Score: 78/100Rankings
The Wyze Cam OG is an affordable wired security camera offering 1080p video with impressive color night vision and a built-in spotlight. Its main trade-off is the lack of wireless power and pan/tilt functionality, limiting placement flexibility. It is best suited for budget-conscious users who have access to power outlets and want reliable outdoor surveillance.
The Blink Wired Floodlight Camera offers a budget-friendly hardwired solution with bright 2600-lumen floodlights and a built-in siren. While it provides reliable motion detection and Alexa integration, its 1080p resolution and 60-second clip limit are notable drawbacks. It is best suited for users seeking affordable perimeter lighting and basic security monitoring.
