Pro 1080p HD Smart Baby Monitor & Flex Duo Stand, Featuring Split Screen and Alert Zone Function, Includes Small Breathing Band, White

Die Kamera funktioniert super bei Tag und bei Nacht mittels App. Die App verbraucht allerdings ziemlich schnell den Smartphone Akku, aber das ist das Produkt wirklich wert. Ich denke, es gibt nichts Vergleichbares auf dem deutschen Markt.

So far the monitor is working great. So many features, a lot we probably won't use but nice to have them there. Good build quality.

We’ve been using the Nanit baby monitor 24/7 for the last nine months, so I thought it was about time I wrote a review. The headline is, I wouldn’t buy it again. It feels like a baby monitor where the marketing push for subscriptions is miles ahead of what the product actually delivers. The positives - The camera quality is good. Crisp visuals and clear audio (aside from when white noise is playing, for obvious reasons). - The camera itself is small and fairly portable. Unfortunately, that’s about it for the positives. Although the camera is compact, it has to be mounted on a stand above the cot. Every time we go away, whether for one night or several, it’s an absolute faff to get the camera out from behind the cot, pack it up, load it into the car, and then set it all up again at the new location. We have friends with radio-based monitors that have a simple clip on the back, and after using this, we’re seriously considering getting one of those for our next trip. Staying on the topic of portability, this camera relies on Wifi. That means every time you go somewhere new (an Airbnb, a parent’s house, a friend’s place), you have to pair it with a new Wifi network. Sometimes this works first time, other times you have to turn it off and on and try again. In my experience, it usually connects within three attempts. The app itself is another major frustration. It often feels awkward and unintuitive, and it’s clearly designed to push you towards paid features. You’ll tap on options that appear to be standard, only to be met with a paywall for a very expensive subscription. I’m generally happy to pay for subscriptions if they offer good value, but the basic AI detection (awake, standing, being attended to) is really poor. It mis-detects around a quarter of events every day, which is far too high given how much they’re charging. On Android, there’s another issue. We had to buy a tablet to use as a dedicated overnight monitor or for grandparents, but the Android app won’t rotate properly into landscape. You can rotate the video feed, but the app itself stays in portrait mode, leaving huge empty bars on either side and a tiny video in the middle. Firmware updates are another pain point. I understand that a cloud connected device needs regular updates, but the way this is handled is terrible. Today (at 5am) I switched from my phone to the tablet as I was leaving for work, only for the tablet to announce that it had to enforce a firmware update and reboot immediately. There was no option to delay it. It didn’t even allow me to fade out or lower any sounds, it just cut them, rebooted, then turned them back on at the previous volume, waking the baby. It feels like this was designed without any consideration for real world usability. Internet dependency is another serious issue. There’s mention of a “local” mode, where you can add a local only user to view the camera over the wifi. However, if you haven’t set this up in advance and your internet goes down, you’ll discover that you can’t add users and often can’t access the camera at all. Sometimes it will say “local view only” for your accounts, but you can’t seem to force this mode. In my experience, if the device you’re using can’t access the internet, you can’t view the camera. There are plenty of threads online about this problem. It also means that when staying in rentals or Airbnbs, poor Wifi coverage can force you to move the travel cot into awkward places just to get a signal. The same is true for power, which affects more brands than just the Nanit, but as it requires mains power you will often need to travel with an extension lead as some of the older places we stay at don't have power sockets where you would tend to position a travel cot. Finally, the user management is unnecessarily complex. We have grandparents who occasionally look after the baby, and getting the app set up on their phones requires full user registration, email confirmation, and account setup. There’s no real benefit that justifies this level of friction. If I could go back in time, I wouldn’t buy this again. There’s clearly a heavy focus on driving users towards expensive subscription plans, but the app experience and AI quality just don’t justify the cost yet.

After persevering with this for 9 months I'd highly advise trying something else. Great ideas but the load times are terrible... Including when simply monitoring your baby, a load circle for 40 seconds for 3 seconds of viewing time!

After our Owlet baby monitor stopped working (after 1 use, but that’s another story) we decided to do some research, and checked out lots of reviews - the Nanit Pro seemed to be highly recommended. We’ve been using it now for a handful of days, but already we are so pleased we chose this one. We haven’t yet used the camera with the wall mount, just using the stand (although this limits your stats), which we’ve screwed onto a camera tripod. The picture quality is great, as too are the features. You can play sounds via the camera (birds, rain, wind, white noise) as well as turn on a night light atop the camera. You can also have audio from the camera constantly pass through to your phone / tablet, even in the background. It comes with a waist band and a swaddle which feature the black pattern that the camera reads. This is by far the greatest thing for peace of mind, as you can see your baby’s breaths per minute. We have the app installed on our phones and on our iPad, which is great for the kitchen at night when baby is in their crib and snoozing in between feeds. The camera also has night vision, so you can see baby even in the dark, which is brilliant. We can’t fault it, the software is great (which with some others can sometimes be annoyingly bad), the hardware is great, and it works reliably. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation. UPDATE: After 5 months of ownership, we’re still as pleased as we were when we initially wrote this review. We are now using the wall mounted camera, and it’s never skipped a beat, still would highly recommend to anyone looking for a baby cam.
