The first battery-powered video doorbell for Apple Home is available now.

Aqara’s Video Doorbell G4 launches on Amazon today in North America and Europe for the bargain price of $120, that’s $80 less than its closest HomeKit Secure Video-compatible competitor. Alongside Apple Home, the G4 works with Google Home and Amazon Alexa.

Featuring dual power sources, 1080p video, 24/7 recording capability, locally stored facial recognition, and free cloud storage, this smart buzzer ticks a lot of boxes.

Look for our full review on the site later this week.

The Aqara G4 video doorbell can be battery-powered or wired and offers 24/7 continuous recording.
