* Are either Wyze Cam OG or Wyze Cam OG Telephoto Cam Plus Lite compatible?
* No, neither camera is compatible with Cam Plus Lite.
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
Edit - Poster below found these new cameras are not eligible for the Cam Plus Lite sub.

All my old iOS devices eventually develop random error-itis. We generally keep them for the kids to face time relatives. They all drop calls when rotating the screen. 🤷 Da-fudge apple?
Do you do this via the online chat box? I tried myself but it only gave me irrelevant information.
Or request it after you completed the order. Thanks!
The chatbot keeps giving me how free shipping not applying on preorder items....
Thanks!

You can still get video clip to store locally on the camera itself if you add a SD card to it and enable the "continuous" recording mode. However, the playback is somewhat cumbersome and obviously you get no video if thieves just take the camera.
I don't blame Wyze for changing their business model. There is real cost to utilize cloud hosting services (say AWS or Azure) to upload, AI process to detect objects, store, and also serve the video backdown to your App. You really shouldn't expect a $20 retail camera to have the CPU power to AI detect people/car/pets/packages. You definitely shouldn't expect an one-time $20 purchase will yield you a camera and lifetime worth of cloud-based services.
There are camera model such as Wyze V3 Pro at $50 that can at least do people detection onboard if you want less false-positives on motion. There are other much more $$$ ones such as Eufy which can do everything locally if you want. Also this just mean that you are paying for hardware/service upfront.
I hate monthly subscription as much as the next guy, but there are real cost to company to provide cloud related services. At least Wyze didn't pull an "Arlo" and took away the "free 7-day cloud storage" by proclaiming older hardware as deprecated. Wyze is still supporting older hardware. Feel free to buy slightly older hardware such as V3 at $35 price point if the "free" Lite subscription is important to you.
I got burned by Arlo already (I have about 8 cameras at much higher total cost). All the big boys (Arlo, Ring, Nest, etc.) all have similar model and similar price point. I picked Wyze as my Arlo replacement simply because their cheaper upfront cost and I am paying for the $99/year for "unlimited" camera subscription.
Arlo has similar subscription price point, but you will not get me to pay them another dime for the stunt they pulled. I think what Wyze is doing is fair. You want LITE subscription, buy older hardware. You want the new shiny and cheaper camera, subscription is required if you want cloud service.

We all want a top performing car like Tesla S Plaid at $20K and it better comes with free "unlimited" SuperCharging since it doesn't run without energy and I already paid $20k for it. If you are only willing to pay $20 for a simple camera, then don't expect it to come with all the bell-n-whistles like onboard AI detection, free cloud storage, etc.
It cost several hundred dollars to get a machine fast enough to run BI or Synology. It also cost $ to pay for electricity to run a beefy machine to do all the AI stuff. I rather pay Wyze to run and maintain that. Yes, there are privacy issues, but do you really think the HIKVision/Dahua/Chinese specials are any better?

Another bad thing for ordering on Wyze web site, you can NOT cancel order if it is placed more than 2 hours. It doesn't give you the option. It says you have to wait to receive the order then ask for a return, sigh..
This V3 OG will require paid subscription to do more intelligent detection such as people, car, pet, and packages. Without that, you may get a bunch of unnecessary notifications of moving trees, clouds, etc. As other has already mentioned, the free plan doesn't apply to this new OG camera.

"Does the Wyze Cam v3 Pro support Cam Plus Lite?
No, as of right now, Cam Plus Lite only supports cameras released during or before April 2022, such as Wyze Cam Outdoor v2."
