Verdict

Pros & cons

Das eufy Babyphone E21 ist ein Hybrid aus Video-Babyphone mit 5-Zoll-Monitor und App und liefert ein sehr scharfes 4K-Bild, auch nachts. Die Funkverbindung läuft per WLAN-Schalter ganz ohne Internet und warnt bei schwachem Signal. Der Haken: Der VOX-Modus meldet Weinen verzögert, und in Altbauten über mehrere Etagen reißt der Funk ab. Für dich passt es, wenn du dein Kind vor allem sehen willst.

Pros

  • Sehr scharfes 4K-Bild, Nachtsicht fast so klar wie am Tag
  • WLAN-Schalter trennt Kamera von Internet und Cloud, Monitor läuft weiter
  • Verbindungswarnung am Monitor bei schwachem Signal
  • Funk im Haus rund 53 m durch acht Wände
  • Kamera schwenkt 330° und neigt 60°, zweite Kamera koppelbar
  • Niedrige Strahlung: 0,85 V/m knapp 1 m vor der Kamera

Cons

  • VOX-Modus meldet Weinen oft erst nach 10 bis 30 Sekunden
  • Funklöcher in Altbauten und über mehrere Etagen
  • Monitor zeigt nur 720p und hält mit Dauerbild knapp 9 h
  • Monitor geht bei leerem Akku ohne Warnton aus
  • Monitor schaltet sich auf der Ladestation ungewollt ein

Die Owlet Dream Sock ist eine Sensor-Socke ohne Ton und Bild, die Puls und Sauerstoff verlässlich misst und über die Basisstation am Bett warnt. Sie passt zu Eltern eines gesunden Säuglings, der im Elternschlafzimmer schläft. Der Haken ist die Funkstrecke, die oft im Nachbarzimmer abreißt. Dazu kommen eine zähe Einrichtung und ein Alarmton, den du nicht leiser stellen kannst.

Pros

  • Puls und Sauerstoff decken sich mit Werten von Klinikgeräten und Pulsoximeter
  • EU-Zulassung als Medizinprodukt für die Hinweise zu Puls und Sauerstoff
  • Rote Fehlalarme selten, mehrere Familien hatten über Monate keinen
  • Sensorakku hält bis zu 16 h, 20 min Laden reichen für 8 h
  • Basis warnt bei WLAN-Ausfall weiter per Bluetooth
  • Alle Gesundheitsalarme und der Verlauf funktionieren ohne Abo

Cons

  • Verbindung zur Basis reißt oft im Nachbarzimmer oder grundlos ab
  • Alarmton weder leiser stellbar noch per Handy quittierbar
  • Einrichtung nur mit 2,4-GHz-WLAN, häufig umständlich
  • In der Schweiz wegen Regionsprüfung nicht einrichtbar
  • Stoffsocken trennen sich teils nach einigen Wochen auf
