  • In this video I look at the new TP-Link Tapo C200 Pan and tilt wifi camera. No hubs or extra devices are needed you put it on your home wifi via the Tapo mobile app and then you can view the camera from your phone. It has 360 degree horizontal and 114 degree vertical pan and tilt and 1080p resolution. It also has night mode.
    With the app you can view the camera real time and setup motion detection and notification. It also ha sound and light alarms on the camera so you could frighten someone away. There is also two-way audio so you can talk to the person on camera and you can hear them. It has a microSD card slot for storing video clips and works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
    You can wall or celling mount it with the supplied kit
    In the video I unbox the camera, set it up with my phone and see what it can do.

    Thanks for the review. Next time, can you do a bit on the playback UI please? While that's more of a review of the app, it's important to know how easy and accurate it is to use. I own a couple of different IP cams, and each app I use has good/bad points when using the playback features. Would be nice to see this aspect fully covered in a review of this security cam.

    I am looking for a camera to monitor my apartment door so i will place it on the ceiling or on the wall. The problem is i will need a long electricity cord (at least 5 meters long) to reach the nearest plug. How long is the cord that comes in the box? Is a longer cord available to buy separately?

Its the 2nd micro sd card I have purchased from a Samsung store as I thought the first one I had could have been fake as it was from Ebay. It usually happens after a week or so of use.
