Infant Optics DXR-8 PRO Video Baby Monitor, 720P HD Resolution 5" Display, Patented A.N.R. (Active Noise Reduction), No WiFi, Pan Tilt Zoom, and Interchangeable Lenses

Love this monitor. I have tried many over the years and this is definitely my favorite. It’s intuitive, user friendly, has external control buttons for volume, it’s easy to set the scan feature, the video is very good, and the handset feels sturdy. I had the Babysense for many years and loved the functionality, BUT the casing of the parent unit was super flimsy and kept breaking, and eventually I replaced it with the Hello Baby, which I hated. SO cheap, so extremely basic, poor video quality. Ended up returning it and I was hesitating over the infant optics for a while because of the price, since we needed two cameras, and $100 just for a camera isn’t cheap, but I’m so glad I got it. We’ve only had it about a month so I’m hoping it will hold up. It definitely seems like good quality.

I've tried many different monitors and this by far is my favorite. I use them for both of my boys. It does reach pretty far away if you have to take it outside. I appreciate the diming of the screen for when im sleeping. The picture is very clear! And I love the big screen size.

I bought this as an emergency last-minute purchase when my InfantOptics DXR-8 (NOT-pro) finally died after 5 years of abuse (I can't tell you how many times that thing fell on the floor). I was really hating the non-pro version, and upgrading to the Pro, I can honestly say I am so impressed and feel like I have missed out on such a quality baby monitor all this time. The difference between the video quality between the DXR-8 and the Pro is huge. The range is much better, as the (non-pro)DXR-8 had really shoddy connection between opposite corners of my 2500 sqft house if we were relaxing downstairs while kiddo was asleep upstairs. I have not had any connection issues with the Pro in any room in my house. The ANR feature works well on single camera mode, but turns off during scan mode (as intended). This is not a dealbreaker for me anyway. I was relieved that the mounting bracket and wide angle lenses were interchangeable with my old non-Pro version, so I didn't need to buy replacements on those. I also appreciate that there is a physical button for the volume instead of having to open the menu for it. My ONLY complaint is that I do use the monitor to talk to my older kid sometimes, and immediately after speaking on it, there is a couple-second gap of time after releasing the microphone button where the monitor is still muted and I can't hear my kid since he always responds immediately. I'm going to have to teach him to pause before responding so I can hear. I've been using this thing for 3 days now and I can't stop staring at the crystal-clear picture of my baby sleeping so peacefully on this baby monitor <3

5 star product, 1 star for purchasing from Amazon. Bought the whole starter package with camera and monitor but only the monitor came, and it was definitely not brand new. I couldn't even get it to turn on. There was no camera or camera accessories, just the monitor and plug for it. I ended up having my baby before setting it up. My husband went to get it set up before we came home only to find it missing the camera. We ended up just buying a new one from Target on the way home from the hospital. He set it up and it's great!!! Amazing picture and sound. Great connection. No worry about wifi hacking. Its easy to set up and connect the camera to the monitor. We also bought the extra wide angle lens which is great for seeing the whole room but still allows you to zoom in enough to see the baby in the crib. The night vision is great too. We'll be getting more cameras to add too as you can have up to 4. But we'll probably skip Amazon this time and go straight to Target for those. For this one, we have to package it yourselves and print a label to send it back to Amazon. I don't want to have to go through the hassle again if it happens with the camera. Amazons quality control really seems to be lacking in the last year or two.

Great monitor. Picture and sound quality is amazing. No issues. Great piece of mind.

If you’re looking for a baby monitor; look no further. I have had three kids in the last four years and this monitor has been incredible! I had an owlet for my first born, which I did not like. It was WiFi and super spotty, constantly stopped working even though we had great internet. I bought this one when I was pregnant with my second, and LOVE it! It has an incredible picture and sound, and you can move the camera around with the monitor to get a better view. It has such a good quality picture you can see your baby breathing on the camera which I loved to help ease my anxiety when moving them to their crib. It has great range, and it’s super easy to add another camera to the same monitor if you have multiple kids. I bought another camera when I was pregnant with our third, and it took two seconds to connect. I also had an issue with my monitor so I emailed customer service, and they got back to me immediately and replaced my monitor even though it was outside of the warranty. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone in the market for a monitor! It doesn’t uses WiFi so you don’t have to worry about it being hacked and you can take it on vacations. Some people say the battery life isn’t that long, but I only keep it unplugged for naps so I’ve never had a problem. It probably lasts 4-5hrs using full brightness and sound before it needs a charge. Absolutely love it and highly recommend.

All good. Recommended

Was working fine for the first week, and now the monitor keeps on loosing it's connection to the camera

Product sent to me with US power plugs. Useless in the U.K. Really disappointing for a premium product. Now having to go through the inconvenience of the return and being left with no monitor.

Todo funcionaba bien pero de la nada el monito ya no prendió, 1 año 2 meses

I was putting off getting this monitor but I'm so glad I did. Yes the price is expensive but it works. The quality of the screen is superior and battery life is awesome. The best monitor and love its non wifi!
