Review on Aqara Camera Hub G2H security camera white by Stanislaw Buzala ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

Some pros: - Price - significantly more profitable than anything that is offered to work with HomeKit - Support for HomeKit itself and all the latest stuff - cloud storage, face recognition, active zones, etc. - Good video quality Some cons: - Aqara is Xiaomi, and I once swore to buy their equipment a long time ago, having suffered just with their cameras, but with the advent of Xiaomi's brand aimed at the Apple ecosystem, I decided to amuse the toad and try it. - Everything related to HomeKit works more or less as it should. But Aqara's own chips are selective. - For example, I did not understand how to force the camera not to turn on the operation indicator lamp and night mode. I turn it off, everything is ok. After a while, I look - the light is working, the camera starts clicking characteristically when the lighting changes, including the night mode. - Sometimes the camera goes offline by itself and returns after a couple of minutes. I would like to hope that this is an automatic software ate, but the software version does not change. - Broadcasting of names from Aqara Home to Apple Home does not work at all in any direction.
