Xiaomi CW500 Dual: Dual sensors, 2K video and powerful LEDs
One sensor is static and the other is movable. This is essentially how you could describe the operating principle of Xiaomi’s new security camera technology, which improves integrated features with a dual sensor. It’s an outdoor camera that builds on the previously presented Xiaomi CW500 model with a single sensor.
The Chinese manufacturer also focused on a great price-to-performance ratio and interesting features, such as motion, person, and time-lapse recording. The improved Xiaomi CW500 Dual model offers a pair of sensors delivering up to a maximum 2.5K resolution (up to 4 million pixels). Both sensors capture the surroundings from different angles, expanding the overall field of view of the security camera. They also have tilting joints up to 180° or 355°.
IP resistance 66, an Ethernet port, and dual Wi‑Fi connection
Each of these cameras also includes two powerful white light LEDs and two sensors for night vision. Aperture f/1.6 further helps boost image quality, while the mentioned lights can be automatically turned on in night mode when a person or vehicle is detected, capturing a color photo.
You can customize the individual shooting modes through the manufacturer’s app, where you’ll also get notifications about activity in your area. Since this model is primarily designed for outdoor use, it also features enhanced water and dust resistance, including IP 66 certification.
Great connectivity is taken care of by dual Wi-Fi connection (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz). Another advantage is the ability to connect a network cable via the Ethernet (RJ45) port. You can also link the camera with other devices in the Xiaomi ecosystem, such as a tablet or a smart TV. Unfortunately, direct PoE functionality support is still missing.
On these devices, you can view your recordings. Among other features, we can mention the Xiaomi Mijia security chip to protect your data, as well as audio and light alerts when the above-mentioned person or vehicle is detected. The software that recognizes these objects and subjects works on the basis of artificial intelligence (AI).
Price and availability of the new smart camera
The new Xiaomi CW500 Dual starts selling on the domestic, i.e., Chinese market. For now, it’s part of a crowdfunding campaign, and its launch price is 329 Chinese yuan (about €41).
After this introductory campaign ends (running until March 27, 2024), the price will increase to 349 Chinese yuan (about €44). However, we still don’t know the global availability yet.
