The Vtech VM2251 is a compact video monitor that comes with a 2.4-inch colour screen. Despite its low price, it comes with plenty of handy features including two-way talk, a temperature display and sound-sensitive lights. It’s very cheap for a video monitor – some we’ve tested cost more than four times as much. Find out whether it’s a bargain worth snapping up in our review.
