Brilliant camera, can't believe its as cheap as it is. Super easy to set up and the App is great, which is a nice surprise. I'm most impressed with the fast connection to the camera over WiFi. Watching footage back is so simple with no buffering whatsoever. I paired mine with a Vansuny 128GB micro SD and so far everything continues to work a treat. Highly recommend.

The Tapo camera works brilliantly! It was easy and quick to set up, and attaching it to the wall was a breeze. I’ve had no connection issues after a couple of months, and the picture quality is great. The audio is a bit quiet, but considering the price, it’s fantastic value. The night mode and mic are both excellent too. Highly recommend!

I was skeptical about the price of this camera considering the features claimed but I was thoroughly surprised by this product. I have a home assistant server with a motionEye integration which has multiple wireless cctv cameras attached. This allows me to store video locally and I do not need to use any external apps nor pay subscriptions. To be able to configure this setup I use the RTSP protocol which serves up a live video feed but not all manufacturers allow this. The reason for this is to force you into using their proprietary app to store video in the cloud. This is usually through a costly subscription and renders the camera almost useless (other than as a live camera feed) if you don’t pay monthly. I find this practice extremely wasteful as it’s a soft lock they’ve decided to add with no technical reason for the limitation and likely causes a lot of these devices to end up being thrown away. It is therefore a somewhat unique and most welcomed feature that Tapo have provided: Full RTSP video feed support as standard. The cameras plastic case itself feels a little cheap but it doesn’t matter too much as it will just be sitting on a shelf in the corner. The stand is adequate with a rotating ball joint. The power is unfortunately via a barrel connector which is by far the biggest let down of this product. This should be a USBC port and there are no excuses for it not being one. The power cord is not long enough and as it’s a proprietary power adaptor you can’t just swap out for a longer cable like you would with usb. A bit of a hit and a miss. To setup the camera you have to download the Tapo app on your phone and follow the process. Very simple to go through and it’ll be accessible in no time. From here you can enable RTSP in the config and the stream will be available via a specific address. It requires you to provide a username and password to connect to the stream for extra security. The app doesn’t state the name of the stream (rtsp://IP Address/stream1) so I had to look it up but it was quick to find. Once completed I was able to configure my server to work with the camera no problem. The cameras picture quality is better than my older cams and is very sharp. It is only 1080p but I’m impressed with the definition. For the price you cannot complain at all. As an alternative to the RTSP feed, Tapo do offer a cloud storage service. If you want to use it instead then it is available via their app which feels better than other manufacturers I’ve come across. I don’t know if it’s value for money but seeing as they allow RTSP it doesn’t hurt shouting out their cloud service. I am quite conscious about privacy with network cameras and I like to turn off all remote access. To do this, once you’ve confirmed everything is working you can then add a firewall rule on your networks router to allow all LAN access but block all internet requests by the camera except for port 123 which is used to update the cameras internal clock. If you ever need to change the config you can enable the camera briefly to make the changes via the app. As your using RTSP via your local network it doesn’t need to connect to the manufacturers server to continue working. In summary, a highly configurable versatile camera for a great price that offers a sharp picture. Due to Tapo allowing RTSP as standard I will be buying many of their products in the future. Highly recommended.

I have now bought three of these cameras and installed at two properties. I was so impressed with the first one that I bought the other two to replace a couple of Nest cameras I had at the other property. I control all of them from one app on my smartphone. Installation is really easy, the picture quality is very impressive and can be enlarged and panned around also very easily. I have also installed 64GB microSD cards in each of them, which provides several weeks worth of video capture. When the card is full, it simply loops round and overwrites the oldest videos with the latest ones. Videos can also be downloaded. All of this with no subscription required :-) One tip which is worth noting is that I have mine on daylight mode all the time. I have them installed at double glazed windows and found that night mode was hopeless due to the reflection of the low light emitted by the camera itself. Day mode at night still provides a decent amount of visibility even under very low external light conditions. The functionality and value of this camera is way better than the first generation Nest cameras that I previously had. Very satisfied. :-)

Bought one of these while it was on an Amazon deal and I was so impressed I ended up buying two more and their smartplugs. Best features for me are that it's app-controlled with no nonsense (you don't need Alexa, but you can use it if you want), that it offers a plain and simple RTSP stream if you like (so even if the cloud goes off later, you can still use it, and you can tie it into CCTV NVRs, etc.), and there's not too much fiddling. The initial setup process is simple - turn it on, load the app, join the camera's internal wifi, tell it the details for the wifi you want it to use, it then just restarts and appears on the app. Motion detection is simple and works (I have one set to watch a bird feeder and it just works and sends me images only when the birds are feeding), the night mode is strong and works well, the devices are small and simple so you can mount/place them anywhere and the connection is good (even though it can only use 2.4GHz wifi, I have several devices connected and streaming all day long and they never go offline even when one is a floor up, one a floor down, and another at the opposite end of the house. I'd like a longer power cable (but I can buy extensions for them), or for them to be PoE or USB powered but that's a minor concern for such a cheap camera. Overall, I can't fault them, especially for the price I paid (£25).

Ich hatte schon mal die Kamara gekauft bin sehr zufrieden. Bei diesem Kauf habe leider eine englisch Adapter Version bekommen. Denn kann ich leider nicht benutzen für die deutschen Steckdosen 😂.

Got this to check up on my 8 week old puppy. Works a treat and picture quality is pretty good. I can talk to my dog through the camera from miles away which is a bonus. For the money you can't go wrong. Easy setup and use.

Super petite caméra et pour le prix rien n as dire a+

Excellent

Fácil de sincronizar. Buena calidad de imagen
