Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro PoE vs Eufy Indoor Cam E220 comparison

Updated August 2026

Data from Amazon and official Aqara and Eufy sites.

2026 verdict

The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro PoE wins this comparison on ratings, weather resistance, PoE power, color night vision, alerts, hub features, its built-in light and privacy zones, which makes it far more than a camera. It is IP65 rated for outdoor use, runs over a single Ethernet cable with Power over Ethernet, sees in color at night, and doubles as a Zigbee coordinator, Thread border router and Matter bridge while working with Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings, Home Assistant and IFTTT. Its alert list covers people, animals, vehicles, packages, familiar faces, baby crying and smoke alarms. The Eufy Indoor Cam E220 is much cheaper and answers with 2K video against 1080p, internal storage alongside its microSD slot, 360-degree pan with tilt and customizable motion zones, all indoors only. Both record locally and support RTSP. Buy the Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro PoE for outdoor coverage and hub duty, and the Eufy Indoor Cam E220 for cheap 2K indoor monitoring.
