The photo you see is from the Tapo app, taken at night, during a fairly heavy snowstorm in Quebec Canada ey! The camera is setup in the bedroom, so picture is seen through a window, not bad ey! I also own an Ezviz indoor camera(CN6060 I believe) setup through a window also, but the light on the camera reflects in the window so I can’t see anything at night. Tapo says night vision extends to 30 ft, but as you can see, houses on the other side of the street are at least 75 feet away and you can still see them, although I am sure streetlights help a lot. Night detection is 30 feet, maybe more. I set up the camera to detect persons only, and it works fine as long as persons step on my property. It does detect some persons on the street, if they walk on my side of the street.
Audio is decent too, have not really used it, but did hear my wife that was standing at least 15 feet away from the camera. She made me turn audio off, camera is in the bedroom after all! :- I
Setup is very easy, done in 10-15 minutes on both iPad and iPhone. This thing is so light, I taped it to the top of the window, upside down, adjusted the angle, reversed the picture in the app and I was done.
You can view the camera feed on a computer through VLC media player (VideoLan, it’s free to download). You need to setup a separate, free Tapo account account for this, I have read somewhere in the Tapo help that you can do everything with one account, but it did not work for me. Doc should be made clearer about this. After 3 days, the feed does not show on VLC anymore (still works fine on iPhone and iPad), but I will reboot eventually and it will probably work again. I need to input username and password in VLC everytime I want to see the feed, maybe I will dive into the VLC help and automate this.
I have bought a micro SD card (128Gb max for this model) and will install it soon. Doc says that if you put in a card, the feed to external device (VLC in this case) will not work. I hope this is not the case, will see.
Best part is that no membership is required. You get a 30-day free trial, but external feed will not work with membership or free trial, so I cancelled it before trying it out, so I can`t comment on membership.
There is a 2K and maybe even 4K model of this camera, but since I own over 20 smart devices, my Wifi is not as fast as it used to be, Full HD is enough for now.
This is a great camera, even more so if you’re new to smart devices. I will probably buy a few more soon, especially if it stays or goes on sale again. ”Alexa, show me camera two”!
Update Jan 23rd: Viewing the camera stream through VLC Media player stopped working after 2-3 days, VLC cannot connect to the camera. I setup Agent DVR free software instead and it works OK, but the picture is a bit grainy, but it does record detected persons automatically.
Update Jan 28 2024: I have seen a review that says you have to pay the subscription fee for motion detection to work, this is not true. Motion detection (I set it to person detection only) works fine, I get a notification on my phone (see photo in french cause my iPhone is set to french) when a person is detected.

Por su relación precio/ calidad es excelente. Desde la imagen hasta la configuración es sencilla. Algunos peros para añadir a otros usuarios pero investigando un poco, se soluciona. Muy recomendable.

This Tapo C100 unit arrives in perfectly new condition and works great in general.
The hardware is good for use with convenience. The base mounting ball swivel allows for 360° rotation. The power cable is long enough (around 3 meters) for versatile setup plans across one’s room. The microphone… well it just works. Beware the C100 unit only supports 2.4G WiFi so make sure your AP or router enables that.
Software support in Tapo app is pretty robust. Some features are behind paywall, though Tapo does offer everone a free month trial and promise not to automatically charge you by the end. Nonetheless, the app could still use more polishing in customization and recording management. The camera supports local backup with micro SD card. However, apart from simply viewing, the Tapo app does not support deletion or download of any specific video recording from SD card at this time; instead, one must take out their card to manage their recordings on a PC or whatnot. This could have been a software feature.
The C100 camera and Tapo app also natively support password-protected RTSP streaming over TCP/UDP for use with your NVR; check Tapo support website for setup guide in FAQ section. I absolutely appreciate this feature since some other camera manufactures go to great lengths to discourage you from using camera features outside their walled garden proprietary apps.
All above, Tapo C100 is a worthy product for anyone looking for a functional camera bang for your buck.

I got this after my dog had surgery so I could keep an eye on him in his crate and make sure he wasn’t licking his incision. I do not take full advantage of all the features so I can’t comment on everything, but it works exactly a I needed it to.
Set up was easy with very clear instructions. This camera will require an app download, but does not require any sort of subscription. This means I can open the app and watch the live feed anytime, but if I wanted to record, which I don’t care about, I would need a sub or an sd card. Since I don’t need to record, I appreciate the ability to bypass any of that and still have the camera work.
I’m reviewing in the app which won’t let me attach a screenshot, but I like that it has night vision, so I can see him even in low light, and I also can zoom in if I need to take a closer look (is he chewing his incision or a toy?)
I do not use the talk feature so I cannot comment on the audio or ease of use. My dog comes to work with me so I don’t typically use it to monitor during the day, but I have used it while away from home and it’s easy to see and connects well. I also don’t bother with the blurring feature since I’m the only one with access to the feed.
Picture quality is decent! I can easily see anything I need to on the camera, even in night mode.
Overall I am thrilled with this purchase for the purpose I bought it for.

So I’m only giving it a 4 star bc the talking feature isn’t clear and doesn’t work properly. …BUT OVERALL!!! I love the camera and what it does the video is clear and the motion sensor is VERY on point. The price was affordable and the quality is great. I used a command strip to place mine and that was very great as well for my place which is an apartment and I don’t want to mount it and even still the camera is very secure thanks to the way the camera stand comes as well.

These cameras are great. They catch all the movement, have great clarity and the night vision on them is amazing. The app is free, or you can choose a package for storing your videos. I chose not to do that bc I can see what I need to see and go back and look at it, also you can download it so there’s really no need. I have arlo setup outside and was looking for something less pricey for inside. My coworker suggested these and I’m so glad he did. I want to buy a few more. For the price, this cannot be beat. The setup was simple and fast. You can’t put a price on peace of mind. These little guys are under $20 and I consider that an absolute steal. Worth every penny, and then some.

Excellent product for the price as they were less than $20 each. Super easy to setup and connect. All you need is a power drill with a 1/16 drill bit to mount to the wall and a Phillips head screwdriver. No tape, no measuring and no hassle. Comes with a drill guide card so you know exactly where to drill. Also comes with a power cord, instruction sheet, mounting screws and regular screws. All you do after mounting is plug in the power cord, download the app, connect to your WiFi, insert an SD card, format the card from the app and you can see every room where you’ve installed and connected a camera right from your phone. The picture quality is very clear but distance can be a factor after about 25 feet. Also has night vision and a record function so you can watch and record at the same time. Also has motion detection which is very effective and notifies you by phone every time there is a slight movement in the room. Picks up audio and it gives you the option to store to the cloud if you’re willing to pay for the subscription service. Otherwise you can use a micro SD card to store data. I’m very satisfied with my purchase and will buy again. I just hope that this specific model will not be discontinued anytime soon.
Additional info: The power cord is at least 10 feet long or more so you probably will not need an extension cord to mount the camera high up and close enough to an outlet. Just be mindful of where you choose to mount. This can be more challenging in homes with pets and small children.

For the budget this cam is a gem. Add microsd card and it records every motion. Night vision is very clear and easy to install and maintain. Only thing is it does not work with Google home which I would have enjoyed.

Normalmente compraba las camaras AKASO, pero me sorprendio la calidad de estas.
Escribo esta nota por si alguno presentó problemas o dificultades de instalación, a mi me pasó, compre dos camaras la primera se instaló sin problemas siguendo las indicaciones de la aplicación TAPO TP LINK, pero al querer instalar la segunda se instalaba pero solo en la red wifi de la camara o al desinstalarla ya no se podía instalar de nuevo. Mis reocmendaciones: 1. no actualizar el firmware (Al menos no antes de instalar) 2. reinicia la camara con el boton y/o sal de la aplicación de tu telefono y vuelve a entrar. E instala. 3. Asegurrate que una vez que haya detectado el wifi propio de la camara, la aplicación busque el wifi de tu casa. 4. cuando vayas a instalar una nueva camara DESCONECTA TODAS LAS DEMAS CAMARAS, asi solo detectará la camara que vas a instalar.
Espero que te haya servido yo perdí como dos horas hasta que dicon la solución. Pero en lo general el proceso de instaación es muy sencillo.

The picture is great and it does the job for little money. You have to have a micro card to see and save any video or you pay monthly for their cloud. It’s wireless but has to be plugged. The instructions are not clear so took me a bit to figure out and format the micro card which got me a bit frustrated as I wish it was clearer but I got it all set up and it just works fantastic. I will be buying more.
