    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.

    @GoogleUser-eo5cq Před rokem +7

    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?

Could it be the window hours when some people trying to invade phones. COuld it be true of the rumor that chinese app creators put a spyware to sneak in your phone otherwise what could be the reason why it freezes

      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.

Reason I ask is if I'm not able to respond to the motion event, will it fail to record and save the data so I can access it later via the app?

    • @BoxCoUk
      @BoxCoUk  Před 2 lety +4

      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.

    • @Google_Does_Evil_Now
      @Google_Does_Evil_Now Před rokem +2

      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.

    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 people talk to the camera and the person on the phone hear it? Or it's just one way around?

    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
