    Great review!
    I have a house in the Philippines I am monitoring here in the US.
    I am using Tapo- 2 outdoors and 1 indoor camera. So far, I am really satisfied. Best part is No subscription needed. Subscription is optional.
    I bought all 3 cameras online from the official store of Tapo in Lazada Philippines (it’s like Amazon).

      Yeah i like that camera. The 520W it seems is just the starlight version of the 510. (And a resolution bump) I had logged down the 510W was running 2304x1296 . this new one Looks like its 2560x1440.

      Hi, I'm thinking of getting the C510W. Please does the floodlight only come on when motion is detected and how long does it stay on for? And can the floodlight stay on when you put it on yourself from the app without any motion detection? Thank you

    @drshmoo 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    In future reviews could you cover if camera's included power equipment (cables, mostly) can be routed through an exterior wall into an interior space like a garage to an outlet therein? My old nest IQ cameras came with instructions specifically for this use case, and I have not seen any other camera brands addressing it as directly.

  • @SirRommy
    @SirRommy 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +20

    I'm surprised this camera doesn't have a "home" position that it can return to after no detection events for a period of time. I have the C211 and that one DOES have a homing position. Also, the audio pickup test was pretty bad. Maybe it was due to wind? Again, the C211 seems to have a much clearer audio recording ability.
    Update: I now own this camera and it does indeed have a homing function in which it returns to the home position after a short period of inactivity. Maybe they did a firmware update since this review was released. Again, loving the Tapo line of cameras.

    • @DyseRLJ
      @DyseRLJ 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Is the recorded audio still bad, given your ownership experience? Was it just a wind issue in the case of this video?

    • @SirRommy
      @SirRommy 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @musicalprithwi8833 There isn't an on/off setting. Once you set a view, and enable tracking, it will follow the subject until the motion stops then, after a short amount of time, it just returns to the position it was in before following the subject.

    I have tried some Tapo cameras but so far I have returned all of them back to Amazon. Tapo cameras have a weird exterior design. When it comes to performance the night color pro looks good until there is movement in front of the camera, a lot of ghosting. Hopefully soon Tapo will release a software update to allow users to trigger camera siren from the app. Pricing for Tapo subscription isn’t great compared to Wyze and even Nest cameras.

    • @SirRommy
      @SirRommy 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Weird? I hope that's not the only reason for the return. I have the C211 and it looks like a...panning camera.

  • @PatrickC139
    @PatrickC139 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I reviewed the other version. the 510W. (Non starlight version). Overall it was a pretty solid camera overall but i felt the spotlights on it were a bit too warm tone for me, and I wish it had Pet/vehicle detection. At the time it only had Motion and Person (Not sure if they updated that via software). I agree that their motors seem to be VERY Quiet which is great. I did get on them that the overall motor speed is kinda slow, but it'll move really fast when going to a way point so i wish they gave you speed controls.

    Nice video review. 2k is nice but thats only live or? Save to sd storage is reduced to 720 or is it 2k in tapocare? So picuturequality on stored videos that I think are most interesting in a surveillance point of view is poor? Think it will be hard having good readings of licence plates with 720? Another thing to think of is that only the camera is ip66 not the poweroutletplug itself but it should of course have been too. To use the camera outside safely the poweroutletplug should have been ip66 too, but u actually have to buy and put it inside a ipxx proof box not to shortcut in heavy rain and moisture. I DO Like the line crossing feature but missing LPR licence plate recognition. Have u tested some LPR cameraes too? When will color pro version of cam be available and what's productname of that cam? Would also be nice in review video to see how much of the licenceplatenr it's possible to see in dark and not only in daytime light.

  • @HUTIENLAN
    @HUTIENLAN 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I installed one on my yard. However, the power cable design is simply a short cable without any protections. It could be easily unplugged by anyone and your camera would shut down immediately. Any good suggestions?

    • @sjurkt
      @sjurkt 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, I totally agree with u. This is a bit stupid solution with this powercableplug. Either u have to have an outlet high on the wall not reachable from ground or u have to an outlet that's r lockable. Where I come from norway u can get some lockable poweroutlet think they have that in other places too. But even then it's a bit vulnerable since u can just drag the cable apart from each other or just cut it over. The powercable itself should have been better designed and thicker corded with a steelwire protection around the be more secure. And the two cables should have some kind of screw connection also to prevent easy unplugged be anyone. What I have done is that I used some gaffatape on the cable joint itself and to secure the whole cable I used a bit stronger waterhose around. But it should have been produced better and smarter from the producer. Also be aware that the power cable plug it's not watersafe allthough they call the cam ip66 proof. But if u place power plug in a moisture rich or rainwater rich area it can shortcircuit so either install that power plug in a dry area or connect it to at least a ip44 proof outlet I think. If u use it outside in garden connected to a extension cord u can use a ip44 proof or better box to connect powerplug so it doesn't shortcircuit.

    Why would the pan and tilt function freezes and reboots the camera after a few presses to control the camera pan when at night / night mode. The recording and detection still works fine at night if I don’t try to manually pan control. I wouldn’t expect the wifi signal drop during night time (wifi shows good signal). During day the app control fully functional, no freezing or rebooting. Why would this be?

    What are some 512 gb SD cards that are compatible? (Bought Samsung Evo SDC but wouldn't format)

      Try formatting using your computer and see. I have been using Sandisk, no issues.

    would be an excellent cam if not for spotty mic and occasional dodgy live feed. Looking at the forums, the consensus is that Tapo have throttled audio/vid bitrates down to suit their cloud service. Seems Tapo would rather give their customers a deliberately-nobbled product, just to steer customers to using their cloud service.
    Come on Tapo! Sort it out! It's late june '24 by now and there's still no sight of a firmware fix for this.

    Everything about the Tapo camera series is great except for one thing, which TP Link promised to look at it 2 years ago!, and that is a Smart TV app so you can see your camera on your SmartTV when for example you heard a cracking sound outside while you're watching a movie!

    G'Day LH ! can you recommend a POE set of security cams that record 24/7 record sound as well, and has great zoomability, I was told hikvision was pretty good but I have been told some of them can get hacked if you connect them to the internet. Oh yeah, we don't what you know who spying through the cams, I know the Australian Gov got rid of a certain... good brand of security cams because you know who was using them to spy.. Also the cams need to be weather resistant. I'd like to be able to zoom out to the road and identify anyone riding a pushbike, the arlo cams, pros and pro2s are crap when zooming in.
    Cheers LH

    Nice camera. The only downside to Tapo camera is that you can’t record to sd and use onvif simultaneously.

    Thank you for the detailed testing. Debating Tapo vs. Blink, bought both to compare. Any thoughts from your testing on that matchup?

    Based on the video section with multiple people, is the camera only going to keep position on the first person it detected? The other person/people at the opposite direction won't be seen at all?

    I was hoping to get this for the starlight feature. But looking at your review I might choose a lower model. Thanks for the in depth review!

      The rich notification feature is one thing that needs a server to upload the snapshots to the cloud temporarily. Some companies like Eufy does this for free but those snapshots does use up server space and server costs for these companies.

    From the 7 min mark, the audio was so crackly and jumpy before&after ever move.
    The rest is great, is this set up round the $500 mark?

    Great camera for price. Question though, the mic in the app seems to keep switching back to on or open mic which is not good for privacy whilst in my home. Any ideas or put me right on this thx in advance.
