Qubo, the leading smart devices brand from the Hero Group, recently announced the launch of an innovative, new video door phone Qubo InstaView that brings in a much-needed, generational upgrade to conventional video door phones. Featuring an enhanced version of their bestselling Video Doorbell, in the form of the Qubo Video Doorbell Pro along with an all-new portable display unit – Qubo Home Tab that’s designed as the new-age control centre for modern homes, the 2 devices together mark a huge technological leap forward in the category of video door phones.

The Qubo InstaView builds upon the success of the original Qubo Video Doorbell gave users a taste of a smart and connected home where they could answer their door through a video call on their smartphone. With InstaView, Qubo goes a step further with the video call from the doorbell delivered not just on a user’s phone but also on the Home Tab that can be placed anywhere inside the home or even outside the premises. The unique portability of the indoor display unit makes it far superior and versatile than traditional video door phones that come with a basic display unit often fixed on a wall next to the door – more like a glorified peephole.

It pairs seamlessly with the Qubo Home Tab that has the potential to become the control hub for the entire home in the near future. For now, users can watch the video feed from their video doorbell on the Home Tab, talk to their visitors at the door and even unlock the door (through a Qubo Smart Door Lock) for them. Furthermore, it can also double up as a sleek Digital Photo Frame.

Speaking on the occasion Nikhil Rajpal, Founder & CEO, Qubo shared “It’s with great excitement we bring forth our latest innovation. While video door phones have been around for many years, they haven’t seen much innovation even while the rest of the home underwent a technological transformation with connected, smart devices. And just like we did with other products in the past, we took up the same challenge of reimagining everyday objects for modern-day living – this time with video door phones, and came up with the next generation of video door phones in the form of the new Qubo InstaView. With InstaView, we continue to cater to customers’ ever-increasing desire for greater convenience and control in their homes and shortly, we look forward to building on this launch by bringing the entire smart home experience on the Qubo Home Tab.”

With nearly three decades of experience behind him, Deepak Sapru, the CEO of Quba, is a dynamic leader at the forefront of India’s fastest-growing hardware brand. Under his leadership, Quba has flourished, becoming synonymous with innovation and reliability in the industry.

Passionate and driven, Deepak Sapru eagerly delves into Quba’s extensive lineup of digital locks and digital safes, catering to diverse customer segments with precision and expertise. In an exclusive interview with Smart Home World, Deepak discusses their state-of-the-art product line and future launches. 

Could you provide a comprehensive overview of the digital locks and digital safes offered by Quba across various customer segments?

If we broadly divide the customer segments in three parts based on their spending capacity as Economy, Mid and Premium then, Quba preciously has the products to cater every category. May it be Safes or Digital Lock, Quba doesn’t compromise on quality, technology or aesthetics of the products even if it’s for Economy Segment.

The newly launched Qraft – 5-way access digital lock and Magnus – Safe series are examples of the same.

What are the standout features that differentiate Quba’s Digital Locks in terms of security and convenience for users?

As the Qraft’s tagline goes `Security has never been so stylish’, Quba literally live up to that. We provide wide range of technology features in all of our digital products such as Hijack Alarm which has ability to send SOS signal through lock, without touching your phone, then we have Passageway Function which basically disables locking mechanism of the door which saves the trouble of unlocking the door every time in case of some occasion or party and security feature like OTP generation, where temporary password can be created for your guest or maid. Over and above all this, we have our own mobile application which help you monitor all the locks from anywhere in the world.

How does Quba proactively address potential vulnerabilities within the digital lock and safe technology, such as addressing concerns related to hacking or electronic malfunctions?

Quba Digital products go through three step QC with surprise inspections of manufacturing sites by independent inspection agencies. Every wireless communication between device and mobile is encrypted and inserted user data is stored on secured cloud of Application Platform.

As we said earlier, Quba doesn’t compromise on quality, technology or aesthetics of the products. 

In the context of the ever-evolving smart home landscape, how does Quba’s digital lock and safe technology seamlessly integrate with other smart home systems and devices? Specifically, can you touch upon features like biometric access, keyless entry, and remote control?

In all the fingerprint-based locks, Quba provides 360 degrees fingerprint sensor which saves the pattern of the fingerprint and not the photos; but now, Quba is not only confined to the Main door Lock or Safe, as we have launched Qsense which is a furniture lock product series & has similar features like main door lock that makes even furniture lock equally secure and safe. Quba’s Upcoming Digital lock like “Quest” will be having VDP (Video Door Phone) integration capabilities. Even upcoming Premium Safes will be Mobile App Compatible. That not only provides the convenience of keyless entry/opening but also peace of 24/7 monitoring using the mobile app.

Could you elucidate the various connectivity options accessible with Quba’s digital locks and safes, encompassing aspects like mobile apps, remote access, and compatibility with the Internet of Things (IoT)?

Like most of the Digital locks, we provide Fingerprint, password, RFID & Mechnical key option but key point is, even in our economy series main door locks, we provide inbuilt Wifi connectivity and not a Bluetooth using which we can unlock the Wifi Digital lock from anywhere using Quba Smart App.  That make our Quba Smart App a one stop solution for all the devices connected to network. As we mentioned earlier, upcoming Quba Lock will be compatible with VDP & allied products like Qeye a Wifi Video Door Bell & Qbot a Wifi 3MP home PTZ camera are part of Quba Family which can be accessed on same Quba Platform.

One of Quba’s renowned product lines, QUANTRA, has been honored with the prestigious RedDot Design Award. Could you share the unique selling points (USP) of this range?

Design and Elegance are at the core of the Quba products which we bundle up with user convenience and technology. Quantra is the product of all these things craft together. The uniqueness of the product is the Push-Pull Design of Quantra which is very unique & adds into it utility. Apart from all these, Quantra is wifi inbuilt lock with electronic lock body and comes with wide range of mobile app & security features. 

Let’s delve into the digital safe offerings provided by Quba. What options do you offer, and could you provide insights into the application areas where these safes find relevance?

Quba’s Digital Safe provides impeccable security merged with aesthetic design and has to offer something for every market segment. Our Astrix-001 & Astrix-002 are premium Wi-Fi safes that are mainly would be used for high-security requirement areas such as Gold/Diamond factories or High-profile personal cabins. Astrix-002 being fire resistant, adds to the security.

Our Magnus-003 to Magnus-006 are Laser cut dual access mode safes that are most suitable for the mid-market customer segment, who is looking out for security with style. Having Fingerprint, password, and mechanical keys as three opening options, provides triple peace of mind.
