Though if you do go out of range, a little beep on the parent monitor will let you know. The talk-back audio was really clear and the signal strength remained strong wherever in the house our tester was. It has a whole host of features, including seven different night-light shades, five lullabies (that don’t at all sound tinny) and a temperature sensor. It’s essentially operated by four buttons and the silent, motorised camera allows you to pan, tilt and zoom remotely via the parent unit to get the best view of your baby. It also comes with a wall-mounting kit if you’d prefer it up in the air, rather than on a flat surface. Great news for tech-phobes: our tester managed to set up this model without even looking at the instructions – so in terms of getting this up and running with a newborn in tow, it couldn’t be easier. Pros: 360 camera, silent remote pan and tilt, easy set-upĬons: No app connectivity, higher price point for traditional monitor All in all, this is a solid choice for parents who want crisp video and sound, and to monitor their baby’s sleeping habits.
The temperature and humidity sensor dongle clips into the power port, which our tester found to be pretty accurate. There’s also the option to record and take photos, and the monitor will integrate with smart home devices like Google Home and Alexa. The cry-detection feature worked well, too, alerting our tester with a little chirp.

The monitor connects to an app on your smartphone, which could be a pro or a con. As is the HD image quality, both in the day and night. There’s a night light on the top and a built-in speaker at the back for soothing lullabies and two-way audio.Īnd speaking of audio, the sound is crystal-clear. It’s definitely one of the more aesthetically pleasing styles, too – the glossy white camera is shaped like a baby bird with a faux-wood finish. Attached to either the wall mount or a weighted floor stand, the Sony wide-angle rotatable lens will give you a bird’s-eye view of baby’s cot, which means you’ll never be worrying about where to balance it.
How easy this monitor was to set up was one of its biggest selling points – so even if you’ve not had time to do it before baby arrives, it’s straightforward enough to not send sleep-deprived parents into meltdown. Pros: Brilliant image quality and audio, covered face alerts, easy set up, stylish designĬons: Some features require a subscription after the first year, no parent unit And while they’re a handy addition for new or anxious parents, keep in mind they’re not 100 per cent accurate. Wearable elements – like wraps or socks – will allow you to monitor more than just your baby’s crying or movements, including their breathing, oxygen levels or temperature.

It’s also vital that you secure your Wi-Fi monitor with a unique password to prevent it potentially being accessed by hackers. This does mean no parent unit though, so if you’re someone who likes to turn off your devices in the evening, it might be that you opt for something more traditional. These connect through Wi-Fi via an app on your smartphone or tablet, which means you can check in on your baby even when you’re not in the house.
