Buying advice: baby monitors

  1. Pick local if you want privacy and reliability inside the home. Pick Wi-Fi if you want to watch from your phone away from home or share access with a partner or caregiver.
  2. Local monitors quote open-air range. Brick walls, floors and appliances cut that sharply, so allow a big margin in larger homes.
  3. A 5-inch screen is easier to read at a glance. Good infrared night vision matters more than daytime resolution because most viewing happens in the dark.
  4. Some Wi-Fi monitors put history, alerts or sleep analytics behind a monthly fee. Check what works without paying.
  5. For Wi-Fi models, use a strong unique password and turn on two-factor sign-in where it is offered. Keep firmware updated.

Why does my baby monitor's night vision look grainy or dim?

Grainy or dim night vision is usually the camera's infrared LEDs struggling to light a room that's too large, or a lens partially obstructed by dust or a mount bracket casting a shadow. It can also happen if the camera's IR cut filter hasn't switched properly, leaving the sensor trying to process near-total darkness as if it were a normal low-light scene.

Why does the picture look normal during the day but goes black at night?

This points to the IR LEDs not activating at all, rather than a general low-light problem. Check that nothing is blocking the small ring of LEDs around the lens, since even a thin layer of dust can be enough to prevent the switch from daytime to night mode from working properly.
