Wyze Cam v2 1080p Indoor Smart Home Camera

Staff Pick

The second-gen Wyze Cam is everything you loved about the first generation but better. It offers 1080p live streaming and recording with a night vision range of up to 30 feet, and it now tags motion in both live stream and recorded video, detecting and outlining moving objects, people, or animals. This is the best bang for your buck. There is a Cam 3 on the horizon, but this is still our top choice for the time being.
