Xiaomi launches latest Dual Smart Cameras
The CW500 and C500 Dual Smart Cameras
Xiaomi has officially launched its latest Dual Smart Cameras: the Xiaomi CW500 and Xiaomi C500.
Both innovative smart home cameras bring unparalleled dual-lens coverage for users to monitor two different areas simultaneously.
Used with the Mi Home App, both cameras also provide seamless monitoring and advanced detection.
Both cameras are now available on the Xiaomi official Lazada and Shopee stores. The CW500 retails for PhP 3,479 while the C500 is priced at PhP 3,169.
Xiaomi CW500: Outdoor guardian
The Xiaomi CW500 Smart Outdoor Camera Dual gives a complete view of what matters — day and night.
It can stream two live feeds from the Mi Home App. One is a steady, fixed-angle view while the other is a dynamic Pan-Tilt-Zoom lens to check specific angles.
The camera has a crisp 2.5K resolution and large f/1.6 aperture for clear detail. Four smart white lights also automatically turn on when the sun goes down for full-color night vision.
The dynamic camera can effortlessly pan horizontally and tilt 95 degrees vertically for complete control right from users’ smartphones.
The CW500 also supports dual-band Wi-Fi 6 connectivity for faster speeds and smoother streaming.
Other features include IP66 rating, a built-in high-sensitivity microphone, and a powerful speaker.
Xiaomi C500: Indoor eye
Meanwhile, the Xiaomi Smart Camera C500 Dual is ideal for indoor use. It provides comprehensive coverage and smart features, and can be mounted upright or inverted.
It has dual 4MP lenses for a clear view of one’s space, with both cameras offering a 110-degree ultra-wide angle perspective. The smart PTZ camera also supports a detailed close-up focus.
Together, these AI-powered dual cameras work to track movement and give users a split-screen view of everything.
The PTZ lens can also automatically zoom in and follow motion detected by the fixed camera.
Moreover, the C500 has pet detection and tracking, as well as real-time crying baby detection with instant alerts.
Users can also set virtual fence areas for the fixed camera so it triggers alerts for enhanced surveillance in key spaces.
Furthermore, the C500 has enhanced infrared night vision without any disruptive red lights for clear visuals in the dark.
It likewise supports dual-band Wi-Fi 6 and users can easily control with “OK, Google” and “Alexa” commands.

Epson Lifestudio Grand Plus EH-LS970B with 4K projection, more launches
Ultra-short-throw projection, AI-powered image processing, Sound by Bose
Epson has officially launched the Lifestudio Grand Plus EH-LS970B, its latest all-in-home home entertainment solution.
This new offering combines large-scale 4K projection, AI-powered image processing, and integrated Sound by Bose speakers.
It is designed for consumers seeking a bigger, more immersive viewing experience without compromising their living spaces.
The EH-LS970B can project 4K (8.3 million pixels) content from 80 to 150 inches while positioned just inches from the wall.
Its ultra-short-throw design (0.16 ratio) removes the need to mount a large display or position a conventional projector across the room, giving homeowners greater flexibility in how they use their space.
It has a 3LCD laser projection system for up to 4,000 lumens of color and white brightness, as well as a contrast ratio of more than 5,000,000:1.
In addition, the projector features upgrades across image processing and audio while retaining a compact, all-in-one approach to home entertainment.
At the heart of Epson’s EH-LS970B is a new AI-powered TV chip that analyses content in real time. This automatically optimizes the image for each scene.
AI Super Resolution enhances sharpness and fine details, while AI Picture Quality automatically adjusts the image based on what is being displayed.
Features like Dynamic Colour Booster, Local Contrast and De-contour Processing further optimize color, contrast, and gradients as well.
The visual quality is complemented by an integrated 20W 2.1 channel Sound by Bose speaker system.
This delivers room-filling audio with deep bass, without requiring a separate speaker setup. Bluetooth mode also allows the projector to function simply as an audio system when the display isn’t in use.
The projector comes with Google TV built-in and supports Google Cast and voice control.
TV technology is changing in a way you can’t see. And it starts with how color itself is made.
Hisense’s new RGB MiniLED technology could change the way we see TVs.
Here’s our spotlight on their latest Hisense UR8 offering.
