SD setting will essentially double your time capacity on your card (give or take a margin) compared to HD recording.

For example, on a 32GB card recording continuous, HD = about 3.5 days (+/-); SD = about 7 days (+/-)

You mentioned 360p. Here is a statement by Wyze:

> So for wyze cameras, both “SD” and “HD” are 1080P resolution. “SD” just have lower bitrate to save both your bandwidth and SD card space. If you choose live stream to be “HD” or “360P”, then you will get 1080P recording with higher bitrate in your SD card (about 5.5MB/minute). And if you choose live stream to be “SD”, then you will get 1080P recording with lower bitrate in your SD card (about 3MB/minute). We don’t record 360P to SD card, only 1080P.
