Overview
Not a WiFi camera with a phone app, this Firskids monitor links its camera to a dedicated handheld screen over a private radio signal. The camera pans, tilts and zooms on command from the parent unit, which runs on a rechargeable battery.
Privacy and control are what it offers: no internet connection, and a camera you can steer around the nursery from the couch. Viewing is limited to the handheld screen, so there is no checking in from work on a phone.
Who it's for
New parents worried about hacked cameras get a closed radio link and a screen that lasts through the night. Families who travel for work, or who want clips and alerts on a phone, need an app based camera instead.
Pros and cons
- No WiFi or account needed
- Remote pan, tilt and zoom
- Long parent unit battery life
- Audio only ECO mode with cry alert
- Camera needs constant wall power
- No phone app viewing
- Video resolution not listed
- Zoom tops out at 2X
Performance notes
Picture and sound travel over a frequency hopping radio link, so signal strength depends on walls and distance in the house rather than internet speed. ECO mode turns the screen off until crying is detected, which is how the battery stretches further.

Frequently asked questions
Can I watch the Firskids FK5363 on my phone?
No. It uses a 2.4GHz FHSS link to its own monitor screen with no WiFi, so there is no app viewing.
Does the Firskids FK5363 camera run on batteries?
No. The baby cam needs to be plugged in at all times. Only the parent monitor has a rechargeable battery.
What does ECO mode do on the Firskids FK5363?
ECO mode is audio only. The screen stays off until the baby cries, then lights up with a red flash.
