The TP-Link Tapo C100 is the better everyday security camera, winning on price, a better owner rating, a 2-year warranty, storage flexibility, RTSP and a wider alert set. The Eufy 4G Camera S230 still has the off-grid brief: weather resistance, 2K video, color night vision and GPS over 4G LTE, so it watches places a home router never reaches, at the cost of a SIM and no RTSP. Pick the TP-Link Tapo C100 for indoor Wi-Fi monitoring; pick the Eufy 4G Camera S230 when the camera has to live on cellular.
