I don’t have yet any preferences. Cheap, easy to set up, secure. What do you use and can recommend?

    Reolink cameras are twice the price of the Tapo ones in my area…

      And probably four times the quality. If I could go back in time and choose Reolink for every camera I have, I would. In a heartbeat.

        I’m pretty happy with the 2K footage on mine.

      I’ve never used either, so I can’t speak to their actual quality, but cheaping out on cameras defeats the purpose of getting cameras if the footage is too grainy or blurry to be used for anything.

        The wireless Reolinks are not great. Like, nothing against the camera itself, however, the WiFi antenna must be smaller than the one in my watch. The range is truly abysmal.

        Tapo ones are perfectly fine, good quality all around, but it’s important to specify that I have experience with external, solar powered Reolinks and indoor Tapo, so it’s a bit of a different category.
