However, the biggest difference between H500 and Eufy S380 is that HDMI is a video output in Tapo Homebase. Thus, you can place it on your TV console and connect it to television to see your camera feed.
For now, reviews on H500 are some more mixed, many users complain of connectivity and facial identification issues. We have to wait until more users test this homebase or TP-link, releasing some firmware updates to fix these issues before passing the decision.
