Tapo Matter Smart Plug

Overall Score2 of 10

2 of 10

As of Oct 2025, the Tapo Matter Smart Plug is no longer our recommended Matter-enabled Wi-Fi smart plug.

Although it is a nice device that shows a lot of promise, we have run into major issues with it connecting to routers and staying connected. The initial setup and use of the device was great, but over time we have had too many issues to continue to recommend this device. Hopefully Tapo works on these things and provides a fix through a future update.

Read why Matter is important in our dedicated article on the various smart home protocols.

Simple to install and connect, via Matter, directly to your smart hub and location, this is a U.S. designed smart plug from a trusted manufacturer. While you still may want to isolate this device from the rest of your network, as described in our step-by-step guide, it is a great choice for a WiFi plug.
