The TP-Link Tapo C100 is an affordable indoor security camera designed for users looking to enhance their home security without a significant investment. As part of TP-Link’s Tapo smart home line, it offers essential features typically found in more expensive models, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers or those new to smart home security.
$25-$35, making it one of the more affordable options in the market
The Tapo C100 stands out for its balance of functionality and affordability. It offers 1080p Full HD video, which provides clear imagery for most home security needs. The 105° diagonal field of view is suitable for monitoring medium-sized rooms, though it’s not as wide as some premium models.
One of its key features is the physical privacy mode, which allows users to cover the camera lens for peace of mind when privacy is desired. This addresses a common concern with indoor cameras.
The camera supports both local storage via MicroSD card and cloud storage options, giving users flexibility in how they store and access their footage. However, advanced features like continuous recording may require a subscription.
While it lacks some advanced features of pricier models (such as AI-powered person detection or pan-tilt-zoom functionality), the Tapo C100 covers the essentials of home monitoring, including motion detection, night vision, and two-way audio. Its compatibility with popular voice assistants adds to its smart home integration capabilities.
Overall, the TP-Link Tapo C100 is well-suited for those looking to start with home security cameras or add affordable monitoring to multiple rooms without compromising on basic functionality.
