Hubble Application
By downloading the Hubble app from the Motorola website to your mobile/tablet/PC, you can be connected in real-time in HD quality (720p) with the camera in the baby's room from anywhere outside the house (requires Wi-Fi or 3G/4G connection) and continuously monitor your baby, while you can record at any moment you wish with the press of a button through the app.

Positives:
Nice design
Good night image in complete darkness
Long cable
Mobile app
Negatives:
Battery, lasts barely an hour without power, so you’re constantly wandering around with the cable.
Sound is poor
It freezes (turns off by itself and you have to keep an eye on it to turn it back on)
The app also freezes and may not work
Range, doesn’t cover the whole house and especially if I close the door of the room I’m in, it loses the signal.
I've been using it for 2-3 weeks, enough for the following observations:
- Average image quality, especially compared to next-generation stand-alone IP cameras. I would have liked it to be much wider (don't buy it for twins!). It passes for baby monitor standards but nothing impressive.
- Interesting features (Two-way talk, lullaby playback, etc.)
- Very poor battery life, essentially a one-way street for keeping the unit permanently plugged in.
- Marginal range for a (flat!) 150 sq.m. house; from the kitchen to the bedroom, I experienced connection losses and had to get a WiFi Extender.
- Limited unit capabilities (small screen, 1 zoom option without movement) but the Smartphone App (Motorola Hubble) is very good.
Conclusion:
If simultaneous use of the Smartphone App for remote monitoring from anywhere AND a stationary unit at home without using the Internet (e.g., for those less familiar with technology) is required, it may be the only option at its price and definitely gets the job done.
Personally, however, I might regret not getting a better and wider IP Camera that I could monitor locally on a Tablet or TV!
Very good night camera. You can see the baby even in the dark.
The "octopus" support system is very good too. Practically, you can mount it anywhere you want.
The app for internet connection is so-so.
The camera works only when plugged in.
On the monitor's battery, Motorola scored an own goal. It lasts about an hour, so practically it needs to be constantly plugged in.
Occasionally, it freezes and the alarm goes off or the screen doesn't turn on. You just need to remove the batteries and put them back in. It unfreezes.
I would buy it again anyway. It makes me feel safe.
It has very good image capture but falls short in sound; it is not loud enough to hear the very faint sound unless there is complete silence, and the battery does not last more than half an hour. Although they replaced it from the store, it still couldn't hold up, resulting in me having it constantly plugged in to charge.
