Excellent range

Reviewed in Australia on 2 February 2020

Verified Purchase

Purchased this monitor as our old monitors range wasn’t cutting it in our new home. This monitor has fantastic range! Connects through several walls and doors over a big distance. The picture quality is also great. The only downside is the “wide angle lense” has to be purchased as an add on which I would recommend

This is the best baby monitor I have used

Reviewed in Australia on 19 June 2018

This is the best baby monitor I have used. The customer service is excellent, they reply promptly and efficiently. The image is clear and consistent with no drop outs. The best feature is the battery life of the monitor and the distance of the reception. We can be in the basement with the baby on the second floor and it still works. Highly recommended!

Easy to set up and the image is crystal clear. This is the third monitor we’ve purchased and the best quality by far. Very reliable signal and we can use it in the garden, which is all the way on the other side of the house. Very happy!

* One-Stop, Top-Tier ALL YOU NEED Baby Monitor System *

Reviewed in the United States on 1 December 2018

Verified Purchase

Top tier product. Extremely well thought out and designed. We have had ours for 6 months or so. I did a ton of research and review reading before we chose this monitor to include separate stand-alone video cameras and monitors with separate audio monitors. Here’s a summary of the best elements and why you would do well to buy this one.

My brother bought a stand alone HD 1080p video quality camera to monitor his kids. However, you must have a WiFi connection to set it up on. They also needed a separate audio monitor solution with the setup they chose. Also, they have to monitor the camera with an app, which based on our real-life experience with the DXR-8 would no longer be a consideration for us.

Having a self-contained system in the DXR-8 is absolutely the simplest and best option for a number of reasons in our opinion. Firstly, it is stand alone and does not require WiFi, it communicates directly from the camera to the monitor. Also, you don’t need to have an app on your phone which is soooo nice, because you can have the monitor up and listening to audio at all times and still have your phone free for all the things you do on there. Having this self-contained system is awesome, when we go to the Lakehouse or to a hotel when traveling the DXR-8 is small and a snap to pack up and set up in the new location - no trying to get WiFi access. It is - quite simply - effortless.

Also, I cannot think of a practical need for a higher-resolution monitor (screen) for monitoring your baby while they sleep or play. The primary things we watch for is 1) are they breathing, 2) how are they positioned in the crib, 3) are they sleeping or fighting going to sleep. The resolution on the DXR-8 is more than adequate for all of those things. Plus, and one of the most exceptional feature - is the zoom feature. While they do have several different lenses you can put on the camera (which is awesome), we found that the standard lense works best for us BECAUSE OF THE ZOOM OPTION! So we can set the camera on the corner of the crib with some Gorilla tape underneath it to hold it in place, or we can set it across the room and zoom in and still see everything we need to see. Then of course you can pan left and right and tilt up and down, so you can do everything you can possibly conceive of with this system.

Also, and we didn’t realize this being new parents when we bought this - most of the time, and throughout the night - audio cues are primarily what you will be paying attention to. You can flip on the camera anytime, and it has settings for staying on 3min or 5min before the screen blanks, or until you click the button again to turn the image off again. Having the camera off extends the battery life. If you need to keep the audio turned off, any sounds the baby makes will still register a color scale on the left side of the screen from red (low volume sounds) to green (high volume sounds) so you can still monitor audio activity without having the volume up. My spouse and I take turns having the monitor every other night, and if our son wakes us up initially with a sound, we can turn the volume off and continue to monitor the audio level with the led register.

Also you can dim the screen, we have it on full dim at night so it doesn’t completely light up our bedroom in the middle of the night if we check on him. It brightens plenty to see it outside during the daytime as well.

And I could write more great details on the night mode as well as day mode. Also, the camera pan and tilt is not noisy as I had read in one review. While it may not be completely silent, it it definitely not a significant source of sound and has never had an effect on our sleeping child.

And on top of all that, their customer service is absolutely top-tier. Gladys has helped us twice since we’ve had the product. We have had a battery start to have issues with not holding a charge and they rapidly got the replacement process started the same day we reached out to them. I don’t know if you’ll get Gladys, but whoever you get will be as excellent as her I’m sure. There are real people in the support department and they treat you like a person; you’re not just another number feeling like getting real support help is more theoretical then it is practical with these guys.

So, highly recommmend from A to Z. Don’t think you can go wrong with this! Also you can pair up to 4 cameras to the one monitor. We just move the camera around during the day, but you could install one in the nursery, on in the living room, and wherever else you like - and switch between them all with one monitor.

Hope this has helped if you’re a research nerd like I am. I had to read multiple reviews in multiple different locations to make my final decision on what to buy. Hopefully this review has been thorough enough to help you learn all you need to know about the DXR-8. Maybe it’s not what your looking for, but I would be hard-pressed to imagine any scenario where another product could serve its purpose any better. As for us, we are happy, happy campers. :)

THE monitor I recommend for moms and dads.

Reviewed in Canada on 9 March 2020

Verified Purchase

Used this monitor through 2 under 2, with two cameras in each room. Battery life was good, screen resolution was good and I could talk through it if I needed to. What's better is that it does not go through wifi so it won't go in and out (we had the Nest cam and holy crap it was a headache and waste of time). It also tells you the temperature of the room, which was very important to me one summer when we didn't have AC installed yet.

Beats VAVA monitor. Audio is so much better on the DXR-8!

Reviewed in Canada on 5 August 2020

Verified Purchase

These two monitor were in our budget, so we bought them both to try out. The volume is nearly twice as loud on the Infant Optics. When it comes to monitoring a baby and NOT as a security camera, audio is much more important than video. We need to be alerted when our baby cries, and no one looks at the screen 24-7 but we do LISTEN to our baby 24-7. If we have the TV on, we would barely hear our baby scream on the VAVA unless the monitor was right next to us. The Infant Optics wins by a far margin on this one.

Another reason why I would choose the DXR-8 over the VAVA is because of signal connection. Using both side by side, we haven’t had any dropouts on the DXR-8, but we have had nights where the VAVA would ‘lose signal’ for no reason.

We don’t need a big screen to watch over our child. This isn’t to serve as an 9” iPad where we watch 4K movies or play mobile games on. We just need to make sure our baby is OK, and the DXR-8 does just the job in a nice little package.

This one is a keeper!

Worth The Investment

We absolutely love this camera and monitor. Controls are simple to use, picture and sound is great. Able to move camera to many angles. We are looking forward to purchasing a second camera to use when we have our next child and will use the scan feature to be able to watch both together. Highly Recommend!

Beware if buying from Canada!

Reviewed in Canada on 9 July 2017

Verified Purchase

The monitor itself came quickly and on time, was easy to set up and works very well. The range is excellent and that was one of the main reasons we decided on this monitor. The only issue I would like to flag is that if you buy this in Canada, the warranty is not done by Infant Optics, even though you register it with them. I contacted them after the screen went faulty and was told to send it back to them, this was after sending them the receipt which clearly stated I was a customer based in Canada, but once it got to organising the new unit to be sent I was told they can not under any circumstances ship Internationally........ Apparently it does state this in the Warranty, so that is my fault for not reading all of that but to be honest I normally check how long the Warranty is for and that's it..

I'm unsure what the repair and return process is for Canada, it might work through a 3rd party but just wanted you to beware that it is not with Infant Optics and therefore you might want to factor this into your buying decision. I'm now 2 weeks into this and been without the monitor for this period of time which is not good, I'm now at the point of having a new one shipped to a friend who will then ship this on to me.

To conclude though, we were impressed with this product until this point, the screen has broken within 10 months and the hassle of getting exchanged means I would struggle to recommend this product anymore.
