On top of that it brings true-color night vision that owners liken to daylight, a spotlight and a siren, IP65 weatherproofing, local microSD or NAS recording over RTSP with no forced subscription, and support for Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant. The Eufy Window Camera E10 is the cheaper, single-purpose option: 2.5K with HDR, MaxColor night vision and continuous 24/7 recording to a microSD card, designed to film through a window from inside. Choose the Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi for an Apple Home setup or a hub for your sensors, and the Eufy Window Camera E10 for a discreet indoor window camera.

What the differences mean

A camera that is also a hub

The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi works as a Zigbee coordinator, a Thread border router and a Matter bridge, so it extends your smart home as well as watching it. The Eufy Window Camera E10 is only a camera, with no radio for other devices.

Ecosystem reach

The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi supports Apple HomeKit Secure Video, Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Home Assistant and IFTTT, and it streams RTSP. The Eufy Window Camera E10 works with Alexa and Google only, with no HomeKit, SmartThings or Matter.

Weather and mounting

The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi is IP65 rated for outdoor use. The Eufy Window Camera E10 has no weather rating and is built to film through interior glass.

Deterrence and detection

The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi adds a spotlight, a siren and sound detection for smoke and CO alarms. The Eufy Window Camera E10 has no light or siren and detects only motion, people, pets and vehicles.

Recording

Both store locally with no required fee, the Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi to microSD or a NAS over RTSP and the Eufy Window Camera E10 to a microSD card, but only the E10 adds HDR. Cloud storage on the Aqara is an optional paid plan.

What owners say

Reliability and night vision dominate what owners say about the Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi. Many who cycled through other HomeKit cameras say this is the one that stays online, crediting the dual-band Wi-Fi and its 5GHz band, and they describe the true-color night vision as almost like daylight. They value the local AI detection of people, animals, vehicles and packages with few false alerts, the bright schedulable spotlight, NAS recording with no forced subscription, and the built-in Zigbee, Thread and Matter hub. The recurring concern is outdoor power: an exposed USB-C port, a short cable and no power brick in the box, which some worry is vulnerable to rain and freezing.
