Xiaomi has begun selling its latest off-grid surveillance solution, the Smart Solar Camera 4 Pro 4G Dual-Camera Edition, in China. The device is purpose-built for remote locations without fixed power or broadband, such as farms, outbuildings, and construction environments.
Independent Power and Connectivity
A built-in 9,900mAh battery provides over a week of runtime without recharging, according to the company. A bundled 7.6W solar panel is designed to maintain the battery indefinitely under sufficient daily sunlight. For data, dual 4G SIM slots keep the camera online by switching between carriers automatically, enabling live viewing and alerts through the Xiaomi Home app.
Dual-Sensor Surveillance and AI Tracking
The camera pairs two 5-megapixel sensors, each capable of recording 3K resolution footage. One lens delivers a fixed wide-angle view of the area, while the second handles automated subject tracking with AI-assisted motion-follow. To reduce storage consumption, a motion-activated recording mode drops the frame rate during idle periods and restores full-speed capture when activity is detected.
Night Performance and Durability
Nighttime coverage includes full-color video supported by white-light LEDs and infrared illumination. Two-way voice communication is built in, and the housing carries an IP66 weather-resistance rating for year-round outdoor use.
The Smart Solar Camera 4 Pro 4G Dual-Camera Edition is priced at 649 yuan in China, or approximately $96. Xiaomi has not announced an international launch, though past release patterns suggest a potential global rollout in the third or fourth quarter of 2026 at a 20 to 30 percent premium over the domestic price. In the battery-powered solar security camera category, models such as the eufy SoloCam S340 and Reolink Argus 3 Pro serve as comparable alternatives in markets where Xiaomi’s outdoor lineup remains unavailable.
