5.0 out of 5 stars I love it
Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2024
I must say that this camera has surpassed my expectations in terms of reliability and clarity, especially for its price. I was pleasantly surprised as I was initially expecting a lower quality product. I purchased it to keep an eye on my pets while I'm at work, and it has gone above and beyond what I had hoped for. The view is outstanding and I am able to communicate through it as well. After using it for a year, it continues to work flawlessly without any issues. I can easily interact with my pets from anywhere with an internet connection. If you are in search of a budget-friendly camera that is high-quality, simple to set up and operate, I wholeheartedly recommend this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best quality/price camera
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2024
I am thoroughly impressed with it! The installation process was very easy and straightforward, and I was up and running in no time. The image quality is fantastic and I love how the camera range is designed to leave minimum blind spots. The motion detection feature works great and I've been able to receive alerts whenever there is any activity detected in the area that I'm monitoring.

One of the things that I particularly appreciate about this camera is the microphone's sensitivity. It picks up sounds really well, and I am able to hear everything that's going on in the area I'm monitoring. Additionally, the night vision is a really nice feature, as it provides clear images even in low light conditions.

Finally, I have to give a shoutout to the app - it's incredibly intuitive and user-friendly, making it very easy to navigate even for someone who is new to the world of home security cameras. Overall, I highly recommend the TP-Link Tapo camera to anyone looking for an easy-to-use, high-quality security camera for their home or office.

Highly recommend this camera. Easy set up and works like a dream. Bought this to be able to monitor my sleep, anytime I move the tiniest bit at night the camera begins recording and documents it on a timeline schedule. Then I’m able to review exactly what time and the video footage of movement throughout the night. Great connection with live feed through the app, no matter where you are. Very customizable with alerts or detections. Highly recommend purchasing an SD card though. I’m very pleased with this system.

Do you need a camera to monitor part of the house, the garage, the pets? Do you have a plug nearby? Then this camera is great. It's not the highest res, but 1080P is very clear and does a good job with night vision even though there are not a lot of IR lights around it. It has a decent amount of rotation and tilt to be able to monitor a pretty wide area.

Setup, was a little quirky. you first connect your phone to the cameras wifi. Then you set the camera to detect the home wifi router, putting in the 2.4ghz password. If that completes, you're pretty much on your way. If not, you have to repeat this step a couple of times, which happened to me. At first i wasn't too sure of the setup routine as it wouldn't complete the setup. Another irritation is, it will say your microsd car isn't useable. You need to use the tapo app to format the sd card once the phone app and camera are setup, and it should be fine. The phone app lets you take a picture, lets you record and stop recording. What i dont know yet, is it recording per schedule, or recording when you hit the record button while viewing? I will have to check into that, but you get a scheduler like most security cams, with normal recording schedule and motion schedule. It comes with a mount bracket to mount on wall or someplace. I just have it on a desk so i can point it down at where my dog sleeps. You can pan it around and the 1080p picture is clear in daylight and infrared at night. If the setup worked a little better i'd give this 5 stars because the price is great.

So if you need a small camera, that you can just place somewhere in the house in range of your 2.4ghz router, this works and was somewhat easy to set up. 4stars for now, but 5 star price.

i'm updating review since i just bought my 3rd tapo camera. So connection setup must have been fixed somewhat as i was able to set up on first try. It's still the same though as i mentioned above. What i didn't mention, is that there is a normal recording schedule which records continuously and a motion recoring schedule which only records when it detects movement. So when you go to play back you will only see snippets of recording if you only selected motion. They added a lot of features which requires some sort of subscription, like i do not use cloud, i dont like my home being stored online. I dont use advanced (subscribed) features like they can send you emails with snapshot for different triggers (movement, person, baby) but you will pay for this email service. It does have notifications though for free and it is just a text msg saying a detection happened, which is good enough for me. Also with other cameras you can filter sections of the screen out, that it wont trigger a notification. This works well unless you follow mode which the camera will try to follow the movement and then the filtered section will now filter areas you didn't want to. So take that into consideration. Still giving this a 5 for the price of the camera.

I haven’t used them that much but this is so easy to set up. The sound quality and motion detection are very great attributes. The quality of the video is 1080p which is very good. Great bang for your buck.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great camera when using Tapo app -- Alexa controls some but not every feature.
Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2024
We love this camera for checking in our our baby. We can see her using our phone or Echo Show. The quality of the image is great for a security camera. The night vision works well. The camera is cute. I can pan and zoom the camera using the Tapo or Kasa app on my phone from anywhere. It will alert us if someone moves in the room or if she cries (not helpful in our place, but cool). You could also talk to your child/dog/family from your phone to the camera if you wanted.

I can ask Echo Show to show me the camera hands-free which is one of our main wants: to ask to see the baby while we are in the kitchen. This feature is so nice. It's like being Captain Kirk. Unfortunately, Alexa won't pan the camera using voice commands, so we have to open the Tapo app with our fingers and pan the camera if she is crawling around.

It's a great camera for a great price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best indoor camera yet!
Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2024
I’ve tried about a dozen brands of indoor cameras … and these Tapo C220 are so simple to set up… and function so well. The software is great too as it lets you set up all the cameras to show on a single screen like a professional anti-crime network. I can’t believe how little I paid for this professional setup. 5 Stars!
