Tapo D235 2K 5MP Doorbell Wireless 180°DFOV Ultra-Wide Video Doorbell Wireless or Wired,Battery 210 Day,Ring Chime Included,Head-to-Toe View IP66,TP-Link Free AI Detection,Alexa,No Monthly Fee

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love this doorbell — it’s incredible! The Tapo D235 2K 5MP Wireless Doorbell Camera has completely exceeded my expectations and is far better than my previous Ring doorbell. I’ve now switched fully to the Tapo range, and this doorbell just confirms why — no more monthly subscriptions and a much better experience overall. The picture quality is outstanding — true 2K clarity that’s a big step up from the 1080p Ring I used to have. The wide 180° field of view captures everything clearly, and the built-in light highlights the doorbell perfectly, making it easy for visitors to see even in the dark. I also love the fact that it’s wired with a battery backup and has an SD card slot in the rear, so even if the Wi-Fi or internet goes down, it still records locally — something many other models don’t offer. The AI detection is spot-on too, accurately distinguishing between people, animals, and vehicles so you only get relevant alerts. The setup was simple, the app is intuitive, and the overall build quality feels solid and premium. For the price, this is a brilliant bit of kit — reliable, smart, and subscription-free. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase — excellent product and a huge upgrade over Ring. Highly recommended to anyone wanting a high-quality, hassle-free smart doorbell

Had this up for a few weeks now and I love it. The fisheye lens sees everything! We have powered ours to take advantage of the 24/7 recording feature which is proving to be very handy. It works like a charm, the plug in bell rings, my phone rings, the audio is pretty good, the picture is really good and it's nice not to have to open the door to annoying cold callers etc!!! I must admit I went for a Tapo as I have quite a few Tapo devices, plugs/bulbs/cameras and therefore I knew setup would be effortless as I have the app running already. Still it's so easy to setup, connects straight to the wifi, picks up and movement of people and animals poking around outside my door. This is a quality item, and no subscription to pay!!

Good photography with straightforward operation. Clear sounding bell. Software is a bit clunky but that possibly down to me. Certainly easy to install.

I had a google nest doorbell for about 5 years and with yet another price hike for the annual cloud subscription I decided to get rid of it and swap for something more affordable in the long term. I didn't have to do too much research. 1 - I have a lot of TP Link products and know they're really good. And 2 - this doorbell consistently comes in the top 5 of best smart doorbell reviews. The main thing I was looking for was a subscription free product with no adverts in the app before being able to view the footage. Now I have the D235 2K 5MP Doorbell and the Tapo app, the only thing I'm annoyed about is that I didn't get it earlier! I've hard wired mine as I already had the wires in place. (the battery life sounds seriously impressive if you don't have the wiring already in place.) But I also really like the fact that if the mains power goes down, the camera can continue to work and will record to the memory card, so isn't reliant on a constant power supply or wifi/internet to keep recording. Although the google doorbell was able to use the original/traditional chimes in the house, I haven't been able to get this to work with this Tapo doorbell - despite the instructions saying it's possible. I tried every wiring combination that I could think of, but in the end gave up on it. It's not the end of the world as the included "smart" chime is really easy to set up, is very loud (volume control within the app) and is a great replacement for the old chime. I have also connected it to my google account, so the google devices around the house also announce when the bell has been rung. As with all TP Link and Tapo products, this is an absolute breeze to set up and was added to the app within a couple of minutes. The app guides you through the physical installation and again this was really easy with all the parts and accessories you might possibly need included in the box. The whole thing was set up and working within 10 minutes. Once working, the response time to view the footage in the app is outstanding. It's so much quicker than any other camera app I have used - including Google nest, Amazon Ring, Yi/Kami and Nooie. In fact, I was so impressed it's prompted me to now replace all the various cameras I have set up around the house with new Tapo ones - and move entirely to this ecosystem. The video quality is very good and easy enough to pick up details like faces at a distance and car number plates. The Ultra-wide view is great for being able to see parcels left by the doorstep - and with ours you can even see if the door is fully shut, so when you're out you can watch back to see if the kids remembered to lock the door! Without any doubt, the night vision mode is 100% better than anything the Google camera produced. I got this during a new year sale - but like sofas at DFS, I think it's pretty rare to not find these on some kind of offer - But to be honest, I genuinely think even at the full RRP, this is great value for money. Although initial set up is very quick, there are a lot of settings to go through to get everything right and as you want it, so I probably kept playing with various settings (detection modes, alerts and notifications etc) for another couple of days. I'm still not completely happy with some of the set up - I can view the footage on my Google Hub display screens by saying "hey google show me the front door" and it shows it fine, but I cannot get it to automatically display when the doorbell rings. So far I cannot work out if this is a flaw with Tapo or Google home, but either way the integration isn't perfect. It can identify humans, pets and parcels but has no facial recognition. So you won't ever get "Joe is at the front door" announced over your smart speakers as you can with other systems like google or Ring. Instead you get a fairly oddly worded "Person moving is at the front door", which isn't the best. So I might end up turning this notification off entirely. Overall though, this bit of kit completely gets my recommendation. It's good value, exceptional quality, a really good user experience and all subscription and ad free. Perfect!

This is the best doorbell I have ever owned, and I've previously used both Nest and Ring models. The single most crucial feature for my setup is the wide-angle lens. Since people approach my door from the right, not a straight line, this camera catches them long before they even get close, ensuring I never miss an approach—a critical upgrade from the competition. Beyond the excellent field of view, it includes numerous extra features that the others simply don't. The picture quality, day or night, is perfect and records in full color. Furthermore, if you choose to subscribe, the yearly cost is significantly cheaper than both Nest and Ring. I would never go back. While I miss the automatic push notifications/emails that my old Nest setup offered (the only minor drawback of this Tapo model), this doorbell is an easy 99% better than anything else on the market.

The chime I received has a UK plug which is a bit annoying

Tenho a Tapo D235 instalada há alguns meses e, no geral, estou satisfeito com a compra, embora haja alguns aspectos que poderiam ser melhorados. Pontos fortes: A qualidade de imagem é excelente - 2K 5MP oferece nitidez suficiente para identificar rostos e detalhes importantes, mesmo com alguma distância. O campo de visão amplo cobre bem toda a entrada. A detecção de movimento funciona de forma fiável e as notificações chegam rapidamente ao telemóvel. A instalação foi relativamente simples, especialmente se já tiver cablagem de campainha existente. A app Tapo é intuitiva e permite configurar zonas de actividade, sensibilidade e outras definições de forma prática. A comunicação bidireccional tem boa qualidade de áudio, permitindo falar com visitantes sem problemas. A bateria integrada garante funcionamento mesmo em caso de falha de energia, o que é uma óptima funcionalidade de segurança. A integração com outros dispositivos Tapo funciona bem dentro do ecossistema da marca. Pontos a melhorar: O principal inconveniente é a questão do armazenamento cloud. Embora ofereçam 30 dias de teste gratuito do Tapo Care, depois disso é necessária subscrição mensal para aceder ao histórico completo de vídeos. Sem subscrição, as funcionalidades ficam bastante limitadas. Seria preferível ter opção de armazenamento local (cartão SD) como alternativa. A visão nocturna, apesar de funcional, não é tão nítida quanto a diurna - em condições de pouca luz, por vezes custa distinguir detalhes mais finos. A resposta em direito pode ter alguns segundos de delay, o que ocasionalmente causa frustração quando se quer ver quem está à porta em tempo real. Conclusão: A Tapo D235 é uma campainha inteligente competente que cumpre bem as funções básicas a um preço razoável. A qualidade de imagem é muito boa e a fiabilidade é satisfatória. No entanto, o modelo de subscrição obrigatório para funcionalidades avançadas não me parece certo. Recomendo para quem procura uma solução funcional sem custos iniciais elevados, mas tenham em conta os custos recorrentes se quiserem tirar máximo partido do equipamento.

Ottimo campanello smart, con memoria interna, batterie e la possibilità di essere alimentato dall’alimentatore del vecchio citofono

Very happy - easy to install . Clear view and loads of functionality. Great !

It works as advertised
