The Samsung 256GB EVO Plus (U3, V30, A2, SDXC1) card is confirmed to be incompatible with all Tapo and Kasa cameras

This is a quote from tp-link.com/us/support/faq/3048/

Does anyone own this card and have experience with it? Could someone explain exactly why? What this incompatibility is and what the symptoms are? I happen to own this card, and the issues I’ve reported with the camera have nothing to do with it. Please share your experiences.

I believe this sd card is not designed for write-intensive devices like security cameras. You can actually find disclaimers in their warranty policy: "Warranty does not extend to dashcam, CCTV, surveillance camera, and other write‑intensive uses."
