Updated October 2026

It gives a sharper 2.5K HDR picture, a native RTSP stream, sound-alarm detection and local recording to microSD, and it can run several units for the price of the other cam. The Eufy 4G Camera S230 is the specialist: it carries its own 4G LTE radio, around three months of battery, 8 GB of built-in storage and an IP67 shell, so it keeps watching a building site, a field or a caravan where there is no internet at all. Pick the Eufy 4G Camera S230 only when the site has no Wi-Fi, and the Wyze Cam v4 for everything a normal home needs.

What the differences mean

Connection

The Eufy 4G Camera S230 has no Wi-Fi at all: it connects over 4G LTE with a SIM, which is the whole point of the model. The Wyze Cam v4 needs a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, which almost every home has but a remote site does not.

Power

The Eufy runs on a rechargeable battery for around three months per charge, with no solar option built in. The Wyze Cam v4 is mains-powered and never needs a charge, but it must sit near a socket.

Storage

The Eufy 4G Camera S230 holds about two months of footage on 8 GB of internal memory and keeps recording through power and network outages. The Wyze Cam v4 records to a microSD card you supply (plus optional cloud), so capacity is your choice but the card is an extra.

Video and light

The Wyze Cam v4 records 2.5K with HDR and supports sound alarms, while the Eufy 4G Camera S230 tops out at 2K without HDR but adds a spotlight, siren and GPS. For a lit porch the Wyze looks better; on a dark remote site the Eufy's spotlight earns its place.

Weather rating

The Eufy 4G Camera S230 is IP67, covering dust and temporary immersion, against IP65 on the Wyze Cam v4. Both handle rain, but the Eufy is built for harsher, less sheltered spots.

Which one to buy if

  • the camera has to watch a site with no internet at all

    The Eufy 4G Camera S230 runs on its own 4G LTE link and its own battery, so it needs nothing on site but a SIM and a view of the sky.

  • you are covering a normal home with Wi-Fi

    The Wyze Cam v4 is cheaper, sharper in mixed light and records to microSD, which is all most homes need.

  • you want to track a camera on something that moves

    The Eufy 4G Camera S230 has built-in GPS, which suits a caravan, a boat or equipment that could be taken.

  • you want several cameras on a budget

    The Wyze Cam v4 costs a fraction of the Eufy, so the same money buys a wider net of fixed views.

What owners say

Wyze Cam v4 owners describe a camera that punches above its price. They point to 2.5K footage that reads clearly as a step up from older Wyze models, color night vision good enough to identify someone in a dark driveway, and a compact magnetic base that takes minutes to place. Several set up four cameras in about an hour, and they like that popping in a microSD card keeps recording local and subscription-free. The recurring complaints are about the plan and the hardware: person, pet, vehicle and package alerts need a Cam Plus subscription, a notable group reports newer Wyze units failing sooner than older v1 and v2 cameras, and the camera is 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only with no privacy zones.

Price history compared

Every price change of both, in the same store, so the gap between the two lines is what one costs more than the other.
