The Aqara Camera Hub G3 is equipped with a 2K resolution that offers sharp and clear images, which is an important aspect for home surveillance. The camera has a wide angle of 110° and features pan and tilt control functions (340° horizontal and 45° vertical), allowing for extensive monitoring of larger areas.

This camera simplifies the monitoring process by offering user-friendly setup and an intuitive app. This allows users to easily remotely control the camera, view live streaming and review recorded material. In addition, it can automatically adjust its direction when detecting movement, such as when a door is opened.

The Aqara Camera Hub G3 has a built-in NPU processor that allows identification of faces, pets and gestures. This can be used to create automated home scenarios. For example, users can set the TV to silent by gesturing, something made possible by the device's IR lamp.

In terms of storage, the camera offers several options. Users can choose between Aqara's cloud storage service, which provides 30 days of storage of encrypted 2K videos, Apple Secure Video for storage in iCloud, or local storage on a microSD card with capacities up to 128GB.

Although the Aqara Camera Hub G3 offers high-quality monitoring and multiple integration opportunities with smart home ecosystems, it is important for potential buyers to consider compatibility with existing smart home devices and the overall cost.
