C310 2K 3MP Wired Security Camera Outdoor, Motion Detection, IP66, Built-in Siren, 2-Way Audio, Night Vision, Cloud and Local Storage, Works With Alexa and Google, No Monthly Fee

Firstly I have to mention Amazon Prime delivery, ordered 3pm delivered 8pm same day! 👏👏 The camera is easy (ISH) to setup, once you've registered with a TP link account you can share access to it with other registered users/family etc. The picture quality is very good, installation is also easy with options including a magnetic mount. The solar panel is very good at keeping the battery topped up. Recommended 👍

My second tapo camera. 1st set up on wifi, second hard wired. Either option is working really well. You can run these without having to pay for a storage plan by using a micro sim. Very easy to set up and picture quality is excellent. Infra red recordings when dark , therefore black and white when dark. Easy to set up recording boundaries. Notifications excellent, within 5 seconds of video capture.

My initial concern before I bought this kit was battery charge during the winter and waterproof. Guess what' ever since I bought this, which is like 4 months now, it's always got full charge every day. And this was during the winter Nov to March. Perhaps its the location of the garden getting enough sunshine everyday. And I've never had any problem with water ingress into the kit. The camera has got excellent picture quality, senses movement without any problem. It is so easy and straight forward to install. Though pairing the camera with my phone, in order to set it up proved a little bit of a challenge. But that could be because I have an S9 plus Samsung phone which was 6 years old. When I initial bought it, you could not connect this camera to use the Tapo Hub memory, which came with my Tapo camera front doorbell. However, 2 months later, an update allowed the use of the Hub. But I've already bought the memory card anyway. Perhaps they should have released the software update before I spent 32quid on memory card I'm no more using. The Tapo app is one of the reasons why this kit is an experience. Navigating through the app is so easy and uncomplicated. Overall, this is a good kit in terms of quality, performance, robustness and full waterproof. I wish I knew and had gotten this camera years ago.

Having already gotten a Tapo smart doorbell, I decided to buy this surveillance camera due to the fact that there are management-owned bushes growing outside my front door that blocks the view of my doorbell camera and needed a CCTV of the place from overhead. This CCTV camera was better than I expected. If you have a flat metallic surface on the outside of your house, it will facilitate the installation process. The camera's mount serves as a magnetic base for both the camera and the metallic surface you wish to attach it to. Fortunately for me, there is a large strip of metal directly above my door, so I was able to get away with the easy installation route. Because I set up this device without its included solar panel, this means the camera's power depends entirely on its built-in battery, which does last for quite some time. For me, it lasts roughly a month between recharges. I live in a gated community where my neighbours would occasionally walk their dogs or kids would play about in my area, so it would naturally run down the battery due to multiple detections per day. With the 4K quality and Starlight AI Sensor, you can practically see anything you want to in clear view, even at night without having to turn to IR. The quality is good, but I would not expect to have the camera set to record in 4K, as a higher video resolution is guaranteed to take up storage much quicker. Thankfully, the Tapo app has a feature where you can loop record (automatically remove old footage and store in new footage simultaneously), but I'd rather have as much saved footage as possible, just in case. This camera comes with floodlights and a speaker. The floodlights are great - they can illuminate anything within 5 to 10 meters, and with the camera settings, can even be used as flashing lights whenever a person or a thing is detected within range. Frankly, the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired - one would have to practically shout to be audible. However, I personally bought this device to serve as a surveillance camera, so the sound doesn't really matter to me at all. The speaker can be used for two-way talking and siren blaring, which depends entirely on the user's preferences. Because this camera operates entirely on a magnetic mount, I would highly recommend this camera to be mounted well beyond people's reach. The camera has a SD card slot for video storage. If anybody swipes this camera, your goose is cooked. There is a service called Tapo Care where it can cloud-store unlimited footage for you, but if you'd rather save your money and depend on SD storage, then keep this thing out of people's reach. With all that said, the only downside to this device I personally had was the lagtime to access live and stored footage, particularly during the daytime. Sometimes, it would take at least 10 seconds to gain access. Sometimes, I wouldn't even be able to gain access at all. I found out the only remedy to this was to get an outdoors Wi-Fi extender, which helped significantly.

Great little out door security cameras. Ended up with 2 + the tapo 200 Hub. Even on a dedicated 2.4ghz wifi I was having issues with them staying connected. Set ip through the camera and the router + made sure they were in high performance and mostly fixed it. But ended up with the hub for a internal doorbell chime Video quality is good. Good detection range. They say 90 days battery life. I'm probably around half that. Did a full charge before putting it out. Got to 18% after 47 days. It is in high performance mode with long clips enabled. It does go off quite a lot. I am not sure if the hub gives it any better battery but the connection is definitely superior It has also been very cold and it was covered in snow so can't fault it. I like the tapo stuff also have smart plugs door bell and internal cameras. Good brand. Seems all good so far! Plus renting so cannot run any cables

Brilliant camera's, well worth the money. Easy to set up. Bought three and getting another.

Brilliant product, easy setup and well worth buying. The power lead is a little short but I made it work but if you have a long run then you may need to buy and extension lead which seems readily available. I would absolutely recommend this product.

Good to use

Compré esta cámara principalmente para poder ver qué tal estaba mi mascota cuando estoy fuera de casa y estoy encantado con el resultado. Decir que yo la he usado sin adquirir ningún tipo de plan de pago para guardar grabaciones en la nube. Simplemente el dispositivo, una SD y listo. Es muy fácil de instalar y configurar con la aplicación del teléfono móvil. Una vez hecho, desde el móvil podemos conectarnos de forma remota y controlarla para que gire tanto en su horizontal (izquierda y derecha) como en su vertical (arriba y abajo), además de poder hacer barridos en estas direcciones. Cabe destacar que la cámara debe estar conectada a la red wifi. Además, la alimentación es por red eléctrica (y no con baterías, por lo que debe estar relativamente cerca de un enchufe). En cuanto a la transmisión de imagen, desde la aplicación podemos ampliar la imagen, tomar fotografías, guardar vídeos (aunque necesitamos un plan de pago en la nube o que hayamos instalado una tarjeta SD en la cámara para poder hacerlo. Si no lo tenemos, podemos directamente sacar captura de pantalla o grabar la pantalla del móvil). La propia cámara tiene sensores y puedes establecer que cuando detecte movimiento te mande una notificación al móvil. Además, tiene micrófono y altavoz incorporado, de manera que existe la opción hablar desde el móvil para que se escuche por la cámara (se escucha realmente bien). Esto puede hacerse en modo enviar audio (siempre que quieras hablar aprietas el botón y el resto del tiempo no transmite audio) o llamada (estará transmitiendo audio todo el rato que esté la llamada activa). Cuenta también con visión nocturna y he de decir, que para el precio que tiene esta cámara, se ve realmente bien. Me dejó sorprendido. En general, es un buen producto. En mi caso, para echarle un ojo a mi mascota funciona genial. Estoy muy contento con la compra. Gracias por leerme! Espero que mi reseña te haya servido de ayuda.

Pełny zestaw, jestem pod wrażeniem ❤️👌

Amazing product for the money. Picture as good as it gets in this price range. Superb app and easy to install.
