Wyze has impressed the hell out of me

Not an ad. I started by getting their Pan Camera when we got a dog because I didn't want to pay for a Furbo. It doesn't shoot treats, but it does everything else I needed it to.
Then we saw some Wyze plugs at Home Depot for like $7.99 each. Picked a pair up and the app/scheduling isn't the most intuitive, but it works for an $8 smart plug.
And this morning when I sign into the app, they announce they're releasing a robot vacuum in Jan 2021. Looking at the specs, it has LIDAR mapping, auto recharge, start/stop from the app, and a higher suction than iRobot vacuums. I put in my preorder already and will update when they get delivered, but hot damn they're impressing me for what they do at that price point.

Wyze as a company is pretty legit. Anybody try the headphones yet? We just moved on from their cameras to Eufy PTZ and 2k which blow Wyze out of the water in almost every area.

ive had several issues with their stuff but I cant complain at their prices.
cameras are fine for the most part. I've had to replace one camera, one power supply, and one SD card
door sensors and motion sensor are good to go, though I had to replace a door sensor that just randomly bricked after a year.
scale is good
wyze band is shite. complete and utter shite. do not buy it
ordered the vacuum because there is no lidar vacuum at that price point. got it for $179 too

Once they integrate local recording to NVR without ruining a bunch of the features that makes wyze cams great (but they already said they aren't developing for rtsp anymore), I wont dive into making them my whole home solution yet

FYI, Eufy can RTSP to a NAS and Synology has a desktop application now.

I'll have to look in to that. Hopefully it's implemented better then Wyze

We're not into home surveillance/automation yet Wyze looks like a good company based on their About their company at their website.

Damn, I like that price point for that robot vacuum.

We use their outlet plugs to control our christmas lights outside. It's only been 3 weeks since we put them up and set the schedules, but they have been flawless.

I had a Fitbit scale that cost 100 dollars that sucked.
Bought the 25 dollar Wyze scale and it’s perfect. Might try other products as well.

At the $20 price point and simplicity software they are #1 in my book. Set up a new outdoor cam and at night it works very well.

I was about to buy a few of their outdoor cameras, but I think I'll wait for a month and see about their Wyze cam v3 dropping in Dec.
