Xiaomi has steadily grown its smart home ecosystem, and one of the most important pillars in this lineup is its range of outdoor security cameras. From budget-friendly wired options to advanced dual-lens models with intelligent tracking and full-color night vision, Xiaomi now offers a solid portfolio.
In this 2025 roundup, we focus only on official Xiaomi-branded outdoor cameras available across Chinese and global markets. Indian buyers still lack direct access via Xiaomi’s local store, though some models are available through third-party importers.
Let’s break down the best Xiaomi outdoor security cameras you can buy right now.
1. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera 4 Dual-Cam Edition
Xiaomi’s most powerful outdoor camera to date, the Outdoor Camera 4 Dual-Cam Edition, combines two 5MP lenses in a compact yet robust design. It features a wide-angle lens for broad surveillance and a 6mm telephoto PTZ module that actively tracks movement with AI assistance. Once the fixed camera detects motion, the PTZ lens kicks in to follow the subject with precision.
It records in crisp 3K (2880 × 1620) resolution, enhanced with full-color night vision using dual LED spotlights and IR lights. Rated IP66 for water and dust resistance, the camera withstands extreme weather from -30°C to 60°C. It supports dual-band Wi-Fi 6, has an Ethernet port for wired stability, and integrates easily with the Mi Home app via Bluetooth 5.0.
Additional highlights include human/vehicle detection, real-time alert clips, two-way talk, a siren, time-lapse video support, and three-tier storage options: local microSD (up to 256GB), NAS, and Xiaomi Cloud. It’s currently a China-exclusive, priced at CNY 299 (~$42).
2. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera CW500 Dual
The CW500 Dual brings Xiaomi’s dual-lens magic to the global market. Instead of 5MP sensors, it opts for dual 4MP lenses that record in 2.5K resolution (2560 × 1440). The configuration remains similar: a wide-angle lens paired with a motorized PTZ unit capable of 355° panning and 95° tilting.
The camera uses 8 fill lights for full-color night vision and employs Xiaomi’s MJA1 security chipset to power AI-driven human/vehicle recognition while safeguarding data. IP66 weatherproofing ensures durability outdoors, and while it lacks an Ethernet port, it connects reliably over dual-band Wi-Fi 6.
There’s support for two-way communication, spotlight/siren deterrents, and local plus cloud storage. It’s available in various global regions, including Europe and Southeast Asia, but hasn’t officially arrived in India.
3. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera CW700S
The CW700S is Xiaomi’s most capable global outdoor PTZ camera, supporting full 360° horizontal rotation and 100° tilt. It features dual 4MP lenses with 9x hybrid zoom, switching from optical to digital zoom seamlessly while preserving 2.5K clarity.
With a dual-antenna setup for extended Wi-Fi range, this model is well-suited for larger outdoor spaces. It combines both white and IR LEDs for all-light-condition monitoring, and like its siblings, it features AI object detection, two-way audio, and powerful deterrents like alarms and flash lighting.
Compatible with Google Assistant and Alexa, the CW700S streams video to smart displays. It’s been launched in Europe (around €79.99) and is globally available via Xiaomi online channels, but not officially sold in India.
4. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera BW500
For users seeking flexibility without wiring, the battery-powered BW500 delivers excellent performance. It’s powered by a massive 10,000mAh battery that lasts up to six months and supports optional solar charging via Xiaomi’s dedicated solar panel accessory.
The camera records at 2.5K resolution and offers a 136° field of view. It includes smart PIR-based motion detection and AI filtering to ignore false triggers. The built-in spotlight enables full-color night vision up to 10 meters.
Rated IP67 for extreme weather resistance, the BW500 is one of Xiaomi’s most rugged options. It also features onboard 8GB eMMC storage for offline buffering, and optionally pairs with a base station that improves range and adds a secure indoor SD card slot. Available globally, the BW500 is a strong alternative to competitors like Eufy or Arlo.
5. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera BW300
The BW300 is a scaled-down variant of the BW500, offering 2K video recording and a 130° wide field of view. It features a 4900mAh battery that delivers up to six months of usage on a single charge. Despite its compact size, it retains many of the same capabilities, including AI-based motion detection, full-color night vision, two-way audio, IP67 water and dust resistance, and support for both microSD and cloud storage.
The BW300 is ideal for budget-conscious users wanting a simple wireless install. It’s widely sold across Xiaomi’s global store and trusted retailers.
6. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera 4C
The Outdoor Camera 4C is one of the most affordable Xiaomi outdoor models, yet it still features pan-tilt controls with 360° horizontal and 106° vertical coverage. It records in 1080p and supports full-color night vision using onboard LEDs.
Despite being budget-tier, it includes two-way audio, IP66 weather resistance, and microSD/cloud storage support. Available in China, the 4C is a solid option for entry-level users seeking coverage flexibility at a low price.
7. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera AW300
Still relevant in 2025, the AW300 offers excellent 2K (2304 × 1296) video quality with a 101.7° field of view. Its night vision system includes 2 white spotlights and 2 IR LEDs for dual-mode operation. Smart detection zones and built-in alarms help reduce false alerts.
It’s IP66 rated, supports up to 256GB of local storage, and integrates with Xiaomi’s Mi Home app for multi-camera monitoring. Priced at ~$30–$40, it’s a great wired solution for users prioritizing value and reliability.
8. Xiaomi Outdoor Camera AW200
Although aging, the AW200 is still sold in select global regions as an ultra-budget option. It records in 1080p, has full-color night vision with an f/1.6 lens, and uses 940nm IR for discreet black-and-white monitoring in pitch dark.
It’s compact, IP65-rated, and supports basic motion detection, two-way talk, and smart assistant integration. If you need basic security on a tight budget, the AW200 remains a solid pick.
