Pros and cons
Arenti
Pros
- Wifi is not required, so the camera keeps working in rooms where the router signal is weak
- A parent unit is included, so you get a screen in the nursery and not only an app
- Local storage and video encryption are both part of the setup, so recordings can sit on the unit
Cons
- An account is required, so setup adds a signup before the app view is usable
- Breathing monitoring is none, so parents after movement or breathing alerts need a monitor that tracks it
- The Arenti camera and screen set costs $100 at purchase, above iBaby's $65.95 in the same currency
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
Arenti
Who it suits
- Parents who want a screen in the nursery and phone access away from it, since a parent unit is included
- Families with patchy wifi, because the Arenti monitor does not require wifi to work
- Parents who would rather not pay monthly, since the cloud storage plan costs $0
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers on a smaller budget: Hubble Connected lists £24.99 and Chillax Technology lists €34.99, so either asks less at purchase
- Parents who want breathing alerts: Arenti's breathing monitoring is none, so a monitor that tracks breathing suits them better
- Shoppers ordering from outside US, CA and PR, where the shipping policy does not stretch
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
Arenti
How much does the Arenti baby monitor cost to buy?+
The Arenti camera and screen set costs $100 at the entry point, and that covers the hardware itself. Nothing else is due at checkout for the monitor. For comparison, iBaby lists $65.95 for its starting model in the same currency, so Arenti sits higher at purchase.
Is there a monthly subscription or renewal with Arenti?+
There is no recurring charge to plan around. The Arenti cloud storage plan costs $0 a month, which means the running cost is free rather than a subscription line on a statement. Local storage is also supported, so clips can be kept on the unit without any cloud plan.
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.
