4K Outdoor Pan/Tilt Wireless Security Camera, Solar Charging, C660 KIT

Update: june 6, 2026 Still running strong. My neighbor kid hosed it down with water but it still seems to be holding up without any issues. Impressed. Ill update if I notice any issues. ---------- Original review: I’ve been testing out the Tapo C675D, and it’s been awesome. I have other tapo cameras but they're all wired. This is my first solar security camera. If you hate dealing with wires, the solar panel is amazing. You just set it up and completely forget about cable management or charging batteries. The dual lens setup is a huge win. I have one lens pointed straight at my backyard and the other covering the side yard, so there are zero blind spots. Because it uses 24/7 timelapse instead of massive video files, it barely takes space. You get way more days of saved footage on a single SD card. HOWEVER the downside is also the time lapse. The continuous recording isn't normal, smooth video. I'd definitely prefer a standard video feed, but honestly, getting weeks of extra saved footage totally trumps that. Final Verdict: if you want total coverage without drilling holes for cables, this thing is a no brainer. Trading super smooth video for tons of extra storage history is well worth it.

I installed one camera about two weeks ago. I charged it per the instructions before I put it up. The solar charger has maintained a charge about 90% of capacity and I have not had to recharge the camera. The picture quality is great but I am not comparing it to anything else yet. My only concern is that it can be easily removed by an intrucder if they can reach the device. I mounted my camera up about 10 or 11'. I liked the fact that you can record to a mini SD card and/or subscribe to the company service for about $3+ per month. You can also talk to someone/intruder in you own voice or use a recorded message. I have not had an incident since installing the camera

So far the camera is great! We’ve had it a little over a week and it functions really well. We purchased it because a predator was killing our chickens. Since installing the camera we’ve been able to identify a family of foxes as our culprit and with the help of the movement notifications, we’ve been able to run outside and scare them away. As such, our sightings have greatly decreased and we haven’t lost any more chickens. I also like that it has two way audio, a light, and the image quality is pretty decent, even at night. I do agree with other reviews that the solar panel that comes with the cam is a little underpowered. It was only charging 4-5% each day, even though the mounting location gets several hours of morning sun. If you have the perfect location and sun exposure, it might work better, but definitely doesn’t live up to the 45 minute charging time as advertised. I decided to buy a universal 6watt panel from Amazon for about $15. So far we’re getting charged consistently to 97% before sundown. I’d like to reach 100%, but I’m satisfied that the camera will function at the current rate.

It seems to work well and the solar panel has kept it charged so far. It sometimes has trouble with the network which I assume is due to how much bandwidth 4K requires. Unfortunately the only other setting is 720p. I also don't really see much quality difference between it and my 2K plug in Tapo panel/tilt camera and the angle of view isn't as good. There haven't been any false alarms even though I have it set to detect motion. I wish it would tilt up just a tiny bit more than it does but it's fine 99.9% of the time. I'd say it's great for most people who need a solar pan/tilt camera.

Overall, this camera delivers excellent value for the price 👍. It’s not perfect, but it absolutely gets the job done. Setup was straightforward, and I’m using an SSD to record footage, which works reliably 📹. The app is feature-rich, almost to a fault. There’s a bit of a learning curve at the start, but once you get familiar with it, everything functions as expected. Now, let’s be honest about the downsides. There are some mechanical quirks and performance limitations, but nothing that breaks the core experience. The biggest issue, and this is important, is the mounting bracket design ⚠️. The attachment system that holds the camera is simply not robust. It connects the camera to a plastic mount that attaches to your surface, but: -The bracket comes loose too easily -The clips feel cheap and poorly engineered. -There are two brackets involved, and neither inspires confidence. This is an area that needs serious improvement in future versions. On the wireless solar panel model, battery performance is very good🔋. Mine has charged up to 95%. After cleaning the solar panel (which initially only got it to 82%). Positioning can also impact battery charging via the solar panel. 👉 Bottom line: Despite its mechanical flaws, I still highly recommend this camera. It offers solid functionality, great features, and strong value for money. Fix the mount, and this would easily be a 5 plus-star product. Updated: April 20. Now up to 100% on the battery from the solar panel. I wish it would record when there is a SSD, and no wifi.

This camera is the best of a variety of security cameras I've bough recently. The solar panel keeps it fully charged, the motor allows a wide field of view and the image quality is good. I have it connected relatively far from my router and despite that, I have not had connectivity issues. The unit is solid, and I'm confident it will hold up to the elements like other Tapo cameras I have. Everything needed to install it to a wall (in my case, masonry) is included. I opted for cloud storage but if you don't, you can still insert a memory card. Setup is quick and easy, and you can configure preset targets for quick panning.

I now own a half-dozen Tapo cameras - they're amazing! Setup is easy and access via the apps (iphone/ipad) is equally easy. This particular model is extra awesome as solar powered (and have never had a power issue - never) and it has very impressive Intelligence in selecting what parameters you want it to alert you about if you choose that setup, else will record everything and it can easily tell a person, from a pet, from motion in general. The infrared and night viewing is everything you'd want. Overall the price is competitive across the Tapo line. Buy it - no regrets!

I'm tossed up about these cameras. They do work well on solar, I've never had to charge any of them after many months of use. They work pretty well with live video, but when I try to play back from the app, it's not a great experience. I bought name brand video rated microSD cards, but the video is always choppy. I can't blame wifi as my live video is not bad, so I think the SD storage is just not good. I am not willing to add yet another subscription service and was really hoping these would suit my needs, but they seem to have maybe gone cheap on the storage processing to try to push you to cloud services. Wifi cameras can be jammed easily now so I like the idea of onboard storage, but between the video quality and the lackluster scrolling/search function in the app, it's a big meh. I didn't use the cloud monitoring, so I can't comment on that. The motion detection is a bit weak (so was Ring!) as they do miss boats going by my dock. I live on a canal so the speed limit is 5MPH max and I've seen boats go by undetected even though I have it set to record all motion. On a positive note, they are easy to set up and the app can notify you of motion. I disable the motion as they do pick up squirrels, palm tree fronds and other irrelevant things even on person detect mode, but that seems to be the case with most wifi cameras. My plan is to run ethernet cable once it cools off a bit in Fall and just use POE network cameras and a big DVR that records everything and lets me scroll it on my laptop if needed. I had a wired setup years ago and it worked great. Wifi is so much easier, but wired is the most reliable.

Excelente, gran cámara, excelente atención y seguimiento por parte del vendedor. Muchas gracias.

ممتازة تصوير روعه وتسجيل كامل الأحداث بس يكون اشتراك في التسجيل السحابي انصح بالكاميرا مممتازة

I am completely in love with the Tapo 4K Solar-Powered Outdoor Camera! From the moment I installed it, it has exceeded all my expectations. The 4K image quality is crystal clear, even at night, and the solar power feature means I don’t have to worry about charging or battery replacement — such a game-changer! Setup was super easy with the Tapo app, and the live feed is smooth and reliable. I also love the motion detection alerts — they’re instant and accurate, giving me real peace of mind about my home. The build quality feels premium and durable, perfect for outdoor conditions. Honestly, this is by far one of the best outdoor cameras I’ve ever used. I’d rate it 100/10 if I could — worth every penny!

Excelente producto, funciona super bien y sobre todo que no solo es una marca es una gran cámara.

This is an easy and intuitive installation. Works well with very good video quality. The real test will be this winter with short days and cold temperatures.
