Tapo C510W 2K Outdoor Pan/Tilt Security Camera, 360°Visual Coverage, IP65 WiFi Camera, Motion Tracking, Full-Colour Night Vision, Cloud and Local Storage, Works With Alexa and Google, No Monthly Fee

First I have to say this is the 4th TAPO camera I bought, and for a reason. I also have TC70 and C310P2 x 2 outdoor cameras. On a budget, you get very very good software, solid quality and amazing functionality. GOOD STUFF: 1. Super easy and straight forward setup. Never had an issue with this with any of the cameras from Tapo - works like clockwork. 2. Great Picture quality both day & night time. For day time you'd probably expect nowadays, but night time is really amazing. Colour night vision with 360 degree horizontal and 130 degree vertical cover. 3. Amazing and precise movement & person detection, as well as activity zones and line crossing detection. Also, there is a motion tracing option so if needed - the tracking object won't be lost out of the view. 4. Great & quick notifications including reach notifications, so you can receive not just a message but also a snapshot of person/object or action captured. 5. Great functionality and customisation in general, including: Privacy Zones & Privacy Mode, scheduling, smart actions like on/off depending if you're home, patrol mode, etc. 6. Of course it's waterproof, with IP65 rating - just be sure to install it correctly, not upside down! 7. Great customisable alarm functionality where you can adjust both sounds & light alarm. Yes, it won't wake the whole street up, but it is loud enough for a device of this size. You can even record your own voice with spicy insults to make sure no thief remains indifferent. So even if they steal - their ego will be forever damaged. 8. In terms of storage - if you need to store the recordings you can use an SD card and store for free or you have an option to subscribe and store in the cloud. It's not super expensive in this regard comparing with some other mainstream brands. 9. Great software in general that lets you build or / and unify different Tapo devices for a smart home setup. CONS / TO NOTE: - I've got good connectivity, but want to note I have a strong router. Generally any camera or wireless device will depend a lot on the router and positioning, especially considering that it hangs outside. You can test yours before hanging, especially if your setup or plan allows options. Overall, that's a quality product. Recommend & picky engineer approved. Hope that assists you in your decision-making. Cheers!

I’ve been using the Security Camera for a few weeks now and I’m genuinely impressed. Setup was super simple, it takes just a few minutes to update firmware and setup using the Tapo app and it was up and running. The 2K video quality is incredibly sharp, far better than my old 1080p camera. It covers a full 360 degree pan, so I don’t have to worry about blind spots. The motion tracking is very responsive, it smoothly follows people or objects across the frame, which adds a real sense of security. One of my favourite features is the full-colour night vision. Even in pitch dark, I can see who’s outside in detail, which is a game-changer compared to the usual black-and-white night feeds. The IP65 rating means I can trust it in the UK weather - rain, wind, or shine, it just keeps working. It integrates easily with Alexa and Google Assistant, so I can check the feed hands-free when I’m busy around the house. I also love the fact that there’s no monthly fee - I use a microSD card for local storage, but there’s also a cloud option if I ever want it. Overall, the security camera is great value for money. It’s smart, sturdy, and full of advanced features you’d expect from more expensive brands. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade their home security without breaking the bank in the current cost of living crisis.

These are excellent pieces of kit , especially in trace mode, if you want to protect something these are excellent value for money, good quality footage too.

Perfect for the application it was designed for easy set up

Pretty good cameras and quality isn't too bad , do get a problem with connection when it rains and looses signal, would I recommend yes. As it's updated and easy to use good to record and you can pan and tilt with security light and warning siren 🙂

Works really well, easy to set up and very good wifi connection, no monthly fee, memory chips works really well, last really long

Excellent quality and value. Really what more could you want? The images are crisp, you can store as much video as you want if you get a large enough SD card. And the detection and tracking work well. I have this on the side of my house below the soffit. The IR night vision is impressive and the option of spot light is good too. Can't go wrong for this money.

Fácil de instalar y buena imagen

Bought these cameras and they worked for 1day and is constantly saying offline and won’t connect to my WiFi I’ve the fibre-optic broadband which is excellent

Risoluzione ottima ,la videocamera è compatta,sono 2 settimane che la uso e per ora tutto funziona.

Ich habe mir 3 Tapo Kameras (1xC510W und 2xC310) gekauft und installiert. Die Installation ist einfach und ging bei mir problemlos - einfach die Kamera in der App hinzufügen, hat auf Anhieb geklappt. Für mich wesentlich ist, dass ich nicht für jede Kamera eine eigene App haben will. Daher ist es wichtig, dass der Hersteller einige verschiedene Modelle im Angebot hat. Die Bildqualität ist m.E. sehr gut, auch bei Nacht. WIe bei allen derartigen Kameras kann die Bewegungserkennung nicht zwischen Schneefall und Bewegung unterscheiden, daher hat man bei Schneefall eine Daueraufzeichnung. Bei diesen Kameras ist es aber auch möglich, nur die Personenerkennung zu aktivieren, die relativ gut funktioniert. Das Durchsehen verschiedener Ereignisse anhand der Zeitleiste funktioniert auch gut. Die meisten dieser Apps machen das gleich, aber nicht immer funktioniert es so gut wie bei TPLink, d.h. bei anderen Apps springt die Zeitleiste manchmal. Etwas überraschend für mich war aber, dass es keinen direkten Zugriff z.B. über einen Browser im WLAN gibt. Man kann nur über die App zugreifen, die allerdings in Ordnung ist. Ich habe kein Cloud Abo abgeschlossen, die Funktionalität ist dennoch voll gegeben, ohne Einschränkungen. Natürlich gibt es kein Backup der Videos. Es ist nicht möglich, die eigenen Videos von der Kamera auf ein NAS o.Ä. zu kopieren - ohne Cloud sind im Fall des Falles also Kamera und Aufzeichnungen weg. Das Cloud Abo ist allerdings nicht billig. Insgesamt bin ich mit der Performance der 3 Kameras aber sehr zufrieden, der WLAN Empfang ist bei mir auch relativ gut. Eine der Kameras ist ca. 20m vom Access Point im Garten positioniert und funktioniert tadellos - hätte ich nicht geglaubt.
