It is IP65 sealed for genuine outdoor use rather than needing a special adapter, records to microSD with 24/7 and offline history at no cost, offers color night vision with a built-in spotlight, supports motion zones, and works with Google Home, Alexa, Home Assistant and IFTTT rather than Alexa alone. The Blink Mini 2 is better rated and includes a siren the Wyze lacks, along with its own spotlight, color night vision and weather resistance with the outdoor adapter, but clip history and person alerts sit behind a Blink subscription. Wyze also charges for people, package, vehicle and face detection. Buy the Wyze Cam OG for free local recording and wider platform support, and the Blink Mini 2 if you want a siren and Blink's simplicity in an Alexa home.
