    No Subscription + Great Quality and Features

    Depending on your internet it can go up to 2k resolution if not moving or rotating. Has a near 360 rotation, so will have to rotate all the way around to see its rear. Records any or specific detections if you enable it. Has a night vision mode. Can be ceiling mounted and flip camera view for ceiling view. Also has a Mic feature but it isn’t a clear messaging audio as calling through phone or other internet services, has a warble effect enough where pets won’t recognize who or what is talking. Only con I can think of is the cord needing a plug to connect to- and the shortness of the cord. Cord is roughly 6 feet in length, going from floor to ceiling is most of length already. Please ignore the mess and enjoy a picture of the pets at home without anyone home. Great way to keep track and see they aren’t making a mess.

    A MUST BUY!

    ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! I didn't expect much because it was on sale at 50% off, so I bought the last 2. I would purchase at full price if I had to do it all over again! For the price, the clarity and images are surprisingly clear, and "ALL" the bells and whistles are a steal! I finally found out it was my Morkie Chloe, and not Kai, being so mischievous while I was at work lol. I apologize Kai. I love that I can chastise them (talk) in real time lol. The camera also pans 360° degrees so it catches and records their every little move, which helps me find my socks and other things they hide around the house hah. It even alerts me when they make movements such as jumping out of bed (pictured) and going into another room. I recommended purchasing these cameras big time, because this is MY personal testimony!!! 10 stars and 2 thumbs and 8 fingers up for me! And, last but not least, the setup was easy peasy! (5 minutes tops if that!) What else? Oh yeh, the night mode can even catch a ninja in the act! OMG the list goes on guys! No wires, just plug it in and let Tapo do its thing! Thanks, you guys have been great!
