AqaraSecurity Camera Hub Indoor G2H Pro, 1080p HD HomeKit Secure Video Indoor Camera, Night Vision, Two-Way Audio, Zigbee Hub, Plug-in Cam Compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant, Works with IFTTT

Having used this camera for several months now and still being pleased with and impressed by it I decided to write a short review.If you are looking for an Apple HomeKit compatible camera look no further!It has given me peace of mind when away from home to check in on my dogs.This camera seamlessly integrated with Apple HomeKit, and not only delivers crystal-clear video but also serves as a hub for my other Aqara devices. Its intuitive interface made for easy setup and management, while the advanced features like motion detection and two-way audio keep me connected and informed.As a very handy extra it serves as a siren when door sensors are triggered during the nighttime.This Aqara camera has impressed me so much that I have purchased several other of their products since.

This camera serves as a hub for all Aqara devices, ensuring almost instantaneous notifications to activity detected by other cameras and sensors in the Aqara family. Setup is a breeze using the Aqara app and the image quality is incredibly sharp - even when using night vision. There’s plenty of storage options, (MicroSD, NAS, Aqara cloud and, if linked to HomeKit, iCloud). The built-in speaker and microphone allows two-way communication and the optional alarms are frightening/irritating enough to scare the cat.I haven’t yet got to grips with the many settings and linking to Apple Home isn’t as straightforward as it should be, however this isn’t enough to mark the product down.Overall, this is one of a series of excellent smart home devices from Aqara and I was impressed enough with my first G2H Pro camera to immediately buy another. As alluded to above, I also use three window/door sensors to complement the cameras and it hasn’t been a waste of money.I hope the company considers outdoor cameras for the UK market soon.

I’ve been using this for a few days now, it’s working excellently with HKSV. The camera shows as three devices in the home app - the camera itself, a motion sensor and a security system. The security system can be set up with the Aqara app, but I haven’t looked too far into this as I’ve not used their app (other than to update the software of the camera). The motion sensor responds very quickly, usually within 2 seconds and the picture quality is good, especially when considering the price. I’m also not using the hub functionality (yet) as I do not have any other aqara devices, but I’m definitely going to be using this in the future. There is a multifunctional button on the camera that you can use to do a number of things, like link new devices or reset the camera, all without using their app - this is great if you plan to use with HomeKit. I would definitely consider this over the eve/Logitech offerings considering the price and functionality available.

I got this to install in the lounge as I need to be able to keep an eye on my mother who sadly has dementia when I am not in the lounge. It is connected up to my Apple HomeKit system so I am able to make sure things are ok when I am in the kitchen or upstairs (or even away from home via my iPhone).The picture quality is great and although I do not actually make use of it the night vision is astounding - when the room is in pitch darkness the camera produces a superb image.This gives me peace of mind to work around the house whilst being able to keep an eye things just in case.

Initially connected with minimal issues. Did a firmware update, after which it was no longer connected and wouldn't even stay on.Tried resetting it a few times but nothing.Returning to Amazon.

Easy to set up and use plus great picture.

Set up took 60 seconds in Home app. Easy. Picture quality is excellent and customisable notifications are superb. Live video and 10-days recordings on iCloud, no setup required , just works (no extra cost as I already pay for the 2TB option). I have this on landing window sill pointing out to driveway and works great. Will be buying a second one for back of house too!

I have three of these cameras. I don't use them for security, more just to keep an eye on aquariums and pets while away.I like them but they have a few areas where they could be improved.1) Power. These units use 5watt of electric. That's not a big deal (about £1 a month) but they seem to use that power even when in sleep mode. They are always warm. One would expect in sleep mode they go cold and their power consumption reduced?2) Quality. They could do with a tweak in picture quality. It is adequate and I get that it will keep bandwidth but when compared to a good quality web cam they are lacking.Overall I like the way they integrate into the Aqara hub and provide alerts when triggered.
