Wyze Cam Pan vs Yi Dome 1080p vs Reolink C1 Pro - Comparing PTZ WiFi Security Cameras

No continuous view on wyse no good yi is better

Wyze is a cheap product, with very little support. DO NOT BUY!! JUNK!!

Hi, thank you! Which model of Wyze cam do you reccomend? What is the one in your video? Also, do you think one would need a SD card for each camera? Like If I bought 3 cameras, could I synch them all in on the same card? Thank you!

Another excellent job. I have just two notes this time, and I am not even sure they could or should be in your purview:
1. I have noticed that there are many variables in camera naming, depending on vendor (even with different sellers in Amazon) and date of release. If you could include some of these alternate names and model numbers, it would be a great help to shoppers.
2. Did you know that almost all security cameras are manufactured by two Chinese (PRC) companies, Hikvision and Dahua? Hikvision alone makes cameras for over 50 different companies. Firmware, cosmetics, and App used are the only differences (and even the Apps are often the same). Knowing this, it may make little difference between "makes" when shopping. If you included the real origin of these when reviewing, it might be quite a revelation!
Oh, on a side note, I re-viewed your video on the Wyze Cam Pan, and in that one, the Motion Detection sent a notice within about 4 seconds, while in this video, it took about 30 seconds. Care to comment?
Again, thank you for your hard work. I recommend your reviews to others as a model of how this kind of work should be done.
[One day later addition:] Hardly anyone reviews the interface security cameras use with a PC. I am sure that I am not the only interested in this feature, and it would be great if you could add it to your videos. Thx!

This is The best review of these cameras I have seen so far. Very nice job comparing the features of them. I have a QUESTION. Do you know which one of the cameras you have used or tested is the quietest when it pans or moves from side to side? The reason I am asking is because I need a camera to see the animals in my attic and any noises keeps them from coming into view. Thank you so much. I look forward to watching more of your revirews.

Does anyone have any Wi-Fi signal distance testing data comparison for these 3 cameras?

Can webcam is
spy

WHICH HAVE WINDOWS DRIVERS FFS!! iM GONNA SLAP THAT PHONE OUT OF YOUR HAND!

Been watching many of your Videos, They are Great I appreciate your work very much some which pushed me in direction of Wyze. I have setup about 7 of them, but recently I am removing them and replacing. Even Wyze has sent me some replacements trying to help. They have Great support. Now leading to my question, I have a terrible time with these guys and how laggy and packet loss and dropping off network.. Constant Logins etc. I have Enterprise Meraki AP's running a dedicated SSID 2.4Ghz network Just for the Wyze cams.. The Wyze cameras are anywhere from 6 feet to maybe 25 feet from the AP. Have you had any issues with how many cameras you can have on Wifi? after about the 3rd one they start dropping off network. I love these Wyze cameras but they are not working out for me.

Such a simple yet informative way of comparison.. double thumps up. I am wanting to compare the MI 360 and Wyze 360..degre

Nice review. Thumbs up was not enough, so..👍👍✌🏽

Merci 👍

Hi, can you do a Mi 360 comparison with reolink E2pro

Reolink no1

Hi recently subscribed to your channel and used your reviews to pick cameras for my home. I went with Wyze. I think for starting out and the innovations Wyze is constantly coming out with they are the best bang for the buck. By the way I use a Wyze motion sensor in my mailbox and the camera is on the back wall of living room. Amazing distance on that little motion sensor. I got the idea from your video on motion sensors in the car. I like how you cover the cameras in the rviews even doing a test for alert notifications.

So I'm reading reviews on Amazon and they say reolink will not auto track movement. I wish I could stay with all reolink products. But which camera will auto track when it detects motion? @lifehackster

AMAZING REVIEW!!
IAM IMPRESSED BY THE C1 PRO

they can use all this technology to build something reliable with high quality, 5GB, with big storage, with Bluetooth, and WIFI, and manual control.

how much storage can you record continuous vid in 1 day?

Hi

Hello! great Review!
Im between the Wyze Cam pam and the Yi Dome 1080p.
on both of them can you review the recordings of the SD within the App?
How many bookmarks can you set on the yi cam when the autocruise is on?
wich one would you recommend me? I cant really decide between those two!

Does wyze cam pan work with a 128GB sd card?

Yeaassh Serr!! Great review

Do wyze cam can function in all country? Like Philippines?

Can i monitor video on smartphone with 4g only with the reolink c1 pro ? Thanks

Great demo, thx for sharing.

The Yi looks like one of those annoying phone support people

You wanna sell me one of them?

Thanks for sharing, man I'm not sure what is happening lately but from door bell cameras, to dash cams, to home security cameras like these no one has put it all together to satisfy what I'm looking for. I don't understand why it's so hard to figure this out with these camera technologies, I guess I should just keep waiting. 2.7K at 30fps with either free cloud or home server backup is the least I'm looking for, I"m tired of everyone wanting to get their grubby little hands into my bank account monthly.

gj, thx..

This is making me think twice about the YI Dome Camera. I have 7 other YI Camera installed in my home. I was thinking about the YI Dome. On the fence about it now. $47 on Amazon with an 8% discount added later at checkout.

First of all, congratulations on the video. I'm from Brazil, I do not speak English, but it was very easy to understand the comparison of the cameras. I was in doubt between this YI Dome and Xiaomi Mijia 1080 (unfortunately does not have the feature of the automatic scan) and your video showed me the YI is not what I thought to be. Won like with praise.

The yI audio sounded the best to me.

I don't like that the Wyze camera says that it's PTZ, but it doesn't ZOOM at all. It simply enlarges the image already on the screen. That's pretty garbage. You can tell it's not zooming by A : watching the camera when you 'zoom'.. or B : have two viewers attached to the camera and let one viewer app ZOOM in -- clearly nothing happens on the second viewer (zoomwise) because the camera doesn't have zoom.

Hi. Can reolink detect sound or only motion?

Hey, thanks for the great comparisons. I have the wyze pan cam. I have noticed that when I walk past the the camera at a "faster" than normal speed, the cam will follow but sometimes it will continue to pan the the direction of the the motion. When I review the recording, I see that it will follow the subject, but sometimes it will continue to record in that direction because it focuses in another object. I have turned off the motion tagging option, but it sometimes still continues to record in the opposite area of the motion (described above). The technician told me to reset the camera, but I found out that this will just erase the WiFi connection info, and not necessarily fix this issue. Has anyone noticed this problem with their wyze cam?

What about WDR? No one got this?

so helpful and through thanks alot

The reolink seems to have the best audio quality of them all. The Wyze sounds so tinny and muffled.

Hmm real link is better in certain areas. Wyze cam I can buy two for the price of one reo link.

Can these all be used outdoors? Which is free recording storage?

I've never ever posted a comment on reviews. But @LifeHackster I appreciate your reviews!! I feel you cover real life scenarios vice in studio scenarios under perfect conditions. You take the time to cover all aspects we consumers look for, your reviews has leaned me towards products I probably would not have otherwise. Keep up the good work!

Are you buying all these cameras for your money ???

I've got two Yi cameras and was about to buy the outdoor one as well. But their app is so extremely horrible: notifications don't come, they all come at once when you open the app, which is useless!
They show adds in the app now as well.
And you can't use Tiny cam with this camera.
So I'm forced to go to another make.
I'm thinking about getting the wyze cam and get a cover (even though it would be under a roof). Because at least wyze cam works with Tiny Cam Pro, which is such a great app to use.

One request can you do a video with the optional app tiny cam monitor? I tried it works pretty good and offers more options. Two good options is that the app is able to alarm on the phone, not just notification, and offer optional cloud storage such as the Amazon drive or drop box. I also have it on firestick and fire tv. It seems it is a fast response with alerts and notification than the wyze app. The wyze cam app is still in the infancy stage in my opinion but does a great job none the less for the price.

Excellent review man. I have issue with ifttt though with the wyze. Worked at first then stopped working looked up trouble shooting and it seems as if people are having the same issue. Other than that the wyze, for the money, is a good choice.

Great review as usual. Keep up the good work. How about advice, or a video, about the Wyze Pan cam inside and panning inside and outside through a window. I'm assuming that one could set a Pancam next to a window and video resolution should be OK through a clean window. I understand that PIR won't work through glass but that's OK. What do you think?

Alfred cell phone cam app has motion detection and it records until the motion goes aways. and free for 480, $5 someting for 720 HD version.
