Samsung SEW-3037 vs. Motorola MBP36,
I have been using a Motorola MBP36 for almost 1 year (purchased on December 2011), and it died on me last month. I have to say MBP36 is quite decent unit until it is broken. Motorola’s customer service is absolutely horrible, and they will replace your broken unit with another broken unit. I finally give up with all the hassle and decided to look for another baby monitor. I came up across that Samsung recently released new baby monitors, so I tried SEW-3036, but without pan and tilt, it was no use to me.
Between SEW-3036 and SEW-3037, the price different is $50 and that’s the price for pan and tilt function with night light. The parent unit of SEW-3036 and SEW-3037 have very similar design, button layout, and function. In SEW-3037’s product description, it advertised as 900 foot coverage when 3036 has 800 foot coverage. But to me, it was pretty much same.
Let’s compare between SEW-3037 and MBP36 here:
Resolution: SEW-3037 < MBP36
With level 5 brightness setting, MBP36 looks more colorful than SEW-3037. SEW-3037 is clam and darker display. If you will constantly check the monitor, SEW-3037 will be better because MBP36 is too bright and color smudges when you stare it for long time.
Interface: SEW-3037 > MBP36
Button layout of 3037 is way much better than MBP36 because when you control the baby camera, MBP36 is giving you a hard time since navigation control is located in the left side as vertical line. I always confused with up and down (top two buttons) and right and left (bottom two buttons). On the other hand, 3037’s navigation control is round shape which is pretty common for controlling pan and tilt camera and easy to control. Clearly, for controlling the camera unit, 3037 is the winner.
Night Vision: SEW-3037 > MBP36
Because of calm and invisible IR display, 3037 looks better than MBP36 in the night time.
Sound: SEW-3037 > MBP36
The accuracy of sound level is identical between 3037 and MBP36, but 3037 has VOX feature which I really like. I do not know why MBP36 does not have VOX feature when it is pretty much standard for baby monitors. Moreover, accessing volume control in the night with MBP36 gives you pain since you have to go through the main menu to change the volume. On the contrary, 3037’s volume control button is located on left side of parent unit which is convenient in the night. 3037 supports mute when MBP36 doesn’t.
Pan & Tilt Camera: SEW-3037 > MBP36
Rotating speed and angle is identical. 3037 camera has more slick and professional looking. MBP36 has temperature sensor when 3037 doesn’t. Yet, 3037 has night light which can be turned on or off from the parent unit.
In my opinion, these two units are quite identical to each other and have crucial features of baby monitors, but yet, Samsung clearly did their homework to improve down flows of MBP36 by making SEW-3037 more user-friendly and get rid of unnecessary features such as temperature sensor. SEW-3037 is a well-built baby monitor that I highly recommend for anyone. If you are looking for updated version of MBP36, this is it.

SEW-3037 is a great buy! No questions about it!,
I knew exactly what I wanted when I was going to get baby monitor for my baby daughter. I searched both for a video and audio monitor and decided on the Samsung SEW-3037. As far as I am concerned, I don’t mind spending a little bit more as long as I am getting what I paid for. With this in mind, I quickly decided not to go with an audio monitor. I think the option to monitor my child with both video and audio would worth the extra money I spend. Then focusing my attention on the video monitors, I settled between on the Samsung SEW-3037 for several reasons.
Before making the purchase I looked at the features of the monitor. The monitor offered a great range and an interference free connection. It also has some features that really tweeked my interest. I thought the two way talk feature was pretty useful and the fact that you can connect up to four cameras really got me thinking about the various potential uses of this system. (maybe not only as a baby monitor). Lastly, it had the VOX feature that I didn’t know too much about but it got me interested. It said something about noise cancellation and I wondered how that would work. Lastly, I was very excited about the PTZ feature on the cameras.
As for design, I believe Samsung’s monitor looks sleek and elegant. The black on white really makes the monitor look like a quality product. The overall design of the camera, the color, and shape of the monitor is sharp, and the four way directional button to control the camera is very convenient and easy to use.
Why I decided to go with Samsung: I purchased the SEW-3037 because of three reasons. As a company, I trust Samsung. They know how to make electronic products. I love their TV and I love their phones. I figured, they’d do a great job on this as well. Secondly, the overall image quality, the PTZ feature, and the VOX feature. Lastly, the monitor being expandable to four camera system.
After receiving the monitor: I love it. I tested it for a couple of days and I can’t stop playing with it. The overall video and audio quality on the camera is very good. The range hasn’t given us any problems and we have a pretty sizeable house. I don’t believe it’s available now, but I definitely plan to purchase more cameras. The VOX is a great feature. It saves battery so you get a good couple of hours on the monitor. It also keeps things quietly and goes into sleepmode when my daughter isn’t making any noise for a minute or two. Then it comes alive again if she stirs. You can set the sensitivity and also turn it off all together.
The feel of the cameras and the monitor is solid, not flimsy at all. The color and design is as I thought, very sleek. I love the look of the camera. I’m thinking I’m going to find other uses for it even after my daughter gets older. I think this was a great buy and definitely will recommend it to my friends.
