Great camera at a reasonable price
This camera works really well. I use it indoors to keep an eye on my two cats. The app works like a champ. It’s pans and tracks motion and the picture is very good. There is a talk button so you can say hi to your pets. If you’re using it for security reasons I’d go for the higher resolution model so you can zoom in and have a clearer image. I couldn’t be happier. Does exactly what I need it to

Excellent Camera – Outstanding Performance and Reliability!
Excellent Camera – Outstanding Performance and Reliability!I’ve been using this TP-Link Tapo C500 for several weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed with its performance. This camera has truly exceeded my expectations in every way.The 360° pan/tilt functionality is seamless and responsive, giving me complete visibility around my outdoor space. The 1080P resolution is crystal clear, making it easy to identify details even from a distance. The motion tracking feature works flawlessly—it automatically follows movement and captures exactly what I need to see.The night vision is outstanding. I was skeptical at first, but the infrared capability delivers sharp, detailed footage even in complete darkness. The AI detection features are remarkably accurate, effectively filtering out false alerts and only notifying me when it matters.Setup was incredibly straightforward, and the integration with both Alexa and Google Home adds wonderful convenience to my smart home system. I love being able to check my camera feed from anywhere using the app, and the cloud and SD card storage options give me peace of mind knowing my footage is secure.Reliability has been exceptional—this camera has performed flawlessly in various weather conditions, with no hiccups. The build quality feels solid and well-designed for outdoor use.I highly recommend this camera to anyone looking for a dependable, high-quality security solution. It’s a fantastic investment that delivers real value. If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate—this camera is absolutely worth it!Five stars, all the way!

Super Cool Camera – Easy Setup and Great Quality
This is the best camera I’ve ever had. Well, I haven’t had many lol, but I’d rate it 10/10. It records 24/7, unlike other cameras, and it detects people, animals, and motion. The quality is excellent. Installation was very easy, and the Tapo system is simple to use. I can even talk through the camera. I use them with an SD card, it’s easier to access the videos than paying for the Tapo subscription. I ended up buying more cameras and even gave one to my mom for her house. Great product!

Fantastic cameras!
These cameras are fantastic! Great picture quality, features and performance, plus they are easy to setup with the app. I was also able to easily set them up for use with my NVR system. The only reason I did not give them 5 stars is because you cannot change the rtsp port on them so that you can port forward for remote viewing without using their app.

How products work –
Says outdoor camera yet has an adapter plug in ??
Update 9 mths later this camera has worked great I wish it could be wired in, but it requires an outlet to plug it in, I still have 2 of these at the back of my home and it catches most everything outside and the address card works great as well, you can takes pictures and video of the video itself and it has a faster speed to review all the action quicker, it works well remotely when I am away to see what’s going on at home, this has provided me peace of mind while I have been away a lot this year. Highly recommended, I wish it had a light that would stay on like my other camera I ordered from another company but overall it’s really great!These have been great cameras they do lose connection freq but usually will connect back on there own sometimes, I like the functional saved position options also the talk back features capture features like most cameras now but these are good with clarity at nite I can’t get the flood lights to work. Overall happy with them the sd card captures footage and loopsRecommendedI’m confused,I thought I was buying a hard wired camera that I could hard wire into my porch light for now to use as security camera, and it came with a plug ??How is this an outdoor camera as instructions say to not get plug wet etc and should be plugged in indoors,Disappointed that there are no bright flood lights like my other cameras from other brands less expensive, and it does not seem to have a color option and seems to be only black and white, the nite vision was ok and has a good distance however the alarm strobe light is useless imo as it is a tiny light that blinks, the alarm on high volume is too low, the adapter plug has a 10ft thin cord it has sd option like all the other cameras do and 2 way talk, it says, have not tested that yet, but cannot find a color option all cameras have this now so I do not see why this one doesn’t, I am going to test it for the next 25 days and if it doesn’t function well will return it I guess, but I wish they would be more clear about how it is called an outdoor camera yet instructions says not to get adapter wet, set up was not difficult, they all work the same, the Alexa app has it listed as Alexa compatible and I linked it to the app, but overall compared to one I bought that has dual cameras on one for only 16.00 I do t think it is better or worth the extra $It doesn’t detect things as I think it should we tested it multiple times, I put sensitivity up high . Either way it’s a disappointment when I thought I could wire it into my porch light wiring.So far it is working well has good night vision and even tho black and white and has no flood lights etc it serves it’s purpose and tracks motion very well .

Câmera com imagem muito boa e bons recursos. Aplicativo Tapo é ótimo, funciona bem e não tem propagandas. Pelo valor poderia ter zoom ótico.
