Tapo 2K QHD C225 Pan/Tilt AI Home Security Wi-Fi Camera

Description

The Tapo C225 Pan/Tilt AI Home Security Wi-Fi Camera is an advanced, wired surveillance solution designed for indoor monitoring, ideal for homes, nurseries, and small offices. It features a 1/2.9″ progressive scan CMOS starlight sensor, capturing 2K QHD (2560×1440) video at up to 30fps, delivering crisp images with 1.7× more pixels than 1080p for enhanced detail. The starlight sensor and f1.6 large-aperture lens enable full-color night vision, while dual IR modes (850nm and 940nm invisible IR LEDs) provide visibility up to 30 feet (9m) in low-light conditions, with the 940nm mode avoiding red light glow for discreet monitoring, ideal for sleeping children or pets. The camera offers 360° horizontal and 149° vertical pan/tilt functionality with smart motion tracking at up to 120°/s, ensuring subjects stay in view without blind spots.

The camera supports Wi-Fi (2.4GHz) with 802.11b/g/n/ax protocols for stable connectivity. Free AI detection identifies people, pets, vehicles, baby crying, cat meows, dog barks, glass breaking, and line-crossing or tamper events, with customizable activity zones to minimize false alerts. Two-way audio with a built-in microphone and speaker enables real-time communication, while a customizable sound and light alarm deters intruders. The Tapo app (Android 5.0+, iOS 10+) supports live view, playback, configuration, and real-time notifications. A physical privacy shield can be activated via the app or a button on the camera to block the lens, ensuring privacy. Storage includes microSD cards up to 512GB (not included, equivalent to ~840 hours of 2K footage) and optional TapoCare cloud storage for 30-day video history. The camera integrates with Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, and Google Assistant for voice control and supports RTSP/ONVIF for third-party integration. The camera is praised for its sharp video, versatile AI features, and privacy shield, though it lacks Wi-Fi 6/WPA3 support, and some features like cloud storage require a subscription.
