Which one should you buy?

For most Australian homes the Tapo D205 at ~$66 is the easiest yes - 2K, a 160-degree head-to-toe view, free on-device AI detection and no monthly fee. Spend up to ~$175 on the Tapo D235 if you want a 180-degree ultra-wide view, a longer 210-day battery and a chime in the box. The eufy S220 at ~$257 is the safe pick if you want the most battle-tested option, with more than 17,200 ratings behind it.
