Tapo 2K Outdoor Wired Pan/Tilt Security Wi-Fi Camera, 360° View, Motion Tracking, Works w/Alexa & Google Home, Color Night Vision, Free AI Detection, Cloud & SD Card Storage(up to 512GB), Tapo C510W

This is an amazing surveillance camera for the price! Set up was easy and intuitive and everything functioned as it should right from set up to in use. I've put off installing cameras for a long time because it was going to take at least six fixed cameras to give the coverage this one camera offers. Including making my own somewhat complicated mounting bracket to gain optimum coverage, it was up and running in three hours. Color is excellent and night vision is unbelievably good!

This Tp Link/Kaza/Tapo Camera is very useful.To install in a place not close to an outlet. I just drilled a small hole in the wall of my garage and ran the long thin electical cord through it to a nearby outlet inside. This camera has an ethernet plug but seems to have a fairly long wifi reach so that works fine even though my router isnt that close to the camera. There is no subriction needed for any of the functions. You will want a larger micro sd card for recordings. I also have a TP link wired doorbell to go with it. Both work on the Tapo app. I have some smart TP link devices such as light switches and outlets installed in my home so this makes it nice to have everything on one app. I was also surprised that all these were still connected after years of not thinking about using them. Tp link/Tapo make very stable no hassle devices in my opinion.

Works amazing, had to turn off some of the features due to the amount of notifications. We live on a busy road so tracking cars and general movement was a mistake on my part. The color and sound quality are amazing, even at night. We have recommended it to several people already. Super easy to install, the set up on the phone took more time honestly. Super easy to use though.

I have been in the market for a decent camera for quite some time. Years even. Finally, it appears I found one that deliversI tried many many brands of cameras. The vast majority of them being other cheaper off- brand cameras. Most of them didn’t work right out of the box to failing just under a year of use. Most apps were clunky at best.Enter Tapo cameras. Easy to set up. Great app features. The Tapo app is extremely easy to understand and is thoughtfully designed. Tp-link actually manufactures the Tapo products. And TP-Link has been a very reputable brand over the years.The cameras themselves are good. Good clarity and great night time vision. I appreciate the ability to insert a physical micro sd card for video storage. You aren’t forced into some cloud service for that ability (although it is available if you want it). And yes, you can access all of the sd card footage from the app.There are only a couple of quibbles I have with these. If power goes out, the cameras do need to be manually adjusted back to their “home” position once power is restored. It would be infinitely helpful if there was an actual “home position” setting to commit the cameras to. So they will go back to this position in the event of a power outage. It’s annoying because all of your settings pretty much rely on this home position to function as desiredThe other quibble is if the WiFi ever changes the cameras have to be removed from your app and re-added to change what WiFi they are connected to. There really should be a WiFi change option in the app to handle this easily.Other than those two things I really appreciate how well these work. The motion tracking option isn’t bad (it’s not great though often moving too slow to keep up with the target). But it does move fast enough to keep the target within the field of view longer than a stationary camera would.The alarm function is nifty too. Set on a schedule (I have mine set at night) it will produce any number of variables like flashing lights and alert sirens if it detects people in the area. Good little feature to have to scare away someone if they think they just set off an alarm. Alternatively you can upload your own sound clip if you want verbal feedback towards your intended target.All in all these are great cameras. Now to see how they function in the long term.EDIT: After writing this review, I found in the app that you can set up to 3 different views for each camera as sort of a "pre-set". So, this makes it slightly less combersome to move the cameras back to the home position should they need to be manually moved back after a power outage.Also it's noteworthy to mention that shadows will set these cameras off no matter what the sensitivity settings are set to. So, on windy days the cameras are all over the place trying to chase the shadows. Also, this prevents them from returning back to the "home" position. Speaking of how they move, they are super clunky in their movements. Making motion tracking difficult for them to keep up with anything moving slower than a slow walk. I think the tracking should be sped up for this. Also, motion tracking does not work if motion is turned off. So if you just want it to track "people" it can't. Seems like an easy thing to implement if you want to void shadow tracking and only want people to be tracked.EDIT2: Just thought I would update my review to include more information after having the cameras for a bit now. I have now turned motion tracking off. The reason being is that, as time goes on they get worse at moving to track anything. They also randomly get stuck in the field of view when tracking something and then start erroneously tracking everything all over the place after that. Never returning to the home position. So, what you get is eventually the camera will drift so far away from home position you will often get the camera just looking at the ground or up in the air somewhere until you manually re-adjust them back yourself. I knocked off a star for this as it's a feature that seems to be more of a gimmick than a real useful function. I really do home they can update the firmware and app to make this feature more useful in the future.

I have loved this camera for my horse’s stall. It connects easily to WiFi. Clear picture in color during the day and IR at night. Decent audio. Good playback options, including option for SD card if you want to review continuous playback. I also love that you can save certain views as presets and switch the camera view easily between them just clicking a button instead of manually panning each time. I would buy this camera again!

Great product and easy to set up. Once you set it, you can monitor your property as you wish. I have 4 cameras on the outside of my house and I feel pretty secure. We had over 21 inches of rain back in April and the cameras survived with no problem. I highly recommend them if you want cameras on your property. However, order them before the tariffs kick in.

This camera was very easy to set up and the image is super clear. The camera sends a message every time motion is detected and getting to the recording on my phone is very easy too. The user has the ability to add more cameras, I will be purchasing a second one.
