 Great Value for a Video MonitorOct 05, 2011
By J. Wilcox
When my Sony Baby Call monitor started buzzing frequently and randomly shutting off I started shopping for a new monitor. I spotted the Motorola MBP20 and have been using it for about a week.
PROS:
Design - Nice visual design.
Size - About the size of an iPhone, small and convenient.
Weight - Light and easy to carry.
Carrying Convenience - The belt clip can be rotated to function as a kick stand and is also removable.
Screen - Small but gives a clear and crisp image, can be turned on or off so it doesn't glare brightly at night. The audio still works even when the video is off.
Menu - Easy to navigate and change settings.
Sound - The sound is clear and there is no static. I like that it is encrypted and secure.
Battery - I use the monitor for about 7 hours total during the day and the battery is only drained about half way. I don't leave the video display on though. (Tip: On the battery itself is the suggestion to charge the battery at least 16 hours before using.)
Price - I got this for 80. I consider that a great value.
CONS:
Night Vision - Image is ok, details are lost the farther you put the camera from the target area. I have two kids that share a room and I initially wanted to try to get a view of the whole room. The image is easy to see in the day but the night vision infrared bulbs only reach so far. As a result I had to put the camera closer to just one crib.
Volume - The highest volume is about the same as noises in real life. I list this as a con because my old monitor's volume goes much higher. It was easier to wake up to at night.
Voice Activation - This monitor has a feature that turns on the microphone when a certain noise level is reached. When the noise level is below that threshold the mic is off. There is no way to turn this feature off or adjust the sensitivity. I noticed the closer the camera is to the baby the higher the sensitivity and the more noises will come through on the monitor. (Tip: if you push the video on/off button you can activate the microphone and listen in on the kids.)
Visual Sound Alert - My old monitor had lights that would flicker on when the monitor detected sound and the louder the sound the more lights would come on. This monitor does not have that feature and I regret that. It does however have an alert you can activate that will sound when the monitor is muted and detects noise.
BOTTOM LINE:
I would recommend this monitor. I mainly use it to hear when my 6 month old wakes at night and when she and my 2 year old son wake in the morning. It does the job for me and it's fun to see my baby on the video.

 Beware of the reviews they are NOT for the 1.5 inch modelMar 18, 2012
By Joe James
I bought the 1.5 inch model after all the glowing reviews but it is TERRIBLE. The video is choppy with a delay and the night vision does NOT work. The temperature reading is fine and audio is fine. Do NOT order the 1.5 inch model thinking it is a 4 star baby monitor. THIS IS VERY MISLEADING AMAZON! You should seperate the 3 different models with 3 different reviews as I am sure the larger screen model is the one getting all the 4 star reviews.

For the price, very good.Sep 17, 2011
By H. Hong
I love the form factor and the price I got this. Somehow, Amazon was offering this for $79 when it is normally $120, so I snapped it up. So for $79, you get a pretty decent and compact video monitor.
Unfortunately, being the base model, you do miss out on some features.
- The so-called sound meter is NOT a sound meter at all. The description is completely wrong. You basically get a audible and visual message when there are noises that exceed a preset fixed loudness, and this alert is ONLY active when the receiver unit is muted.
- There is no way to turn the LCD off. It's very bright even at the lowest setting so in a dark room, it lights up the night.
I think if I paid the full $120 for this, I would be disappointed, but at $79, it's a bargain!

Decent quality but NOT expandableSep 17, 2011
By Jamieson Olsen
Pros: Very good build quality. DECT is interference-free. Sensitive microphone. IR night vision is OK. LCD can be turned off for audio only. Good battery life when the screen is turned off.
Cons: Washed out low contrast video. Battery life is ~2 hours with the screen on. Quiet sounds below some fixed threshold are not transmitted. NOT expandable -- cannot add extra cameras.
Still it is better than the noisy and unreliable 900MHz analog and 2.4GHz Graco units we've had in the past. We got this for $79.

 Was great, till we turned off the lightsFeb 25, 2012
By Baby2 on da way
This monitor has a lot of options that out summer monitor doesn't, and we were excited about the price. Then we set it up
In our toddlers room and turned off the lights. The camera was literally pointed straight at her bed and I couldn't even see she was in it. Tried the adjust the brightness but thw picture just got worse. Returned it the next day. Still looking for an additional monitor for baby two.
