Video Quality: Daytime pictures are very soft, not sharp or clear, which means you won't be able to see much detail or subtle patterns in the scene. At nighttime, the video is poor: difficult to view, not as bright or clear as the better models.
Data security: This model has mediocre security. It has some but not all of the important protections for your recordings and personal data.
Data privacy: Aqara offers only a mediocre level of control and transparency over your data. They are not doing as good a job as others are with regard to collecting only necessary data, giving you control over its use, and limiting how your data is shared or sold.
Response time: This model sends its alerts to its app within 2.4 seconds on average, which is very quick, and helps you be very responsive to situations.
Smart features: It works with smart-home systems such as Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Apple Siri, Google Assistant, Google Home, IFTTT, and Samsung SmartThings. You'll need to install the Aqara Home app on your smartphone. Aqara claims this model has recognition algorithms that can detect people, as well as intrusion zone, doorbell ringing, tamper alarm detections under AI in device menu. Aqara may offer additional features that require a subscription and/or a firmware update.
