Rank #3 in Best Video Baby Monitor 2026: 10 Ranked, and Where the Numbers Slip
Boifun No WiFi Baby Monitor, 4" IPS Screen (Spec: 5")
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Boifun Baby Monitor sits third in this guide. It is a no-WiFi monitor: a camera linked over 2.4GHz FHSS wireless to a parent unit with a screen, night vision, two-way talk, temperature and sound alerts, 3x zoom, lullabies and a feeding reminder. The listing shows £47.99, a rating of 4.4 out of 5 from 6,261 ratings, and a star breakdown running from 6 entries at one star up to 70 at five.
The number worth checking on this sheet is the screen. The product title promises a "4-inch Crystal Clear IPS Screen"; the specification table on the very same listing gives Screen Size as "5 Inches". Two figures, both published by Boifun, and nothing on the page says which one you get. The zoom has the same problem in miniature: the table lists "Optical Zoom: 3 x" and then, two lines later, "Zoom Type: Digital Zoom". Read the table against the headline before paying for the bigger number. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing for this monitor; we have not tested it ourselves, and every specification quoted here is one the listing states.
How those 6,261 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.4 stars.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Brillant camera needed a new one for my toddler and baby. Can split screen which is what we needed and didnt want a WiFi camera. Great price to.”
Verified purchase“Great product, great value, great experience 👏🏻Screen and the quality of the view are more then enough, night vision also great. Sound is great, easy to use. Battery could be bigger but in general it's enough for a few hours. Only issue is that the camera itself has to be always connected to the plug to work.I give it a 5 star”

Questions people ask
Does the Boifun monitor need WiFi?
No. The listing gives its network connectivity as "Wireless, No WiFi" and the wireless technology as 2.4GHz FHSS, so the camera talks to the parent unit directly rather than through a router.
Is the screen 4 inches or 5 inches?
Both figures appear on the same listing. The title says "4-inch Crystal Clear IPS Screen" while the specification table records Screen Size as "5 Inches". The listing does not say which measurement is the correct one.
How far does the signal reach?
Boifun claims a stable signal coverage of 300 metres over its encrypted 2.4GHz FHSS wireless connection.
Does the camera run on batteries?
The Power source field reads "Baby Camera-Corded Electric | Baby Monitor-Battery Powered", so the camera needs the plug and it is the parent unit that runs on battery.
What does the night vision do?
The listing describes 940nm invisible infrared light for night viewing, and says the blue working indicator light can be turned off in the settings.
What does it cost and how is it rated?
The listing shows £47.99 and a rating of 4.4 out of 5 from 6,261 ratings.
