It costs less while recording 2K rather than 1080p, pans 360 degrees while tilting 114, streams RTSP into Home Assistant or a recorder, supports privacy zone masking, includes a siren and detects people, animals and baby crying for free, with a 2-year warranty against Wyze's 1 year. The Wyze Cam OG answers with weather resistance, colour night vision, a broader alert list and a built-in spotlight, since it is IP65 sealed and can sit outdoors, though its person, package, vehicle and face detection all require a Wyze subscription. Both record to microSD for free and work with Google Home, Alexa, Home Assistant and IFTTT. Buy the TP-Link Tapo C210 for sharper indoor coverage with free detection, and the Wyze Cam OG for outdoor use with colour at night.
