Full disclosure, I didn't read the dimensions of this before ordering online. It's too tall for my intended location so I returned it. But it seemed fine when I looked at it.

I find the camera to not hold the charge it says ot holds. I have not charge the camera for a month and its about at 50% battery charge. Ill assume ill need to charge every two months and not the described charge time of 6 months plus. This is great for what is does.

As advertised, needed to switch from an Arlo to this as we already had a few of this brand. Would like a little more quality of night time picture, but still ok

I love the fact that it has adhesive tape as an option. It makes it easier for people living in apartments/suites. Only problem I had was figuring out how to change the time. But definitely a love item.

Brand new out of the box and it won't even connect to Wyze Cloud. Customer service is unable to resolve. I've already rebooted my router/modem/phone, disconnected from the Wi-Fi/Forgot the Wi-Fi and rejoined. Rebooted the chime and doorbell multiple times. I even deleted the Wyze app and reinstalled it. This is a brand new device that just arrived today.
Something told me to buy a ring, but I went against my better judgement since I already had a Wyze inside cam (Which, I also faced the same reconnection issues with months ago and it took half a day to finally connect). Just look it up on reddit, I'm not the only one. Go with Ring.

The Wyze Doorbell Pro is definitely a step up from the older wyze doorbell, if you’re debating one or the other, or an upgrade, you should probably go with the Pro version. But that doesn’t mean it’s the best doorbell in it’s class. There’s plenty of good and plenty of bad to say about this doorbell making it a solid “average, just ok” but budget friendly doorbell option.
THE GOOD:
- Battery operated
- no existing doorbell needed
- wide angle of view
- decent video quality
- chime included
- no subscription required
The doorbell really can be installed in about 5 minutes or less, especially if you’re choosing to use the 3M sticking method, but even if you’re drilling it into place, it’s not the most difficult install. However, I did have an issue when I quickly clicked through the tutorial for “no wedge piece” and then later decided I wanted to use the wedge and found out there is no way to go back and watch the install steps without removing the camera from the app and starting fully over. This is a major fault by wyze and coupled with the fact that I couldn’t find the tutorial steps anywhere on their website or in any paperwork that came with the doorbell means we have truly reached an age where we just simply quit bothering to give consumers a proper manual with ALL the steps. This really disappointed me and even though I was able to figure it out through trial and error, a proper manual with installation steps for ALL install types would have been appreciated so I knew I was doing it correctly. (I was not sure which screws to use and ended up drilling holes in the wrong part of the wedge before realizing there were smaller screws I could use.) BUT, assuming you follow the installation tutorial correctly, you should be fine and it shouldn’t take long.
Once I was up and going, (I already had a wyze account and app so that was not figured into my install time) I found the doorbell operations in the app very similar to any other wyze camera controls. There’s some basic settings and controls and overall I was able to have the doorbell set to my preferred settings and operational in just a few minutes. I live on a fairly non busy street with little motion and after 5 days the battery has dropped 10%. I’m not getting a whole lot of motion alerts but I do have the cool off set to 1 minute. (I’m not a cam plus subscriber so I’m using the basic settings only.) The battery did drop about 7% during the setup and probably drained a lot while it was one when I was putting it on the wall. I can’t say much to how long the battery will truly last but I do know it takes a while to charge which is somewhat upsetting. Around 5 hours to charge means you have to take the doorbell down for 5 hours and not have any useable doorbell or camera during that time. If you have an existing doorbell, you can use those wires to trickle charge the doorbell and assuming you don’t have a lot of motion, you probably won’t need to charge the unit. HOWEVER, Wyze says you can NOT use the doorbell with your existing doorbell chime. I’m not sure if that’s true, but if you’re wanting to do that, I would double check with wyze first.
So far after a few days, the doorbell has done a good job of detecting things like amazon delivery and other packages being dropped off, I’m able to see the faces and make sure no pirates come along and steal my boxes. Getting the delivery people to actually ring the doorbell is another issue, but when I have been testing the bell and ringing it, it seems to work pretty well. There is quiet a delay between pressing the button and getting the notification though. I have a fast wifi and the bell is within 20 feet of the router. I’ve seen most people have similar results with 5 seconds up to 20 seconds delay, so don’t expect to see a notification right away. Most of the time the person who rang the bell is already walking away by the time I get a notification and the app opens and loads.
THE BAD:
- installation instructions are lacking
- delay in notification response
- 2 way talking sounded gargled
- no SD card for local recording/subscription required for longer recordings
- battery charge time
- recorded clips are short (without cam+)
- extra plugin chimes are not for sale or available at this time (sept 2022)
There’s not a whole lot of bad issues with this doorbell and so far none of them have been deal breakers for me, more just frustrating. My unique situation that I am using it in also makes the negative issues less annoying. For example, having short recordings and slow responses is not a huge deal for me because I also have a wyze cam pointing out the window covering the front yard so anything the doorbell misses or cuts short I can see on another camera. I would suggest anyone looking into this doorbell to do the same. Cover your areas with at least 2 different cameras, that way if one fails you have a backup plus multiple angles helps.
Not having local SD storage is probably the biggest bummer for me. I understand being a battery powered doorbell it can’t handle 24/7 recording to a SD card anyway but it would be nice to have local recordings even just for shorter recordings and not needing to rely on a cloud recording on a server somewhere else. Wyze claims it’s a security issue but I think we all know it’s to get more people to sign up for the cam plus. Which is fine, but also means some people may choose to buy a different product that provides local recording.
OVERALL:
Overall this is a decent doorbell that provides you with a budget friendly option to still get minimum features without a subscription and the benefit of not needing to drill one hole in the house if you can’t or don’t want to. I imagine renters or those with little to know DIY skills would love to be able to stick this doorbell to the wall and be done. I don’t know how well the 3M stick will hold over time, but I assume it would last a decent amount of time. You may want to look into buying replacements with your doorbell though if you choose to go that route.
The wyze doorbell pro is easy on the wallet, easy to install and easy to operate. If you’re looking for a quick and cheap doorbell fix, you may want to try out this one.
