Anyone tried the new dome 1080p camera?

https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=541002589294&toSite=main

Is it still restricted to china only?

Isn't that the same as this http://www.yitechnology.com.sg/yi-dome-1080p-camera/? If it's the same, why need to get from CN if avail locally with warranty and not bothered with restriction to CN only? I am using 2 x Yi Dome 1080p at home.

Well, it's cheaper by 60%
Which is why I'm curious if they still have that restriction
The mijia 360 and the XiaoFang square don't have that.


Btw, for your international version
Got option to select specific zone only for monitoring motion detection?

Got mine for $130, so less than 60%.

Not seeing any zone selection/option on Yi Home, only sensitivity.

Hi , may i ask if it possible for xiaoyi dome 1080p to record and store the video into my personal cloud drive instead of xiaoyi cloud service ?

Get the international one, less headache (a bit more expensive obviously)
Even hackers are still working out how to hack the camera to allow usage outside china
Or you could test if it still works with china vpn at your home

Missing basic features like customized scheduled alarm alerts

Missing basic features like customized scheduled alarm alerts

I've replaced the XiaoYi with XiaoFang, and XiaoFang is smaller, more adjustable, 1080P and no restriction on firmware updates. Angle is wider too. Only gripe is the colour looks darker.

You can even buy accompanying sticker for XiaoFang, and now my camera looks like Mike from Monster Inc, great for a kid's room.

Some of the features I liked from XiaoYi is missing from XiaoFang,

1.) Fast connection to XiaoYi but I've encountered authentication loop when connecting to XiaoFang, must restart the camera before it will work again, very inconvenient.

2.) XiaoYi records motion only video while XiaoFang is continous recording, I like the interface of XiaoYi, can't say the same for XiaoFang.

3.) Video seems to be more crisp for XiaoYi even though its only 720p and XiaoFang is 1080!
