Many security cameras feel out of place in a home; Aqara tries to address that with the cutesy, Miyazaki-like squat body and bunny ears of the $160 Camera Hub G350, its latest indoor pan-and-tilt (PTZ) camera and smart home hub. I get what the company is going for with the ears, but somehow, watching a little bunny with dead eyes slowly, ominously turn its entire body to face me still ends up being fairly creepy. My feelings about that aside, the Camera Hub G350 has a lot going for it.
This is among the first smart security cameras to support Matter 1.5, a new version of the universal smart home standard (as of November 2025) that adds cameras to the mix. That means the Camera Hub G350 can pair with any smart home ecosystem, although so far, only Samsung SmartThings supports Matter-enabled cameras. You can still add the Camera Hub G350 to another ecosystem, but only as a Matter bridge for integrating non-Matter Aqara devices. The camera also has native support for the major ecosystems besides Matter—albeit with a very limited feature set.
