VTech - Video Baby Monitor with Wi-Fi camera and 5" Screen - White

I had this thing working ALL DAY and suddenly I got the constant disconnect problems the 1 star reviews talked about. In anger I rebooted it multiple times, reconnected it multiple times, I even yelled at it to no avail when I noticed something. The power cable on the camera itself had came out JUST SLIGHTLY. I also remembered in the instructions they specifically had a part showing a pic of an incorrect plug vs. a correct plug, the only difference being that it's pushed in all the way in the correct one. On a hunch I checked my plug, and sure enough it had disconnected (probably from moving it angle wise a few times throughout the day) just enough to be loose, yet still provide power to the unit to some degree. Once clicked back in all the way it stopped flashing the LINK light at me every 3 seconds and was functioning again. Unbelievable, right?

Bought this monitor last night with mixed reviews since I seen so many bad reviews on other VTech monitors. I decided to take a leap of faith since I’ve had other VTech items that I loved and I’m so glad I did! I absolutely love this monitor there isn’t a thing about it that I’ve found that I don’t like. I would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a monitor to get this one!

Good price, but the battery life is AWFUL, ours lasts maybe a couple of hours off the charger before it has to be plugged back in. Every now and then i have to repair the camera cause it fails to connect. Little issues that I would expect for the price of purchase, overall content with the price point and product. If I paid $400 for this product though I’d be very disappointed.

This is very durable. My son has had it out for this monitor ever since he learned to crawl, and he's 2 and a half years old now. It still works great. Only issue is the range. Sometimes it is great and sometimes they don't work in adjoining rooms. But that could be from all of the physical abuse.

I use this camera everyday. It is overall good. Sometimes I have a lag in the internet and connection to the camera. If we use it somewhere new you have to pair the camera and screen again and it takes a bit, while also being a bit noisy (not the most convenient while baby is asleep). I like the zoom feature and that you can adjust the camera view through the portable screen. A very generous size screen. The view is also good when using the app on the phone. I would buy this camera again.

I had been searching for a hybrid unit that would allow monitoring by a dedicated screen, that we could leave in our bedroom, and also by smartphone. A lot of the other units had bad reviews and connectivity issues, so I was a little hesitant about this one. However, it did not disappoint. It was pretty easy to set up. Video quality is really good. Connectivity to the monitor and phone is reliable (unless it is trying to update the firmware). It is pretty customizable. It is hardly noticeable in the baby's room, even when in night mode. The only think that would be nice is a tilt and rotate feature on the camera.

Great monitor and does everything it is suppose to do!! Needing a monitor without breaking the bank, my wife and I chose this VTech monitor after doing research on other models from VTech and other brands. The camera is clear for our needs and so far, having this monitor for a couple weeks now, it has been great and continues to do well!! Setup was easy as the instructions guide you to the very end to get it up and running, The main monitor is clear to view and good size!! We love that it has the ability to sync up to your smartphone so that if you are away from the house you can check in from time to time. About the only minor flaw I see, is that when you want to talk on the two-way control, I find it a slight inconvenience, to have to hold down the "talk" button on the main monitor to talk through the camera's mic. It would be nice if VTech would make it as you only have to "press" the "talk" button and it will engage the mic instead of having to hold it down. OR have it where you Press the button and when sounds from the room you have the camera in is transmitting sound to the monitor you don't have to do anything else just talk and talk back and forth like an intercom!! To me this is a minor issue and doesn't take away from the overall effectiveness of this monitor!! If you are looking for such a monitor in a sea of other brands, THIS monitor hits the spot in terms of function and overall price!!
