I have this . Do not buy it. Battery holds less than 2 weeks , motion detection is sht, it starts recording after 4-5 sec after someone passes by and will record only it the camera wants to. If someone comes to your door, by the time the person triggers the camera, he is way off camera range and you will not see nothing. Customer service is so bad, they trying to find all sorts of excuses rather than fix the issue. I know I'm not the only one complaining about this and they are aware that the camera is crap . I bought a cheaper 20£ one and plan to use that . This one going straight to the bin . Got my car scratched 5 times , and at no time the camera recorded. I had read all the bad reviews and decided to buy one anyways . Should had listened to others.
I really got this camera believing in the ads but yeah doesn't last 1 week the battery, sometimes the camera decide to shut off itself, only records small chunks of 15 seconds as maximum, don't detect animals and with last firmware update don't detect anything at all and as last don't allow watch from a computer and if you leave the USB c cable plugged the Ip65 waterproofing is over
Not a rain proof! Mine died in a month. Got a conclusion: "Not a warranty case". And comment from official support that IP65 is not rain proof: "We have double checked with Tamet, official repair center for Xiaomi, and they shared that these cameras have IP65 normative that says that cameras are spillproof and disto proof... They can not be exposed to Rain or equivalent"
are they kidding? i mean i would not really expose them to harshest weathers, but some rain ?!?! i currently have my indoor 360 2k cam pointed at my yard with a small weather protection from above and its pretty windstill at the place i put the cam. It survived everything right now, without problems so far. i thought about buying these outdoor cams here, but if they dont even survive normal weather conditions thats a big NO
Hello, excellent video very well detailed, based on your video I bought 2 Xiaomi cameras, and I wanted to know if the same thing happens to you or mine have a problem, I have 50 mb of internet, the router with antennas 6 meters from the camera , and it's not taking me well when I pass the sensor near the camera, and it takes a long time to load the videos and many times it doesn't even show me, I wanted to know if you also had problems with the camera? ' thank you
Hello, I'm going to put the camera on the balcony, I don't want the camera to move with the movement of the tree leaves, the movement of the balcony curtain, I only want to be triggered by the movement of live objects (human, animal) and record live to my NAS in my local network, is it possible with this camera? Note: I'm currently using an "indoor mi 360 1080p" camera that I bought 2 years ago, unfortunately I can't distinguish between "triggered and record only in human motion" as I explained above, it records to the NAS even at the lowest sensitivity setting, even if the leaf moves. Can I do what I want with this camera?
The camera don't detect animals, only persons and changes in environment but that is all don't have Nas compatibility as the other Xiaomi cameras for indoor usage I think since it's made by other manufacturer
The ethernet port is only for confuguration of the reciever? You must have wifi network for it to work? You cannot conect this reciever to internet throug a ethernet port?
No it's not compatible with apple homekit, almost everything of Xiaomi is not homekit friendly at all since it's the global version of the Chinese original product but another firmware and compatibility to Xiaomi mi home instead of mijia
Small question, because I'm looking to buy one, so can u see what's going on the cam even if you are faar away? Like if I install it in my shop, I will be able to see waths going on from my home with the phone? Thank you.
It works to see real time but beware, this camera movement detection is crap. If someone triggers the detection, camera has a lag, and by the time it starts to record, that is if it feels like recording, the thief , mailman etc , would long be gone . There are a lot less expensive cameras with better specs and even free cloud recording.
@@andresrozas8376 I'm not an expert. I personally use a septekon cameras that i think is chinese ,but can't really find a fault. I mounted and setup myself and got a second one to swap that shitty xiaomi one. I also run a ring camera but I don't like the fact you have to pay a subscription if you want recording, while the other doesent. I am planing to change the ring camera also . Any suggestions are welcomed as i want to replace the xiaomi and ring.
@@pifandrei5743 hi thanks for the recommendation. Just looked at this septekon cameras, they look decent. However they need to be plugged into the power outlet. Is the Xiaomi outdoor you got that bad? No fixes with the latest fw updates?
The battery doesn't last 90 days not even 2 weeks just 1 week as much, also don't record continuously only when people pass, changes detected or is moved and does a small video of only 15 second as maximum , also does use the cloud to storage those small chunks of video although has a micro SD card slot and does also record straight to the card those small chunks of videos but does of not ordered way so will have to deal with a lot of folders without chronological order at all and in the app doesn't allow check those videos from the card at all
Hello and the thank you for the great explanation on your video ...mine has a problem when i am trying to scan the qr code on the camera..do you have any solution?
It was the same for me, solution: close everything. Reset the camera by the button. Use your phone's qr code reader (not the mi app's reader). Finish the steps, should work for you too.
Dobrý deň, ja so rybár a kamera na baterku by sa mi hodila k udici na “sumce” - wifi dostupné, len aký typ kamery na baterku by bol lepší a cenovo dostupný a spolupracovala s PC: /chromebook/- Ďakujem za radu.
When I want to watch in real time video it "loading" to much time and then show me a picture video on my smarthpoone but with "stops" in video...dont know why ? maybe Xiaomi fix that bug with update ??
does somebody know, if it would be possible to connect a cable to the camera and have it powered by a small powerblock to get rid of the need to recharge it. I will be able to lay some cable and even have the cam protected from serious weather. i also have a Mi 360 indoor cam, planted at a good location with a small weather protection outside and it works really well. currently i am fearing, that the cam wont survive the winter outside and will stop working in minus temperatures - these outdoor cams seems suitable and i could stay in the mi eco-system for the survailance
excellent review!... can the camera work keeping it always connected to the power cable, or does it work only on battery with the power cable disconnected?... thanks

Only stores the small chunks of video as alternative if you don't have an micro SD card, also don't records continuously only does when people pass by, changes detected or somebody moves the camera and only records an small video of 15 seconds as maximum at the time, have not settings to set up separately the type of things to detect also don't detect animals or pets so if wants to monitor where your dog escape this camera is useless

Good. But in the manual it says 32 gigabyte? Or can I put a larger capacity???

Hi ,when motion detected the cam cant run siren alarm ,is there a aption?
My receiver is stuck in orange light and does not reset by pressing the button at the back. What should i do?
Hey man. I have the same problem. Did you manage to find a solution?
Is it possible to connect the Xiaomi motion detection sensor to the gateway of this camera? Or I need another device to connect
How long is the lifespan of the camera before charging it again?
90days
The ethernet port is only for confuguration of the reciever? You must have wifi network for it to work? You cannot conect this reciever to internet throug a ethernet port?
Yes you can, wifi or ethernet, make the choice before the setup.
@@TechGuruAndrew but you must connect from the same router? Because from lan i cannot configure it and it needs wifi to access the internet
@@TechGuruAndrew and how can i find ethernet's ports mac adress? In app it only shows wifi mac adress
Setup is from the app my video is very clear for all processes
Great presentation. Is it compatible with Apple Homekit? Cheers
Thanks, i am not sure about the homekit, i never use it.

The camera connects to the receiver or hub through it's own wifi network
