Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi vs Reolink Duo 3 WiFi comparison

Updated August 2026

Data from Amazon and official Aqara and Reolink sites.

2026 verdict

The Reolink Duo 3 WiFi comes out ahead in this comparison, backed by a longer two-year warranty and tougher IP67 weatherproofing while delivering flagship 16MP dual-lens 180 degree panoramic coverage in 4K over dual-band Wi-Fi 6, with 24/7 local recording to microSD or an NVR and no subscription. The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi keeps the integration crown, holding a higher owner rating and adding a broader AI alert set plus a built-in Zigbee/Thread/Matter hub with HomeKit Secure Video, and it records locally over RTSP too. The Reolink is built for wide outdoor scenes, not small rooms. Choose the Reolink Duo 3 WiFi for the widest, sharpest wireless coverage; choose the Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi if HomeKit and hub duties matter more than resolution and field of view.
