Tapo TP-Link Smart Video Doorbell Camera with Chime, Battery or Wired, 2K QHD Color Night Vison, 180° Ultra-Wide Head-to-Toe View, Ring Call, Smart AI Detection, 2-Way Audio, Up to 512 GB SD, D225

Great doorbell camera. The video quality is very clear and it picks up both people and pets accurately, which is really useful. One of the best things is that there’s no monthly subscription required, so you get the features without extra costs. The battery life has also been excellent and lasts a long time between charges. Setup was quick and the app works well. Overall, very impressed and would definitely recommend.

I'm blown away by the quality of this doorbell! The video quality is superb! So much better than my Ring Pro Wired that this replaced. The plug in chime is really good as it's physically small. It's very loud though and you can change the volume and ringtones to your liking. The fact you don't need to pay for a subscription is the big selling point. The field of view is large - it records my entire cul-de-sac. The notification time from being pressed to the chime ringing and your phone notification is almost instant and I love the fact it brings up a phone call on your phone to answer. The 24/7 recording is exactly what I wanted too. Top all of this off with the fact it is an absolute bargain price and I can't think of a reason not to buy it.

Love tapo products, not only due to being able to use a microsd but for their seamless easy to use app. This is a great doorbell - not good for long distance. However the battery lasts a while and changing doesnt take long at all! 4 hours maybe. There's also a lot of security when it comes to pulling it off - you need a screwdriver to unlock it. Love it!

Added this to my collection of Tapo related goods and I am happy to say that it works flawlessly! Easy to set up via the Tapo app and the picture quality is astounding for not just what it covers, but for what it captures. It even set up the internet connection without me having to do anything other than tap 'ok' - it was that simple! Easy to pair up with google home (so far) and I need to dip more into that area to see what it does connect to. I get notifications on the device I've set it up to - silent ones, so a message will pop up on the screen to inform me that activity has been detected. I love the battery life too - my previous doorbell camera had to be recharged so often it spent most of it's life off the door. No subscription fees either - pop a micro SD card in it and it will capture activity on it, or you can watch on your device and you can record straight to your device (not good if you only have limited space available). Either way, I do wish I'd bought this FIRST.

Love this doorbell, it was my second attempt at buying one, returned the first. It works really well even with my poor quality wifi. I attached it to Alexa and found the app brilliant and easy to follow for set up. It's perfect for me as I'm disabled and it takes me a while to get to the door. I use the call feature where it calls my mobile, which I find very easy to use and allows me to speak to the caller, very clear sound and great picture quality, can also leave a message that operates when you're not there to tell couriers where to leave your parcels, love it! Battery life shows on the app so you know when to remove for charging!

This was my 6th tapo product and I always fined them excellent value for money, it's half the price of some other ring doorbells and with a memory card slot no need to subscribe to anything which makes it cheeper still, you can review the footage directly from internal storage free on the free tapo app . Picture is great quality day or night! Fantastic product.

Good points - free to use, no subscriptions and storage on an SD card is a huge bonus. Links to all other Tapo products and use my existing hub as a chime and Alexa announcements elsewhere in the house. Good enough picture quality for nearby images. Bad points - battery life is awful, I have turned down the motion detection to lowest and still only get around 3 days on a full charge. Speed of connecting to the phone when the “call” comes through can be a bit slow sometimes. Overall it’s decent if you don’t mind constantly charging - maybe get a solar panel for it.

I have tried other well known brands but so far hands down this one has to be the best. Set up was simple and installation took all of 15 minutes. The bell is a lot smaller than the other brands yet has a lot more features, so far connecting with the bell is pretty much instantaneous and the view is very clear. Night views are in colour and movement detection is very quick, I know when someone is approaching the front door well before they get to it and my drive is only 5m to the door. The zoom in feature is incredibly good but the wide view allows me to see any items left on my front step. You can even set lines and the camera notifies if anyone crosses the lines. All in all a great bell and camera but the best is that if you insert a sim memory card there is no need to pay for storage of recordings.

It’s okay

Antes tenia un timbre Ring, no funcionaba como debía, tenia problemas de señal débil WiFi. se perdían notificaciones. Cambie a timbre TP-Link Tapo, y ahora funciona excelente, buena imagen, capta señal WiFi sin problemas y las notificaciones son inmediatas. Muy recomendado

Excellent buy. I Bought this to replace my ring door bell because I saw no reason to keep a subscription for a door bell. Installation was easy just like my other TAPO security cams. Picture quality and frame is way better than the ring. And I like that it came with a Chime.

Very Good Video Doorbell. Battery Life could be better as it lasts 25 days only.

My Remo+ stopped working, so I bought this Tapo camera doorbell to replace it. It was easy to configure. It takes a little getting used to the way the app is setup, but it has everything I need. It doesn’t require a subscription— which is great! I bought an SD card and save everything locally. It had specific detection for people, vehicles, packages, and motion. I purchased the hardwired version, but it also charges via usb if you don’t want to hardwire it. If you want non-stop detection, you need to hardwire it. The quality of the picture is very good. It has infrared night vision. Plenty of features for simple home security. I would buy it again. I recommend it.
