Owlet Cam 2 (Gen 2) Smart Baby Monitor – HD Video Camera with Night Vision, 4X Zoom & Wide-Angle View, Two-Way Talk, Sound & Motion Alerts, Temp & Humidity Sensor, Encrypted WiFi | White

Upgraded our old monitor to this and I'm so glad we did. I only wish we did it sooner! Very happy with the quality of picture and the phone connectivity via the app. The app includes sleep tracking and predictive wake windows which has been super helpful to keep my husband and I on the same page as we sleep train our 6 month old. Very very happy with the camera. The cry detection/movements/room temperature etc everything is fantastic. Setup was a breeze!

Love this!! Now, with that said I hated it the first week my baby was born because it’s harder than it looks to put on a tiny baby foot. Once I had a family member show me how to use it properly and my baby grew a little more, then it became the easiest thing to put on. I recommend putting a fitted sock over the foot monitor to help a little more. Also, it seemed like it didn’t like a sock and footed onesies because it would disrupt the signal. You might hate it right away if you are putting it on a newborn, but it does get easier to use as they grow and just takes some patience!

The camera constantly disconnects and stops working (almost every other hour or 40% of the time I try to use it)... Sometimes it stops working on my phone (and says the camera is disconnected from wifi) but my partners phone will show the video with no issue. Seems very finicky. There is also a noticable lag and it ONLY supports 2.4 GHz wifi. At this point most people have 5 GHz wifi so you will run into issues connecting this to your wifi unless you know how to configure your network to 2.4 GHz. Also, the camera has the super bright blue light that illuminates the room and might degrade sleep quality. Lastly, at this price point, you can't even move the camera around remotely so it's lacking features that other cameras have.

This is a great tool for parents to keep an eye (and ear) on their precious ones. I highly recommend it. The way it calculates room temperature and humidity has come in VERY handy. There are notifications for cry detection that can be overwhelming because it picks up on EVERY sound, but those can be turned off.

This is a nice camera with great features. I purchased this so that my husband and I could see our child while we are at work through Wi-Fi. It was very easy to set up you just download the app and follow the instructions on your phone. The camera will tell you the humidity and room temperature in your room and if it’s a comfortable environment for your child, it also has playback, audio, and background noise which you can turn off it the settings. The camera quality is very nice. It also has night vision and based on your Wi-Fi connection the first image quality is usually great. Through the app you can choose to have notifications tell you when your child is crying or like loud noises , however, I chose not to opt for that because if your child tends to cry a lot the notifications can get quite annoying. One downside that I found to this camera is that you have to manually rotate the camera whereas my other baby monitor camera be rotated from the monitor itself. It would be nice if you could rotate the camera from your phone that should be a feature they consider adding in the future. Also I usually will watch my phone and my other baby monitor screen while I’m in the house and I have noticed that there is a bit of a lag in the video playback with the Owlet camera compared to my other baby monitor camera. I use this camera in conjunction with the Owlet Dream sock. Overall I think this was a great purchase and I would recommend it to any new parent

I gifted this to my daughter for her baby shower and then helped her set it up in the nursery. We had no problem setting it up and using the cord covers. They stuck to the wall with a little pressure and have had no problems with them falling off. It was very easy to install and gives the new parents peace of mind while baby sleeps. Compared to the price of other items similar to this device, I feel like it is a great value for the money! The video is clear and the app works well. I would recommend this to new parents and would gift again.

There is a special place in tech hell for devices like the Owlet Cam — products so needlessly complicated, that they transform a simple task into a full-blown existential crisis. All I wanted was to see my baby sleep. Instead, I spent 45 minutes crouched on the floor, cycling between the app, my router, and my increasingly fragile will to live. The camera refused to connect to 5GHz Wi-Fi — apparently, the standard frequency of modern civilization was a bridge too far. I even had to pull out my laptop, log into my Wi-Fi provider’s account, and manually split the network to 2.4GHz like I was performing open-heart surgery on my own internet. ?! What does 2.4GHz even mean?! And after all that? Nothing. Not a single frame. Just a blinking light and the faint sound of my own sanity evaporating. No new mom should have to moonlight as a network engineer while a “smart” baby monitor refuses to acknowledge her existence. The Owlet Cam is the dumbest baby monitor on the market. It doesn’t deliver peace of mind — it demands it as a sacrifice. Final verdict: It never connected. Not once. Save your money, your time, your sanity - buy the Nanit.

Power plug not compatible with Saudi standards. Requested a return 2 months ago and refund still pending.

Really poor connection. Not usable. Don't waste your money.

Part of pairing this camera to a network is to slowly move your phone back and forth displaying a QR code to the owlet as it attempts to scan it. This process takes several attempts and upwards of 60 minutes. Plan to move your phone back and forth perfectly straight and slow hundreds and hundreds of times. I made the mistake of bringing this on vacation. I’m on my forth day here and still haven’t been able to pair this absolute garbage camera to the new network. Why the devs chose to utilize a QR code instead of just regular Bluetooth is absolutely baffling. Worst piece of equipment I’ve ever had the displeasure of using.

Works well most of the time but does disconnect from wifi occasionally which is very frustrating as it doesn't always reconnect easily. Video and sound quality is very good though.

Most disappointing buy for my baby! 3-5 second lag in the video output and the features being offered are quite basic for the fact the video goes back to server for processing.
