Should I upgrade from my current Outdoor Camera Pro to the new Outdoor Camera Pro 3?
Your current Outdoor Camera Pro is still a powerful crime deterrent, but many of the latest features—like enhanced Smart Deter—are exclusive to the new technology built into the Outdoor Camera Pro 3.
What’s new about the Outdoor Camera Pro 3?
The Outdoor Camera Pro 3 introduces next-generation RADAR-powered detection, improved person and vehicle identification, sharper video quality, upgraded night vision, and enhanced Smart Deter. It also integrates seamlessly into a full Vivint smart security system.
How is the Outdoor Camera Pro 3 installed?
The camera uses a wired Ethernet connection with Power over Ethernet (PoE), delivering both power and data through a single cable. It is wired to a Wi-Fi bridge inside the house, which then connects wirelessly to your home network. A Vivint professional technician handles installation to ensure proper placement, wiring, and system integration.
What is RADAR-powered detection, and why does it matter?
RADAR tracks both movement and distance, so the camera can more accurately identify people and vehicles—and ignore false alerts from animals, trees, shadows, or lighting changes.
Is there a security camera that whistles?
Yes! Vivint has a security camera that whistles. The Outdoor Camera Pro 3 features Smart Deter — a unique deterrent system built into the camera that whistles when it detects someone loitering. This sound, combined with its red LED ring, helps alert potential intruders that they’re being watched, prompting them to leave the property. It's just one of the many ways Vivint adds proactive security to your home.
"I love my Vivint Doorbell Camera! It captures every view so clearly, giving me peace of mind that nothing is missed. And honestly and who doesn’t love the whistle feature when someone at the door? It’s such a fun and unique touch that also adds extra security. This camera makes me feel safer and more confident about protecting my home. Definitely recommend!" - Adilene Perez, 8/31/2025
How many outdoor security cameras do I need?
It’s hard to say exactly how many you need, so it can depend on:
- The size of your home.
- The size of your property.
- What you’re using the cameras for.
- Whether you have additional buildings to protect (like a shed).
- The bandwidth limit on your network.

How does the Outdoor Camera Pro record?
The Outdoor Camera Pro 3 triggers automatic video recording when a person is detected within the camera’s field of vision. You’ll only get notified when the camera identifies people and vehicles. Pets aren’t detected. And the camera doesn't stop recording until the action's over.

Watch clips at your convenience, or create custom alerts to notify you about activity around your home through your hub or app. Learn more about how the award-winning Outdoor Camera Pro keeps home safe.
