Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better overall: Aqara Camera Hub G2H Pro or TP-Link Tapo C120?
The TP-Link Tapo C120 is decisively the stronger overall camera, winning on price, user rating, warranty, weather resistance, 2K video, color night vision, RTSP support, and alerts.

What is the biggest difference between the Aqara Camera Hub G2H Pro and the TP-Link Tapo C120?
The TP-Link Tapo C120 wins on nearly every measured spec, including sharper 2K video, color night vision, and weatherproofing for outdoor use, while the Aqara Camera Hub G2H Pro's one differentiator is its built-in Zigbee hub for bridging Aqara sensors.
