Aqara Camera E1 (CH-C01E) - 1296p indoor camera

The Aqara E1 Camera (CH-C01E) is an affordable yet future-proof camera that focuses on smart home capabilities and ecosystem support. It features the latest networking technologies such as Wi-Fi 6 and significantly reduces false alerts by integrating an AI-based local person detection and tracking system, reducing false alarms.

Compatible with Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa

The E1 camera integrates with third-party ecosystems like Apple Home, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa. It supports Apple HomeKit Secure Video, ensuring private analysis and encryption of captured videos on your home hub devices (Apple TV or HomePod) and secure iCloud storage*. With an iCloud+ subscription, access the last 10 days of activity from one or more cameras.

 
Clearer and More Natural Imaging with PT

Capture every detail in stunning ultra-high-definition 2K. Monitor real-time events in front of the camera at any time. Ensure the safety and well-being of your children or check if they need assistance or are facing a problem. The camera also features two-way audio communication and night vision. Even in wide areas, you can still use the PT (pan and tilt) function for tracking and recording, with a 360° viewing perspective. Everything becomes convenient and reassuring.

 
Enhanced Privacy Protection

The E1 has a privacy protection mode that allows you to rotate the camera to a specific position, and the user can customize the rotation angle and turn off the camera. It is also possible to mask specific areas of the frame. For the first time, the E1 introduces a function to disable audio recording or turn off the microphone, either manually or through automation. Additionally, the E1 supports the WPA3 standard, enhancing security to better protect your privacy and reduce potential vulnerabilities.

 
24/7 Recording** and Multiple Storage Options

24/7 recording allows you to monitor your home at all times, ensuring 24-hour peace of mind. However, you need to insert a Micro SD card (not provided). You don't have to worry about long-term video storage issues as you can choose between an SD card and a paid internet storage system according to your needs (with one day of free use***). Multiple local or cloud storage options offer users a more diverse range of choices, eliminating limitations.

 
Local Person Detection in Automations****

The E1 is capable of recognizing human shapes and performing 350-degree tracking shots. Moreover, it can integrate with other multi-category smart devices based on Aqara's ecosystem through AI-based person detection. For example, when the E1 detects someone in the hallway, it can trigger the lights to turn on*. When the door and window sensors at the entrance detect an opening, the E1 turns to a specific position for precise shots.

 
Easy Installation and Setup

Thanks to the use of Bluetooth network technology in MagicPair, the E1's connection is stable and efficient. Furthermore, it has obtained Wi-Fi 6 certification. The camera supports both horizontal placement and inverted installation, thanks to the 1/4-inch threaded screw and mounting base. Lastly, it uses a USB-C power interface.*****

 
Customize as You Like

The camera supports up to 50 frequently used location presets, allowing for the creation of 15-second time-lapse videos and the download of custom ringtones. With power-off memory, you won't miss family moments after a power outage, and the device offers automatic return.
