Show's the Wyze cam with no recorded sound. Shows the app a few mins later with all the sound features off. No wonder it didn't record with sound. I haven't had any issues with my Wyze cams and sound.
Really like you did a series of summaries, a lot of reviews done they rattle off a bunch of specs that I don't care or understand. I appreciate your summarizing great work.
I've seen quite a few videos already of most of these cameras and the reolink seems to be the winner in majority of them. I'm still looking though, lol.
Agree 100% about Ring's (or any other of these companies) need to keep charging you perpetually for features. I would never support a camera maker with no option for local storage.
Before this video, I was generally biased against the expensiveness of RING and on board with WYZE However, I might decide to go with ARGUS after that detailed review. Thanks!
Wow I really don’t know anything about surveillance cameras but after your very in depth and informative video I now know what to look for 👏🏾👏🏾 thank you 🙏🏽
A year late but my thought is a wireless security camera is an invitation to unwelcome “visitors”. They are easily compromised. Never place one in a “private” area and be aware they can detect audio from far away. Personally i have nothing to “hide” but can’t tolerate how some utube videos only stress the happy, happy, joy or wireless products. He did mention that a wired camera system is better but didn’t drive the point home.
All the ring devices suck they almost always have choppy audio streaming...i love my Argus 2 and pro with 1 i cover my full back yard and the other one i cover my full front yard.... even tho my back yard is far from my room on the shed i bought a long distance router and it connects and does everything perfect from way way far on my back yard shed area. And never have to worry about battery or wires with the solar panel on both.
Good review but you failed to mention that the reolink (nor any of the the others support 24/7 recording, unlike the Wyze if you add a microSD card to it it will.
I have used Yi Home cameras in and outside of my home. The ones I have outdoors are protected from the weather but they still work even in the coldest of weather. Video isnt perfect, but they pick up everything.
U can tighten the wyze base. Super easy. Fixes that issue. See that screw on the side...? Or wait maybe that just fixes the base falling and not the rotation
Ya. I returned all Ring cameras I bought and went with Wyze and Reolink. Still using ring doorbell and what I did is I installed Wyze camera near the ring doorbell so that it can save the clips that Ring doorbell won't without paying
Lol. I have the ring security system too. Base station, contact sensors, keypad and a doorbell too. Plan is to integrate ring cameras as we go but after discovering wyze, its bs to invest with expensive ring cams. We have alexa so our ring and wyze are integrated as one. Saved a lot of money.
@@cyberbud I recently bought a house and am waiting on my Eufy doorbell, security cameras, and smart lock in the mail as we speak! Is that the only Eufy product you have right now? What's your overall opinion on it? Eufy seemed like the best overall company to me when considering price, quality, and performance. Wyze I think is really good at bottom dollar market disruption though.
@@nijierzarnowski8888 right now I see 129.99. But you do know prices can change every 5 minutes right? I added some stuff two weeks ago and the prices are on caffeine they wont stay in place. I blame COVID 🤣
@@Sur5_lb988 I've been using my wise cam V1 or potentially the second version that came out 2 or 3 years ago now and it has been working flawlessly since day one And haven't even touched it in 3 yearsExcept for the time when I had to unplug it while we were Replacing an outlet and painting. Afterwards I simply plugged it back in and close the app and open it again and it reconnected without any issues. The great part is that it is so quick to set up whenever I am going on holiday or want to move it around as I have 12 take with me while staying at hotels so that I can keep track of my airbnb or hotel while I am not in the unit it is great. I simply plug it in set it up takes
I have both Wyze and Riolink. the Wyze are great on AC power but the new outdoor model uses batteries that must be recharged every couple of months. The two RioLink I have are the Argus 2 model with a small solar panel. No AC to run, no batteries to charge. They just work. The new outdoor Wyze also requires a base station while the Argus 2 does not.
I have a wyze cam v2 for inside my house looking out through a window but wyze has lost the person detection now its useless to me do any other cameras do the same?
In the beginning when they first release this wyze cam is good but not anymore i use to control my cam without hesitation or problems now they controlling it. they want you to get the monthly subscription all i need is to record and a security for my home not to spend monthly payment. I even review this product
I've had the Argus 2 for about 2 years. Great quality, field of view, battery life and specially night vision. I can't stand how long it takes to load the video when there is movement. I have 3 cameras and it gets pretty annoying. Internet has been upgraded 3 times. Sometimes it loads app video live instantly and other times you wait forever. I'm pretty annoyed with them by now.
Im looking for something simple that I can record in my trailer all night and then watch the footage or I guess browse lol. Maybe the ring indoor cam? idk That Reolink seems to have the best night vision and sound compared to the others.
Yi has been falling short on their after sales service it seems from the complains in FB and no RTSP. It's a pity cos they started out so well with their action cameras and their camera is not bad too.
@@AuthenTech Same. But there was this guy from yi that was very active and then after he left, the Facebook group was just left with people asking questions with no reply lol. I think a couple of them were saying they sent in their stuff for warranty and not only no communication from them, the product wasn't even returned 😱
I hate how you can only set a rectangular detection area on the Yi Home Camera. I get tons of false alarms even with the sensitivity set to low. One of the main reasons I'm looking for something else as it's just not reliable. Software is what makes a camera great, it needs people/car detection and not throw an alert for headlights or heavy winds... The Reolink looks interesting, might get a wireless one for my backyard where I don't have any power outlets and a PoE one for the front of my house, they're even cheaper and higher in resolution.
@@Largamelion I have a dink one and it's not that reliable too and the one I have lags big time over the internet so when I'm outside trying to pan my camera on my mobile, the delay can go up to 2 mins! 😂 How about Google Nest?
I have a Yi and it was a decent camera. It’s the one that screws into a light socket. It has local storage and you can pay for a cloud service as well, but I just used an SD card. That is until I needed to delete the videos on the card. Since I don’t pay for the subscription cloud service, I cannot delete the videos in the app, so I removed the SD, and deleted them through my pc. I was forced to reformat the card after placing it back in the camera, and after formatted, no local storage will show up in the app. The entire listing for “storage” just disappeared. Nothing I do will allow me too start using local storage again, and I am definitely not paying a subscription for literally one of the shittiest security cameras I’ve ever seen. So I don’t recommend Yi. AT ALL
Have you or will you make a video covering wired security cameras? I'm one of those who doesn't trust wireless and would love to see a video that indepth on wired security cameras
I am so sorry to say the videos quality your video shows Wyze vs YI is not right even the response time I can say YI is much better and way faster than Wyze, for the night Vision as well YI is much much better quality , so honestly your reviewing is need to re do. thanks
Recently wyze became so buggy, it is impossible to use. Recordings crash cameras, introduced paid subscription... I personally looking for switching away from wyze...
Is there a camera that doesn't use wi-fi to connect? I don't have home internet so I need a camera that can start recording when you plug in the power. Is there a camera like that?
I believe the Wyze can do this. You just need it on WiFi to setup and configure settings, but once disconnected from WiFi I believe it will keep recording to SD per your settings
@@AuthenTech can you use mobile WiFi to setup and configure? I tried using mobile WiFi on another camera but after scanning the barcode it won't connect the camera to my phone.
As one more feature for security cameras that may only be implemented currently via a hack is to ensure hacker-proof privacy of cameras [on a local network]. A phone/desktop still should have access to the cameras as long as they are on the private network. To be clear, above setup should be functional with no internet connection - just local wifi router. Eufy has best idea to store media on sdcard at the base station ( Range? ), but should not require internet access to work.
Will the YI cameras work with no internet access? I understand that I would not be able to monitor it from a remote location but once I have actual access to the camera will I be able to use the SD card footage?
@@rckingmobile don't have any Yi cameras, but would never get a Wyze. Support blows. Cam had some issue and spent two weeks trying to return it. They kept claiming the amount was less than what I paid. Very snotty. They finally refunded the total after too much back and forth. Wyze blows.
@@stephenmabry2866 Thank you! I will try it and let you know if I can get it to work. Thanks again! If you happen to find ones that will work on a LAN without WIFI please let me know.
I have a Ring security system, and on live view the Ring cameras have a digital distortion with a delayed jerky action in the live view only similar to the audio on your Ring, I have no problems with the video on recent recorded events, only live view. I only have this live view problem when viewing on tablets, and some smartphones, I do not have the problem when viewing live over Windows 10 in the desktop computer, and the WiFi connection is excellent on the tablets. To make sure it wasn't a connection problem I unistalled the Ring camera and reinstalled it hard wired ethernet instead of WiFi with no difference. I ordered the WYZE camera and installed their app, and the camera works fine, better color and no digital distortion like the Ring cameras have, and I also did not have the problem with the WYZE camera recording the sound as you did and the sound quality wasn't bad, but I'm, comparing a WYZE 18.95 camera to a Ring stick up poe wired camera that sells for 149.00, that is quite a difference. With all my testing I've come to the conclusion that the Ring cameras are not compatible with some phones or tablets on live view. I have called Ring a number of times, and when my account is shared with the Ring techs some saw the digital delayed distortion, and two others did not, but they were viewing the live feed over Apple Iphones, the others were not, and since I don't have the live view distortion over Windows 10 in the desktop this leads me to believe the problem is the type of device your viewing the live feed on. . I took my tablet over to my neighbors house and signed in on his WiFi which is 1G Google fiber internet, mine is 200 Mbps. and there was no difference in the live view. This all gets a bit complicated, and many of the techs don't have an answer for the problem , and I found it's best to do your own experimenting to find the solution before taking anyone's advise . In my opinion I don't think the WYZE cam can't be beat for the price, someWYZE cameras can be found for less than 15.00. .
just wanted to say you are super cute! Do any of these connect to a chrome book? I am by myself for a long time and would feel better with a security cam upstairs.. I don't have a cell phone
Brilliant review in security cameras, Ben. Has the GoPro 8 froze on you yet? Please make a review when it freezes, thanks once again 👍. My 'Travel Inspiration' channel is growing and thanks to you for all the advices 👍
1 fact : WYze does not supply manuals or instruction as to how to use and its features. Spoke online with support specialist and stated to me, " we're looking into it for future according to what is stated on forums. If your more of a experienced guy like one speaking on video yes it's ok. Consumer a lot of times isn't security camera experienced. The forums page on your account you get is only way aside from trial and error to figure out what , when and how. The camera itself for price as well as subscription yes, is good, but application and manuals thumbs down and 1 star. Nothing for reference manual and just figure it out yourself.
I hate biased reviews. Pricing can say it all. There are times that camers may have an issue like video and sound because of connectivity with the network or the internet slowing down on cable. I have 8 wyze camers 4v2s 4 pans. I have had them over a year. I have 5 outdoors and 3 indoors. They are performing well. Minor issue with SD card going bad on two but that happens with devices that user SD cards as well.
With any of these cameras, if I’m at the shops can i check the cameras on my phone using my data or do you need to be on home wifi along with the camera
Yeah 100% agree: the Ring business model pushing that monthly subscription is what made me cross them off my list. I'm not paying a monthly fee for a camera that I intend to run for ~10 years x 12 months a year = 120 months. Those monthly fees add up. Sorry Ring.
Ring is the worst. .. dear God it's the monthly fee and sharing your footage with the police all over the country to solve crimes without thinking it hurts your privacy.
In enjoy your reviews but for us older adults you talk so FAST like you’re in a race. So putting your review notes or ratings in the notes below would be helpful. Sometimes you talk so fast I”m exhausted after watching even though I do enjoy your reviews. LOL!
Hello, You should be able to click on the 3 dots in the corner of the video and then click playback speed. You can change it to .75 or .50. Hopefully I helped you.

Hey so I’m looking at getting a GoPro hero 7 but I’m not sure if I should get gray or black which one would you recommend?
Definitely black!!! But hopefully you didn't get it yet and you pick up the _Hero 8 Black_ instead.
Discount code is not valid
I HATE Wyze cams. The motion clips only being 14 seconds is bs and it stops saving to the micro sd card at random times when space gets filled up.
Has anyone used the Wyze cameras for outdoor??
Hi
With any of these cameras, if I’m at the shops can i check the cameras on my phone using my data or do you need to be on home wifi along with the camera
Access your wyze cam with your wyze app anywhere as long as you have a decent internet.
You can access Yi Home cameras from anywhere that you have a connection to the internet.
Thanks
Wyze Cam has sound on recordings.
Great review
EZVIZ C1C is the winer. $25
you look like seth green
Not one of you mention the poor cat bn bullied by the coyote...just ur tech toys.. material stuff... figures
Yeah 100% agree: the Ring business model pushing that monthly subscription is what made me cross them off my list. I'm not paying a monthly fee for a camera that I intend to run for ~10 years x 12 months a year = 120 months. Those monthly fees add up. Sorry Ring.
The Wyze is the best for the $.
👍👍

Thanks!
Ring is the worst. .. dear God it's the monthly fee and sharing your footage with the police all over the country to solve crimes without thinking it hurts your privacy.
Wyze camera looks exactly like xiaomi xiaofang camera 1s.
Yes wyze explains how they used that camers basically overhauled it.
The Yi app is KAMI, yearly scrip that auto renews $$$ with no notice & is TERRIBLE TO UNDERSTAND! NOT USER FRIENDLY AT ALL!
😢😢😢😢
In enjoy your reviews but for us older adults you talk so FAST like you’re in a race. So putting your review notes or ratings in the notes below would be helpful. Sometimes you talk so fast I”m exhausted after watching even though I do enjoy your reviews. LOL!
Hello, You should be able to click on the 3 dots in the corner of the video and then click playback speed. You can change it to .75 or .50. Hopefully I helped you.
YI quality looks soo bad
