Xiaomi Mi Wireless Outdoor Security Camera 1080p Review: Very Sophisticated First Edition

While Xiaomi’s latest indoor cameras shoot in 2K, the Mi Wireless Outdoor Security Camera is missing. Its 2 megapixel sensor controls the resolution of the record up to 1920 x 1080 pixels and can be switched to 720p to reduce their weight; A particularly useful option in local storage. The optics provide 130 ° view for its part and Xiaomi apparently adds infrared vision for the night, but it also makes a WDR option possible, especially to help make faces look a little better against light.

During the day

Against the highest battery camera we have ever tested, The Nest game (battery) From Google, the Mi Wireless Outdoor Security Camera 1080p competes. Our test footage was captured with very low elegance despite the uniform definition, and Xiaomi’s camera did not handle the excess of light well. However, the image is mostly usable and should not be too difficult to identify faces.

At night

The night vision of Mi Wireless Outdoor 1080p is very satisfying. The image makes it possible to distinguish most of the elements that make up it, whether it is a little over-exposed in the center of our experimental scene or a light or dark background. The level of detail is even lower than Google’s camera, but the accent of the edges and variations allows Xiaomi to bring out certain elements better, such as silk and hair in general. Mostly unique elements.

In our ID test, Mi Wireless Outdoor 1080p did slightly less than its Google branded competitor. This allowed us to identify a face at a distance of about 3.50 meters as opposed to 4 meters for the Google model. The latter, on the other hand, can be very useful in detecting movements because we have estimated the range of the system at 9 m. To activate Xiaomi’s camera, the movements must take place at a distance of 5.50 meters. It should then be noted that it struggles to differentiate between people and will not send notification if the filter associated with it is enabled. Maybe there is a problem using the PIR sensor.

It activates the camera and then activates night vision. The camera first detects the change in light and seems to only remember it. However, using pictures is not inconvenient. If the first sight is too dark, the night vision is activated almost immediately and the action is lost for only a small second at the appearance of the stimulus. It’s good to enable notifications for all movements after dark, so you don’t miss anything. It is important to know that if the camera records all movements, regardless of the defined notification settings, there are images to search for and view them.
