Xiaomi introduces new smart camera with built-in screen for video calls

Smart-Camera-Video-Call-Version-2

Xiaomi is getting ready to launch an updated version of its video calling camera, and this one comes with a display built directly into the unit.

The company has made big changes compared to last year’s model. The most obvious upgrade is the 3.97-inch colour screen on the front. It has a 480 x 800 pixel resolution display, and the buttons next to it are now bigger and easier to press.

You can make video calls in three different ways. You can wave your hand, push a button, or set the camera to connect automatically. The calls work between the camera and a phone, or between two cameras.

For sound, the device uses two microphones and a decent-sized speaker. There is also a noise reduction feature that helps cut down on background chatter, so the person on the other end can hear you more clearly.

The camera itself has an 8MP sensor that can shoot video in 4K quality, which is 3840 by 2160 pixels. It can also spin around a full 360 degrees and tilt up to 30 degrees, giving you flexibility to point it wherever you need.

Xiaomi says the new chip inside is 50 percent more powerful than the one in the previous version. That extra speed helps the camera run better AI software for detecting movement and recognising what is happening in the room.

The device also connects with other Xiaomi smart home gadgets through the company’s HyperConnect system. You can see the camera’s live view on its own screen during calls, and you can give other family members access to the camera as well.

The Xiaomi Smart Camera Video Call Version 2 will appear on Xiaomi’s Youpin crowdfunding page starting August 26. It will cost CNY429(~Php3,900).

Amazon announces two new Tomb Raider games

Get ready to dust off your climbing axes. Lara Croft, the legendary treasure hunter, is returning to consoles and computers in a big way. Following a long break from solo adventures, two major new games in the Tomb Raider series were revealed at The Game Awards 2025. The last time players controlled Lara in a core series game was 2018’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Now, publisher Amazon Games and longtime developer Crystal Dynamics are bringing her back with a pair of distinct projects. The first is Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis , a full remake of the original 1996 game that started it all. It is being built with Unreal Engine 5 by Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog.

Sei Crypto Wallet to come pre-installed on Xiaomi phones

Xiaomi and The Sei Development Foundation, a non-profit that promotes the Sei network, have entered a global partnership that aims to promote mainstream blockchain adoption. From 2026, Xiaomi phones available outside mainland China and the United States will come pre-installed with a wallet and crypto discovery app developed by Sei Labs. This would definitely help increase the adoption of the network as Xiaomi is one of the biggest smartphone vendors in the world, just behind Samsung and Apple. Participating phones will be able to conduct peer-to-peer payments, explore Web3 products, and access decentralized applications without the need to download third-party apps. What’s more, Sei plans to implement stablecoin payments in over 20,000 Xiaomi stores, starting in Hong Kong and the European Union. Sei Labs aims to “build a decentralized NASDAQ” and targets to accommodate 200,000 transactions per second as it aims to shift the financial ecosystem on-chain. To make it possible, th...
