may i ask, does it need to be plugged always to be used? or does it have built in battery
*I like the pan and tilt feature. great **Newest.Technology** camera!*
pan and tilt has been out for the past two decades on cameras. Far from new.
This is a great review! You should be applauded. Believe me. I watch a LOT of YT including reviews; you'd be amazed how many people don't even cover the obvious things, whereas you answered almost every question I had going into this video. To get this camera for only £27 and all those features is incredible. Thanks!
Excellent in depth review. Maybe the only bit missing is the length of the power cable, always useful to know. From my experiences with other cameras being able to zone an area is extremely useful, glad to see it's available with this model.
Thank you! I'll remember to mention this in future reviews 👍
@@BoxCoUkwhat's the length then? 😅
Length lol !! ?????
Very good review, told me everything i needed to know ordered mine yesterday and it arrives tomorrow i wanted to see all the features before i receive it! thank you
My only gripe with this is with the "live view", it only let's you view for only 2-5mins then you need to reconnect again to monitor what is happening on the area you placed your camera.
Is there any solution to this?
?
This was very thorough and helpful! Thank you for considering the many use cases
How do I connect two of these cameras I only have access to one of them at a time
Does the Sanddisk card support loop recording in this camera?
Very useful review thanks. Agree power cable length info would be useful to add. Question, an Issue I've often had with existing Tapo cameras is, compared with even other tp link brands such as Kasa, there are often times when the access to cameras is slow/ long wait time, either in trying to access the camera or the memory, through the app. It comes back with time but it's very annoying and inconvenient whilst trying to monitor. It's not all the time, but frequent enough to notice, and more frequent than our other camera systems, including Kasa. Assume that's still a problem with this camera from Tapo? Others also have this issue?
Thanks for a great review. All the info I needed to make a choice.
Good Job! I brought 2 Thanks
Hello, do the 2 cameras link to the 1 app so you just easily switch?
Awesome review thanks
Power cable is about 3M long.
Can you access single camera from multiple phones/users (for example, by all family members) ?
That's my concern too
Just got the camera last week and can confirm you can either share the link for shared access or provide your login info. Difference is the link will have limited access (I'm guessing general controls) while allowing other devices to use your login info will have multiple devices having access to the controls.
Hope this helps.
Fantastic explaining. Tapo c210 Automatic patrolling rotates only once and stops, what should be done to keep the patrolling automatic full day. Thanks
Detailed review... thanks ma'am !
Thank you very much, you made a usefull video describing exactly what I've looking for 😘
No problem 😊 Thanks for watching 👍
Great value for the money I got one great review thankyou
Is the the device wireless. Meaning can you charge it up and use it without the wire?
No
Excellent review, thank you! I have the C200 for my elderly mother and am very happy with it, but now need one for my husband's bedroom. I wonder what the difference is between the C200 and the C210? I can't find a difference.
Good information - my 2 observations are : 1. If you on holidays for extended periods , can you delete past days/hours ect of data so the card doesn't fill up ? 2. The 'theft mode alarm seems a bit odd in that the recording is held on the device, so all the intruder needs to do is either unplug and take the camera or unload the SD card. What do you think ?
I read somewhere that if it runs out of space it deletes old footage and records new footage. Which is good and bad. And your 2nd observations is what I was thinking too lol. You'd have to kind of hope that person breaking in doesn't know about the tp link sd slot
@@Semaj97 the SD recording thing concerns me too. Does it also record through the WiFi to TP Link to the app on my phone? Maybe on TP Link cloud?
Otherwise do we need to hide the camera so the thief doesn't see it and steal the SD card or the whole thing?
@@Google_Does_Evil_Now if you use their (paid) cloud service it’s saved in the cloud, otherwise just locally yeah
@@netlob If it could save the recordings also on NAS (Network Attached Storage) like MyCloud from WD that would be great.... Like a backup....
Do you need to be connected to the same WiFi that the camera or you can be outside and see what's happening at home in your phone
What wasn't mentioned is the cloud subscription necessary to access all features.
From How many mobiles we can see live feed?
Thank you for this great review. I wonder though, is it possible to save videos on mobile phone without subscription?
Great and thorough review.
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Can it notify me someway remotely (email would be fine, or a notification in the app) in case of a detected intruder?
The app features and UI look very similar to the Xiaomi Mi security camera.
this video is very helpful very informative thank you but i have one question is all data are recorded in this memory card and how can i delete some records
Storage is one of the problem for the cctv camera's if you want to have a peace of mind without worrying your storage,pair this device with NAS Synology or Qnap.Thanks
Depends on the purpose I guess . Just like my dashcam, I use in loopmode. If nothing happened I dont need the footage anymore
Excellent review. Thanks for this. I'm now sure that this is a good option.
That was an awesome review. Thanks. I am buying one soon.
Is it possible to record video directly in mobile with app ?
Yes
In the v380 app of other cam model, only possible to record without audio on the phone. I didnt use cloud service.
So I just used the free playback on phone via sdcard instead of cloud, and then recorded with screenrecorder if needed some footage with audio
This video was really helpful, thank you.
THX for review. Does it record the sound the same time it record video?
It does
the sound is really bad. worse than old mp3 players with microfone feature. do not buy this one for sound recording, it's a mess
Thank you, that was very informative. Helped me to make a buying decision.
Thank you, that was helpful to understand the product. doest it support object tracking?
Movement detection only it seems
Does it connect back to the wifi network once the power goes and comes ?
what happens if an intruder steals the camera with the SD card inside.
so if someone enters the room he can just take the camera with him and thats it? is it possible to store videos online, to some remote location?
Hi, yes, technically someone could just take it. But essentially the motion detector alerts you when someone enters the room and you can see the feed live. If you're lucky to catch them in time you could record your own screen to get a quick remote back up. But no, sadly, there is no way to store footage remotely.
So it looks like we need to hide the camera or disguise it somehow maybe behind some flowers or material. I saw one that was in a flower pot with a fake flower around it.
Very good in depth review
Have the cam zoom funktion identisch to Modell c200
The one thing you didn't cover is subscription requirements. Does this come with a scription free service?
Yes optional, subscription allows storage on cloud not just micro SD card and subscription allows other extras
Does it activate and record with motion? Can you save videos to your phone instead of sd card ? Because if someone gets into your business or home they can just take the camera and evidence....
How is the recorded sound? Is it clear?
can it be view live with Windows laptop
Can I use this as baby monitor? Does it make noise while moving?
theres an option for baby cry detection in the settings
Is it a must to have wifi? Or will it still record without it?
WiFi is for online review only.. It still record with or without wifi
can we see live video if we are outside and on mobile data ?
Yes
Hi..how many smartphones can be use to register in the app? Or can we give permission for other phones to view the camera? Thnks
User manual says 2 users can have access to the cameras through the app? Does it mean 2 users at the same time because I need 5 users to have the access in total but don’t mind if the maximum number of ppl who can view it at any given time is 2.
Believe only two devices can have access at all
I have never been able to find the footage recorded to the card.
whats the length og the power adapter cable ?..thanks for the video
Does it record in loop like it overwrights the old parts of its videos?
Is it accessible through online on live feed?
yes
Will I have to get an Alexa or Google home for this security camera to work
Hi! No, you don't need Alexa or Google Home to run it. It uses the TP-Link Tapo App 👍
Is there any subscription fees?
can monitor anywhere by internet?
Yes
How many days can a 256 GB SD card record?
Very detailed review. Thanks. Please can you confirm if i can view the live footage when i am away from home using my mobile data? Thanks again.
Hi! Yes you should be able to review the footage away from home as long as your camera is connected to the WiFi where it's situated 😊
Thanks for the detailed review, the issue is if by any reason the camera is disconnected from wifi you need to come back home to connect it again it won’t connect automatically back to the wifi …..
If I am Wrong please advise
Thanks a bundle 😊
Can people talk to the camera and the person on the phone hear it? Or it's just one way around?
Two way
How can you download a clip to your phone?
Excellent night viewing without having infra red lights if putting next to glass window no reflection in window obscuring view
Olá, existe alguma forma de deixar aparecendo a imagem dela no meu computador direto? ai deixar um monitor especifico só pra isso conectado ao meu computador. existe algum aplicativo ou site que faça isso?
Excellent review, thank you very much!
Can't find how to flip the image. Can you help?
In this video or the other video she shows an option on the settings for Flip in the app.
which is better tapos or wyze? thanks
Thanks for clean experience. In Tapo C 210 Automatic cruse stoped after only 1 Rotation . What to fo for continuous.
Probably wear motor quickly to constantly pan
Is camera need to connect power all the time to record? what if poercut
Can this record non stop? I hate the idea of motion/sound detect
Can certainly record onto a memory card non stop as well as having motion detection working or not
Can I see what’s happening at my home when I’m at work on the app?
no
@@ktm640lc4BGD yes you can ya daft fool
Why do you say no? Pretty sure answer would be yes provided it's connected to WiFi at home
Can u view over the web or only local wifi
Only using mobile phone over the web via app not computer or tablet
how to turn off the 'tap to refresh' option in tapo camera when I'm live watching camera through tapo app?
it's really irritating, please suggest.
Any chance u can tell the about the power source cable? What size is the pin u plug in to the camera. As I need a extension wire to and from the power source
hello can tapo c200 stills record ( with s card) even if the power is cut off??
Does it have built-in storage and battery ?? that allows them to record for a set amount of time after the power has gone
No battery in it
Good review can you use it inside to look through your window rather then having one outside or will the glass window obscure video quality
It should work fine looking through a window. Location will effect it to an extent if the window gets a lot of direct light or a lot of animal activity etc but it should be fine.
Can you connect to your Amazon fire tv or an Amazon fire or eco pad as a bigger screen than phone.
hello, with a SD card of 256GB how many hour can I record in a 1080P??
Great review! Does anyone know if this camera also records sound? (Will the video output recording include sound??) thanks
Yes is recording the sound.I farted one day and i could listen my fart from work as it was recorded.
It's true, I heard it too
Hi. Im curious. Does the location of the camera itself needs wifi connection? or just the phone?
The camera needs to connect to your Wi-Fi in order for you to view the camera using the app on your phone.
If you connect the camera to your Wi-Fi then you open the app on your phone and the app on your phone and the camera can communicate to each other. Then you can see the video or the photos.
Can we use this camera with mobile hotspot plz tell me...
How does it sync up. No mentioning on how to set it up
Have to connect camera to WiFi browser with WiFi box password
all good but what happens if the thief steals the camera? the data of the person who stole it would be lost along with it, there is no way to have a dvr like hikvision in a security room so the data is safe
could you pls advise if there is any camera like this l could use outside,.. installing it onto my low roof. l am using my sons account and am not tech-savvy,.. so would have to to get someone to install it. Thank you.
Can it connect on 5g internet?
It needs WiFi ? So it means that it will lose connection if I bring my phone outside my house
I'm not completely sure as I've not tested it thoroughly but I'm sure it still works as long as the camera is connected to the WiFi. Need to test it properly though
Is it working even outside the country?
@@rhyshughes3901 thank you. This is so important to know.
If they enabled motion record and send to email/something then this camera would sell millions.
Just need that feature.
i bought this seems it only records during motion or person detected
Hi...where does it store the video? on the micro sd card for 24*7 or just motions? or does it store on cloud?
Hi, it just stores the data on the micro SD.
This is very important to know.
There is cloud as well as sd card.
@boxcouk Wrong
Does the camera have the cloud storage option? Paid or free?
Yes paid £2.99 month 1 device
great review
Thanks 😊
Madam 210cammara support power bank or no india
the wording is a bit confusing, does the alarm automatically go off or do you have to activate it when motion is detected
Optional
hi i just want to ask because I bought a tapo c210 and when im in talk or call and press the back button there is sounds like "TOK" do you think its normal?
can i used this tapo cctv without tapo care subscription?
do you have to pay a monthly subscription for this to access your files etc
No as it saves the video footage to an internal SD card that you copy the files over to your computer from.
Can fast forward recording at 16x like in xiomai mi camera 360 ?
Very informative!
Tc70 or c210 which is best?
Hi. Can you move the camera by swiping on the mobile screen?
No by using pan and tilt control pinch screen to zoom in
