- Today, I'll show you the Wyze Cam OG aftermarket window mount that I bought and we will compare this to the Wyze Cam V3 on the Wyze Window Mount. I'm also installing my OG 3X Telephoto on this mount and see what the video quality looks like in both daytime and at night.

I bought the WYZE OG and I'm amazed at the amount of features for a 20$ cam!
I also got the window mount and I was befuddled as to why I get the glare at night. I had the IF on. Thanks for the video, everything works perfectly now!
That's awesome!
How much is the monthly sub
Thanks for a great review!
@robbabcock1969...Thanks for watching!
Great review video and good work. Thank you. 💐👍🌹💐
@zuhairhlayel...Thanks for watching!
I have one of my V3s with the window mount and it works perfectly. One of the best products out there.
I agree..and I don't know why they missed making on for their OG series.
My only complaint is that you can't remove the window mount once its placed. The area you set it up is its final location so you can't make any adjustments or place in new area. That's a real downside 👎🏻.
Is it color at night or black &white ?
Works very well.
Excellent video
@Vintage27...Thanks for watching!
You really should rebuy the wise 3 every year because they keep coming out with a slightly different model. If you open it up you'll notice it's a different processor than the first edition
As I didn’t want a subscription (like a lot of people), I went with Eufy. I’m using the Mini Indoor C24 and the Mini Indoor 2K (the Best Buy Exclusive Pan & Tilt) inside home to view outside. For the Indoor C24, I would love to find the same window mount to reduce glare but the camera face is not flat. It would be nice that Eufy thinks about this for future models…
They have it at Amazon -> amzn.to/3LyOmdA
Interesting window mount.
Only can it be angled a bit up or down? If not then it might be useless.
2:46 though I really like to see about or at least a 30-degree of tilt in each direction.
Can you please link up the cable management? Love the channel!
Fantastic review as always 😊 suggestions for a new review is best recording settings for 1-NVRs, 2-Tracmix, 3-security setup, etc for each camera systems. Yes, sounds like a lot of info but I have a mix of cameras that record random bugs, etc. that I'd like your opinion and best tips. God bless
My front Reolink NVR cameras..a couple of them record 24/7 and the rest especially on the side and backyard record only all motion events. I only set some of them to give me person and animal notifications. I also have a mix of 4K and couple of 4 and 5 MP cameras. These setup in a 8 channel NVR with 2 TB and gives me 11 days worth of recordings.
@@LifeHackster Thank you for your suggestions. Would you recommend 8TB or greater hard drives for your NVRs? I was considering upgrading my 2TB NVR. Appreciate all your work.
Thanks L.H.
@ronm6585...Thanks for watching!
Hello I was wondering if you can review the Vivit pro door bell or it’s system? Thank you for all your review they are really helpful!
Please also give us your review and opinion about the new Eufy solar S120 wall light camera.
Greetings from Torrance! Love these accessories reviews! My city just got upset with me mounting my Reolink cameras to the street sign poles even though they are barely seen. Anymore ideas you may have to mount a camera closer to the street I am all ears! Thanks again and I hope you and your family have been well. Take care!
Hello Paul..sorry to hear about your city getting upset....You can use zoom camera though like the Reolink 823A-16X that I checked out a while back and even this OG 3X from Wyze gives a pretty close up view 50-100 feet away. Thanks for watching!
I had the same problem with my landlord. I can't drill holes in the wall (understandable) so this works perfect! He can't say a word!
Good video, I enjoy all your videos. I have a question. Have you gone back to look at the Panasonic Homehawk Window camera since your review? I know you liked it except you couldn’t download the videos without removing the sd card. Was wondering if they had fixed that and any other improvements they might of made. Thanks!
I haven't but I did get an email from them that they added and fixed it. I will try to fire that one up again and probably compare it to this and other window mounted cameras...we will see...
Excuse my ignorance. But I have several old original Wyze cams. Will these mounts work with those as well?
Love the wyze content! Just curious, any up coming reviews on the new anker and eufy products? I like what they make but it makes me very upset to see the recent controversy surrounding them at the moment so I'm guessing that's why there seems to be a sort of hold on eufy content over all on youtube. Wondering what your opinion on this is and keep up the great videos!
I did review their wall cam recently and they have other new products coming out...2-3 months from now. Yes, that controversy kinda halted their plans..but it is more of misinformation surrounded that issue because the snapshot/rich notification being uploaded to the cloud is a SOP of that feature and every other camera brand also does that...the only difference is that Eufy is not charging money for it..and they are the ones that got it trouble. Thanks for watching!
Thank you this was a great help 😊 as I'm in a rental and cant screw holes.
Is there any other suggestions for behind for behind-window cameras i could use, and video doorbells that would work behind a flywire security door? Or is it better to get a video doorbell with 3m tape to brick wall
If you can wire it, it should work except the screen will show up in the footage a bit.
@@LifeHackster 🙂
Great! I was wondering if anyone had created one yet. Thanks for the info! Does anyone make adjustable/angled window mounts?
I really haven't found one yet that makes an adjustable window mount.
Thanks for the review lifehackster. Do you think the reolink and it’s ecosystem (nvr, doorbell cam, floodlight cam, spotlight cam etc) still the best self-hosted system (non-cloud based)
Yes.. and this is mostly because this is the one I use and know the app and software. Thanks for watching!
Can someone explain how that one works or give me a video link.
Do you have any recommendations on a 4k (or at least better than 1080p) camera that I can stick up to my window? All my cameras that are stuck up to my window are Wyze cameras but the subscriptions and the image quality is making me consider replacing. Thanks!
There is no 4K yet for window mounted cameras but the Eufy C24 is 2K and no subscription and also have a window mount -> amzn.to/3NlRNWc and amzn.to/3n8Mj6G
@@LifeHackster Thank you sir!
Do you know if the window mount will fit the eufy Solo IndoorCam C24? After looking at prices in the uk the Wyze cam where £67 but the eufy c24 was only £27 so went with that. Just looking for a window mount for that 😊 might try and squeeze it into the wyze window mount
@@JohnScheppler thank you so much searching now 👍
Amazon sells specific for the C24 -> amzn.to/3NnuueF
I have the OG can someone help me figure out why I keep receiving two notifications of the same event? Tia
I'd like to see a comparison with the Panasonic mounted window camera.
I might do a comparison video with the Panasonic, Eufy, and Blink mini with their respective window mounts.
^For a home alarm system.... would you go wired or wireless. I am new to this and trying to figure out which to choose for my godparents house as they have an old wired system that is out of order and the sensors are screwed up. With wireless i worry that the alarm isn't loud enough to hear usually... as their current old wired alarm the whole neighborhood could hear it at night if it goes off lol. ( not that it matters because no one bothers to check their house when it goes off.) With wired i worry though that it could cost more than $2000 for installation? They need a new alarm panel, and then the sensors set up on the windows and motion detection. Not sure what to do as they travel often and want them to have the best. I know nothing will deter a bad guy 100%, but it's also for mostly peace of mind and to check in on the house when away
Wireless is the easiest way and you have a lot of options. I personally use the ring alarm and hasn’t given me any issues..plus you can build it up..meaning you can start buying the essential kit and add more sensors eventually. The alarm base also has a pretty loud siren.
@@LifeHackster thank u!
Can you take the camera out of the mount and open the window past the mounts? Or does this make the window opening a no go.
Could you possibly put it on the window that is the one sliding up and down?
Can you try these window mounts but, in single-pane windows?
Definitely, you can.
You can get a similar window mount for the Eufy C24 camera and the same sets to control IR and LED lights. I've been running this setup for a long time. Plus, there are no subscription cost for thumbnail notifications.
Yes you can and also an option. The only thing with eufy is that it is not a starlight sensor and its night vision and IR setting is all in one. You cannot do a black and white mode without IR on.
@@LifeHackster I have auto night vision turned off, and the status LED turned off. Maybe I'm lucky enough to have enough street lighting in my area that I get full color records.
😊
From saudi👍
It’s already not available on Amazon.😢
Hi, can you please do a review of all the mobile apps for each of the security cameras? Specifically the ones without a subscription/contract. The mobile app for the camera I have is completely useless. I have to take the SD card out and put it in my computer to play the videos cuz they won't play on the app. I thought it was my bad wifi or brick house but it doesn't work even when I'm standing right under it. Please help!
Which one do you have? Some brands do that so that you would want to subscribe to their cloud recordings.
@LifeHackster yep! I tried the 7 day trial and it's working better now. I got a cheap one on Amazon. I should have known. 🤦🏻♀️ what free app is the best do you think?
@@LifeHackster toaioho was the brand. The camera was on sale for 20. I like it besides the fact the app doesn't work
@LifeHackster I want a wired system cuz our wifi is bad. Is there any with an app as well as record to a nvr?
@@BritiniMartini I have been using Reolink because of their NVR system (wired) and no cloud subscription required. The app has a learning curve to it but once you know, it is pretty good.
2 days after you upload and the OG window mount is sold out! 😡
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully, they can restock soon.
no accent please
Too bad Wyze decided to go with their subscription service. I will never pay for a camera that constantly has to update its firmware. Then, your settings have to be reprogrammed as well as some of the new cameras do not work on the older software. Old cameras record without subscription and new ones do not. I do love Lifehackster & trust what he posts.
@frankm2385... I know. Almost everytime I check my V3 (window mount and just a backup - I just check once every 2 weeks mostly) it will prompt me that there is an update. It hasn't stop recording though...Thanks for watching!
The firmware upgrades don't touch your settings FYI
@@ps_83 FYI....they do with my cameras. You must be a Wyze employee.
@@frankm2385 nope just been using them since they came out. Still have a V2 running and never had any problems with that one either
@@ps_83 Consider yourself lucky. Reps. from Wyze conceded to this issue a year ago.
