Great product at a great price - does what it says and the picture quality is as described.The setup was easy and no fuss.

I have a studio at the bottom of my garden it's a long way from the house. I have things in it I would hate to loose although the garden is secure I wanted a little extra reassurance and this so far fits the bill. The unit looks the part and would not look out of place in a modern house. The power lead is a suitable length and I found I needed no extention. I would have preferred it if the power lead was the same colour as the unit .black lead white unit ?. I wont go into detail about set up there are enough videos on you tube to get you out of difficulty. Setting up was easy enough ,I like the fact you can pan and tilt the camera to cover the room. I like the talk over ability it would deter anyone being told your uploading their images to social media. Not so sure about the alert thing. I had two alerts and nothing there. I know what your thinking mice, but I dont think so. I'm a bit of a cover every angle sort of person and have a movement alarm in the studio. I know it's working as when I panned the room the movement set it off. So it meant a swift move to my studio to turn it off before annoying my neighbor's. I will check the settings to see if it can be turned down. I have had this sort of camera before and I can honestly say this seems better than those that have gone before it. Main points great clear picture , having the ability to move the camera remotely makes the unit stand out among others you can get. Being able to talk to dog,baby,burgulars is also handy. The night vision is really good virtually as good as daylight. Easy to set up and the app works well. The only two grumbles I have and they are not game changers, I would have liked the power lead to be the same colour as the unit. Not an issue for my studio but if I was using it in the house I would buy a matching lead. The other is alerts two alerts nothing there that could become annoying and could cause you not to check alerts,(remember the story of the boy who cried wolf). To end on a good note this unit is incredible for its low price tag . It does so much more than others out there costing a lot more. It seems I was premature with my review . I just wish I would sometimes listen to my own advice . If a product and price looks to good to be true it usually is, now yet again been suckered into buying a mugs eyeful. Like an idiot I believed what the ad said works with up to a 128 ad card. It doesnt I purchased a high speed card specifically for this camera that is now as redundant as the so called security camera. Call me strange but if someone breaks in and you cannot record them no evidence . I thought that is the purpose of any security camera. Without a recording you have nothing to tell bill about other than you have been burgled you can do that without spending 24 of your English pounds . I'm going to have to contact amazon as I have no idea how to send this as long as your looking at it security camera back.as I'm on shielding. And before anyone jumps in and says do this do that. I have done the fixes same result the camera has a problem with the ad card. I think its to cameras that have the problem. It's about as much use as a an allotment in Chernobyl. Yet again another amazon useless purchase. Having written a good review and then edit it to complain about not being able to record I have to eat humble pie and apologise to the seller. I asked the Amazon community if anyone has managed to format the ad card. And many got back to me and once it was explained the card was easily formatted for use in the camera. So my original ramblings stand . It's a very good camera with great features .

So far this camera has meet my needs/ expectations perfectly. So much as just bought a second one.Set up is easy for someone with basic know how, instructions are clear and work.I bought this as have a rat/ rats in my loft and cavity walls. And could hear them most nights, yet my baited cages and glue boards remained empty. I didn’t want to buy a big cctv system as I’ve had one before which eventually failed and don’t see the point in spending hundreds just to confirm I have rats in my loft and see what they’re upto. After 48hours this camera has shown me where it came in and what it’s doing, also know where to move the cage to. I have a 64g Samsung micro sd card. Set to permanently record using about 6g for 24hours.Using the pan/tilt allows for precise adjustment for area to be recorded.I am able to view live and recorded video via the tapo app on both iPad and android phone, either connected to Wi-fi or 4g when away from home.I didn’t receive a movement notification when rat appeared however I had customised notification times and this fell outside of timesBut a rat is fairly small, it did pick my kids up when and notify me when tested in the house. I have now set notifications to always so it may work now. Not a problem if it doesn’t as you can scroll through playback to any point and then watch at 2x, 4x,8x even 16x speed. Even slow motion 1/2 1/4 1/8 &1/16.All in all a very good camera for its money. Once you have it in position you don’t need to go near it again.I did briefly use the 2 way talk, and siren which works, talk had a minimal delay but this is not the reason for purchase so not an issue.I don’t think telling the rats to **** off is going to be effective.If your looking for a camera to use as a indoor/dry area monitor with fairly good picture quality, this is it.The sound from recording and talk didn’t seem amazing however I briefly used it, but would say it’s on par with a baby monitor. All be it this is so much cheaper.I’ve only had this for 48hrs. Not sure of how long this will last but seems well made. Enough for me to buy another.Also worth noting the app can have 32 cameras paired to it, to scroll through like a proper cctv kitCame with 3 pin mains plug about 3m length

Edit: Still a great camera, but taking off a star because it consistently recognises cats as humans for some reason. I think tapo need to do some work on their AI algorithms.This is such a brilliant little camera. Incredible value for money.I use it outdoors and it's performed flawlessly so far. Accurate detections, super fast notifications, put an sd card in and you'll have everything you need in a budget security camera.Mounting it was so simple with the excellent magnetic base. The app is easy & intuitive to use.So far I can't think of a single negative aspect. Maybe if I'm being very picky I'd like a slightly wider field of view, but I believe the slightly more expensive C125 version offers that (although that camera is indoor use only).If you need an indoor/outdoor camera that is reliable and effective, just buy this. You won't regret it. Brilliant.

Good quality indoor camera. Easy to set up and connect ti the Tapo app. I have other Tapo camera (outdoor) and this works well in the app. The design is unobtrusive and easy to set privacy modes etc when you are in the house. Connects quickly to WiFi and to the app. Definitely a great addition to home security set up.

Using mine outside in the garden. Great coverage. Nice and compact. Quick response when been alerted .Great picture quality for what i require. Great that you can also add memory card rather then subscribe to the monthly subscription. Easy to install and connect to the app. App is easy to use. Very reasonably priced.
