How is the sound on the monitor? Also does it drain your phone battery when in use?

The sound is pitch perfect. But you have to have the pro version. Me personally, I dont keep the app open all day on my phone so I really cant answer that part of your question.

The sound is great on the monitor. It's really efficient and a strong signal. I really like this monitor. Just like any ongoing app on your phone it will drain your battery but not any more than normal. What i do is use my tablet with the app running while it's plugged in. But if you're just having it on while baby sleeps it won't drain your battery much. It depends on your phone too but I've never had any issues.

Yes. This is the one frustrating thing about this monitor. I would put it on vibrate and then set it on a washcloth on my night stand so it wasn't as loud. It helped absorb the sound a bit and kept it from vibrating obnoxiously off of the wood but you could still hear it. The Samsung Wireless Video Security Mnitoring System one allows you to turn off this feature. I have both and prefer this one for that reason Samsung Wireless Video Security Monitoring System (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Phone service sound or music (through headphones)?Phone is certainly adequate. I've never had a problem.I don't use my phone as a music server so I couldn't give to a definitive answer.

It is portable, but it only has about an 8 hr battery life on standby. Works well though with no interference from our other 2 monitors. Well worth the money.

Ive usef mine a few times so far in the shower and it sounds great for what I was expecting. Way better than the speaker on my phone.I was definitely impressed by it.

I guess it depends on the intent. I use this monitor for work and listen to sports radio. The sound is plenty loud enough and clean. If you're watching movies then yea, it's not going to be the best but for a monitor they do the job just fine. If your watching YouTube or just wanting sound, not bad IMO.

It has an small headphone jack on the back of the monitor. The size jack found on a cell phone. It does mute the speakers when I plug a iPhone earbud into it. However I cannot hear sound through the earbuds when plugged into the jack.

You can hear the baby as well as see him/her. I have tried this and another monitor from this company and was very dissatisfied. I currently use the Motorola video monitor made for babies r us and aside from a battery charging problem I love it. The main reason I love it is you can move the camera around to see the baby(especially when they start moving around the crib) from the monitor. Good luck!

We use this as a second monitor when we are away from home and haven't had any problems with it. When we are at my parents and I put my kids down for a nap upstairs, I can hear fine without interference.

The speaker is fine..not great but I have a surround sound speaker system with my computer so the monitor speakers are not a factor for me. Many internal speakers on monitors are similar.

I must say since I dont use the speaker system I never thought about how they or should say it performs, it has only one and is located on right side rear of monitor. as far as battery life I'm not into gaming and dont use it for long periods of time and have not had any problems as i put it on charger when i am finished using it. Sorry for my over sight. Hope it helps.

Hi there. We sort of like the monitor, don't love it. The sound is annoying. There are 6 levels, but no matter which setting you choose, it does this thing where it's one level when you set it, but then it lowers. Whenever there's sound in the room, it goes back up to where you originally set it. In other words, it tries to think for you? You put it at one setting, but then it lowers. It's frustrating. If I want the sound on HIGH, then leave it there, don't decide FOR ME that I really want it lower.That said, the sound itself is just fine. LOL. If baby cries, you'll hear it!

It's a decent volume! I wouldn't recommend having any other noise on like a T.V. or music playing but with the actual camera itself that you put on a mantle, in my opinion I think it's a great volume for the baby to your voice. On the hand held device, the monitor itself, it's about the same volume. We have tested from room to room and the volume hasn't wavered. Hope I answered your question!

With my son we had a summer monitor and it did have a small amount of continuous static. We bought the Levana monitor with my daughter. We Love this monitor. Completely silent background noise. I can even hear my daughter breathing if I turn it up. Another impressive feature to this monitor is the battery life. We can leave it on 2 or 3 days before having to charge it. I highly recommend this monitor.

I own it. The screen is wonderfully crisp and it runs smoothly, but the sound is awful. Weak speakers, and headphones sound muffled.

The audio is better than the last flat screen I owned and no longer need external speakers, I do not hear well. Hope this helped.
