Infant Optics DXR-8 PRO Add-on Camera (Not Compatible with DXR-8), White

I’ve even had the Nanit… and this is by far my favorite camera. I love how easy it is to use and you can add on additional cameras for multiple babies.

Bought this to add to our set for baby’s bassinet and room. Pairs in seconds and works perfectly!

We love this camera for our baby! We’ve been using it daily since she was born in the winter and have not had any issues! Pros: - does not need WiFi so we don’t worry about anyone hacking us - easy to add a second camera - camera filters out ambient noise very well (baby’s sound machine) - picture quality is great - The monitor battery life is also quite good, lasts about 3 hours when left continuously on with brightest resolution. Con -Not sure if it’s just this camera or all cameras, but it is difficult to see the baby in her play yard with night vision when the camera is pointed at the side of the play yard. We haven’t mounted the camera so we have been placing it on furniture and angling it down into the crib or pointing it at the side. - wish this had a more standard power plug like to match iPhone but it is handy that the plug is a circle so no need to flip it over and try to make it fit like a puzzle piece - the camera has a small green light near the lens when it is powered on that can easily stimulate and distract baby. We put some dark tape over it to cover it to help make the room as dark as possible. Finally thoughts: - Would recommend getting the wide angle lens separately for this camera to improve your view. - We also purchased extra power cords for both sides of our bed and living room so this can stay powered up at all times.

The display unit can support 4 cameras. Adding the new camera was really straight forward. Push the sync button on the bottom of the new camera and tell the display unit to sync with the new camera. Easy.

With my first child, we used the regular model. This time around with my second, we switched to the pro. The quality is so much better, I was amazed. The picture is much more clear, the screen is nice and wide, and it was very easy to pair both cameras. Absolutely would recommend.

We had one camera set up for our first child. When we moved her to another room we still wanted to be able to keep an eye on her as she transitioned to a toddler bed. The only thing that would make having two cameras perfect is if it could spit screen. However, going between the two rooms is very easy with just one of the main buttons. I can even have it set up to switch between the two rooms on it’s own. I also love how depending on what room it is viewing, the talk feature will only talk to that room without disrupting the other. I feel like the temperature reading is off on the add-on camera, but that is pretty minor to what it can do without having to buy multiple monitors.

This is a great product. We purchased this for our second child due in January and we should have gotten the entire system when we had our first child 2.5 years ago. This would have made our life so much stress free. The picture quality is great. The battery life is okay but it charges pretty fast if the batter is low. The charging cable makes it easy to charge. We definitely would recommend this product to new parents or parents looking for a better monitor.

Picture quality is great!!

This is a gift so I will not be the one using it.

Pros-great picture (unless you zoom in, then it becomes grainy), reads temp in room accurately, good sound output when talking through camera. Overall happy with purchase. Cons-doesn’t come with wide angle lens (trust me, you need it-it provides a WAY better view and you don’t have to position the camera perfectly to see your baby) - you can buy it separately but shouldn’t have to. Can pair multiple cameras with one monitor (the monitors battery life isn’t stellar but I don’t need it to be right now) but cannot pair a camera to multiple monitors and it’d be nice to have one up and downstairs since my hands are usually full of tiny humans and their belongings when I come downstairs or I simply forget it.
