How to choose a video baby monitor?

When choosing a video baby monitor, you need to consider the following factors:

type of connection - most often models support a digital signal, more advanced ones are equipped with a Wi-Fi module. The main advantage of models with Wi-Fi is that there is no need to be tied to the range of the parent unit, since such models have integration with smartphones and tablets;
the presence of two-way communication - this will allow you to calm the baby or lull him to sleep at a distance, especially if at a certain moment it is not possible to be nearby;
viewing angle – not all cameras have the function of tracking a child automatically or via a tablet, so with a stationary installation it is necessary to monitor the area covered by the camera;
diagonal of the parent tablet - the larger it is, the higher quality the transmitted image will be and the easier it is to see the situation in the room.

The best inexpensive video baby monitors

In the category of inexpensive devices, we will consider budget options for video nannies mainly for basic monitoring of the baby.

Ramili Baby RV500

Rating: 4.6

The popular and inexpensive video baby monitor Ramili Baby RV500 involves connecting one or two cameras at once with a split screen on the parent unit. This function is necessary if there are two children in the house. The system consists of a pan-tilt camera with night vision function and a parent tablet with a 10.9 cm (4.3 inch) screen diagonal. The signal is transmitted over a distance of up to 300 meters, while the devices are equipped with an anti-interference function that ensures reliable pairing between the camera and the tablet. The video baby monitor can operate in continuous monitoring mode, but it quickly consumes battery power. By the way, the tablet has its own Li-Pol battery, the camera can be connected either to an electrical outlet or to a regular Power Bank, and it also has a 1/4″ UNC threaded hole for mounting on a tripod. Among the useful functions, we note the sound activation of the camera with sensitivity settings, feeding timer, built-in thermometer, built-in lullabies. Alerts on the parent tablet are carried out by sound and light signals.

Advantages

Rotating camera with a viewing angle of 350 degrees horizontally and 110 degrees vertically;
Night vision, 8 IR diodes;
Continuous monitoring mode;
Built-in timer and feeding timer;
Mounting the camera on a tripod, including a flexible one for a crib or stroller;
Long-lasting battery in the tablet (up to 10 hours);
Connecting two cameras.

Flaws

When connecting two cameras, the VOX function is only available for one of them.

Maman BM2600

Rating: 4.5

The Maman BM2600 video baby monitor has a transmission range of video images and sounds of 300 meters. The device allows you to maintain two-way communication with a child or adult, it has a VOX voice activation sensor, infrared illumination for night monitoring, even a built-in thermometer for measuring room temperature. A camera with 2x Zoom only works from the network, which is not liked by all users, but there is no risk of signal loss due to an unexpectedly dead battery. The parent monitor is convenient - despite the small screen of only 6.1 cm (2.4 inches), it has optimal image transmission - the child is always visible, the reaction to sound is LED, there is a light and sound indication of the battery charge level on the unit. A beep will also sound if the tablet and camera signal are lost. The parameters of sound sensitivity and brightness are adjustable for comfortable use of the system.

Advantages

Voice activation VOX;
Two-way communication between camera and tablet;
Night surveillance with IR illumination;
Indication of signals on the tablet with sound and light;
Intuitive user-friendly interface.

Flaws

The camera operates only from the electrical network;
Average image quality.

Luvion Easy

Rating: 4.4

The Luvion Easy video baby monitor has proven itself well for use in city apartments. The small camera can monitor both day and night, but its Zoom is weak, to put it mildly. The screen on the parental remote control is only 2 inches, but the receiver itself is small, convenient to carry in your pocket. Switching on and off occurs using a sound sensor, the temperature in the room is monitored, the video baby monitor has no other sensors, but there is two-way voice communication. The pairing radius of the camera and the parental remote control in an open area is 300 meters, but, judging by reviews, in an apartment it is no more than 50 meters; the lack of protection against interference can deform the signal or weaken it. The receiving remote is powered by a battery, which runs out fairly quickly with constant use.

Advantages

Compact camera and miniature parental remote control;
VOX function;
Night surveillance mode;
Built-in thermometer;
Two-way voice communication;
Signal to exit the interface between the camera and the remote control.

Flaws

The remote control battery discharges quickly;
Frequent interference during signal transmission when electronics are operating nearby.

Motorola MBP481

Rating: 4.3

The Motorola MBP481 video baby monitor was created back in 2021, but it entered the market so successfully that it is still popular among young parents. This is a complex of a small camera and a parent unit with a 2-inch color screen, powered by direct current and built-in batteries, which, however, do not last long. In open space, the camera and the parent receiver communicate at a distance of up to 200 meters; this is the optimal solution for both an apartment and a small private house. Surveillance at night? – no question, the camera has built-in invisible infrared illumination, providing visibility up to 5 meters with good image transmission, which is largely ensured by Zoom, which is good for the price category. Among the useful additional functions, we note the feeding timer, which is so necessary for young parents.

Advantages

Good quality of the transmitted picture;
Night IR illumination;
There is a light indication of noise;
Batteries in the parent unit;
Compact sizes.

Flaws

The batteries in the parent unit do not last long;
Small screen.
