The iconic five-year-old viral Internet princess Claire Crosby and her
dad Dave Crosby brought
us to the discovery of this tiny video camera. If the names are not familiar
with you, check out one of their viral videos which has been viewed over 37
million here.
Claire’s dad owns the Wyze cam company
and we were so impressed with the video quality that we thought of giving it a
try. It’s currently making a wave in the home security technology amassing more
than 600,000 units sold since it became available online.
So, what’s in the box?
The package was the
tiniest I’ve ever received in the mailbox. In fact, it’s the only package that
we received that fit in the mailbox. Packaging was so efficient that I was
really impressed how the camera, the charger, and the magnet fit in a tiny box.
I downloaded the app before we got the camera so installing took only about
five minutes.
The camera doesn’t work
in 5G wireless connection so you need to make sure that your Wi-Fi has also 2G
capability. I didn’t know this before purchasing so thankfully, we have two
choices for Wi-Fi connectivity.
Considering the price which is
$19.99, the tiny camera takes vivid images. In fact, 1080p full HD. It has live
stream with 8X digital zoom and it also works with Alexa. The enhanced vision
delivers clarity up to 30 feet away. It has also magnetic base that you can
mount it anywhere.

Whenever a motion is
detected, I receive a notification on my app. Its advanced algorithm also
recognizes the sound patterns of smoke alarms and CO monitors. In addition,
there’s a built-in speaker and microphone to listen and talk to. A 360 degree
capability is available in different unit- the Wyze Cam Pan and it might be
worth a try.
With its affordable
price, you can actually have several of them in your house! The picture quality
is so good that I could see my husband eating jalapeno poppers and cheetos at
the middle of the night even though it's pitch dark.
More and more people are going to home security cameras. Makes everyone feel safer and they can control so much with just their phone which makes it easy.
