  • Almost perfect
Set name: VM818-1 Cam
We got this monitor to replace our infant optics which was already on its last life and showing a terrible picture. Overall I'm very happy with the replacement purchase. The quality of this video is unmatched. We can see so clearly! The main two downsides: 1. Low sound. Compared to the infant optics this is so quiet at the highest volume, but I think it just takes time getting used to. We have a sound machine in my daughter's room and the old monitor picked up the white noise, this one doesn't. At first I hated that but I'm kind of used to it now. I can hear her when she's crying but if she's just talking it's hard to hear. 2 - battery life sucks! If you don't mind having a charger around then this is a non issue, but I was expecting longer than 4 hours at least. The only other comments I'll mention... You can't move the camera. Infant optics you can move it with the monitor but this stays in one place once it's mounted. I don't mind this though because the angle is so good that it covers a large portion of what you need. We have it above the crib and it captures the entirety of it! The last thing is the button to turn on the monitor... Most have it at the top but this is on the side and a bit hard to find at times (esp half asleep at night). Overall, these are all minor things that just take getting used to. I'm so happy we got this. We're even tempted to replace my son's one as well (he has hello baby). This monitor never once cut out for us... It doesn't interfere with other monitors. The infant optics constantly did! I would definitely recommend for picture quality. Overall I think it's great value! ... show more

  • Great!!! But not 100% for me, had to buy another system
Set name: VM919-1 Cam
No camera lights!!! (It goes off right after activation) I absolutely love this monitor! We have it in our bedroom and it’s mostly in a corner on a dresser it matches in style of wood- it matches the room and feels soft (as elegant as it might try to be- it actually does have style better than others!) I have used this for weeks now, and I could return it for a 4 camera system I am keeping around the house, which has a smaller more pocket friendly display (5”). This is so much bigger. It’s not too hard to carry, but I will be finding a small bag to protect it soon, mostly I kickstand it on the counter of kitchen to clean, and side table to watch movies at night. If I have to go declutter/tidy many rooms and do laundry, it gets a little harder to carry. I love love how easy and clear it is to see and hear Littles (which share a bedroom) at night on a great display, so it’s really won me on that. I can glance and it’s just a really good quality to be extra quick on getting reassurance it’s all good. There is a lot to love about this monitor, but it’s limited to one room/one camera... shrug, if it suits your space for that- I highly recommend this one. No camera lights are important, and also watch out for the battery life and this one has been just fine for these few weeks. ... show more

  • This is perfect!
Set name: VM919-1 Cam
I am very satisfied with this monitor. I got this product yesterday and so my tests and review are based on a short period of time. The screen is big and the resolution is great. You can see your baby’s face details and expressions very well. The sound, movement and temperature alerts are working great. The reception range is also great. I live in a two story apartment built from blocks and concrete, and the parent unit has no issues in receiving signal from the camera from a second level. The power adapters are rated 100-240 volts so you can safely use them in Europe. I live in a country that use 220v and connected the adapters through US to European power socket adapter, and everything works great. I like the fact that VTech pays attention to small details like adding a small Velcro style band to hold the power cord when not in use. The only downside I found is that the baby unit (the camera) doesn’t have a build in battery like the parent unit. So it always has to be connected to power via cord. And other small thing is that the minimum temperature alert can be set to 20c max. For example I want the alert to notify me if the temperature falls under 22c, but I can only set it to 20c max. ... show more

  • Works fairly well, get the job done, but not worthy the premium charge
Set name: Advanced HD-1 Cam
After a few weeks of use, here is my thoughts about this product: 1.Picture quality: 720P camera isn't a hype, it doesn't give me a clear picture, the night vision quality is really so so. Talk about another their selling point: IPS screen. The screen does provide better viewing angle but it is not the in-cell IPS screen like your touch screen mobile phone, there is a huge gap between the outside glass or plastic screen and the LCD screen layer just like $100 phone you can get at 15 years ago, that's the technology you will get on this IPS screen. 2.Sound quality: fairly speaking, the speaker quality on the camera unit sounds like trash, it maybe worth than a 5 box PC speaker you can get, so do not think about use it as a white noise machine, it sounds horrible compares to my Hatch Rest, but I'm not counting on using this Vtech as a white noise machine anyways, so it doesn't bother me. 3.Sensors: a) the microphone on camera unit is not as good as my old Vtech pure audio baby monitor they made like 8-10 years ago, the old audio only monitor does a good job of detect baby's cry and it still works perfectly. How ever the advanced video+audio monitor cannot detect the baby's cry very well when I compare them side by side. b) the motion detection senior, I would say they work most of the times, but I do caught quite a lot of times that it cannot detect the baby's movement (I set the sensibility to the highest level already) , so don't count on turning off the monitor screen and let the motion detection to trigger on your parent unit, you want your screen always on, period. c) don't think the temperature sensor is going to measure the baby's body temperature, it just tells the environment temperature where you placed it, I know some people may think it is going to measure body temperature. 4.Sigal and connectivity: the signal is fairly strong enough within 30 ft to 40 ft range and 2-3 walls or 1 floor (I didn't test the long range connectivity), but the signal delay is fairly high (more than half a second, significantly worse than the pure audio monitor). 5. Bugs and trouble-shooting: in the first I encountered the camera unit die, so the parent unit cannot connect with it, simple unplug the camera unit and re-plug it in, the problem solved. There is an annoying bug on its software I think, when I toggle off the night light of the camera unit, it will automatically turn back on immediately. reboot the camera unit can solve the problem, but the issue some times will repeat, it bothers me sometimes when I just want to keep the room dark for the baby. 6. Value for money: it depends on what price you get it for. It list at 99 box in general, I would say, if you already willing to spend this amount you absolutely want to go somewhere else like babysense, that will be a wised choice. But if you get this Vtech on promo like nearly half of its listing price, I would say grab it, there's not much can go wrong. ... show more

  • Two different monitors died within a year.
Set name: VM919-1 Cam
When this worked, it was great—exactly what I wanted, but I’ve gone through two of these in a year and now I’m livid. At first, I loved the large screen, the camera quality, the auto sleep/wake feature, and even the lullaby feature. Over time, the temperature gauge started reading things like 2 degrees, but I ignored that because I didn’t really care about that reading. But then I started having more problems. The monitor would randomly freeze or the monitor wouldn’t have any sound output, no matter the setting or volume level. It would randomly disconnect and wouldn’t reconnect, even when I was right next to the camera. And it seemed to have a new issue every time we took it down and set it back up for travel, which wasn’t often, but enough to make me angry. This has now happened twice where I would find the monitor had disconnected, turned the monitor off to turn it back on again; and it would not turn on, no matter what I did. The first time, I thought I just had a defective one, so I bought a new one. The new one did the same thing after about 3 months and now I’m moving on to any other monitor. I’m so mad because this monitor is not cheap and when it did work, it was exactly what I wanted. Oh well, time to move on. ... show more

  • Reliable and sturdy
Set name: VM928-2HD Cams
I am loving the 5” display. I’ve had the 7” in the past and this version seems much sturdier and I love the two cameras so I can see each child on one monitor.

  • Doesn’t last
Set name: VM928-2HD Cams
This camera lasted exactly 15 months to the day. It was OK, video and audio quality were reasonable for the price: you’re not getting HD quality, but you can see your kid and determine what they’re doing easily, it functioned well in that regard. My issue is that over the last 6 months the video monitors battery has slowly crapped out, regardless of how often/long it’s attached the the charging cord the “cordless” feature only functions when it feels like it. You may get 10hrs off cord or you may get 10 min. The battery meter is inaccurate and not a measure of how long it will last. If you only ever intend to use it on the charger, great, it functions well for the money. If you need to move it from room to room (like a normal parent existing in their home..), it’s not guaranteed to work. If you only need it to work for a year, this is a great buy for the cost.. but if you’re looking for a long term solution you might be better spending the extra $50-100 now and not having to spend it twice, plus the difference in a year. ... show more
