With so many high-quality options close in price, even a small discount can make a big difference.

How I discovered the home security cameras I didn't know I needed. According to the most recent crime data, in one year there were over 10,000 break-ins reported in Massachusetts- with only 1,331 arrests made in the same year for burglary/breaking and entering. That’s just the ones that were reported, and not including times packages are stolen from front porches, or an attempt was made but they didn’t get far enough. When it comes to keeping your family and house safe, it’s important to put your trust in a company that cares about you. This is why I decided to try out Wyze for myself and take an in-depth look at how their home security cameras can help keep my house safe.
