Filipinos who wish to provide increased security measures for their homes at a budget-friendly price can now get the latest security camera from TP-Link – the Tapo C310.
Parents can now monitor their children with this affordable smart home security device from TP-link that packs tons of impressive features. The Tapo C310 has a 3MP ultra-high-definition camera for video recording to enable users with complete clarity to identify visitors. It has been designed to send instant motion detection notifications whenever the camera detects movement.
In addition, the camera can also be placed outside their home with its IP66 weatherproofing to make sure it doesn’t get damaged in the rain. It offers both wireless and wired connectivity options wherein users can connect to a network either via Wi-Fi or via Ethernet. Communication is also possible with this thanks to its two-way audio support with built-in microphone and speaker.
Nighttime visibility
It comes with advanced night vision capabilities that provide visibility up to a distance of 98 ft, i.e., 30m even in the dark. It is equipped with a sound and light alarm that gets triggered on detecting certain light and sound effects. There is support for local storage up to 128 GB via microSD card. However, there is no support for cloud storage which might be an issue for some in the long run. Moreover, its voice control features never fail to impress as it works really well with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.
What’s in the box?
The box includes TP-Link’s Tapo C310, a power adapter, an installation kit with anchors, waterproof seal, waterproof cable attachments and screws, along with a quick start guide and an installation guide. This simple and cute looking device sports the lens, infrared sensors and an LED indicator while there are moveable Wi-Fi antennas on both sides of the camera. The base of Tapo C310 features the built-in speaker, a microphone, and a slot for the microSD card. There are two cables on the camera – one for Ethernet and the other for the power cable, as the Tapo C310 cannot run on batteries.
Optimal recording
Recording on TP-Link’s security camera can be configured both for motion detection and constant, and users can also configure a recording schedule. The two-way audio quality on this all is good, and the volume is decently loud even when the camera is mounted at a height.
The 1/2.7″ sensor on Tapo C310 records video in 2304×1296 resolution at 15 fps while the focal length is 3.89 mm. An 850 nm infrared provides the night vision LED to provide clear and detailed black and white images in the dark. Also, users can zoom in by double-tapping or pinching-to-zoom. For the price segment it has been introduced in, the TP-Link Tapo C310 is an impressive high-quality Wi-Fi camera that doesn’t burn a hole in one’s pocket, especially with its 2-year warranty, and provides a great way to secure homes.
