Solid Outdoor Camera With Great Coverage
I’ve been using the Tapo C500 outside for a bit now, and overall I’m impressed. The pan and tilt feature is the real star here. Being able to rotate the camera and see everything around it from the app means there are basically no blind spots, which is exactly what I wanted for outdoor security. Motion tracking works well and follows movement smoothly without being jittery. The only issue with emotion tracking is that if something moves too quickly through its field of view it isn't able to keep up with it. But that's really only a problem if you're trying to keep up with every car that passes your house. Night vision is clear enough to easily see what’s going on after dark, and setup was straightforward. I also like that you can customize the light and sound alarms if you want an extra layer of “hey, you’re being watched.” It connects on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only, which is fine for most setups, just something to be aware of. I'm still on my 30-day trial of the paid service. I'm pretty sure we're going to go ahead and pay for it. The service seems solid and I've had zero issues with it thus far. Not to mention the price is very reasonable. Overall, this feels like a solid, reliable outdoor camera with good features and strong coverage for the price.

Well, worth the money
Very impressed with the quality of these cameras they work very well. I have used AM crest security cameras for years and I’m just tired of having to deal with them and their apps that they have. There’s always issues with the apps whereas with these they’re super easy to set up absolutely no problems with the apps at all I have a total of 11 cameras, and I am switching all of my cameras over to these and throw the other ones away, buy them you’ll be happy you did

Security camera
Very good camera, excellent quality and easy to use I bought this Tapo camera for the outside and the truth surprised me for good. The installation was very simple and the app is intuitive. The 1080P image looks very clear both day and night, and the night vision works perfectly. I really like that it has a 360° view and movement tracking, since you don't miss anything that happens around. Alerts arrive quickly on the cell phone and AI detection works quite well, without the need to pay for a subscription. It works without problems with Alexa and Google Home, and the storage is practical. For the price it has, it offers a lot of functions. Without a doubt, it is an excellent option for home security. I totally recommend it.

Not 100 % Google Home capabilities
The picture quality is good, the camera itself is great, but connecting with Google Home was not real for me, it doesn’t not stream live feed and even that the apps said they were linked, I never got to see the cameras on the Google home. :(

Over 6 months, still perfect!
I just put another one of these cameras in my cart. I've had one up since July and it still works perfectly. I do not use the cloud service, instead in installed a memory card. Super easy setup. It follows people, animals, bugs lol, it will pan and follow just about everything while recording. Super easy to view and watch recordings. I can download any recording with a quick click of a button to my phone. If I leave a review, it is either awful or I like it that much. If you're looking for a inexpensive, very good quality camera, I recommend this camera. Also, it paired easily with my alexa so I can use the camera with the app or alexa. This camera has been through snow, sleet, storms, not a single issue. When the camera is tripped, it records and puts it in a quick and simple location. Open it and with the memory card I can see any movements for the last 24 hours. You don't have to watch tons of video. From there, click download. That easy and you do not need another app or program to watch it and you do not have to spend a single penny, unless you want to pay for the cloud service which I cannot tell you how much that is. Get this camera, you won't be disappointed.

Best Tapo Outdoor Camera we own!!
We love every single one of our Tapo cameras! This one in particular is on our back porch. Downloading and accessing the app is super easy. Installing the camera is just as easy. The included 2 way talk and nighttime spot light features are just an added benefit for an already great camera. The view from the app is very clear, day or night. I ran the wire along side our sliding glass door so it’s hidden by the doorframe. Install took a total of 5 minutes from start to finish. The overall size of the camera once installed is sleek and not extremely noticeable. The pan and tilt option in the app is so convenient and makes the camera stand out above our other Tapo cameras. I’ve included views from my app so you can see how cool it is that you can set views with your camera that you can go back to when you’re in the app. Overall, for the functionality and quality this camera is 100% worth every penny I spent!

Câmera com imagem muito boa e bons recursos. Aplicativo Tapo é ótimo, funciona bem e não tem propagandas. Pelo valor poderia ter zoom ótico.
