Pros and cons
Amazon
Pros
- A parent unit comes in the box, so the feed is watched on a screen of its own rather than on a phone.
- Range of 427 m ranks 3 of 16 on the site, putting Amazon ahead of most of the monitors listed.
- Recordings are kept on local storage, so clips stay on the camera and the parent unit instead of going to a service.
Cons
- Entry price of €90.95 ranks 10 of 25 brands, so it is not the cheapest monitor on the shelf.
- Amazon lists a video monitor where Arenti is a smart unit, so anyone wanting a phone-led setup should look at the smart options.
- With an account not required and clips kept on local storage, viewing stays on the parent unit rather than following the family to another device.
Chillax
Pros
- The ChillaxCare app plan costs €0 a month and no account is required, so there is nothing to renew or sign up for.
- It works without wifi and still covers 365.76 m, with a parent unit supplied so the camera feeds its own screen.
- Sleep analytics and local storage come as standard rather than as a paid add on, with the plan at €0 a month.
Cons
- Video resolution is 720p, the softer end of the picture quality on offer here, so shoppers buying on image quality should look wider before choosing.
- It sells in US and CA, so parents outside those markets should check shipping and warranty cover with Hubble Connected or Arenti instead.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre, with a phone line not among the listed options, so a parent wanting voice support is pushed to chat or email.
Who each suits
Amazon
Who it suits
- Parents who want a 2k picture without routing the feed through their own wifi.
- Parents who prefer to buy outright, since the monthly plan cost is €0.
- Households that want the parent unit in the box and clips kept on local storage.
Who should look elsewhere
- Parents after a smart monitor with the app side that Amazon's video unit does not carry.
- Parents who want a smart monitor rather than a video one, where Arenti is the closer fit.
Chillax
Who it suits
- Parents on patchy home wifi, since a wifi connection is not required.
- Buyers who want sleep analytics and local storage without a monthly charge, with the app plan at €0 a month.
- Shoppers in US and CA looking for a smart monitor with a parent unit, from a company based in the United States.
Who should look elsewhere
- Picture quality buyers, who should weigh Arenti, since Chillax lists 720p.
- Shoppers outside US and CA, who will find wider availability with Hubble Connected or Arenti.
- Tight budgets, since Hubble Connected starts at £24.99 against €64.99 for Chillax.

Questions about each
Amazon
How much does Amazon's baby monitor cost?+
The entry price is €90.95, and the monthly plan cost is €0, so nothing is added each month. Amazon ranks 10 of 25 brands on that entry price, so it sits behind the cheapest entries in that field.
Is there anything to pay after I buy it?+
No recurring charge sits behind the purchase. The monthly plan cost is €0, so €90.95 is the full amount to weigh at renewal as well as at the start, and no paid tier changes what the monitor does.
Chillax
How much does a Chillax baby monitor cost to start with?+
Entry hardware is listed at €64.99. That is the figure to weigh against Arenti at $100 and Hubble Connected at £24.99. The outlay sits with the purchase rather than recurring each month, so the equipment price is the number that decides the comparison.
Is there a monthly subscription for the Chillax app?+
The ChillaxCare app plan costs €0 a month, and no account is required to use the monitor. There is no recurring charge to plan around, which makes Chillax easy to budget against brands that bill monthly for app features. Sleep analytics and local storage sit inside that plan cost.
