This has pan and tilt features though; allowing you auto track moving objects/people.

However the Wyze Cam v3 that you are referring to does have free Cam Plus Lite [wyze.com] support. (Basically free AI person detection). The Wyze Cam Pan v3 does not ergo it's debatable what is the better deal; I guess it depends on what your needs are. I would agree with you though that the V3 2 pack for $35 is the better bargain overall.

Incidentally, Tinycam Pro [amazon.com] supports LAN live view monitoring for most Wyze Cameras. This means you can make Wyze cameras into IP LAN cameras that don't need access to internet. (You will need internet access initially though to register/activate the cams via the Wyze app and Tinycam Pro)

Wyze Bridge [github.com] will also make these camera compatible with NVRs but my preferred method for live LAN viewing is using Tinycam on an old Firestick; works out well for me.

EDIT

I now realize that you were referring to V2 pan and not the V3 deal for $35 that has no pan or tilt ; my mistake and disregard all that crap lol. At least the Tinycam info could prove useful though...

Bought one recently as well - the panning and tracking is ridiculously cool but the actual results are not what many might think. Like if someone if walking in front of your house, the camera will begin tracking and move a little, stop, and move again (rinse and repeat). So lots of jerky, blurry footage that actually hurts the quality of footage massively.

The tracking is best thought of as a way to reposition the camera on the fly automatically for a target, and hope they don't move too fast/too much. Ideally an area that isn't too high traffic. When pointed outwards to my road the camera would constantly scan back and forth depending on sensitivity settings like a golden retriever (squirrel!) at anything that moved and hold for some time in last known position, taking the camera away momentarily from where I really need it to be watching.

YMMV, but IMO this is a niche security camera product. Amazing for price for the panning/tracking. Tons of features are hidden behind subscription paywall, be advised.

It's not a bad deal, it's just not as good as the "2 for $35 old model sale" you found last year. I have 2 of the v2 models and they are good, but the v3 offers a few more features: IP65 weather resistant, useable outdoors, 180 degree tilt.

Also, that v2 price was last year, not right now. Currently the lowest I could find for v2 is around $40-43 each (outside of shady shops).

$35 was a blackfriday deal, so I expect wyze to come up with a similar deal this year too.

I couldn't find the V2 pan "2 for $35" here on SD or via google (specific date range of black friday 2022), but oddly $22 for the V2 pan a month ago is a frontpage SD and black friday last year there was a post for the V2 pan at $30 and it was highly rated front page as well. How is $25 for a newer V3 pan not SD? lol

Aha! I was right then about you actually referring to the V3 $35 two pack deal at Home Depot. My Detective Pikachu skills are on fire today laugh out loud

Oh see I'd argue this is a better deal given these have the pan/tilt and zoom function and it's not a YMMV deal. $15 more to have 2 cameras with the pan/tilt/zoom is worth it IMO. I've skipped the V2 non-pans for the V2 pans before.

The V3 Pans seems to be an excellent deal at $25. The only thing that is preventing me from buying is the lack of free Cam Plus Lite [wyze.com] support. You are going to get a lot of alerts because of leaves blowing, trees moving, shadows ECT. Person detection makes a huge difference and mitigates most false alerts. Free person detection with 24 hour MicroSD recording is the combo that works best for me.

I purchased 2 sets of V3 cams from the Home Depot deal for $70 and they have been excellent. The cams work well velcro taped to the inside of windows and have superb night vision even through glass. (Just deactivate IR lights)

I 24 hour live view the V3s via Tinycam Pro on an old 1080p Firestick connected to a $20 used/Amazon Warehouse Cocar security monitor [amazon.com]. The setup has been working great for months now.

Yeah they're like $18 on TikTok shop.

Edit: they're up to $19.74 on TikTok. Still better than this deal https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8ySbk6o/
