Our detailed review:
Solar panel and built-in battery
The smart security camera Xiaomi Solar Outdoor Camera BW400 Pro has a somewhat unconventional design in the shape of a cuboid with rounded edges and an integrated solar panel in the upper part. He will be pleased with the certification IP66.
Since it is a truly wireless camera, you will not need any cables to connect it. The camera uses a WiFi connection and is powered by an integrated battery. It has a capacity of up to 10 000 mAh.
According to testing in the laboratory, it should last up to one charge 5 months. However, in real-world conditions, endurance will certainly vary. In the ideal case, the camera can be self-sufficient thanks to the integrated solar panel, without the need for recharging. Solar panel conversion is 20%.
However, for such self-sufficiency, we would need at least 2 hours of direct sunlight per day, which is not realistic in our climate. Of course, the endurance also depends on the number of recorded events and the frequency of using the camera itself for various purposes.
We don't expect the camera to be self-sufficient here, but the presence of a solar panel is a definite advantage.
2.5K resolution and a high-quality sensor
The Xiaomi Solar Outdoor Camera BW400 Pro has a size sensor 1 / 2.7 " with aperture f / 1.6, thanks to which it provides a clear and detailed image day and night. The camera has 4 Mpx, the video resolution is 2560 x 1440 px with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and there is no lack of HDR support, this time at the hardware level.
It is not a rotating camera, but in the horizontal direction it has a viewing angle of 113.3° and in the vertical direction it is 58.7°. The total field of view has a diagonal of 132°.
The smart camera also has four LEDs, which are located above the lens and are used for lighting in the dark. With their help, we can achieve a color image even at night, or use the light as a warning when activity is recorded during our absence.
A pair of infrared lights are used for night vision, which ensure the well-known black-and-white recording.
Space monitoring and indoor station
The Xiaomi Solar Outdoor Camera BW400 Pro wireless camera uses an indoor station for its operation, which performs the function of a kind of gate and control center of the camera. It connects to this station using an unspecified wireless connection.
The wireless connection between the camera and its base is energy efficient. Thanks to the fact that the indoor station processes a lot of data from the camera, it can relieve it and at the same time help the battery life in the camera to last longer.
Of course there is motion detection in the field of view of the camera, or in the selected area. If the camera detects movement, it will immediately send a notification to the smartphone via the Xiaomi Home application with the corresponding video.
The Xiaomi Solar Outdoor Camera BW400 Pro can recognize people, animals, vehicles and even packages from the courier. You will be alerted to these objects already in the notification and subsequently in the application itself when viewing the recorded events. It can do all this thanks to the integrated AI chip.
Storage for videos and security
Xiaomi Solar Outdoor Camera BW400 Pro can record videos on SD card, which is inserted into the indoor station, or even into the cloud from Xiaomi. However, for cloud services, we only have 7 days of video history for three months. If we want a longer history, we need an SD card or a disk connected via USB.
Xiaomi also thinks about security. In the equipment of the interior station, we also find a built-in MJA1 security chip. It has an exclusive private key and certificate, thanks to which the data transmitted between the camera and the station is secured to protect your privacy.
Two-way audio transmission
Two-way sound transmission is also a matter of course, thanks to the built-in microphone and speaker. You can also use the camera to communicate with the person who is near the camera. Xiaomi declares sound recording up to 8 meters away from the camera thanks to the sensitive microphone. The noise reduction algorithm in the audio recording will also please you.

would we need an outdoor solar camera for our apartment building, do you even know the approximate price and start of sales? So far, I have found something similar from anker eufa and it even has 4K, but the price is quite crazy... over 200 euros https://ip-kamery.heureka.sk/eufy-t81603w1/#prehlad/ I hope this xiaomi will be much cheaper.. it has weaker IP protection and also only 2K resolution, maybe the approx. 150 will fit, but we need exactly the same thing with a solar panel and a built-in connected power bank
We don't know how to write.
Well, hooray, this is a great price, I have to consult with the apartment manager and tell him.
It is not mentioned anywhere in the description, and it is not visible in the pictures, whether the solar panel can be tilted. We need to position the camera exactly towards the north, at an angle of about 40 degrees, so in the case of a fixed solar panel, the sun would never shine directly on the panel.
The camera has arrived, we are already testing it. The solar panel is fixed, it cannot be tilted in any way.
Good day. does the camera only record movements or does it also continuously record the entire recording? whole bottom? Well thank you
Hello, battery powered cameras never record continuously. So they always only record movement, it's to save battery.
