Great camera, memory and. Cloud support
Performance is great, video resolution is sharp and detailed. Memory performance internal and cloud works very well. Setting up WiFi was easy and reliable. App set up easy and its functions are easy to use. Also have an outdoor version for my garage.

High quality video, awesome features
I am thoroughly impressed with this camera. The quality is better than the outdoor cameras I’ve purchased for 5 tims the price. Plus the ability to pan and listen in live time is exceptional for the price. The app is super easy to use too. Highly recommended for anyone looking to add a quality phone controlled camera, and cheap enough for skeptics to try out for themselves. 🙂

Glad I picked this one!
I looked at quite a few security cameras for indoor use; I had originally heard that Wyze were the best, but I was pointed towards these since they’re made by TP-Link, and so far it hasn’t disappointed! The pet detection is likely slightly better for dogs than cats, but overall it works great and I havent had any connection issues. The camera/picture quality is as advertised, which seems rare for cameras these days, the HDR is AMAZING compared to the normal mode I have to say, even if it does warm up the camera a bit. The night vision is great, it’s easily switchable between the unnoticeable 950nm IR and the definitely-noticeable 800nm, which shows as a bright red light, and it tracks anything you want it to, pretty much. As soon as I set it to auto tracking, it was following me around as I moved across its view. It does seem to have an issue noticing my cat as a cat since she’s small, but it does notice her after a bit. The point was more so to make sure she’s undisturbed by people though, and the people-tracking works great along with the audio! If I need another camera, even just for simple monitoring or the other cats, I’ll be getting another of these.

Great Camera for the Price
Iâve been using the TP-Link Tapo Pan/Tilt Security Camera as a baby monitor, and overall, itâs a fantastic product. The picture quality is clear, both during the day and at night, and the pan/tilt function lets me see the whole room easily. Itâs quick and simple to set up through the app, and I love that I can check on my baby from anywhere.
The motion detection works well and sends timely notifications, which is a huge plus for peace of mind. I also use it as a pet camera, and itâs been reliable for keeping an eye on my dog during the day.
The only reason I didnât give it five stars is the slight delay in loading the live view at times, but itâs not a huge issue. For the price, itâs a fantastic option with plenty of features that work smoothly. Highly recommend for parents or pet owners looking for a solid, budget-friendly camera!

Love it
I got this to watch my cats to see which one was being naughty. It’s great. Very clear picture, great night vision and a notification ever time. I’ve had it for a few weeks and no complaints. We worth the money.
Amazon Customer –
Top quality security camera
I love these cameras. Ordered one, then ordered two more for other areas in my house. Picture/ video quality is amazing. My daughter is replacing her cameras with these when she saw the quality of the pictures and video. She has also recommended them to her co workers.
Very easy to set up. Thereâs a one second lag time if you activate talk. No big deal – I think thatâs how they all are.

Love the features
Night vision.. Pan and tilt. Tracking. Motion detection and identification. Recording. All work extremely well and I love that there’s no requirement of a subscription fee. Recommend this highly.

Great for surveillance
I’ve used this for a few months now. It works as described and I will keep it for surveillance as it does alert me of movement even if I am not subscribed to them. I don’t prefer subscriptions.
Lag: There is very noticeable lag on video feedback.
Sound quality: It is good enough for usage purposes.
Video quality: It is good enough for usage purposes.
Security: I do like that there is night and day settings to use in the dark. The camera rotates 360° and has settings you can save to rotate back to a specified position. The rotating of the camera is pretty audible.
Value: I got it on sale so I would say it is worth it. If you don’t want to subscribe, you can just use a memory card.

Iâm really happy with this camera! Bought it for kids room . The video quality is excellent, with clear images both during the day and at night. The night vision works well, so I can check on my kids without disturbing their sleep. The audio is also very clear, allowing me to hear even the slightest sounds.
The connection is stable, and the range is impressiveâI can move around the house without losing signal. I also love the additional features like two-way audio, temperature monitoring, and motion detection. It gives me peace of mind knowing I can always keep an eye on kids
Setup was quick and easy, and the app is user-friendly. Overall, this is a fantastic monitor with great features and reliability. Highly recommend!

El diseño compacto y discreto de la cámara permite instalarla en cualquier parte de la casa sin que resulte intrusiva. Su capacidad de giro añade un valor significativo, ya que puede cubrir un área más amplia asà como basarse en el movimiento para grabar. Esta función asegura que no se pierdan eventos importantes y permite revisar las grabaciones cuando sea necesario. Las notificaciones instantáneas en el móvil son un gran plus, ya que alertan sobre cualquier actividad sospechosa.
La conectividad Wi-Fi es generalmente estable, pero puede presentar problemas si la señal de la red es débil, la transmisión en vivo puede volverse inestable, lo que puede ser frustrante si se desea monitorear en tiempo real. RecomendarÃa asegurarse de tener una red WiFi de buena calidad para optimizar el uso de esta cámara.
La aplicación móvil es muy fácil de usar, con una interfaz intuitiva que permite acceder a las grabaciones, ajustar configuraciones y ver la transmisión en vivo sin complicaciones siempre y cuando tengas puesta una tarjeta microSD o cuentes con el servicio de Tapo Care.

Por experiencia, no solo es comprar cámara porque es barata, lo mas importante es comprar una marca reconocida que sabes que es reconocida porque eso te asegura que te están ofreciendo calidad, soporte y actualizaciones, de nada sirve una cámara barata pero que la marca no brinde actualizaciones.
En este caso, la marca TP Link es una marca muy buena que tienen otros productos que te ofrecen muy buena tecnologÃa.
Yo elegà esta marca porque dentro de la misma App no solamente puedo agregar la cámara, si no que también puedo añadir diferentes tipos de sensores, de movimiento, de puerta y ventana, de temperatura, puedo añadir focos inteligentes, enchufes inteligentes, trae la opción de agregar robot aspirador, y eso es lo importante, controlar todo eso desde una sola app.
La calidad de los materiales de la cámara 10 de 10, la calidad de la imagen 10 de 10, el sensor de la cámara es muy buena, con poca luz se ve muy iluminada la imagen, trae visión nocturna con dos tipos de led infrarrojo, un infrarrojo nuestro ojo puede ver el led rojito encendido, pero el otro infrarrojo es inperceptible al ojo. Al video le puedes modificar los FPS hasta un máximo de 30fps… Soporta una micro sd de 512gb para grabación, la grabación puede ser programada solamente cuando detecte movio oooo, puede tener grabación continua sin limite de tiempo, lo que se graba dependerá de la memoria que le pongas, si se llena la memoria te da la opción que en automático se reescriba el video, y lo mejor de la cámara es la Inteligencia Artificial, sabe diferenciar entre animales, carros, personas, tiene seguimiento de objetivo, se puede programar que si detecta una persona y tienes un foco inteligente de la misma marca, cuando detecta la persona puede hacer que en automático prenda el foco, y si hay mas dispositivos compatibles se pueden programar muchas funciones mas.
Tiene modo privacidad, que lo que hace es ocultar la cámara.
En fin, hay muchas funciones y acciones inteligentes que se le pueden programar.
Lo uuuunico que no me gustó tanto es que al moverse los motores internos para girar la cámara se escucha el sonido de los engranes, es lo único que no me gustó, el resto es excelente.
Cualquier cámara de la marca te da muy buenas prestaciones, solo que entre mas cara la cámara te brinda mejores prestaciones y mas calidad de imagen.
Yo la agarré en oferta, como a $890 y algo, sube y baja el precio aquà en Amazon.
Recomendada la marca TP-Link tanto como la cámara Tapo
