No RTSP support on these cameras
Last Updated by meranamjoker on 01-19-2023 at 06:18 AM
So from what I found out from their live stream is it is a "V4" in a way but with simple connections/housing so it's not a true V4 but it's also not a V3. It doesn't come with magnetic base and the base is more limited in range of motion. So from an internal hardware base it's better than V3 but packaging is less than a V3. I guess In a way like an iPhone SE or maybe even an iPad mini??? where its newer hardware but in older housing.
Two cameras = two SD cards
But once the stacking kit comes it's one power cable.
They wanted to go back to being a "low priced camera company". they mentioned there are going to be a lot of different cameras coming out in the future like wide angle, super wide angle, 5x, 7x zoom cameras and other options to add onto this "OG" ecosystem.
The V3 is compatible with other items like spot light, garage door, and other items where as the OG ecosystem won't be.
It will be two series: a higher end series and a lower end series and each will be compatible with their own system. So instead of buying multiple high end cameras for simple areas you can buy cheaper cameras that do one specific job for that one location. like instead of buying two OG cameras and stack them for a wider view, you would just put a V3 pan in that location. and instead of putting a V3 or V3 pan to see down the side of the house you would just put in an OG or OG telephoto to see the entrance gate down the side of the house.
I guess that would be the best way to put it. Each OG camera will do one specific job with a processor and sensor that is better than the V3 so it's not a V3 replacement. Hope this helps
trojan horse to get everyone on their wyze cam plus unlimited subscription
I bought the wyze came deal from home Depot which comes with 3 month cam plus. When I set them it said "activate your 3 month wyze cam plus membership" I was like "nope"

Seems worth a try if truly better notification/streaming response time and speaker (the reasons I ditched them for Eufy- but Eufy keeps eating my SD cards)

i've been having that issue with some of my Eufy's too... Samsung Pro Endurance cards have been working the best, haven't lost one yet.
i did however switch several of my cameras over to Reolink, i'm quickly becoming a fan.

Used to really like these guys as an early adopter, signed up for the BETA app, did my job reporting, never got a picked for a single cool BETA program and now everything is stripped away in their attempt to hamstring you into their cam plus crap.
Huge thumbs down

* Are either Wyze Cam OG or Wyze Cam OG Telephoto Cam Plus Lite compatible?
* No, neither camera is compatible with Cam Plus Lite.
