Review on Logitech Laptop Webcam Design 360 Degree by Mike Wieneke

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great wearable webcam and features at an affordable price! Difficult to install drivers!

Logitech HD webcam for C615 laptop with 360 degree foldable design and 1080p camera. just plug it in and get started. The generic driver is loaded by Windows/Webcam and should work fine. If you want to take advantage of the features and functions of this webcam. Get ready for a lengthy installation.******************************************** *************************************************** ******* ***** ** UPDATE: The software was not easy to install and connect and play on WIN 7/64. I'm a geek and own my own dual processor win 7 pro gaming pc with too much memory and disk space to list. I'm an experienced user. A NOTICE. Had to go to the logitech website and look through a strange table to find out what software is for win 7/64 bit. "DOWNLOAD" button on the NOT FOR DRIVER page; it was for the CAMERA CONTROL! https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024846573-Downloads-HD-Webcam-C615.NOT DRIVER; CAMERA CONTROL!

Too bad for Logitech. Why publish a beautifully designed product, but to use it you must be a software developer. have a new PC with Win 10; However, USB 3.0 cannot be used. What happened? It was worth it. Works great but requires advanced knowledge to install specific driver for webcam and operating system.**************************** * ** ********************************************** * *** ********************************************* ***** **** Great little webcam with the features of the best models. 360 degree rotation and foldable design are ideal for portability. The base actually hangs over a regular flat screen or laptop without tipping over due to its counterweight in the base. I like Logitech devices. Easy. Easy to use. Functional. Cool features. I will be using this for video conferencing at work and school on my desktop. I hope to record podcasts too. Experimenting with features, video quality and possibilities. More on that later. The cord is short but the description says 3 feet. Ideal for laptops and mobile devices, but you'll need a USB extender to connect it to your desktop. I will try to leave additional comments on how the USB extension cable affects the quality. Logitech and any geek will tell you to plug it straight into your computer's USB port. Not via a hub or splitter that degrades the signal and timing. It'll just be plug and play for most, but don't expect miracles if you have an old PC or laptop that's slow or outdated. On Windows computers, Logitech says this only works with USB 2.0 at high speed on your PC's USB port. My computer is over 10 years old and has USB 3.0. For real? There are problems using USB 3.0. Big disappointment in that regard. I'll try anyway and let you know. As with any USB device, I strongly recommend installing the software downloaded from Logitech BEFORE plugging it in. The software and webcam give you more options than the simple Windows drivers. It looks confusing on the website for downloading the software. After clicking each button, a driver for all versions of Windows 7-10 will appear. It comes with a two year warranty. Impressive. mono sound. The tripod is not included. Revain Basics mini worked for me. I haven't tried it on my Android yet. I would buy it again and recommend it. Especially for $32.

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • Low repairability
