds of pre-roll video before an event, allowing you to see more context for a video clip.

    Hello my friend.
    I bought this 2 weeks ago & today date is 07/23/23 because of the information that you provided.
    Internal Battery that last 6 months.
    I had set it up exactly the way you recommended. Unfortunately, the battery didn't last more than 4 days.
    I recharge it again, but I monitor the screen the way it decreases the battery. It's no way in the world it's 6 months unless I am doing something wrong.
    I need ur response. Please 🙏 respectfully, what's going on?

    • @Wanderer001_Reviews
      @Wanderer001_Reviews  Před rokem

      It is very dependent on how you use the doorbell, but it should last more then 4 days for sure. Are you leaving the video doorbell feed open a lot to watch what is going on or do you use it just for clips? Also did you dial it in to keep track of just close to the door?

    I really am not liking the circle view. My other complaint, is that it is not very consumer friendly to have to have the consumer take it in too charge it, rather then bring a battery out to recharge it. Nothing pro about having to do that, I have the ring, but im looking to switch to wyze. Also sucks that they try and push subscriptions on a device you own, to access your footage.

    • @Wanderer001_Reviews
      @Wanderer001_Reviews  Před 2 lety

      The circle view did bother me at first, but I did get used to it. I think part of needing to bring the doorbell in to charge is to help cut down on the size of the doorbell. I do agree that it is disappointing that Wyze doorbell need a subscription to actually be useful.
