VTech VM350 No WiFi Video Baby Monitor - 5" High-Resolution Screen, Fixed Camera with 2X Zoom, 1000ft Range, Automatic Night Vision, 2-Way Talk, Lullabies, Temperature Sensor

This is a great baby monitor that does not need to connect to wifi! It is super easy to use and the monitor has a good battery life on it. I use this when traveling and for the price, it really is a great product! I have yet to have any problems with it! While I do love it, I am not sure I would make this my primary monitor (personally) I feel the wire that connects to the monitor is quite short and getting the best angle would be a little difficult for full-time use. The picture is too zoomed in for me and I prefer to see the whole body. None-the-less, the picture quality is great and audio works well for a great price, I wont leave out of town without this.

This product is incredible, my baby is 11 months old now and we have been using it every single day for 11 months with no decline in its abilities. We use it every single night, and during the day for our baby’s naps. We have never had any connection issues, it is not connected to the Wi-Fi so it can always work. The battery life is still incredible, I don’t think I’ve ever lost battery even when I accidentally leave it on all day. I keep it plugged in all night too. I like the small screen, you can fit it in your pocket and even go garden outside with it, and the connection still stays. I think the only negative I have found is that if the power goes out it doesn’t work. Because the physical camera needs to be plugged in. So unless you’re in an area that gets power outages all the time, I highly recommend this product. We bought a second one just to throw in our diaper bag, so that when we visit family or go out of town, we just have a second one ready to set up in any room at all times. As for the image quality, I find it perfectly fine. If you are an insanely anxious parent and need to be able to see the physical air come in and out of your baby’s nostrils, it probably is not high-quality enough for you. I could usually see my baby breathing if I looked long/hard enough. But mainly it’s just good at seeing how your baby is shifting around, and the microphone is incredibly good so you can absolutely hear when the baby is crying or rustling around. It definitely has night vision, I can totally see my baby at night in the dark. I do wish I could switch between night and day vision sometimes, because every so often (usually in the pack n play with the White mesh) it gets confused and switches it to the wrong setting and then I have trouble seeing my baby.

I found this monitor to be very user friendly, and easy to go from box-to-use in minutes. The camera and monitor come connected, that was a nice plus. The monitor is pleasantly small, I’m able to put it in my pocket if my hands are full doing laundry/moving from room to room. The night vision detection adjusts almost instantly and has a nice image. Clear sound coming from the monitor and from the camera when talking to baby. Overall, a great quality monitor.

The VM819 model has surprisingly poor range, with audio cutting in and out for seconds at a time just a short distance away. The PTZ version (VM923), on the other hand, has outstanding range thanks to external antennas on each end, better than anything else I've tested. (Though the PTZ camera is larger, in case that's a consideration.) Any successor to the VM819 really should adopt the external antennas of the VM923. Unfortunately, the parent unit for the VM923 (not interchangeable with the VM819's) allows only panning with the hard buttons, requiring a trip through the (very slow) menu to adjust the volume. (In contrast, the VM819 uses the hard buttons for volume and brightness.) This really should have been configurable on the VM923 parent unit. This was the deal-breaker for me, since I nearly never need to aim the camera and frequently need to adjust the volume (and I need better range than the VM819). I ended up going with the Babysense V24R, with sensible button layout and excellent range (somewhat less than the VM923, but far better than VM819), and a more compact parent unit. Both the VM819 and VM923 have a non-replaceable battery in the parent unit and have an extremely slow UI, taking several seconds to toggle the display off to monitor audio only. (This made adjusting volume on the VM923 even worse.) Also, as others have noted, the alert tone when the parent unit loses signal is *extremely* loud, no matter your selected volume. These are all better on the V24R. That said, when in range, the VM819 and VM923 video and audio are fine, and the camera and display both work well.

Solid product, works as expected I’ve been using this product for a little while now and overall I’m very satisfied with it. It arrived well-packaged and matched the description on the listing. Setup/use was straightforward, and it performed as expected right out of the box. The build quality feels good for the price, and so far I haven’t had any issues. It does what it’s supposed to do and fits well into my daily routine. I appreciate the thoughtful design and ease of use. Overall, this is a good value and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for something like this.

Works great . Easy to set up and clear picture. Reaches far and can hear clearly.

Great baby monitor, very versitile, can be used for various applications. I can walk all around the house and no glitches. Connects right away and has a strong battery life. Very good sound quality and top left corner lights up when noise is detected. I recommend this product.

This is my third or fourth baby monitor purchase that I’ve kept, but I’ve probably bought close to 7 of 8 monitors total. I have a 9yo who doesn’t sleep well and sleep walks, so it’s imperative that I have a video monitor. The nighttime quality is awful. But I can at least hear her if she wakes up. I’ve only had it installed about a week but so far, it’s helped me see her leave her room. The huge disadvantages are the poor video quality? The fact that you can’t pan/tilt the monitor from the display and that if you have a small room, you can’t visually see the whole room as it’s super zoomed in. While it’s not the best I’ve had, it’s not the worst I’ve purchased. But I truly would invest in this camera unless the room is quite big, or if you have a small baby that you need good nighttime video quality,
