Product Information

Speaking of local storage, you’ll need to put a microSD card — up to 256GB in size — in the included hub. While I appreciate the option for local storage, I have mixed feelings about whether the hub should have a USB port to use an external hard drive, or if a microSD card is the way to go.

Due to both of the C420S2 cameras being battery-powered, you won’t be able to capture 24/7 video after enabling local storage — a feature that hardwired TP-Link cameras are capable of. TP-Link Tapo C420S2 review: Verdict Without Tapo Care, you can still livestream your camera’s feed, get instant notifications for motion events, two-way audio, set activity zones and use the local storage feature.

The lights aren’t very bright, offering just enough light to make whatever’s within a few feet of the front of the camera, but that’s about it. In other words, don’t expect the C420S2 to light up a porch, let alone a driveway or the side of your house. For that, you’d want something like the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro or the Wyze Floodlight Cam. TP-Link Tapo C420S2 review: Video storage You can control the overall video quality in terms of resolution at either 720p, 2K or let the camera automatically switch between resolutions on its own. In addition to video quality, you can also control the frame rate for each camera. Your options are 15 frames per second or 20 frames per second. The Tapo app notes that selecting 20fps can have an impact on battery life. That’s the same warning you get when switching from Auto or 720p video to 2K. During my time testing, I didn’t see any errant motion alerts from either installed camera. The only issue is that my dogs more often than not trigger a motion alert as opposed to an alert letting me know there’s a pet/animal in the camera’s field of view. There are even a few clips in the cloud storage of my dogs with the video labeled as having a person in it. I have a Yorkie and an English Bulldog. Neither are big enough to be mistaken as a person. Detección AI de movimiento con notificaciones. La IA inteligente identifica personas, mascotas y coches, y notifica a los usuarios según sea necesario. With the camera set to record at 2K/20FPS settings, videos looked smooth and clear. On my phone, I didn’t see much, if any, pixelation when watching clips. However, when viewing the same clip on a larger display, I could see some pixelation when I walked across or my dogs run across the camera’s field of view.That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it’s something to be mindful of when trying to determine where you’d install the cameras.

Gracias a la batería incorporada podrás colocarlas cámaras en cualquier lugar sin depender de enchufes. Both the washed-out look and pixelation during movement were less than what I experienced with the Wyze Cam V3 Pro placed in the same exact spot. Overall, I prefer the video captured on the C420S2 over the Wyze Cam V3 Pro. Visión nocturna a todo color.Graba videos con alta calidad de imagen y colores nítidos incluso de noche.
