According to our baby monitor expert
With the Motorola MBP 944 Connect, you don't simply have a regular baby monitor at your disposal. This baby monitor has various functions to make things as easy as possible for you and your baby. You can choose whether you place the camera on a cabinet or attach it to the bed. With the app, you can play lullabies, switch on the star projection on the ceiling, or play an audio book. If your child is upset, you can use the two-way audio to reassure them. Via the app, it's also possible to see the sleeping activity of your little one. This way, you can see exactly how long your child has slept or how often they have been awake.

Unfortunately, this product is not a Motorola product. It is developed and sold by Binatone Electronics International LTD, a Hong Kong company that has leased the Motorola brand name and logo for this product. So don't expect Motorola quality.
You will notice that it is a Chinese product with a corresponding quality, among other things, from Chenglish. For example, "The firmware OTA upgrade is not available" suggests that the update is not available, while it means that the latest firmware is already installed.
For example, a more serious shortcoming is that the 'sleep activity' button, which should show a graph of when your baby has moved, only shows a black screen. And as said there is no firmware update available, so apparently they haven't even tried to get that working.
It is a real shame that the Hubble App contains rather intrusive advertising, in this case for a 'baby registry'. The app could also have been a bit clearer.
But the image is good, probably digital, so little reading of interference, and the range is fine: Two thick concrete floors indoors is no problem and at the neighbors of 2 houses further I had a good signal in front of the door.
Of course you don't talk back to your baby via this device, but it is useful to ask your partner in the baby's room.
The privacy is a bit iffy. If you use it via WiFi, everything goes through a Hubble server, so you never know what will happen to your image, sound and data, how well it is secured and whether there has been a data breach. Ultimately, it remains a Chinese company. That Hubble server is also the only way to record images for a monthly payment. In this way it is even possible to analyze the growth and development of your baby. I don't know if I'm trusting that data to a Chinese company...
All in all, it's a great product, but not a Motorola product. Downsides to reliability due to dubious trustworthiness in terms of privacy.

Only had 1 day at home: contrary to what the description states, this unit has no sound activation (so you can't switch on the screen or sound if you make a small noise!). That makes it unusable for us. Sent back. Set up with cradle for cot seems handy. Range, control of starry sky & light regularly faltered.

I expected more for this price. No VOX function which is the most important for me. With that, the screen will turn on when the baby makes a sound
