Hi, I’m new in AQARA and IoT.
I am also looking for smart security system with IoT capability.
After some time spent just to watch reviewer from Youtube, I found 2 devices that meet my needs:
- AQARA Camera Hub G5 Pro (32GB eMMC built-in & WiFi version)
- Reolink Elite WiFi (180 deegre view)
I have tried AQARA Camera Hub G5 Pro (32GB eMMC built-in & WiFi version).
The product is superb, super duper easy to setup, offer fair cloud service price.
I am okay with the tiny 32GB built-in eMMC storage. I can simply subscribe the cloud service.
The cloud recorded timeline is beyond expectation, they smartly label the event.
I do 200% okay if they brings expandable microSD local storage and this recorded event with label.
The local AI detection features almost meet my expectation.
Not only motion detection, but it can detect human from far.
The main feature that I want the most is Lingerer Detection.
Unfortunately, unlike other AI detection features, this Lingerer Detection lack of Detection Region. Without it, we can’t fine tune which area we want to set.
I made a post regarding this issue:
https://forum.aqara.com/t/camera-hub-g5-pro-wi-fi-lingerer-detection-feature-missing-detection-region/249096?u=viktoria
I believe they will make it avalable in the next software updates.
but for now, I have decided to return the product and want to try the other one I mentioned (just order today).
