Duo Cam Doorbell SD card issue

These aren’t fake unless Costco is carrying fake cards now. But I’ll run them through the util. I’ll also try the Samsung Endurance brand to see if it works. Thanks for the info.

Instead of using SanDisk Ultra, you are probably better off with trying SanDisk High Endurance cards due them constantly being overwritten.

That being said, ever since I switched over to a Wyze 256GB microSD card, I haven’t had any issues on the Duo Doorbell, so you might have to try their brand.

Thank you both for your advise. I will look into the Samsung and SanDisk Endurance cards. Since this camera records in 2K and its grabbing dual feeds the requirements maybe more stringent. However, it would be good for Wyze to test and officially recommend cards beyond their Wyze branded cards for cameras with a more restrictive performance parameter.

I used the Sandisk High Endurance and still had issues with my Duo. I tried multiple cards. Support could not resolve it.

Could be a firmware issue or faulty hardware. I returned my camera so can no longer test it.

Also having issues with my SD card… I’m using a SanDisk 256GB Extreme. I use this card in all my other cams which currently consist of a few V3 Pros & a few battery Cam Pros… All with no issues using the same 256GB card. Tried formatting & using different cards with no change to the issue. I also used the card which had an “issue” on the Duo in other cams & it worked fine.

If you are having a lot of issues with micro SD cards, the problem is not the card itself.

For my purpose, I just use good micro SD cards and have never had a bad or corrupted micro SD. I only use event recording, but have used the same cards since 2019.

There is nothing magical about getting the right memory card.

@ssummerlin - Agreed. I took the 2 256gb sdcards from the db v2’s, reformatted them on my PC and put them in the new duos. Good to go.

I ordered some New lexar v30 64 GB cards and they work perfectly. It seems that the doorbell Duo does not like older micro SD cards even though they work fine in other Wyze products.

As of December 4, 2024, my 128GB SanDisk STILL cannot perform continuous recording. This SD card was pulled from a Cam v3, so it’s DEFINITELY not a compatibility issue.

After THREE factory resets, it STILL doesn’t record!

My guess? The poor firmware on the Duo Cam is STILL far from being stabilized. This is beyond frustrating!
