Owlet Dream Sight

Beyond Pleased
Wonderful product and a great improvement from Owlet. This product is direct evidence that they have listened to consumer feedback. Only negative I have is not actually about this product. Our Owlet Cam 2 failed after only 18 months. I was hesitant to purchase another Owlet camera and was going to replace it with other brand, but they came out with this Dream Sight camera in the nick of time. Much better price point for a superior product. Hard to beat that. Picture quality is wonderful, audio quality is almost too good, and my favorite part: the setup using Bluetooth instead of that horrible QR code system. It was smooth and quick and made me very happy. I’d had it with the Cam 2, but Owlet has done well here.

Does a decent job!
We bought 2 of these to help us discretely monitor my grandmother who has dementia. Have had them for about 2 weeks, and so far I can say they work decently well & she doesn’t seem to be bothered by them.PROS:+Easy to setup if you’re placing it on a surface & not up high (more install required up high).+Video quality & sound input are alright (you can adjust these a bit in the app).+The night vision feature is helpful so we & the caregivers can see if/when she’s wandering after bedtime.+2-way talk feature! We haven’t used this just yet to talk to my grandma, but we’ve used it to talk to the caregivers or each other easily when one of us is away from home.+Can check the app & view the footage anytime, anywhere.+Private & only people connected to your account/device can view the video.CONS:-Bluetooth pairing took a few tries. You have to make sure your phone & the cam are connected to the same WiFi.-Only 1 device & 1 account can pair to the cam. (HOWEVER—We found a way to work around this. We each installed the app on our phones, but we’re each logged into the same account. The newer Cam 2 version does allow for multiple devices/accounts, I believe).-2 way talk volume is SO QUIET & no way to adjust it. But I’m sure that’s because you wouldn’t want to scare an infant with a loud voice. Still would be nice to be able to adjust.-No audio/video recording feature. But again, the newer Cam 2 version I believe does have that option.Overall a good device & experience so far! May buy again if we need another.

Overpriced junk with clever marketing and negative review suppression on Amazon
My husband and I were excited about this product. However it is not reliable and cannot be trusted to keep an eye on your baby. Marketing it as such is dangerous and unethical.Pros:- Nightvision is excellent- Video quality is goodCons:- The app constantly freezes while you are observing your baby. You will think you are keeping an eye on your baby, but you’d be wrong.- The app constantly needs to be force closed and reopened to establish a connection to the camera- The camera constantly disconnects from wifi (not an issue with any other device in our home)- The camera needs to be occasionally reset and repaired- You can only use one login to view the feed. That means if you want your babysitter or whomever to be able to use the app, you have to share your login with them.- The app constantly displays a “Cam update available” that does nothing.- Very expensive for a wifi camera- Notifications only work when the app is already open, rendering it useless- Does not come with a mount that you can use on a crib, you’ll have to buy this separately.We feel like suckers for buying this product. My husband attempted to review on amazon and was not allowed because he was not a verified purchaser. I wonder how many more people who put this on their registry that are unhappy with this are unable to leave a review. Gigantic waste of money, on an unreliable piece of junk. Our Gen 1 google nest cam that was 1/2 of the price 8 years ago, works much better, is reliable, and has all the functionality missing from the Owlet. You also get video history with the nest and you don’t with the Owlet. Do not buy this, you will regret it.

Love this camera!
I love that the monitor is your phone, so easy to use, and one less thing to carry around and remember to charge! The app is very useful, and I love that you can turn the sound on in the background, so that you can use your phone for other things while still listening for baby. You can even make and receive phone calls, and hear baby, which is very reassuring. Installation was easy, and came with all that was needed. The night vision in the camera is perfect, and I love that you can zoom in if needed! Great value for the price!

Worth it if you can get it on sale? Quality of the image and sound is nice with maybe a 1s delay. It comes in a nice packaging with everything you need to secure it and the cord to a wall. The major draw back is the cam sporadically goes offline and I have to factory reset it to get it to sync again. Idk if the cam is resetting after updates and doing that? It’s def annoying and if you only notice you have to sync again after putting baby down welp… guess you have no cam for the night.

This is my dads account who bought me the camera – this is my review:First the quality of the video is poor but that’s the least of the issues with this product.The main reason for purchasing a baby camera is to ensure that you have continual monitoring of your baby. This camera randomly disconnects from the network OR just loses sound making it very VERY dangerous for parents. I’ve updated the firmware, update the app, used multiple devices as the receiver, even purchased a Bell Fibe Pod to extend my wireless signal. All in vain.Honestly I’m disgusted with this product and company brand. Looking on the net now that we have issues I can see how many people have this issue and I can validate that this is indeed going to happen for you as well.I purchase a lot of smart devices and sure they have their issues but not like this – this device has 1 job and it can’t do that. Get the Nanit – my friend has it and it works great.I will be trying to get in contact with Owlet customer service because they have a terrible warranty and Amazon does not let you return it after 60 days – which is absurd when you normally purchase these baby items in advance.Don’t buy this
