Overview
The Motorola MBP845 is a wifi video baby monitor built around a 720p camera with a night color vision mode. The camera unit weighs 7.2 ounces, and it connects over wifi rather than a dedicated 900MHz link.
Motorola's MBP845 sits in the video-monitor segment where wifi replaces the older proprietary radio link, letting a parent check in from a phone app instead of a single bundled screen. It carries a 3.8 rating across 603 reviews, a middling score for the category that buyers should weigh alongside the app-dependent design before committing.
- 720p camera resolution
- Night color vision mode
- Wifi connectivity
- 7.2 ounce camera unit
Who it's for
Parents who want to check a nursery from a phone rather than carry a dedicated handheld screen will get the most from this monitor. Households with unreliable home wifi or those wanting a screen-only setup with no app step should look elsewhere.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 720p resolution gives a sharper picture than standard-definition monitors
- Night color vision instead of plain infrared
- Light 7.2 ounce camera unit
- Wifi dependency means performance varies with home network quality
- 3.8 rating trails many monitors in this category
Performance notes
Video comes through at 720p with a night color mode instead of the grainy black and white infrared common on cheaper monitors, so a dim nursery still renders with usable color detail. Because the link runs over wifi, picture quality and connection stability depend on router range and network load rather than a dedicated point to point radio.
