I never write reviews. Well, very rarely. I have been searching for a small camera to place outside my apartment door that pointed at my door and the surrounding hallway. I have ordered multiple cameras, only to have troubles connecting them to the Wi-Fi, or them working for a few minutes and stopping,... It was one issue after another with each little mini spy cam I seemed to purchase. I couldn't trust reviews anymore. I wanted wireless. Obviously if I live in an apartment building it's not going to be easy if it it's not wireless. But that seemed to be the only things that were left out there, that I hadn't tried. I ordered this camera and I thought it was wireless. I was wrong. But hold on. There's more to this story... First of all, connecting it to my Wi-Fi and working with the app was so super simple, I was worried something was wrong. Could it really be this easy?? After I disconnected it from the cord that charged it .... it stopped working. That's when I realized I had made a mistake and it needed to stay plugged in. Duh. The thing is is that it was so simple to get it up and running, seriously less than 5 minutes! And the picture was good! And it seemed to have a lot of flexibility so I could angle it just the way I wanted to. I looked at it and said you know what? I'm going to make this thing work for me. I am not sending a camera that is this easy to set up, back. I have a mini SCD card. I don't want to pay for cloud storage. I don't want to pay for anything extra The cord that comes with this little camera is basically flat so I had no trouble putting it through the top of my door without the door pinching the cord! It was pretty long.... But I did not have an outlet near the door so up up on a step ladder this old woman went, and I taped it along the ceiling line and then I chose a white extension cord so it would blend in with the wall in my living room. I made it look good. I am thrilled with this camera! I can now see who's knocking at my door... I can speak to them clearly through my two-way audio. I can see if somebody has left a package. I am disabled so getting up and down is not always easy for me... And I live alone so sometimes I'm not dressed for guests if you know what I mean lol. This whole review, It does nothing else, I want to make sure that it shows you the ease with which this camera was set up. So that, along with the fact that the picture quality was excellent, so *completely* outweighed the inconvenience of having to figure out how to connect it to the nearest outlet in my home.If you are a frustrated consumer like I was tried multiple cameras only to have to keep returning them and not getting what you want, please consider this one. One. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Honestly, I was a bit skeptical when purchasing it.. BUT it works wonderfully! I needed an indoor camera for my cats, and I’ve been looking for one and found this one. It captures the WHOLE room! It senses my cats as soon as they walk into the room! When reviewing the cameras, you can simply speed up the video if you don’t want to wait through each second. Slight delay on the mic but not much. No complaints from me tbh. Night vision works wonderfully too!Now, the most important part… the storage capacity.. is great! I’m using a 64GB microchip. So it’ll record all captured footage into the chip (technically you can keep it running all day if you want and it’ll only save when movement or person is detected). WHEN, the chip is full, it overwrites the older videos. No need for a new chip (unless you want another one). I really like this feature! There is a subscription in case you want to save them to the cloud but it’s not required for use of the camera. The chip’s storage works fine. It must stay connected to the outlet at all times when in use. Overall, 10/10.Will be recommending it to other pet parents!

I recently purchased the Tapo by TP-Link 1080P Indoor Security Camera, and it has exceeded my expectations. The setup was straightforward, and the camera integrates seamlessly with my existing smart home devices. The 1080p video quality is crisp and clear, providing detailed footage both during the day and at night, thanks to its advanced night vision capabilities.One of the standout features is the motion detection with instant notifications. I receive alerts on my phone whenever movement is detected, allowing me to monitor my home in real-time. The two-way audio function is also impressive; I can communicate with family members or pets while I’m away, which adds an extra layer of convenience.The camera supports both cloud and microSD card storage, giving flexibility in how footage is saved. I appreciate the customizable activity zones, which help reduce false alerts by focusing on specific areas of interest.Overall, the Tapo Indoor Security Camera offers a robust set of features at an affordable price point. It’s a reliable choice for anyone looking to enhance their home security with a user-friendly and effective indoor camera.

I got these cameras to see who keeps trying to break into my house. I love that it comes with 4 cameras and the 2 way hearing and speaking feature is pretty cool. it's very responsive to all movements. The alarm feature is too sensitive as it sounds an alarm with any movement. The set up isn't direct. I had to read the reviews to figure out how to connect the cameras. You will need to get an SD card for each camera or buy the cloud subscription (per device) or you could always watch it 24/7. And they aren't wireless. Overall I am happy with this purchase. it's just unfortunate that I need it.

These things are great. I read a lot of the 1 star reviews before I purchased 2, and I saw a few complaints about it “not being wireless” - it’s not advertised as solar powered so not sure how these people were expecting it to operate, but anyways…Can’t beat it for this price point. Comes with optional mount and screws, I might put one up eventually. But the setup is very straightforward and the picture quality is damn fine. It’s not fancy so there aren’t any controls or zoom, but you can zoom in by pinching the screen and moving the frame around. I bought em for pet monitoring during travel to Area 51.
