“It's a great device and has served as a great hub for my Aqara buttons and blind driver!”r/HomeKit
Community discussion around the Aqara Camera Hub G350 has centered on its status as the world's first Matter v1.5 camera, though reviewers note that “Home Assistant integration options are a bit limited”4. Users interested in Apple Home have flagged a significant constraint: “Apple only supports 1080P for HKSV”6, meaning the camera's 4K capability is only accessible natively through the Aqara app or via RTSP to a separate recorder like a NAS. On the hub side, at least one owner found it “has served as a great hub for my Aqara buttons and blind driver”5, suggesting its dual role as a smart home hub adds value for those already in the Aqara ecosystem.
