  • Worth Getting
Style: 2K+ Size: 1-Pack Color: White
Love these cameras! I have 7 cameras around my property, and they work great. Rechargeable, so no need to constantly replace batteries, and goes straight to my phone. So as long as you have internet, you are able to view them when away from home.

  • Great 2K Duo Camera Set!
Style: 2K+ Size: 2-Pack Color: White
Great camera duo. Set up was easy, make sure you format your micro SD card. It will not allow you to forget. Bi-directional communication and magnetic base is impressive. I may opt to add a solar panel to make a continuous charge without the need of once every 6 months. Clear video and audio along with 12X zoom. I like the detection zones as well. Nice packaging and hardware. You can add up to a 512GB Micro SD card. ... show more

Tapo makes great products. That's all I use. Very easy to setup up. Free 30 cloud service. I have about 15 Tapo cameras around my property. They have storage on the camera so you can install a SD card. Great night vision at a reasonable distance. Speaker and mic works great and you can have notifications sent to your phone. ... show more

  • Good quality video for the price point.
Style: 2K+ Size: 1-Pack Color: White
Purchased June 16th. Great pictures and very reliable. This was a replacement for my Ring system. The onboard micro sd and lack of a paid subscription are actually a plus. There is virtually no lag with the camera waking on motion and records for the duration of the motion. Live view and recorded events are viewable via home wifi and an app on either phone or tablet. The battery lasts a good, long time depending on the settings. I was concerned about the magnetic mount but shouldn't have been. It is quite secure and allows for moounting nearly paralell to a wall. It also has a threaded location on the back for aftermarket mounts if that's what you want. Exceeded my expectations. ... show more

  • It’s about as good as a battery powered camera can get
Style: 2K+ Size: 1-Pack Color: White
Battery powered cameras are severely limited. I knew this going in. It was cheap, it was easy to put up, it works well. It definitely lags around 3-4s from reality due to the WiFi-only connection. It’s not possible to record these to an NVR since they only record when they detect something or your battery would die quickly. By far the biggest problem with every battery powered camera is that every recording inevitably starts with the subject well into the frame (in the best case scenario). A wired camera will record all the time, keeping 5-10s of footage in its memory. Then if it detects something, it can save that past 10s of video data so you can see the entire event. This one does seem to work better than the Reolink Argus 2/3 I had, where the entire recording would be the back of the subject leaving the frame. I feel like this wakes up quicker. But a fast moving person or animal could still easily run thru without being captured, if they knew it was there. Mine is high up with a broad view which reduces that issue but seems to cause a different one. The app warned me today “my battery is draining too fast”. I just have this up in my back yard and there have been a few people walking around back there. I guess I’m supposed to point it at the ground rather than out across a wide area? Reviewing the footage, there aren’t any false positives at all so I don’t really want to dial down the sensitivity. my options seem to be either reduce the coverage or ignore the warning and charge it more often. Neither seems ideal. The battery life is still at 98% tho and it’s been up and recording for 3 1/2 days. That’s pretty great. Hopefully it lasts at least a few years before the battery starts failing. Obviously a battery powered camera is ultimately a disposable item since the battery will degrade and it can’t be replaced. not that it would be especially difficult technically, but finding an exact match would be tough. Any change whatsoever (chemistry, amps, volts, etc) could render it dangerous to charge. Dont really want to risk a lithium fire inside for a $45 camera. I really like the Tapo camera’s “AI” (probably not) detection. It is really configurable and works well. However, it works better and has more functionality on the wired cameras AND they’re cheaper. Also the app keeps warning me that using the detection features uses a lot of battery. The magnetic grip is strong! It comes with a plate to mount it but I just stuck it to my garage (metal). Seems sturdy enough. If not moved I’ll use the plate, and the cameras attachment to that thing feels strong enough to withstand a hurricane. Super powerful magnet there, that’s really nice. However, I don’t see any mechanism to keep someone from pulling it down and taking it with them. Nothing you can really do either way, but some locking mechanism might be nice. If you want to get a camera, do everything in your power to wire them. POE works best. My most important cameras are POE and that’s all I’d use for anything critical. But if you MUST have a battery powered camera, this is the best one I’ve used! Just be aware of the considerable drawbacks with any battery security camera. You’re trading ease of installation for greatly reduced reliability, functionality, and ultimately you have to put in more work later to take it down and charge it, etc. ... show more

  • Doesn't work at night
Style: 2K+ Size: 1-Pack Color: White
Absolutely terrible at night. I don't know if I have a defective camera or not, but I would have to buy another one to find out, and I'm not sure I want to. I purchased at a time when it was on sale, so by the time I had time to install it, it was beyond the return window (which is a lesson to not buy unless I can use something right away). I wanted this due to issues with wildlife (neighbor feeds pests like raccoons) and wanted to see what, how many, etc. were coming through the yard. They have ruined a lot of things around the house... grapes, plum tree, corn. This one seemed appealing due to local storage and control without connection to the internet as well as light and alarm sounds to potentially scare wildlife away. My hopes were high. It seems to work okay in the day, but at night it doesn't. I have a game cam set up perpendicular to the view of this cam, so it can record at night. I see through this cam that the Tapo recognizes something is walking by, like a raccoon, but it WILL NOT RECORD. I have gone through every setting on the Tapo multiple times, but it just doesn't record. The only time it does is immediately when it comes out of privacy mode. It will also record if a person is walking for a long time in front of it. It recognizes, but won't record until I'm basically opening the door and in the house, which makes it worthless to me. I tried contacting customer support, but they kept asking me to upload a recording from the camera... like they don't understand what I'm saying. It DOESN'T RECORD. I could upload a video from my game cam recording the bear walking by and you can see the IR light from the Tapo, so it knows something is there. Does it record a dang bear walking by at the perfect angle? No. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I'm not sure I want to waste another $60 or so buying another one to see if mine is defective. ... show more

  • Love it
Style: 2K+ Size: 1-Pack Color: White
The TP-Link Tapo MagCam is an absolute winner in the realm of outdoor security cameras! Earning the prestigious 2024 PCMag Editors' Choice and Wirecutter Recommended accolades speaks volumes, and after experiencing it firsthand, it's easy to see why. Setup was an absolute breeze thanks to the innovative magnetic mount. Seriously, it took mere minutes to securely place the camera exactly where I needed it without any complicated drilling or wiring hassles. This flexibility in placement is a huge plus, allowing for quick adjustments to the viewing angle as needed. The 2K resolution delivers incredibly crisp and clear video quality. Details are sharp, making it easy to identify faces and objects, even when zoomed in. The wide 150° field of view is fantastic, capturing a broad expanse of my property and minimizing blind spots. I feel confident that I'm getting a comprehensive view of what's happening outside. The battery life has been impressive so far. I haven't had to recharge it nearly as often as I initially anticipated, which is a significant convenience. Knowing it's battery-powered also gives me peace of mind during power outages. The person and vehicle detection features are remarkably accurate. I receive timely and relevant notifications without being bombarded by alerts for every passing leaf or stray animal. This smart detection truly helps to focus on what matters most. Having the option of both SD card and cloud storage provides excellent flexibility for storing footage. I appreciate being able to choose the method that best suits my needs and preferences. The Tapo app is also intuitive and user-friendly, allowing for easy access to live feeds, recorded videos, and settings adjustments from anywhere. In summary, the TP-Link Tapo MagCam is a top-tier outdoor security camera that offers: Effortless Magnetic Installation: Makes setup and repositioning incredibly simple. Stunning 2K Resolution: Provides crystal-clear video with excellent detail. Wide 150° Field of View: Captures a broad area, minimizing blind spots. Long-Lasting Battery: Reduces the need for frequent recharging. Intelligent Person/Vehicle Detection: Delivers accurate and relevant alerts. Flexible Storage Options: Supports both SD card and cloud storage. User-Friendly App: Offers easy access and control. If you're looking for a reliable, high-performing, and easy-to-use outdoor security camera, the TP-Link Tapo MagCam is an outstanding choice. It's a worthy investment for enhancing your home security! ... show more

Great camera but had to return because it could only see 24 feet accurately. I need about 46 feet, so I bought another camera from Tapo. They do great returns and are a really good company.
