Best Baby Monitors

The camera is great quality and has some good features like panning and zoom. Only negative is the battery but once you work out the right Vox… Read more

settings etc... it's fine. We've had two different issues, one with camera one with the monitor and both times the customer service team were super quick to respond and replace, even slightly out of warranty period. I know you hear a lot about how this is white labeled and just an Ali baba rebrand but the customer service in itself makes it worth the price.

The customer service team was very supportive, understanding, and communicated effectively during the return process when I notified them that I would be returning the unopened items.

Disappointing – Facts: - Battery life terrible - Picture quality average - The battery on the unit swelled and was unusable without the charging cable after about 9… Read more

months of use - Zoom function not really beneficial at all. - Range was ok

Purchased after reading reviews from this site and others. Wouldn't recommend.

Useless - thinks a baby is there when it isn't – Useless - you can remove the baby and it still thinks the baby is there. Just sits there flashing away happily. Worst purchase I've made for our child. Show details

Customer service is amazing, sent us a new camera as our original one stopped showing the temperature. However, our monitor has now stopped working after being dropped from a very low height. Show details

The device doesn’t even last a year and constantly triggers false alarms. I used a Snuza years ago with another child, and the quality back then was… Read more

far better—this version doesn’t compare. It’s falling apart, the buttons barely work, and the false alarms never stop. Customer service is awful too; they don’t bother reading your email or asking about the problem to improve their product. Instead, they just offered me a discount on another poorly made device. Both the quality and support are a letdown.

Don’t waste your money and time.

Don’t waste your money – Bought a baby monitor from oricom which I discovered was faulty within a couple of days. Tried to return and their returns process is absolutely… Read more

shocking, customer service non existent. Even though the item is faulty I still have to pay for shipping plus a restocking fee. Waiting weeks for them to respond to simple emails to arrange the return and when you call them the line disconnects before you can talk to anyone.

We just have the ankle bracelet and base unit. Unfortunately it just doesn't hit the mark for value. If you forget to pair it each time, you can… Read more

guarantee youll have to go and wake your bubs up. Also I think they could have done far better with the app, you can not set upper and lower limits for alarms so if youre monitoring you can almost be certain youll be up all night watching. Also it takes sometimes 40 minutes to calculate a skin temp baseline which absolutely sucks for those arvo naps. Honestly I would look elsewhere. The lady at baby bunting actually gave me the number for oricom when I purchased it assuming im not the only person that can't predict the missing information from the instruction manual

5 replacements all with similar issues Cheap, Tinny Rubbish! I did a lot of research into baby monitors before deciding on Oricom. What a mistake… Read more

that was. Wish I had someone to talk me out of it.

A few points to keep in mind * Faulty strobing/flickering night light. Disruptive to child’s sleep. (Strobing/flickering not a feature)(Would occur without nightlight feature being used at all) This issue occurred within a few months of receiving each replacement.

* Temperature sensor is extremely inaccurate. Ended up using a separate Bluetooth thermometer. Regular warnings of High Temperatures when it was not even close.

* Motion detection was hit and miss at best. For example, Child fell out of bed a couple of times and it wasn’t captured at all.

* Monitor speaker - is very poor quality. Suppose to play lullabies and noises. Comes out as a very static sounds. The ability to speak to your child through the camera is incoherent, if heard at all.

* Separate monitor display has a poor battery life and if slow to turn on.

Oricom will not provide a refund despite reoccurring issues with every replacement. They continue to push their rubbish product until your warranty is up.

Do yourself a favour avoid Oricom entirely. You will not get the support you would expect when the time comes from such a big company.

The sock and data it records is great, I love how accurate it records and shows the side sleeping etc. However, it’s a complete shame the amount of… Read more

alerts it gives. If I take my baby to the next room to change and feed her it alerts so loud every time. You can turn it off however do this at 3am and 5am etc is so annoying to remember. She can’t wear it around the house during the day because the sock needs to be in the one room with the base. I think they need to have an option like the eufy sock to lower the alert sounds and disable sounds for sock disconnected etc. it would make this so much more user friendly. It is honestly a shame because as I said the sock data itself is actually very good. I am now using the eufy sock which isn’t as great with the data but it works in any room and no false alarms randomly.

Finally some sleep – This thing is just the best investment ever. Honestly, it really is. Our 4 week old baby stopped breathing, ambulance, hospital stay, unexplained… Read more

absence of breathing... Snuza Pico is the only reason we sleep. It is currently ticking away next to me, and the sound is so soothing.

Easily attaches to bubs nappy, I attach it to her front, right to the side and it works perfectly, also works better with a onsie than top and bottoms, I suggest tucking shirt into pants if you go this route as clothes can get in the way of the monitor. Turn on and off with my phone from the very easy to use app, monitoring her breathing rate, temperature, sleep state and position, you can set your own alarm boundaries, you can chart their temp, breathing, position and sleep state all from the app.

It has alarmed a few times for her not breathing, so I can tell you its definitely worth the investment. She's nearly 6 months old now, and we will definitely be using Pico for a long time to come.

This Pico has also roused her a dozen times when she had no movement for 15 seconds. Very long battery life, easy click in charging in the secure charging unit. I bought hers second hand, and it is ticking on no worries.can be used without the app too. One downside (if there is one) is that the connection is soft, it can drop out easily, but links back up asap.

Not worth it – Very overpriced thermometer and I don’t believe the temperature is accurate (three other thermometers show a different temperature). I ended up… Read more

purchasing a heatermate which seems to be much more accurate and reliable. My son has been sleeping so much better after purchasing the heatermate.

Really handy and helpful – I bought this online after when my second baby was about a week old. I took my Itzbeen with me everywhere - the size is perfect for a nappy bag or… Read more

handbag - and it lived on my bedside table of a night time to help with night time feeds. The night light was perfect to quickly check on bub while he was sleeping and also for me to get myself organised for feeds and expressing.

This is one handy little gadget that I wished I had with my first son! Size - although at first it was smaller than I expected, it was actually a great size

Purchased in September 2021 for $276. The battery pack expanded and the battery case did not fit on to close the battery. Oricom replaced the battery… Read more

in December 2022. The same thing happened again and the battery lasts less than 10 minutes. The product page advertises it can last up to 6 hours. I don't think this is an acceptable standard of quality for an expensive product from a reputable brand. I don't think it is fit for purpose. If I had know this was to be expected I wouldn't have bought this product and now have to find a suitable product. We are currently using the product on mains power only, since the expanded battery is not safe. That does not allow us to go outside or move around the house as we normally would. We have just bought a Tweetycam after reading lots of reviews. I expected a baby monitor would last until I no longer needed it.

The picture isn't particularly clear and the touchscreen is fiddly.

Annoyingly the camera doesn’t charge, it has to be plugged in to work. This really limits portability and where you can use it and isn’t reflected on the website or in the photos on the walkabout website. Quality seems good however. Show details

Great support – Using it for more than 18 months already. Won't lie that there were no issues with the camera, but the support was very responsive and most importantly quick in resolving. Shout to Janet in particular. Show details

Oricom support – I have contacted Oricom twice about my unit and Janet Salama has given me the best service replying quickly and fixing the problem fast. I have twins… Read more

so rely on that monitor greatly. She is so very helpful and I appreciate her amazing service so much we need more people in customer service like her and I hope she gets recognised for this Thankyou Allanah

Great product one shortfall – I have an M7 & M8 and love them, the lights, music and story features and playlists can buy precious time in the morning. I don’t use the various… Read more

alarms, dirty nappy detect air quality etc but these work well with sone variance of course.

But the white noise depends on an internet connection, this is a major flaw as if you use white noise every night as we do, sooner or later any internet connection will falter overnight resulting in waking the children, when they get used to white noise and it gues off it wakes our children. Happened about three times a year for us so we bought separate devices for white noise. The temperature sensor is off my 3 degrees also, no big deal once you get used to it.

Worst baby monitor – Only works in range within 1 metre direct line of sight. Out of range even if you turn around and block by your body.

Several faults, poor customer service – Worked fine at first. Easy enough to install. After a while the night vision stopped working. Contacted support and got a replacement with minimal… Read more

effort. Soon after that the screen started faulting. Customer support never responded at all. Now the replacement camera has faulty night vision also.

I don't recommend this product or supplier.

I have owned this camera for 1 year, & have had constant issues with a) the battery never charging past 2 bars, b) the battery depleting after 2… Read more

hours and c) the parent unit randomly turning itself off at night when plugged into the mains - sometimes after a few hours, sometimes after just 20 minutes. We replaced the battery with a new one and it made no difference to any of these issues at all. All in all, a very flawed and ultimately useless product. We replaced it with a Uniden BW2511 for the same price and it's a night and day difference in reliability and quality.

Severely disappointed and filled with regret. I watched youtube tutorials of this product to see how it worked when I decided to purchase - if only… Read more

it DID as promised! The charge points are frail and don’t sit properly. Despite having multiple wifi signals to connect to, it consistently drops out. “No Link”. Despite motion sensor turned OFF, it turns on its own. I can’t control the camera from the monitor - it feels like it’s FIGHTING me. Auto turns off within minutes. I wanted this product so I could get things done around the house and monitor while bub napped, but I find myself spending so much wasted time trying to fix and reset the monitor until I just give up. More than defeats the purpose when I get it working and within a minute the camera drops link or moves out of view on its own and I have to keep sneaking into the nursery to adjust.

Not worth the money your paying for – Not worth the money..screen keeps turning white or sometimes blurry.Tried resetting hundred times same problem keeps happening. Show details

Some issues but Oricom very helpful – We have had some issues with the baby camera, the charging cord broke at the connection point after 12 months, but Oricom happily replaced us with 2… Read more

new ones. And the parent unit just after 2 years could no longer be heard, the sound wasn’t coming through the parent unit, (it still came through on the app) but Oricom where amazing and are sending us a replacement parent unit as the device is less then 6 months outside of its warranty. So despite having a few issue, we’ve been impressed with replacements. The camera and parent unit when working, are amazing.

TERRIBLE product back and fourth to customer service for MONTHS with no fix, keeps dropping out during the night have to reboot the whole thing it… Read more

defeats the purpose of a safety camera when it just stops working therefore no alerts to any dangers which is the literal reason for it. HORRIBLE customer service they go around and around in circles always saying "no internet connection" even though i have never had any other problems with my internet!! DO NOT BUY. also worth noting i had problems within the first few months of this product faulting and still no replacement or fix of the product

RUBBISH! Unit lasted 2years. Poor quality. Look elsewhere & for another brand. Not the premium brand I thought it was – The monitor only lasted 2 years. Don’t waste your money. Show details

Exactly everything I needed – no more, no less – This monitor has the perfect set of features, no useless frills. It's incredibly intuitive to use – they couldn't possibly improve it! So please… Read more

Vtech don't even bother trying. Many reviews complain about the battery life, but just put your own better rechargeable AA instead of using the default ones and voila, problem solved.

Works well as intended – Definitely gives me peace at night knowing it will beep if my newborn stops breathing. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is because it has… Read more

a few issues: 1. It connects to WiFi and interferes with the internet which results in slow/no signal in the room. 2. The screen is difficult to work with the button's and Instruction's are not as clear. Would have preferred a touch screen. I paid $100 less than the RRP. I don’t think it’s worth the full price. Other than that it automatically detects night vision so you can see clearly. The screen is good quality. The volume and sound is good. It switches off if no sound is detected. You can take the screen with you and the battery lasts a few days. I took it outside and it was still working. The range is really good.

When I first purchased this monitor the connection would consistently disconnect between the monitor and the camera. Oricom replaced the camera which… Read more

temporarily fixed that issue. Unfortunately, the connection on the monitor will randomly drop out in the middle of the night (despite there being good wifi) meaning we lie in bed listening to the beeping and have to get up in the night go to the other room and switch off the monitor. The charging cable will also randomly disconnect meaning the monitor will also start beeping in the night. How ironic that the monitor is waking us up more than our 3 month old baby! This product is frustrating and unreliable. Have lost all faith in the quality and reliability of the Oricom brand.

DO NOT BUY. This product is not worth the hassle. The paring process fails every single time. We were conned into buying a replacement monitor which has the same issues from new. It simply cannot be paired to the camera. Absolutely trash product. Show details
