    I was able to connect these to my wifi even though they are outside. (I've had other products (birdfeeder) which couldn't do that.) There's no way that the battery will last the 300 days. I'll probably get 2-3 months and then they'll need to be recharged. They're attached via magnet, so if they're within arms reach, someone could just grab it and walk away with it. At least you'll get them on camera doing it. I'm quite happy with the purchase.

    Only 3 weeks in but at this point I'm very happy with my purchase. Everything was easy to set up. Cameras and battery life seem good. I bought after my neighbor who has had them for quite a while recommend them to me.

    These cameras were easy to hookup and install. Notifications for motion is instant and the video quality is high. You do not need to pay for a subscription to save your videos, I just bought a memory chip. I highly recommend these cameras.

    Easy to set up, easy to use. Works well. Battery lasts adequately. The only nit pick would that you can't record footage from all cameras to one SD card.

    These were very easy to set up. Easy adjustments for detection sensitivity for each type of movement, ie pets, people cars. Clear picture at night even after dark. The magnetic base is great for tweaking the direction and angle of view and for allowing easy removal for charging and then replacement. I like the wireless connection and where recording is done in the camera but can be accessed by your phone using the Tapo app.

    I've ben using several other brands of cameras for the past few years and some of them were good as long as they lasted. So I decided to try these. They were on sale so I bought and placed them around the house. So far they are working well.

    These are good quality cameras and easy to install. I added SD cards for recording and playback making these excellent for security. The app works well and allows sharing so multiple people can have access to the cameras.

    I would recommend this camera to anyone who is looking for a reliable water resistant outdoor security camera. Picture quality is good and I enjoy talking through the camera. I did purchase the ability to save option snaps on the cloud to refer back to. Very easy to install and step by step directions to set up.

    Nice Cameras, Terrible App

    I purchased these cameras a week ago after seeing a lot of great reviews. I will say the setup and installation was very simple, the 2k quality was great, however, their app needs big improvements. There is currently no way to modify the notification sound when your camera detects motion. It uses your phones default notification sound and their tech support confirmed you can’t change that. So, you won’t know the difference between someone walking up to your house at 2am trying to break in or if you’re getting a weather alert. The notification sound is the same. I ended up returning them because they’re useless when f they can’t uniquely alert you when someone is detected outside.

      Hello Jeff. This is because the app uses your device's push notifications. The settings and limitations are based on your phone or tablet's notification and sound settings. The only thing configurable from the app is the type of notifications you want to push to your phone/tablet.

      Best Regards

    Seems well built. Very good video quality. Very easy to setup and manage with app. Audio quality is worse than poor with little more than squeeks, chirps, and just a lot of noise. Can’t understand speech even when spoken close to the camera.

      Hi Panda1,

      Thank you for your review. We always suggest making sure your router's Wi-Fi signal is strong enough where the device is located. In the Tapo app, there is a feature that lets you check the Wi-Fi signal strength of your Tapo devices. With the app open, look within the Device Settings menu to see the signal strength.

      If the signal is within the ideal range, and you're still experiencing these symptoms, please ensure your Tapo app is up to date, then update your smart device's firmware by selecting Me → Firmware Update within the Tapo app.

      If you'd like help with any of these steps, contact our support team through any of the resources provided with the product or on our official website, and a Support Agent will follow up with you directly.

      Thank you,
      TP-Link Systems Support tplink

    We really like these cameras. They mount with magnets, stayed up during both Hurricane Helene & Milton. The color is good. We don’t use the cloud and we get notified quickly if someone is walking by or cars at front. We purchased two more we liked them so much. They can be sensitive if you have trees & need to lower the sensitivity. I recommend these cameras.
