TAPO TC40 Security Cameras - My Review
I initially had a few problems with both my TC40 Cameras dropping out and losing connection to my Internet, even though the Deco Mesh Network was also manufactured by the same company - TP Link. I contacted their Technical Dept for assistance, and they gave me loads of hints and tips to solve the issue, but unfortunately, it didn't, as they still kept dropping off the Network. Even after pairing just one camera directly to my main Internet Suppliers Modem, I still had a similar issue. So it a was a general rather than a specific connection issue. After going deep into the TAPO App, I found a setting that I decided to change, and since then the two cameras have performed superbly, and no drop out - so seems Ive solved the Drop Out Issue myself. Apart from that Hic Up - I cannot fault the clarity of the cameras in both Daylight and "Smart Mode" in the total darkness - the picture quality as fabulous at all times of the day/night. The TAPO App is also first class as you have so many options you can choose how to control the cameras, and what info you want it give you, when you want Notifications, and not etc etc. Its faultless in its Options and simplicity to control what you want the cameras to do for you. For the price I bought these 2 x TC40 for, I believe I got excellent value for money, over and well below other manufacturers cameras I could have purchased, for a lot more money. So superb value for money, once I was able to overcome in infuriating Drop Out situation. One simple change in the Network Settings made the whole difference and stopping the Drop Out situation. Easy to place in the correct position, easy to Set Up on the TAPO App, and set the requirements you need from these Security Cameras. Money well spent now the gremlins have gone.

Amazing Camera
Brilliant.Amazing for the money. Full colour or B&W at night. Pan&Tilt (no Zoom) but it does track and follow the movement detected. Easy to play back images and vids. Has audio if you need it. Comes with a power supply and works tirelessly from the router or can be hardwired. You will need to buy an SD Card. Great images for just £45

Needs carful positioning and setup
A good camera as regards ease of setup, clarity of image both close and within 30ft. I had no problem with wifi connection although the speed of connection does reduce as the distance from router increases. The movement detection is very sensitive, really too sensitive for an outdoor camera. Even reduced by 50% it still gives excessive alerts from rain, shadows, birds, leaf movement and sudden light change such as lights from passing cars. This can be somewhat moderated by very careful positioning of the camera, serious reduction in sensitivity, turning off motion detection and leaving it only on person detection. Still good value at the price but a pity the software is not improved to give better control over motion detection. I have other Tapo cameras that give better control.

Tapo security camera
I haven't really got enough space to explain how good this camera is i will try.I have installed this camera and was simply blown away with its capabilities and the simplicity of setting it up its plug and play via wifi or ether net connection you can employ either option.The camera can also follow the action rotating a full 360 degrees with a tilt feature as well moving on its own if you enable the patrol feature the video quality is also excellent and also exceptional value for money i strongly recommend this camera if you just want to feel a bit more secure.

An excellent security camera.
Now first of all let it be known that I’m an absolute technodinosaur so anything involving Wi Fi, Internet and related issues is a foreign country to me. Having said that, this camera was a doddle to set up. App was easy to navigate and all pairing issues went like clockwork. The camera itself is excellent. Clear video and audio and picks up motion and persons even on low (3) sensitivity. Access to video clips on the app is straightforward. I’m using a 128 Gb card and there seems to be loads of storage and with loop recording the camera just records over earliest recordings. Owing to my total inability to understand smartphone technology and connectivity to the camera I’m left with one irritating issue which does not diminish my review of the camera, merely emphasises my down comings. The phone gives an audible notification of motion detection which is picked up on my Garmin watch. Yes, I completely get the irony of a techno numpty having a smart watch but it alerts my wife if and when I fall off my bike, an increasingly more common event these days. Consequently, as I live on a fairly busy thoroughfare the accursed phone and watch conspire to annoy me by audibly alerting me each time someone walks past, which is the camera’s function, but is somewhat distracting when it does so every couple of minutes. There is undoubtedly a way of switching off notifications, but it is thus far out of my area of competence to find it. Nevertheless, a cracking piece of kit and for the price an excellent buy. Update. After a few months of use I continue to be impressed by this camera. You get used to the notifications and find them useful after a while. The video quality is very good. I must, though, give a resounding thumbs up to Tapo Customer Support. They are second to none in my opinion. I’ve contacted them a couple of times on technical issues and their response has been swift and efficient. Answered my questions with expertise and straightforward advice. Excellent.

Excellent camera for home security.
A very good quality external camera. I wanted something to monitor my vehicles on the driveway and this didn’t disappoint. Easy set up with motion detection and exceptional image quality. All features are accessible from the app on your phone and any captured videos can be easily downloaded. Subscribe for unlimited storage capacity or use memory card in the unit.

Highly recommend because they’re affordable and user friendly.
Superb cameras. We have 5 and bought a 6th. Pros:- 1. Clear images 2. Reliable motion detection 3. Short cables can be replaced with longer ones from Amazon 4. Adjustable camera image i.e. you can turn the camera upside down and flip the image. 5. Full colour or black & white available 4. User friendly - both app and camera functions. Easily adjustable. Cons:- 1. the lead is chunky and can’t be removed if you don’t need them for outdoors connection. We only use one portion of the power lead and the other unused part has to be pinned out of sight. Not an issue for us because we use them indoors and pointing through windows. 2. Short power supply cables (replaceable). 3. The back of the memory card compartment is difficult to remove and the screws can get stuck. Be very careful when first removing them and needs replacement ones with stronger screw tops or the tops will wear down after a few turns and you’ll struggle to get the screws out. 4. Mic feedback if close to the cameras. Just make sure you’re not near when testing the mic or looking at footage.
