Petcube Bites vs. Petcube Bites 2 — What’s Different?

Petcube Bites 2

WiFi – While both Petcubes support a 2.4GHz WiFi network, Petcube Bites 2 takes it a step further by also offering compatibility with a 5GHz connection as well, for fewer interruptions and faster speeds.

Field of View & Zoom – Additionally, Petcube Bites 2 also has an advantage when it comes to its zoom and field of view capabilities.

As it features a 4x digital zoom & 180° ultra-wide-angle lens, compared to previous versions’ 3x digital zoom & 138° viewing angle.

Design –  While both models are designed to be pet-proof and aesthetically pleasing, there are a few differences.

Petcube Bites 2 only offers a single color option for now which is Matte Silver, while the original version comes in Matte Silver, Rose Gold, Carbon Black, and Snow White.

Alexa – Petcube Bites 1 and 2 are compatible with Alexa voice commands for hands-free control over the device.

However, Petcube Bites 2 features an in-built Alexa meaning that you aren’t required to have any Alexa-enabled speakers such as the Echo.

Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that neither model supports ESP though that may change in the very near future.
