Unboxing Experience

The unboxing experience of the Wyze Cam v3 Pro was a simple one, with the camera housed in a small and compact cardboard box.

Inside, I found the camera, a quick start guide, and a mounting kit. The mounting kit was a bit of a surprise, as I had assumed that I’d have to purchase it separately, but it was great to see that Wyze had included it in the box.

The camera itself is small and lightweight, making it easy to install and set up, even if you’re not particularly handy.

Features

The Wyze Cam v3 Pro is packed with features that make it a great choice for anyone who wants a reliable and affordable home security solution.

One of the things that I love about this camera is the fact that it comes with 14-day cloud storage, so I can always go back and look at previous footage if I need to.

The camera also supports local storage, so if you don’t want to use the cloud, you can store your footage directly on a microSD card. The camera supports up to 256GB of cards, which is more than enough for most people.

Video Quality

The video quality of the Wyze Cam v3 Pro is fantastic, with clear and sharp footage that looks great even in low-light conditions.

The Wyze Cam v3 Pro has a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, which results in video footage being exceptionally clean and clear that you can even read the letters on the screen.

Night Vision

I was particularly impressed with the night vision capabilities of the camera, which were far better than I had expected.

Even in low-light environments, the Wyze Cam v3 Pro is able to record video in rich color because of the sophisticated image sensor that it possesses.

Compatibility

One of the standout features of the Wyze Cam V3 Pro is the integration with Alexa and Google Assistant, which makes it easy to control the camera using your voice.

This is great if you’re someone who uses either of these virtual assistants, as it means you can easily check on your home while you’re away without having to pick up your phone.

The integration with these platforms is seamless, and I found it to be a handy feature that I used more often than I thought I would.

Custom Alerts

Another feature that I loved about the Wyze Cam v3 was the ability to set up custom alerts, which let me know if the camera detected motion or sound.

This was particularly useful when I was away from home, as I could receive notifications if there was any activity in my home.

I could also set the camera to record when motion was detected, which was great for capturing footage of any suspicious activity.

The camera employs AI-powered person detection to inform you of any motion or activity in the monitored area, and it can send notifications to your phone.

The Wyze Cam v3 Pro is an excellent camera that offers a lot of features for a very affordable price. Whether you’re looking for a home security solution or just want to keep an eye on your home while you’re away, this camera is definitely worth considering.

Two Way Audio

You will be able to talk to anyone who is in close proximity to the camera thanks to the built-in speaker and microphone that are included with the camera.

This blew my mind since it enables one to speak with other people while being hidden, which not only improves one’s safety but also gives a sense of increased safety for themselves.

Local and Cloud Storage

The Wyze Cam v3 Pro gives you the ability to save your video footage in a variety of ways by providing local storage as well as cloud storage options.

This is a key feature as it allows a large number of recordings to be saved in the camera’s storage which may come in handy in the future for many certain reasons.
