Chinese firm Dnake, a provider of IP video intercom and smart home products, has released an indoor monitor said to be the first in the industry to operate on the Android 15 platform.

The H618 Pro 25.6cm monitor is designed for residential and commercial applications, and integrates seamlessly with modern smart building systems.

Android 15 brings security enhancements, providing stronger protection for user data and privacy. Installers can expect reduced integration problems, while end-users should benefit from a refined, responsive and more secure user experience.

It incorporates Wifi 6 technology, enabling faster data transmission, lower latency and stable multi-device communications. With greater coverage and stronger penetration, it ensures connectivity across large residences, multi-storey buildings and office environments.

With up to 4Gbyte RAM plus 32Gbyte ROM, it supports smooth video streaming from up to 16 IP cameras, rapid application switching, and ample storage for third-party applications or future software enhancements.

The device has a 25.6cm IPS capacitive touchscreen with a resolution of 1280 × 800. Its aluminium front panel combines durability with a sleek, modern appearance, making it a fit for high-end interiors. Users can choose surface or desktop mounting.

An optional 2MP front camera enables video calls, while a built-in proximity sensor automatically wakes the display as a user approaches, ensuring instant interaction without manual operation. Powered by PoE for simplified cabling or 12V DC for conventional setups, the H618 Pro (www.dnake-global.com/10-1-android-15-indoor-monitor-h618-pro-product) integrates seamlessly with other SIP devices via the SIP 2.0 protocol and supports third-party applications for controlling lighting, HVAC and other connected systems.
