Poor design

Camera doesn't go down far enough.
Battery only good for around 5 hrs.
If you use the lullabies the sound on the monitor is deafening so you have to mute it which defeats the purpose.
The monitor charger is a silly design that we've found damages the unit as it only fits in one way and in the middle of the night when it's dark and your tired becomes an issue.
Picture quality isn't great especially in low light. Show details

A Dream For A Wriggly Kid

UPDATE 10/4/2020

While I’d still say that the visual component of this baby monitor is unparalleled and absolutely phenomenal for a wriggly kid - I’m sorry to report the audio is abysmal on the parenting unit. It just cuts out willy nilly, mid cry, mid conversation..

I contacted Oricom and their customer service was great, they sent me a replacement immediately for which I was grateful.
However the replacement did the exact same thing.
I moved the parent unit around the house to make sure the signal somehow wasn’t being disrupted in our (very... Read more

small) 2 bedroom apartment. No dice. The audio just doesn’t work. Once again the oricom customer service team were great, immediately gave me some sort of refund code for baby bunting (although baby bunting wouldn’t provide a refund, they’d only give me store credit, which is annoying because no baby monitor that is stocked there has very good reviews) so anyway - it’s with regret I redact the below review. If you don’t care about audio and all you care about is a visual monitor, this is a good unit for you. It’s worth noting that the visual is so good and clear and tracks so well that I almost kept it just for the visual monitoring but decided I wanted audio too. Sad, really. ********* My daughter is the world’s wriggliest sleeper and this is the first monitor I’ve come across that tracks her and helps me see her at all times. The range of motion and the proficiency of which it tracks is second to none, clear and wonderful image. Easy set up, plug in and go. Reliable and fantastic visual. Huge screen, very clear. Parent monitor is great and sturdy. I’ve found the audio can be a bit spotty but wonder if that’s because I’m in a double brick apartment (I’m unsure that’s entirely true). To clarify, when I say spotty, I can hear my child every time she cries but we’re I to used try to have a conversation through the monitor with my daughter, her audio will cut in and out. A bit annoying but not a real deterrent as I don’t particularly want to speak to her when she’s sleeping anyway and the light up function to show when noise is coming from her room even with the audio is on mute is sufficient. Only other thing I’d say is the charging mechanism is a micro USB style of fitting which I find to be annoying and I think a grandparent who wasn’t wearing their glasses has already shoved the charger in upside down and maybe ruined (or at least definitely) damaged the change function. Admittedly, this is a grandparent flaw not a design flaw, but I do prefer charging cables that are Micro USB fit as I think there’s room for tired error. All in all, the pros out weigh the cons and I’m very happy with my purchase.
