Review: A great camera with expensive features for less! - A great security camera. Some of the standout features: super easy setup. Low lag and small size, easy to use and a feature I wasn’t even aware it had, when it detects movement it can track the subject automatically! It also has a private mode that you can automate when you arrive home and disable when you leave using a geofence. This physically positions the camera lens straight down that shows the folks in the room it’s disabled. Leave the house and it’s back up and patrolling. Very cool tech with high res 4k. Excellent value for the money!
Review: High quality cheap 4k camera - Super great and very clear. I love the app as well. It is so easy to setup and gives a great sense of security. The cable is very long too so you can place it almost anywhere. It is super cheap for a 4k camera but not too cheap where everything frustrates you. I do wish it could tilt down a bit further though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent camera
*by M***F on January 11, 2026*

I'm reviewing two variants of the camera below as Amazon did not allow me to separate the reviews for each product. This review is for the Tapo 2K QHD Camera: I would rate this camera as 5 stars. A wonderfully sharp picture. They do what I need. I have them in two rooms tracking movements, and detecting people. I have a small SD Card and record only movement. That works. It captures a few seconds before the movement starts and some time after the movement ends. I use the automation that stops the recording (privacy mode) when I'm home and starts it when I leave so that the sd cards will last longer, and the cameras aren't following me around when I'm in those rooms and so my housemates are not freaked out by the cameras. The cords are long (6 ft?). They are somewhat quiet when tracking. I plan on connecting them to Home Assistant. I have view the cameras using RSTP. The following review is for the Tapo 4K Camera: I would rate this camera as 4 to 5 stars. Note the limitation I mention below. A wonderfully sharp picture. I have it looking out my living room window. I set it to day mode to turn off the infrared to eliminate glare from the window. The street lights outside are enough to give me a meaningful image at night and the day picture is high quality. I also built a box around it so that only light that comes into the camera comes from outside. It does mostly what I need. I have it tracking movements, and detecting people. I record only movement. That works. It captures a few seconds before the movement starts and some time after the movement ends. The cord is long (6 ft?). It is somewhat quiet when tracking. I plan on connecting it to Home Assistant. I have viewed the camera using RSTP. The facial recognition has it recognizing myself, a housemate, and the landlord as they approach the house. They get about 10 to 15 feet of the camera looking out the window. Another housemate is not tracked. It seems he turns off the path before the camera is able to recognize his face consistently each day. My one disappointment is that on this camera, when I share the camera with others, and they install the Tapo App to make use of the shared camera, they are not able to get notifications from the Tapo App when it detects motion or people. (Other Tapo cameras do allow for notifications when viewing a shared camera on the Tapo app.) They are able to see a live view of the camera and see what has been recorded on the sd card on the camera. I am working on having a text message sent through Home Assistant or from my phone through Tasker to their phone when I get notified that a person is detected by the camera, so that they are notified as well.
