Security Camera Hub Indoor G2H Pro, HomeKit Secure Video

Brilliant peace of kit, and for the money it’s well worth it for the added bit of security, super easy to set up with the Aqara app then also adding it to Apple Home is a breeze. The picture is brilliant and crystal clear, the sound quality is also great as well. Overall the functionality of the device is brilliant. Will be purchasing more. It also acts as a hub so you can connect all over Aqara devices to it - perfect for such a simple set up without having hubs connected to the router

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 love everything about this camera. Integrates with Apple HomeKit, it is very responsive when viewing and has multiple scenarios for activations. It doubles up as a hub, I have added door sensors so if the garage door opens it sounds an alarm and starts recording. All recorded video is stored in Apple and does not use your usage. My only gripe (which could be my Wi-Fi, currently setting up a home Wi-Fi mesh to see if it fixes) is it drops out randomly and goes offline. I will update once the Wi-Fi mesh is in place. Other than the Wi-Fi drops, which could be no fault of the camera, I highly recommend it.

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.

Has worked great up until ios26 onwards. Now refuses to connect to HomeKit. As I have other Aqara products and this is the main hub it now renders them all useless in HomeKit. Aqara are quick to respond but all they can offer is “reset WiFi and all devices”. This hasn’t worked over the last few months so won’t fix it now. Was a 5* product until iOS 26 upwards.

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.

* This is placed near the front door entrance. * Works well with Home kit and displays a direct feed on Apple TV and on a Mac * You will need a 5v 1amp adapter as it is NOT supplied. I used an Apple usb charger. * Connection is stable as my internet router is very close. * supplied USB cable was short for my needs and I instead ordered a 6m Micro USB cable. Great little camera for the home and simple to set up

Great quality but often dropping and rebooting on HomeKit network for no reason . I have also g2 original on home network /HomeKit and running without issues .

The Aqara Security Camera Hub Indoor G2H Pro has completely exceeded my expectations. It’s not just a security camera but also a smart home hub, making it one of the most versatile devices I’ve ever owned. The video quality is excellent, with crystal-clear 1080p resolution and a wide-angle lens that captures the entire room. The night vision is equally impressive, ensuring that I can monitor my home 24/7, even in total darkness. The motion detection works like a charm, and I appreciate the ability to customize activity zones to reduce unnecessary alerts. What really sets the G2H Pro apart is its dual functionality as a hub for Aqara devices. It integrates seamlessly with my existing Aqara smart home ecosystem, including sensors and automation routines. I can control everything through the Aqara app, and the compatibility with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Assistant is a huge bonus. Another standout feature is the secure local storage option via a microSD card, as well as iCloud support for HomeKit Secure Video. This gives me peace of mind that my footage is both private and easily accessible. Setting up the camera was quick and easy, and the sleek, compact design blends beautifully into my home. It’s unobtrusive yet highly functional. Whether you need a reliable security camera, a smart hub, or both, the Aqara G2H Pro is an incredible choice. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their smart home setup with enhanced security!

Have been using it since over 6 months now. I bought refurbished from Amazon and got it at a pretty good price. I bought a second one because I really liked its functionality. I used to have an Aqara M1S which wasn’t able to onboard all my sensors but with these two camera acting as zigbee hubs I have 16 door and window sensors onboarded and setup up automation. These have in built speaker for two way comms and also acts as siren. I can talk to my cat from work, how cool is that. Setup in HomeKit was a breeze and automations work great. You can also have the camera save event videos and time lapse onto your Network Attached Storage. Overall I like what Aqara had done with this product.

The product is used on a stable network but it keeps déconnecting after few minutes operation. Real disapointment, poor value for money.

A priori, funciona, no acabo de entender una segunda función que aparece en la app CASA de apple cuando se instala la cámara que se llama SISTEMA. En general la cámara es de fácil instalación. La imagen que proyecta es muy buena tanto de día como de noche. En ocasiones parece que se queda trabada una imagen fija por horas y resulta imposible desbloquear por el móvil con la app CASA de momento esto me ha pasado un par de veces en menos de 2 semanas. La forma que he encontrado de desbloquearlo es cuando llego a casa y le quito el cable de alimentación y se lo vuelvo a poner, ahí vuelve a funcionar.
