TC65 2K Security Camera Outdoor Wireless & Wired, Outdoor Camera No Monthly Fee, Smart Person Detection, Advanced Night Vision,Two-Way Talk, IP66 Weatherproof, Works with Alexa & Google

I love Tapo cameras. This is my second one as the first one was so simple to install and connect, the app allows you to have up to 36 cameras to be connected to the same device. The video quality is amazing for the price of the camera. I like all the different setting on the camera so you can focus in exactly where you want the camera to pick up any movement. You can also turn on function like person detection, Line crossed detection, camera tampering, you can also turn on a alarm which is great if you see someone on your property. The night vision is great (tip, if you are using the camera pointing out of a window turn off the night mode and then the camera will be able to see out of the glass) I like the LED functioning lights so you and others know that the camera is working. Even though the camera is not the smallest people do not notice it, so its good that it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb on your property. Another tip - purchase a good quality Micro SD card as the cheap ones can sometimes cause problems with the camera unable to record. The Tapo app is so easy to use which is a big sell to me as I want to be able to see quickly what is going on outside. Ill defiantly be buying more Tapo cameras in the future.

Just like everything from tp-link, These cameras are AMAZING! -Very easy to connect and set up despite what some reviews say. (and we have rubbish internet/wifi) -Picture quality is amazing -Night mode is brilliant -The AI features of recognizing people etc are brilliant -All the app features are useful and well thought out.(and despite what reviews say you can do everything without paying the subscription as long as youve got an SD card in it. -Works with Alexa, Google and Siri. -You can pay a very reasonable price to use cloud storage instead of messing around with SD cards (although this is as simple as putting an SD card in the camera.) -The notifications are instant and the app handles everything very well(supports up to 32 cameras and you can mix types) There are no negatives to these cameras like the reviews are saying just people not reading the description properly and buying the wrong camera for what they need! If you need OUTDOOR buy OUTDOOR, if you need INDOOR buy INDOOR. Its simple. If you buy one and face it out of your window it WONT WORK at night time, of course it wont, the IR will give a reflection. I am so very impressed with these cameras i can't get over how good they are for the price. You will absolutely not get any better for the price. if you need security cameras BUY THESE. I've ordered an indoor one and a second outdoor one at the time of writing this.

I’ve been using the Security Camera for a few weeks now and I’m genuinely impressed. Setup was super simple, it takes just a few minutes to update firmware and setup using the Tapo app and it was up and running. The 2K video quality is incredibly sharp, far better than my old 1080p camera. It covers a full 360 degree pan, so I don’t have to worry about blind spots. The motion tracking is very responsive, it smoothly follows people or objects across the frame, which adds a real sense of security. One of my favourite features is the full-colour night vision. Even in pitch dark, I can see who’s outside in detail, which is a game-changer compared to the usual black-and-white night feeds. The IP65 rating means I can trust it in the UK weather - rain, wind, or shine, it just keeps working. It integrates easily with Alexa and Google Assistant, so I can check the feed hands-free when I’m busy around the house. I also love the fact that there’s no monthly fee - I use a microSD card for local storage, but there’s also a cloud option if I ever want it. Overall, the security camera is great value for money. It’s smart, sturdy, and full of advanced features you’d expect from more expensive brands. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade their home security without breaking the bank in the current cost of living crisis.

I didn’t expect a great deal from a £47 security camera, however I’ve been pleasantly surprised. The camera itself is of good quality and very easy to set up, quick look at the instructions, download the Tapo app and you’re up and running. The only thing I will mention is that no where in the instructions do they give you a recommended height at which to mount the camera for optimal use. After a quick look on Google I found the information I needed, most recommending to mount anywhere between 8ft - 11ft. I mounted at about the max 11ft. This was ideal as I was able to drill through the house wall into a bedroom to plug in the power supply. The camera has bracket to fix to a flat wall, however I wanted mine mounted on the corner of my property so I can look at the front driveway area and be able to pan round to look down the side of the house. To do this I had to purchase a corner bracket which I found on eBay. The camera quality is very good, easily matching that of my ring doorbell, and the pan and tilt facility is excellent, easily controlled through the app on my phone. The camera uses AI for motion tracking, motion detection and person detection, this is great, however you need to have play around with sensitivity settings once you have it install in your desired position to get it to work at its best. I found with the motion detection set high the camera went crazy trying to chase rain drops, so I have motion at low sensitivity and person detection at full. You can subscribe to the Tapo cloud to store and playback and recordings, however there’s no need to do so as the camera has a slot for a micro sd card. I bought a 512gb Sandisk sd card, which will on average record a months worth of recordings based on average detections. The good thing is, when the sd card is at max capacity the camera simply starts to delete the oldest recordings, so you should always have around a constant months worth of recordings. Overall this is a great camera for the money, however by the time I’ve added the angled mounting bracket and sd card it stands me at £100 but in my opinion this is cheap due to the fact you don’t pay any monthly subscription like you do for other cameras.

Great product, brought 2 x TC65/C310 Tapo cameras for front of house. PROS : 1. Piece of cake to install and set up even for a novice. 2. Works a charm, has loads of settings to suit individual needs. 3. Sort of replaces our RING door bell as it has 2 way audio and for us its extremely clear and not laggy at all. 4. Supports RTSP so can stream on TV or monitors via live- streaming apps that offer this service (VLC MEDIA) 5. Alerts are pretty much instantaneous (varies depending on mobile network) but with good mobile / wifi services - notifications are spot on CONS : 1. You need to fiddle with the motion alert settings to avoid constant unnecessary notifications - on day 1 with everything maxed out we were getting loads of alerts from rain, wind, spiders etc…. After a few days of natural fine tuning, we only get notified when something actually triggers the camera. 2. Camera runs off internet connectivity so no matter how well you hide the cables - if someone cuts the broadband ingress cable of your property the camera goes ‘OFFLINE’ and you cant access the settings or footage via the app until your up and running again. The camera is still running and you can view the footage you missed once internet connectivity is restored Overall great little product, I would happily buy again and its great to see the footage from SD card stream real-time and store all previous clips on the Tapo app.

First I have to say this is the 4th TAPO camera I bought, and for a reason. I also have TC70 and C310P2 x 2 outdoor cameras. On a budget, you get very very good software, solid quality and amazing functionality. GOOD STUFF: 1. Super easy and straight forward setup. Never had an issue with this with any of the cameras from Tapo - works like clockwork. 2. Great Picture quality both day & night time. For day time you'd probably expect nowadays, but night time is really amazing. Colour night vision with 360 degree horizontal and 130 degree vertical cover. 3. Amazing and precise movement & person detection, as well as activity zones and line crossing detection. Also, there is a motion tracing option so if needed - the tracking object won't be lost out of the view. 4. Great & quick notifications including reach notifications, so you can receive not just a message but also a snapshot of person/object or action captured. 5. Great functionality and customisation in general, including: Privacy Zones & Privacy Mode, scheduling, smart actions like on/off depending if you're home, patrol mode, etc. 6. Of course it's waterproof, with IP65 rating - just be sure to install it correctly, not upside down! 7. Great customisable alarm functionality where you can adjust both sounds & light alarm. Yes, it won't wake the whole street up, but it is loud enough for a device of this size. You can even record your own voice with spicy insults to make sure no thief remains indifferent. So even if they steal - their ego will be forever damaged. 8. In terms of storage - if you need to store the recordings you can use an SD card and store for free or you have an option to subscribe and store in the cloud. It's not super expensive in this regard comparing with some other mainstream brands. 9. Great software in general that lets you build or / and unify different Tapo devices for a smart home setup. CONS / TO NOTE: - I've got good connectivity, but want to note I have a strong router. Generally any camera or wireless device will depend a lot on the router and positioning, especially considering that it hangs outside. You can test yours before hanging, especially if your setup or plan allows options. Overall, that's a quality product. Recommend & picky engineer approved. Hope that assists you in your decision-making. Cheers!

Perfect outdoor camera easy to set up and really good clear picture. I find Tapo products really good value and reliable. I have 4 cameras and 4 plugs all great and reliable I definitely recommend this camera

Works really well, easy to set up and very good wifi connection, no monthly fee, memory chips works really well, last really long
