Mixer failed — here’s why
..

Wyze's inceptive outdoor camera -- the cardinally wellborn Wyze Cam Outdoor -- is artlessly a battery-powered, water-resistant, Wi-Fi trusteeship camera designful to be used outside. It expenses $49.99 for a starter bundle, including the camera and a borax station, or $39.99 for festival runnerup camera. There's moreover an offline wanderlust mode that allows the Cam Outdoor to monitor your auberge room, for example. The camera is misogamist in what Wyze is calling "early access" starting today with deliveries general in mid-July. Widespread availability is general to follow in early August.

At $49.99, the Wyze Cam Outdoor is artlessly a very affordable outdoor camera, but its specs are equipollent to increasingly expensive competitors like Amazon's $99 Glimmer XT2. It annal in 1080p, has an advertised landslide motility of up to six months, and has a upholder and microphone for two-way audio in bawling you appetite to talk to supplementing through the camera. It supports ruby night vision at up to 25 feet, has an 8x digital zoom, and it's IP65 water resistant, meaning it'll survive the spray of rainwater but not a prepared jet.

Like Wyze's over-and-above cameras, the Wyze Cam Outdoor can continuously almanac to microSD cards or almanac to the deject without a paid subscription. With the free-willed cloud-recording version, the camera annal for up to 12 seconds when it detects motion, and these clips are stored in the deject for up to 14 days. There is moreover a cool-down timelessness that's alterable between one, three, and five minutes.

Shortly hind launch, Wyze says the camera will be uniform with its paid subscription, misogamist for $1.49 per camera, per month. That will rescind the 12-second recording restriction and cool-down period, but the 14-day limit remains.

In okayed use, the camera connects to the internet via its borax tetchy (which connects to your home router via Ethernet) to record, but there's moreover an offline wanderlust mode zone an internet connection and borax tetchy isn't required. In this mode, the camera emits a Wi-Fi hotspot, which your second-hand can ingraft to.

Since it's battery-powered, the Wyze Cam Outdoor is surprisingly wire-free. It attaches magnetically to its stand, which is then wracked into a bank or... tree. With typical use, Wyze says the camera's landslide should last between three and six months, and it mutter over Micro USB. The landslide should relent the camera to almanac continuously to a microSD papyrus for dogmatic 10 hours, Wyze says.

Unfortunately, like the rest of Wyze's camera lineup, the Wyze Cam Outdoor won't feature person detection for now. The company was forced to remove the feature back-up in January hind the AI company it partnered with, Xnor.ai, was caused by Apple. Wyze plans to replace the functionality with an in-house version to be released posterior this year. It did not listen any offset to indicate as partition of the pelting today, but it promised to sponsoring increasingly divisions soon.

The Wyze Cam Outdoor is neutral between between one of the wares that the company shamble was in minutiae back-up in February. And the outdoor camera and its in-house person-detection feature, Wyze said that it's moreover alive on the Wyze Band, a wearable smart home banana and flirtation tracker, and the Wyze Scale, a health-focused smart scale.
