Packaging and unboxing | Proscenic BM300 review
The packaging in which it is presented is really minimal and well made. Totally white with blue and black lettering. Inside the package we find the camera, the monitor, a cable Micro-USB for camera power and a USB-C cable for the monitor. We also find two power supplies from 5V, a bracket and a set of screws. The endowment is then completed by all the manuals for the user obviously also in Italian language.

First impressions and user experience | Proscenic BM300 review
The product is really simple to use. For the first time installation you need to turn on the camera first and then the screen. The combination is really lightning fast and also quite stable. THE materials I am excellent albeit plastic, and the design is spot on too. The screen is equipped with a battery with a real autonomy of 8/10 hours but can still be powered via the supplied cable. There are several keys on the screen from which you can access various functions.
First of all, the screen is compatible to work with up to four different cameras located around the house. From the arrows it is possible to move the camera in all directions and it is also possible to take advantage of the sensor present temperature in the camera. From the screen it is then possible to enable an alarm that will sound if the sensor detects a temperature that is too low or too high. Extremely useful slot SD present both on the screen and on the camera; from the settings it is possible to decide on which device to register and from the interface you can also view the esteem Of minutes that it is possible to record in memory based on the size of the inserted SD.
Excellent quality of screen and recording, excellent balance of brightness. Being also equipped with infrared, the yield even in total darkness is really excellent. I particularly appreciated the amount of additional features that make this product really suitable for monitoring children and/or pets. Available, for example, 8 preset di ninna nanna which can be played remotely at different volumes. Also available is the option to activate alarms e timer (the latter can be automatically cycled over time or made unique). The only flaw found, which however can be corrected during construction, is the impossibility of punctually managing the timer and alarm clock values. You have to settle for preset values which therefore cannot be customized. Last, but not least, the possibility of communicating in both directions with good quality built-in microphones. The audio is quite clear even in conditions of sustained noise.
Conclusions and price | Proscenic BM300 review
If in the past it could have been worthwhile to adapt tools born for other purposes to this purpose, today we are lucky enough to be able to count on products like this at quite modest prices. The price of this product is just under €150, even if it often benefits from substantial discounts that bring the price down to around 100€. During the tests it has always performed well, boasting exclusive functions that make it truly comfortable in many use cases. So we just have to recommend this Proscenic BM300 to all those people who are looking for a product that is not extremely expensive but that can certainly have its say in terms of comfort e safety.
