@@LifeHackster Hi, there. Partnership seeking. I have sent you an email(check the name Alex), could you please give me a reply from your inbox. Thank you😊
Comment from a 30 tapo devices user from Singapore…love this tapo door bell will definitely add one to my smart home surveillance system. Oh btw, leaving the door bell outside there’s a risk someone may just grab & take it away, so imo maybe i will be installing it outside in a metal casing, only the camera & the door bell push button will be exposed. Thank you so much LifeHackster for the awesome review😉👍😍🤩😎😇🙏
I just recently got a Philips dual camera doorbell. It's really nice, one covers the front door and super wide angle area, other covers the floor area so you can see when packages are delivered. 2k and works really well but it's some serious money compared to the Tapo. It's battery powered but you can hardwire it if you want. Your camera certainly wins on bang per buck, can't beat it for the price I'd say.
Hello mate. Thanks for the review. This actually looks unbelievable. Quick question. Do you know what the difference is with this model and the Tapo TD21? They look to be the same, even has the same price, but of course, they're separate models. Also, does the chime have motion alert? Any help appreciated 👍
good video as always, want to ask, what happens if the chime and the doorbell itself is to far away from each other? Will it still work? Is the chime itself connected to wifi or just the doorbell?
I was excited when I viewed your review. I was wanting to order a couple until I read a number of reviews where they mentioned poor battery life. Because of that, they returned them. Perhaps you could do a follow up review later on and report your findings on battery life. Thanks.
Will do, I had the D225 installed since I reviewed it and currently still have 85% battery life left and with minimal use and detection. With the D210 after all my testing, it still sits at 97%.
Good review. That SD card placement is bad. Would alarm sound if the SD card is removed without taking off the doorbell? Or could this be linked to one of the docking hub to save the footage? Tapo should at least include the snapshot in the notification, like Eufy or Aosu, without paying for the subscription.
Just set mine up today, I am impressed so far, I have tried to change the chime tune but it keeps going back to the default tune, anyone know how I save the selected tune.
Could you please show me how to put window mount for Tapo C125 which is only available in Best Buy? I couldn't do it, it doesn't show video in the night due to reflection
@@Its_A_London_Thing Same, customer support told me that td21 has newer software, not too sure how true that is lol. If you look at the tapo website side by side the spec is 100% identical BUT it does say td21 is NEW so I'm happy with that. Perhaps it might be to differenciate it from the d225 model? Shorter name for the lesser model
Thanks for the great video, bought the same model about 2 weeks ago and it's been absolutely fantastic. You could technically wire it up with a USB C charger connected to an outlet, but you won't get 24/7 recording like on the D225. Great review, you make really good videos bud.
What smart doorbell and flood light security camera do you use for your house? I have the battery ring doorbell plus now. Ring sent me that one because my ring doorbell 3 plus audio got corrupted. Idk if I wanna stick with ring doorbell after that so I’m looking for other options rn.
Can't understand the appeal of having to be without a doorbell for several hours whilst it charges the battery. I have just replaced another Chinese no-name brand with a Tapo D230S1 and spare rechargeable battery for that very reason, and am so glad I did.
Too bad its not a replaceable battery pack so when it no longer holds a decent charge one could buy a new battery pack. Looks like with this one you just throw the whole doorbell away and get a new one.
It is a standard star screw that secures the SD card? If so, that is not very secured. Anyone could remove it with a screw driver, and it does not matter how long it takes if you do not have cloud because as soon as the have the SD card, they have the evidence!
I've seen other reviews for this doorbell, it's pretty good. Being battery powered, how well does it work during a power outage? You should try testing it in those situations with or without a wifi router that has a battery backup as sometimes the ISP still works during a power outage if your modem and router have a backup battery.
With the micro SD card installed, it will still record motion events to it even when power is out and if your router/model has power, then you will still be able to get notifications and access the camera.
I really like tapos cameras I have the MagCam and it's a really good camera I just wish it had some of eufy features but other than that it's a really good brand.
You do amazing reviews. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
Amazing. Even this low priced doorbell has a higher resolution than Ring.
Thanks for watching!

So I don’t need subscriptions but can I do live feed when it’s rang on my phone and also see old montion
Detection on app with out subscription
Can you install it in a angle like the Blink doorbell?
I can’t find any answers to this question anywhere:
How many users can get the tapo call when someone rings the bell?
I have to test this but I’m thinking anybody that has access to the account in the app, will get the notification but only 1 can answer.

just wanted to say your review on the levoit quite fan saved me a lot of hassle trying to find a true silent fan, thanks so much man!
Just ordered one of these. Looks a cool bit of kit.
good video as always, want to ask, what happens if the chime and the doorbell itself is to far away from each other? Will it still work? Is the chime itself connected to wifi or just the doorbell?
How many sounds have? If is no power is not working anymore the chime? This door bell is working with hub 200?
The person detection is quicker than I thought for being battery powered.

It’s a brilliant doorbell and it works well. I have one.
I just purchased this and it works great!
Great to hear!
Looking forward to your review of the Reolink Battery Doorbell!
:)
I was about to say this
What height is best to install the Wyze Cam for better focus?
Can’t seem to find info on the chime- is it 110-240v? Can a second or third chime be added?
Its 110-240v. I dont know if you can add a chime.
awesome product. Great price. Just bought it
Cool. Thanks for watching!
Can I tap on the app on my phone and watch the live feed through my phone? Thanks.
How many people can login at once on the app?
How to do multiple monitor

Tapo is still working to get it integrated with their H200 hub.
I just installed mine. I like it, except my chime doesn’t make any sounds when motion is detected. Is it supposed to?
Just set mine up today, I am impressed so far, I have tried to change the chime tune but it keeps going back to the default tune, anyone know how I save the selected tune.

I got the brutal D1000 it's the latest technology doorbell cam .... comes complete with a built in boxing glove and pepper spray function
This looks like a great doorbell, sadly not available in the UK yet. Interested to know what is your actual doorbell that you use?
its already in Uk
We have the TD21 model. Looks to be identical, so I'm not sure why the different model numbers -

@@keithvlogs1 - bizarre, mate! 😂 I'm thinking it may be something to do with the UK/US voltage, or something to do with power... Not a clue! 🤷♂️
Does tapo have a wired doorbell for 24/7 recording?
The Tapo D225.
Thanks for the great video, bought the same model about 2 weeks ago and it's been absolutely fantastic. You could technically wire it up with a USB C charger connected to an outlet, but you won't get 24/7 recording like on the D225.

Thank you. I appreciate it.
D225 can be wired to a AC adapter or some usb adapter?

I have the battery ring doorbell plus now. Ring sent me that one because my ring doorbell 3 plus audio got corrupted.
Idk if I wanna stick with ring doorbell after that so I’m looking for other options rn.
I think I also want a wired doorbell vs battery
Thanks L.H.
Thank you too!
I would love to see you do a review on the Tapo D235 Doorbell.
Thanks dude
Thanks for watching!
very good review thanks
Can't understand the appeal of having to be without a doorbell for several hours whilst it charges the battery. I have just replaced another Chinese no-name brand with a Tapo D230S1 and spare rechargeable battery for that very reason, and am so glad I did.
One thing you can do is to charge it at night or you can use a power bank to charge it while it is still mounted.
I wpuld just connect via usb c to my outdoor outlet...easy peasy 😂
Does anyone know how long it will likely perform before it starts having a problem, or just breaks? 5 years? 10?
I charge it in place lasts months
my ring lasts me 2-3months on a charge, this should be even better
Very impressive 👌
Thanks for watching!
Too bad its not a replaceable battery pack so when it no longer holds a decent charge one could buy a new battery pack. Looks like with this one you just throw the whole doorbell away and get a new one.
I have an android tracfone will this work ?
As long as it is a smart phone and you can download apps.
great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi sir i forgot my tapo camera password how to find it now please give me solution
There should be a "forget password" option in the app.
It is a standard star screw that secures the SD card? If so, that is not very secured. Anyone could remove it with a screw driver, and it does not matter how long it takes if you do not have cloud because as soon as the have the SD card, they have the evidence!
Philips driver. You can sign up for cloud recording if you are concerned about it being stolen.
if anyone steals SD card it would need formatting once removed so data is safe....
They have d235 too
Great review. Unfortunately a wifi jammer would disable it.
Is this for battery operated ones or WiFi ones?
Yes, this is WIFI only but with the SD card it should still record the event unless they remove and steal the doorbell too.
Sold mine is on the way.i am replacing my wyze video doorbell
not longer use it how to deactivate doorbell camera D210
Thanks
Welcome
Thank you for the review mate! Quick question, there is a 3mp and 5mp option for D210, which one did you test?
Thanks again

They seem good. It's a shame they are so blocky. They look as they were made in the 90's.
cool
Can’t somebody just swipe the SD card?
They can. They will need a small Philips driver.
