The flow rate of the teat matters more than the bottle, and it is the commonest bottle-feeding mistake: these ship with a medium flow teat suited to about three months and up, and a newborn given medium flow gulps, swallows air and gets exactly the colic the anti-colic valve exists to prevent.

Not being a Wi-Fi monitor is the feature rather than a limitation.
Full details →Who the Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle 260ml 4-Pack is for
Buy it if: Anyone bottle feeding who will match teat flow rate to the baby's age.
Avoid it if: Anyone using the supplied medium teat with a newborn -- buy slow flow separately.
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.

| Why flow matters | A teat flowing too fast causes gulping, air swallowing and the colic the bottle is meant to prevent. This is the commonest mistake with bottle feeding | not published |
| Why that matters | not published | Wi-Fi baby monitors have been remotely accessed by strangers in documented cases. An FHSS monitor has no internet path, so it cannot be reached from outside the house |
