Digital IP security camera by TP-LINK, with Full HD+ image resolution at 3MP. For image transmission, it connects directly to an IP network, such as the Internet or a local network (LAN), allowing remote monitoring of the installation area via a computer or other device (smartphone or tablet) that has access to the same network. It offers up to 3 times better image quality compared to a 1080p resolution camera and is suitable for monitoring both professional and residential spaces, providing high image resolution with good detail capture of faces and objects.
Infrared Night Vision
It incorporates night vision functionality with infrared technology that allows monitoring of any activity in low light conditions or even in complete darkness.
Waterproof Protection
It features waterproof protection so you can install it outdoors safely and without being affected by weather conditions. Regardless of the weather or conditions, you will have a comprehensive view of your space whenever you want!
Two-Way Communication
The built-in microphone and speaker of the camera allow you to talk to visitors or your loved ones directly from your mobile phone.
Wi-Fi Connectivity

I have 4-5 TAPO, this specific one for 3 months. Perhaps the best model of it. Very few, maybe even no false alarms with settings on person detect. No complaints so far.
It replaced a Tapo C310. I got it on sale for under €50. For that money, it's okay.
Positives compared to the Tapo C310:
1. It has a slightly larger viewing angle.
2. Color image at night.
In addition to infrared LEDs for nighttime, it also has white LEDs that turn on automatically (minimum time 5min) or manually so you can see in color at night.
(The downside is that in automatic mode, the white LEDs turn on continuously when insects pass in front of the camera; there is no option to turn them on automatically only with human detection.)
3. It covers 360 degrees and has the ability to store positions with automatic position change at a set time interval.
Negatives compared to the Tapo C310:
1. It has an inferior detection system (at night it incorrectly detects a person instead of motion.)
2. It does not have line crossing detection.
(It is an extra detection; you draw a line in the image, and it activates when something crosses that line.)
3. It does not have LAN (if someone wants it.)
If you want to cover a large area, it would be good to have a fixed camera in the most dangerous spot and the rotating one as a helper.
(In general, I see that detection is better in the center of the image, and for this reason, a single camera does not do a proper job in a large area.)
Owner of a c500 and satisfied, I bought 2 c510w which were installed in a storage room and connected to the internet from a router with a SIM card from a red company. They work perfectly as cameras, but the TAPO app is also essential for viewing because there are equivalent ones that record every 3', 5', or 10' scene, so you lose basic minutes of time. Their price has gone up a bit, of course, but I will buy 2 more.
Good sound, acceptable image.
Regarding its price, it is a very good choice.
It shows a slight delay in motion tracking but nothing tragic.
It's been ten days now and they are working fine, one of the two after a power outage had the alarm activated upon restoration, which I have turned off in both since we are there, resulting in me hearing complaints from my wife because she got scared!
It has a very good image, very flexible, has LEDs and spotlights to be seen better at night, and for alarm it notifies an alarm at any time when something is detected to draw attention immediately. It has a memory card and recording capability of up to 512 capacity, which is very much, even 128 is enough and more than enough. It is fully waterproof, even when it is raining heavily, you can see very well and very clearly at least for 30 meters day and night. It is also connected to a control center, of course, everything has been recorded and stored
