Tapo TP-Link 4MP 2K QHD (2560X1440) Outdoor CCTV Security Wi-Fi Smart Camera -Alexa Enabled -Weatherproof -Full Color Starlight Night Vision -2-Way…

Storage card support: Absolutely pathetic. It seems the camera deliberately stops detecting external storage card after working for few days. If you are lucky, rebooting remotely will detect card again and will work for few days and then it just stops detecting again, other times you will have to manually re-insert the storage device in order for camera to detect it again. No warnings are given when it stops detecting internal storage unless you check it manually, so you lose critical recordings without even you being aware of it. I had to manually go and re-insert card to reset it. (JFYI: there was no issue with storage card as I had tested it with other devices and it worked flawlessly). I think its the framework that does it to frustate customer and force them to switch to their cloud storage services so they can make money even after selling device.

Night vision: Only works when there is external light source. In pitch black when you turn on camera lights, it actually makes vision blurry and can’t see anything clearly. Also in such cases the vision is limited to small distance. Even with external light source, the vision is still average. The color vision during night is good but I would still prefer clarity over better colors. I would rather advice to get a camera with IR in case the area you are targetting has little or no light source.

Motion detection: Average. Sure it detects motion but sometimes it just generalize particular events (person, animals) into a fast motion. Unless you manually go to that timeline and watch the feed, you might miss on important events as it doesn’t detect them properly. Other cheaper alternatives available on market provides similar motion/object detection AI capabilities, so not worth spending this amount of money.

Overall quality: It’s average. Zoom quality is good, but only during day time, during nights is limited to certain distance and that too if there is no motion. Other cheaper alternatives does provide same or better quality of clarity during night with fewer issues. I would suggest to get a better IP camera with NVR storage rather than getting trapped with these kind of products.

After using 4 months and 4 times rain on it. It is working very well. Also its video and audio quality us very good. Night vision is very effective. I am using 32 Gb SD card, it gives me 28 days storage. But sometime connectivity is not good. Sometime it connects rapidly and some time, it takes very long time.

Excellent camera with a sturdy build quality. The optional rtsp stream allows easy integration with frigate and home assistant. tapo app is great and detects the canera instantly and playback options are great with both cloud and sd card options available. The picture quality is excellent and multiple angles are possible due to the PTZ support. Calling functionality is also available. Overall value for money.

コンセントまでの距離が長かったため、延長コードを買い足して使っています。画像も綺麗で良いです。
