Hip-healthy acknowledgement by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute is the specification that matters most in a carrier, and it is checkable rather than a marketing phrase: the seat supports the thigh to the knee so the hips sit in the M position, where a narrow-base carrier leaves the legs dangling from the crotch and is associated with dysplasia risk.

Not being a Wi-Fi monitor is the feature rather than a limitation.
Full details →Who the Ergobaby Omni 360 All-in-One Ergonomic Baby Carrier is for
Buy it if: Anyone carrying from newborn through toddler who wants hip positioning done correctly.

Who the Infant Optics DXR-8 PRO Video Baby Monitor 5" Screen is for
Buy it if: Anyone who wants a monitor that cannot be reached from outside the home.
Avoid it if: Anyone who needs to check the camera while away from the house -- this cannot do that by design.
