4K Security Camera FAQ

What is the difference between 2K and 4K security cameras?

The main difference between 2K and 4K security cameras lies in their resolution, which affects image clarity, detail, and coverage. 4K security cameras offer four times the detail of Full HD and significantly more than 2K. This makes them ideal for capturing fine details like faces or license plates, even at a distance. Additionally, 4K cameras often provide a wider field of view, allowing you to cover larger areas with fewer cameras, making them a popular choice for maximum security and efficiency.

How much data does a 4K security camera use?

Higher-resolution cameras naturally consume more data. A single 4K security camera recording continuously can use approximately 300–500 GB of storage per month. However, enabling motion detection and recording only when triggered can significantly reduce both data usage and storage needs. At Tapo, we provide flexible storage options, including local SD card storage and Tapo Care cloud services, allowing you to choose the solution that best fits your security and data management requirements.

Are 4K security cameras worth it?

4K security cameras are ideal if you need precise detail in complex environments, such as capturing license plates at a distance or clear facial features in busy areas. They also future-proof your setup, ensuring compatibility with evolving tech standards and larger displays, and perfect for long-term, high-security needs.

How far can a 4K security camera see?

A 4K camera can capture clear details at greater distances, typically up to 100 feet (30 metres) in daylight for facial recognition and even further for general motion. Exact range depends on the lens, sensor quality, and lighting, but 4K resolution offers significantly better clarity at distance compared to lower-resolution cameras, ideal for wide or outdoor coverage.

Do I need a 4K monitor for a 4K security camera?

You don’t necessarily need a 4K monitor as footage can be viewed through the Tapo app or on standard screens. However, using a 4K display allows you to experience the full level of detail and ensures better image clarity when zooming in, which helps review key footage.
