In July 2026, the company released an AI-enabled 2K PTZ indoor security camera in Portugal, featuring 360-degree rotation, object tracking, and human detection capabilities. In August 2026, the company introduced the Smart Camera Video Call Edition 2 in the Chinese market. This multifunctional device integrates a security camera, a smart display, and a desk clock. It features a 3.97-inch vertical color touchscreen with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, designed to display information such as the time and weather. The hardware includes an 8 MP sensor capable of 4K recording, 940 nm infrared lighting for night vision, and a new 1.5T chip that is reportedly “50% faster than the previous generation,” enabling advanced AI for movement and scene detection. The camera supports 360-degree horizontal rotation and a vertical tilt between 0 and 30 degrees. For communication, the device supports bidirectional video calls via applications like WeChat or Mi Home Video, utilizing gesture controls, single-touch activation, or automatic triggers. It is equipped with dual microphones featuring intelligent noise reduction and a built-in speaker. Integrated into the HyperConnect ecosystem, the camera allows for live video streaming and easy access sharing among family members. While currently limited to China, a release in European markets, such as Portugal, is anticipated later this year. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-20: Xiaomi launches multifunctional Smart Camera Video Call Version 2 Xiaomi launched the Smart Camera Video Call Version 2, a multifunctional device combining a 4K security camera, a 3.97-inch smart display, and a desk clock with video calling capabilities. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/xiaomi-launches-multifunctional-smart-camera-video-call-version-2 ### 2026-08-17: Xiaomi launches Smart Camera Video Call Edition 2 with 4K video Xiaomi launched the Smart Camera Video Call Edition 2 in China, featuring 4K resolution, a 3.97-inch touchscreen, and AI-driven motion detection via the HyperConnect ecosystem. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/xiaomi-launches-smart-camera-video-call-edition-2-with-4k-video ### 2026-07-25: Xiaomi launches AI‑enabled 2K PTZ security camera in Portugal Xiaomi’s new 2K PTZ indoor camera adds 360° rotation, AI person detection, 2× zoom and colour night vision, integrates with Xiaomi Home and is priced below rival models. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/xiaomi-launches-aienabled-2k-ptz-security-camera-in-portugal --- Cite as: Xiaomi smart camera product launches.
