Conclusion

Wyze cameras are high-quality, able to be used both indoors and outdoors, have less than a 1-second delay, and have a nice picture quality. Plus, the Wyze Cam v3 is one of the least expensive options on the market. See what some of the happy customers had to say about them below.

“I like these little cameras! Setup was a breeze, picture quality is amazing, and the live feed is pretty much actually live (less than a 1 second delay for me, which was the best of all the newer cameras I tested).”

“We have both this and the previous generation of the same cam. We bought the previous generation many years ago and use it to keep an eye on our dog when she is left home alone for prolonged periods of time. We’ve been very happy with it and did not hesitate to try the new version… The night vision has improved dramatically in this new version.”

“The Wyze team is killing it with this one. Their low cost products have always been a good draw. My prior Wyze camera was the pan camera – good price for one that I could make spin around and look up and down. I bought two v3 to get my side yards.”
