Very effective and a great camera.
Great quality images. Perfect with playback using SD card. setting up reasonably easy but takes a little while to get the settings as you want them. Solar panel charges adequately but will see how it goes over the winter months. Motion detection good and the brightness of the 2 spotlights gives extra protection although the brighter they are the more battery you use. Look good when up. I attached it to my down pipe using a tree strap. No need for drilling and you can easily remove it if you want to.

Great camera system
This camera is really easy to set up and install. Having switched from a Blink system the quality of the Tapo camera is so much better. Picture quality is great and it doesn’t seem to suffer from false activations as much as the Blink one did. Been up a few weeks now and the panel appears to be keeping the battery topped up, and that’s in winter. Night vision is good quality as well and WiFi connectivity seems to be solid despite it being 10m away from my house. Would definitely recommend.

Impressive Camera but could be better integrated with Google Home
This camera with solar panel delivers excellent performance for the price. Installation and Setup is straightforward, requiring minimal technical expertise. The included solar panel keeps it juiced up and keeps the camera running, . The camera's motion tracking feature is good, effectively following detected movement. Image capture is sharp and clear, both during daylight and in low-light conditions. I would have loved better integration with Google home, at the moment you have to launch the tapo app, for full feature. But I am hoping this is fixed in a firmware update. Overall, this camera offers impressive functionality and value, making it a highly recommended choice for home security.

Great camera, gives peace of mind
I love this camera, it's easy to install and gives a very good picture. Solar panel, if well placed, keeps the camera battery topped up well. It's been at 100% all summer. App support has some quirks like reminding me that my car's on the drive whenever camera is viewed, or turned off and back on. Overall an excellent choice for the price, especially if you use the local storage on a hub. Just ordered a second one to cover the rear of the property.

a good camera without the need of subscription
I don t want to show pics with my area but this is very crisp and clear image, it uses Tapo home app on iPhone also can be used on Macs, the subscription is yearly up to 5 devices 25 gbp/year for basic service and for premium 53 gbp/year up to 2 devices and there is not really a difference between these services they offer the same thing which is snapshots and some ai smart detection they say BUT I ve purchased 1 micro sd card of 256gb for each camera with speed of over 150mb/s and it can record for like 2 weeks in a loop. It has very good detection without the need to pay and ai detection and very fast notifications good flood light but I don't use this also the battery it is charging really fast from 13 to 67 in 2 days if there is a bit of sun but don t cover or put it in the shadow the battery is holding up good I have 95 for 1 week. I ve tried to find a good camera for my area without breaking the bank and I think this is a good choice also it has pet, car, person, motion detection and you can choose in the app where to have the area of these for each or set once for all and it does pick up really fast cars and motion and people I don t know about pets but I think is the same fast. Please hit the helpful button if this helps you I am not paid nor sponsored in any way for this review

Smart, Maintenance-Free Security Camera
This solar security camera is very impressive; installation is easy, and the solar charging means no battery worry. The colour night vision is clear, and the motion detection works reliably. The app is intuitive and easy to set up with Alexa or Google. The only small consideration is that placement needs planning for optimal sunlight, but otherwise excellent. Highly recommended for home security especially for the price

Great
Great product. The App is also great. Uses more battery life the more people pass it, but that’s obvious. You can adjust the range sensitivity to prolong battery life. In the winter the solar energy received is about 0.5% Per day. Mine faces a busy pavement and uses about 1% battery life Per day. Would highly recommend

Was a little worried at first as it wasn't charging much but that's just Irish weather, once the sun comes out it charges quickly and during cloudy days it kinda stays the same battery. Two days back to back sun is enough to have it almost fully charged. Camera quality is great for the price. Easy to setup and install

Estou usando há pouco mais de 3 dias, porém, me impressionou a qualidade da imagem e como a configuração do app é simples e rápida! A configuração com a alexa foi tão rápida e intuitiva tbm... ela apresenta um pequeno delay de uns 4s qdo é exibido no meu fire tv stick, mas achei mto bom vendo as concorrentes q tem um delay maior...pelo aplicativo tem zero delay... A captação do áudio dela é impressionante, e a saída do som tbm é mto boa! o sensor de movimento mto bom msm à noite sem luminosidade, visão noturna mto boa tbm... Achei excelente o alarme tbm, é bem alto e vc pode configurar pra qlqr horário q vc queira se vc qser usar, e ainda pode botar com luz que fica piscando, pra assustar gente má intencionada e te alertar, o que é otimo! Recomendo muito, até então, uma excelente câmera de segurança com mtos benefícios e ainda peguei numa oferta relâmpago por 340, peguem sem medo.

Works well in clear colour. Must have a paid account to store images/data even if SD card installed.
