Infant Optics Standalone Monitor for DXR-8 PRO, NO Battery Included

Such a great camera. I was bummed when my screen stopped working. Got this replacement when I contacted infant optics customer service. Worked as expected and was thankful to have good customer service.

Excellent customer service. The battery on my monitor quit working after almost a year of use. Emma was quick to respond & able to get a resolution by sending a new battery. Highly recommend infant optics!

1. First Impressions After our kids accidentally broke the original DXR-8 monitor, we were worried we’d need to buy a whole new system. Luckily, this standalone replacement was available—and it worked perfectly right out of the box. 2. Product Performance Pairing the new monitor with our existing Infant Optics cameras was quick and easy. We didn’t have to reset or reconfigure anything complicated. The connection is strong, the video quality is just as clear as before, and we’re back to monitoring both kids without any interruptions. Battery life is solid, and all the familiar controls work just as expected. 3. Pros Instantly compatible with existing DXR-8 cameras Saves money by not replacing the full system Great video and audio quality Easy setup and reliable performance 4. Cons None so far. It’s working just like our original unit did. 5. Final Thoughts This monitor was the perfect solution for replacing a broken screen without the cost of a full new set. If you already have DXR-8 cameras, this is a no-brainer. It saved us time, money, and a lot of bedtime stress.

4 stars because you have to buy the battery separate

I want to first start by saying I purchased this infant optics camera and monitor back in 2023 and then again I purchased another monitor back in 2024. I’m rating it a one star because the quality of the camera is pretty good both in the daytime and at night time. But on the other hand, the monitor does not hold a charge for longer than an hour. So I’ve constantly had to keep it on the charger throughout the day. It also does not last throughout the night, so I have to sleep with it on the charger just to be sure that it doesn’t die when we’re sleeping. But when you keep it on the charger too long it overheats and it’s like I can’t win with this thing. Also as a few months ago, the buttons to move the camera in different directions have stopped working. On plenty of occasions the monitor just starts moving in every which direction on its own to the ceiling to the ground just everywhere to the point I’m not able to see my kids on the camera anymore. Even when I try and move the camera back to view my kids, I’m not able to gain control because the buttons work sometimes and then sometimes they don’t. I honestly believe the infant optics camera and monitor are too expensive to be having these problems and not being able to last longer than two years. I would not recommend buying this product.

Gladys was a lifesaver helping with the replacement of the monitor. The battery life was going on my first monitor and when i went to take the original battery out, the prongs snapped making the monitor unusable in less it was plugged into the wall which isn’t conducive for running around getting stuff done while your kids napping. Appreciate the quick turn around

We love this monitor. It works well and has great sound and has a great talking system to be able to talk with our kids if needed. It is very easy to use and set up. Also great customer service to send us a new one when ours malfunctioned.

Ours lasted about a year and now it won’t turn on. The light comes on when you plug it in and you can see the charging picture on screen but the power button doesn’t turn it on! We had to order a new one and these aren’t cheap 😩
