Very good for 21 euros that I got it. I also put in a memory card. One negative is that I can't save a video online, it only lets me when I'm at home. Kudos to Tako. The Xiaomi I had locked and requires a subscription, it doesn't accept a memory card....
This camera is amazing ! Reacts for every motion, detects the person. I can be anywhere and see what’s going on inside. Got it for 25 euro. I can’t Belive it. Absolutely worth the money !
I have bought 4 for the house, 1.5 years of use, and I am absolutely satisfied. It doesn't disconnect compared to other cameras I had in the past, I have also put in an SD card and it records 24 hours!
Very good camera in its category.
Good image during the day and at night.
Nice features. For what I need it for, it is just right. The microphone sounds decent.
Everything is fine, nice, easy connection at night, but....
To see what it has recorded, you need to pray, fast, and have a little holy water, just in case it works...
I press to see what it has recorded and I get network instability, what network instability... 4G+ with full signal on my network and at home also full signal...
Plus, if you want to access any video, you have to be connected to the same network as the camera. Something I find tragic...
Flawless camera, five out of five for me at this price! I wanted to install an alarm in my house and ended up getting this camera since it sends you a notification directly as soon as it detects movement and at the same time, you have recorded footage. The quality is decent, you can clearly distinguish faces up to 4-5 meters. The night vision is also very good. The two-way communication has a delay of about four to five seconds, but it is very useful in case you want to say something to your child while using the camera or in my case, when a friendly face entered my house on my behalf and I directed them by seeing their movements. The connection with the application was extremely simple, unlike the previous Xiaomi application which was overly complicated and didn't work half the time. I highly recommend it
Very easy to install very good image especially during the day at night black and white unless there is even a little dim light if it is in a corridor it is good to turn it 90 degrees sideways because it works better covers more space and a larger field take advantage of the side which is wider amazing product at a very good price for indoor space of course you can also use it in outdoor space but make sure it is well protected under a canopy so it does not get moisture and rain of course it is better when it is in outdoor space to go for the 300 or 500 series they are fully waterproof and do not understand anything from weather conditions the 300 series is fixed while the 500 and 510 and 520 series are rotating you have more possibilities the prices for the 300 series are around 10 to 12€ more while for the 500 series it is around 20€ more
I did not expect it to be so high quality. Okay, the truth is that the image quality is not crystal clear, but for its price, it has satisfactory quality both day and night. It also detects even the slightest movement and records automatically. Finally, it has a very good microphone and a very good and powerful speaker. I am completely satisfied with my purchase!
I have it installed for almost a week, it has a relatively good image for its price, currently immediate updates. I haven't looked into whether it has the ability to differentiate human movement from pets. If it does, it is particularly useful for those of us who have pets. Now I have it positioned relatively high so that it doesn't "read" the dog and constantly notify me. It also has an alarm, relatively powerful to surprise the uninvited visitor or until I put it in my pocket and leave!! The sound of conversations is highly satisfactory.
I have bought 2. Very good image and when it gets dark, it activates itself in dark mode so you can see clearly at night. Definitely a value for money choice. TIP: if you need to buy more than 1 camera, choose the same brand (not necessarily the same model) to have them on the same app
Very good indoor camera for its price. The image quality is very good with light and simply satisfactory at night.
The app is quite user-friendly and has many settings.

Very good choice for its price. It is used in a room to watch my dog when I'm away. Very clear image both day and night with a very small delay of less than 1 second. There is also the option to record with an SD card. I recommend it.
For the past 1.5 months, it has been covering the entrance of this specific area (photo). At first, with a connection through a mifi sim, I had some issues due to the disconnection of the mifi itself. Then, with a router with a sim slot from the same company, permanently connected to a photovoltaic inverter, the disconnections stopped!
In conclusion, I understood that in order for it to function properly and do what it can, it needs a basic stable internet... I repeat, a basic stable internet, not even perfect!!!
The speaker is impressively powerful, it picks up conversations from a great distance even if it's out of the camera's range. I don't even take into account the slight sound distortions due to air, I don't even notice them.
The tapo application is very good and detailed, but on the negative side, when the one-month trial of tapo care ends, it leaves a gap (it's very useful), and you either pay to have the convenience or you go with the limited settings, because without tapo care subscription, there is no possibility of AI detection or enriched notifications. So it limits the capabilities, and I didn't read anywhere in the manual how to do such a thing. (That's why only 3 stars).
Value for money.... Very good! I didn't expect it..... I've had it for 1 week, installation in 5 minutes very easily, Greek menu (some people need it). Good image at 720p that I have set both day and night! It loses one star because even though I'm not in the camera's area and I have put it in out-of-home mode, I don't receive notifications on my mobile for motion or person detection! Notifications only come when I open the app.
For the money, it's very good!!! It's worth its money... I bought it for the baby's room... It has a slight delay of one to two seconds on my wife's phone compared to mine, which is old and has a little more delay!!! However, it does its job decently!!!
As it was functioning, so to speak, it was malfunctioning and it stopped working properly. The red lights remain constantly on. We are talking about 6 hours of operation. Shame, it's not even worth its price.
The voice cuts off, I can't communicate with my grandparents while I'm watching them, huge delay in picture and sound, also the connection is constantly interrupted. Disgrace
For the money, it's perfect. The installation is very easy in 5 minutes. It includes 2 screws with plugs in the box to screw it to the wall if you want, and a very long cable with a plug. If you want, it can also work without an SD card. It has the option to only talk or make a call to communicate with someone in the area, it sends a notification to your mobile if it detects movement, and if you want, it also triggers a fake alarm from the camera's speaker. You can also exclude a certain area from what the camera sees in motion detection. A purchase without a second thought.
It has been operating for about a year. In terms of connectivity, it has not shown any problems so far. The picture, sound, and microphone are also working perfectly, while the app is very user-friendly. The only thing I would note is that because I have inserted and am using a memory card, it does not have the ability to detect people and therefore does not notify for any movement. A small inconvenience in order to become a subscriber ($3.79 per month). Hence, the lack of a star in the evaluation.
Very good for its price. Immediate notifications for movements in the area. Clear picture and sound. Sometimes the connection drops for a short time only (but it may also be due to my wifi)
Positive: The lens has a wide range. Relatively clear image. Accepts memory card. Has motion detection and has a Greek menu through the application.
Negative: The cameras sometimes disconnect or do not connect easily. (I have two cameras, with a stable connection to the internet 100 mbps).
update 18-07-22: From the three stars I had initially given, today I gave two, because the sound (memory card) is intermittent and muffled.
I have been using this camera for a year now to monitor my baby and the bedroom space in combination with a tablet. I won't say much. Easy connection (Android) and simple and understandable application. Excellent wifi reception. Very good image quality, comparable to more expensive ones, even in complete darkness. The sound is quite good. There is a delay in the video of about 1 second, which personally I find negligible. The construction is made of plastic, of course, but it looks and is durable. And finally, regarding durability... I will say the following. Because I didn't want to drill and screw it into the wall, since the solution is temporary and the child will move to another room, I placed it on a wooden surface with a thickness of 2cm and essentially created a base for it. I placed this on top of a radiator that was functioning normally in the winter (!). You can understand that the temperature of the camera was not just high... and yet it endured. It did not shut down even once and continues to work perfectly. Great value for money, and more, for me.
Very good camera for its price, very good image quality both during the day and at night. All my acquaintances who have experience with cameras were amazed by the image. It has its own recording system, of course, and the ability to insert a memory card, which you buy separately. You can also speak through the application. The application is very good, fast, and easy to install, even if you have no experience. I will make some observations for those who have the camera or want to buy it.
1. I have it outside the main entrance of the house, without it getting wet, of course. The camera is a few meters away from the main staircase, and when someone goes up, it does not send a notification unless they approach the camera very closely.
2. In the place where I had it, it could see a little bit of the main road. When a car's light hits it, it detects it as movement. Also, when there is wind and something moves, like a leaf or any other object, it also detects it as movement. So, you need to adjust it in a way that you don't have many objects around it (although I noticed that with the wind, small particles moving in front of the camera are also detected as movement, so I'm afraid that in the summer, with flies and mosquitoes flying around, it will send unnecessary notifications). Try to avoid unnecessary notifications and, if possible, have no objects around it.
3. If you want to monitor your pets and want to receive notifications, you need to place it at a low height, at the level of the animal, so that it can detect it and send you a notification. It does not detect anything at a higher level.
4. The camera can only be manually adjusted for height.
Update: After 1 year with cold weather, heatwaves, and other difficult conditions, everything is working fine. The only negative thing I found with this camera is that you can't hear the speech and dialogues clearly, even though it is very close to the camera. Despite this, the camera is worth it
The camera is for indoor use, but I placed it outside the house door to monitor the entrance. It doesn't get wet, of course. The camera is fantastic both during the day and at night. It slightly pixelates when zoomed, but it's not a serious issue, you can still see clearly. The camera doesn't rotate with the application, only manually. It connects easily with the mobile application. It's worth its money and more. I've had it for a few days, I will come back for more information. It also records on the mobile application and on the micro SD card. I will also get another outdoor camera from the same company. Quality
