After lots of comparison research I've found out that most people think the zoom is not really worth it (it's not a true zoom and therefore kind of crappy quality) but the panning and tilting is definitely worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/motorola-video-monitor-size-worth-the-extra#post-206871 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 16:31:40 +0000 sandy 206871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the large screen and I love it. I don't use the pan and zoom a ton but I assume I will when she is older. I love that I can see the monitor from a ways away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/motorola-video-monitor-size-worth-the-extra#post-206810 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 15:36:12 +0000 Jenn23 206810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just received our 2.8 and it seems like it will be big enough for us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/motorola-video-monitor-size-worth-the-extra#post-206781 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 15:11:35 +0000 Mrs. Bee 206781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have the bigger screen and the smaller screen. the panning that is on the bigger screen is soooooo worth it. actually we use the big screen for charlie instead of olive! the monitor becomes more useful for mischievous toddlers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/motorola-video-monitor-size-worth-the-extra#post-206761 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 14:53:39 +0000 sorrycharlie 206761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>that's the one we're getting!

I can see my LO and if I need more detail for whatever reason I tiptoe to her room.<br /> The small one I got on Woot! for under $75! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/motorola-video-monitor-size-worth-the-extra#post-206692 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 14:01:41 +0000 ktgee04 206692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been going back and forth on ordering the Motorola video monitor. I know from the reviews it's quite a bit better (and apparently lasts longer) than most any other monitor on the market. The 3.5" screen is significantly more expensive over the 2.8" screen. Those of you who have ordered/owned one, is the addtl screen size worth the extra $$? Or does the 2.8" do the trick? My frugile side and the side of me that wants to get something that will truly benefit us is currently at war!</p> <p>Thanks in advance! : ) </p>
