This definitely serves our purpose of being to look at our Toddler and our infant in their two separate rooms but we cannot clearly hear what our toddlers saying through the camera so it seems to be a little muffled or just a very low quality microphone or last camera was a VTEC and we could hear her just fine so I’m not sure if it’s just this particular when we got or not. I don’t feel like going through the hassle of sending it back so we’ll probably just deal with It.

As a first-time parent we were a little clueless what we needed in a baby monitor, but I am happy to say that this has pretty much the full package. Key features for us: - Good night vision - 2 cameras. This is important for us bc we keep one mounted above the crib, and use the other for travel (or even sometimes if were just visiting friends and know hell be sleeping in a room in his carseat) without needing to unmount anything. - Long range (our townhouse neighbors can even watch him from next door!) and not operated via wifi. Weve tried a wifi monitor and its very annoying to have to set up wifi everywhere you go. - A good size, portable screen for watching the baby. I like it that I have a dedicated screen vs using my phone which I might be using for other things. - Mute button The downsides: - It has a sensitivity feature (i.e., its supposed to go off only when theyre crying very hard). Theoretically this is a very good feature, but Im not sure it always works well. The instruction manual is impossible to understand, so its also possible Im not using it correctly. - Sometimes the buttons to rotate the camera or adjust the volume dont work properly. Its possible to get it done but you might need to turn it on and off, or press the button down to turn the volume up. - Theres a light on the camera part that we had to tape off so it didnt disturb baby. My one new feature idea: a snooze option, to mute it for for 5 minutes if youre doing a light form of sleep training :-)

It was a decent camera for the price. I have been through 4 baby monitors in less than 2 years. The first two were different brands, one stopped charging and and the other the monitor just refused to turn on. I was really excited about this one because I have a smaller v-tech monitor for traveling and love it. It just doesnt have the remote camera movement feature that this one does. I was a a bit disappointed in the picture quality compared to the other v-tech I have. Then one day I accidentally dropped the monitor. It wasnt a hard or a far drop, maybe a foot and a half to 2 feet fall, it simply slipped out of my hand. Now the screen is cracked. I am very disapointed in the durability

Overall, I am pleased with my purchase. I did a lot of research beforehand and wanted a few months to try this monitor out before reviewing. I bought this monitor as a second monitor. I’m using it with my toddler and using my Eufy with the baby. I have to manage two monitors which can be annoying, but this whole system was a good bit cheaper than a eufy add on camera. This monitor does what we need it to and I think it works just as good as the much more expensive one we have. And the battery life on this Vtech is SO much better! -The monitor stays very zoomed in. It works for seeing my child in his bed, but wouldn’t show the whole room for any independent play time when he gets older. -My biggest complaint is that the stand is terrible. It is just a little wider at the base so the monitor doesn’t stay standing even if you barely bump it or if it’s plugged in and the chord turns. If it wasn’t for this, I would have rated the monitor higher! -The picture is very clear day or night. -The two way talk works well. -It’s simple and easy to use.

Good value for money

Need improvement for video quality. Battery life is also not long lasting.

I tried a different brand camera when my old Vtech stopped working after years of use. The new one was so blurry. I returned it and brought this one. It is so clear and easy to use. I will never buy any other brand.

Great battery usage, great quality and sound

I purchased the two camera system to replace an Infant Optics DXR-8 that was on its last legs after 4 years of service. The VTech has great range, battery life, and image quality. The night vision works really well. The scan feature is great when you are checking on two kids. Unfortunately the volume could never be adjusted low enough to make it work for us. The mics amplified the white noise and made it too loud to listen too overnight. We returned it and stuck with the DXR-8.

I really like this monitor, but every once in a while it will just refuse to connect to the camera. This happens mostly when the room is both light and dark. Its like the camera gets stuck trying to decide between night vision and color vision. Its a pain because you have to go in the kids room and turn the camera on and off to get it working. Other than that its great. I really like that it has a temperature function. My kids room is sometimes hotter or colder than other rooms so its nice to see if a window needs to be opened or if the heater needs to be turned up. Also note, this version CANNOT be expanded to 2 cameras. I found this out the hard way and wish Id purchased the one with 2 cameras.
