A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

Really neat. Early conversations left a lasting good effect, with participants remarking on the high quality of the film.
What I didn't like was how, after starting to work, after a while (13-20 minutes), a white dot would appear on the screen, indicating a damaged pixel. This is a major shortcoming for a camera at this price point. It was white and glowed in the dark at irregular intervals. When face tracking was activated, the situation became quite frustrating. I returned it to the store and got a new one without any hassle. There are no problems that I could discover, so go ahead and buy it.

Pros

The video and audio were both of excellent quality, and I was unable to find any problems. The internal microphone is comparable to or better than many external microphones in terms of sound quality (no echo, moderate volume). Drivers are automatically installed on 7ke as an internet connection is made. I like the face tracking feature (the camera follows your face as you move, focusing on it). It's true that the camera has no moving parts and that everything is controlled by a computer program.

Cons

Price. The bare minimum price tag in Hong Kong is HK$1300. pricey as hell if you ask me. The true cost of it is around $900. Take it without question; you'll find that the price is well worth it. There are numerous reports of failed mountings on monitors; it is true that if the screen is thick, it will be difficult to hang it. My Samsung T200G was really easy to use in terms of getting up. The system unit's distance from the monitor can be an issue if only a short camera connection (less than one meter) is provided.
