Review on 1080P HD Webcam with Microphone for PC Video Conferencing/Calling/Gaming - Plug and Play USB Computer Webcam [30fps] - Compatible with Laptop/Desktop Mac, Skype/YouTube/Zoom/Facetime by Mario Beats

If you are using a docked laptop to install a larger monitor, keyboard and mouse, you still need to open it to use the camera/microphone. In this age of Zoom meetings, working from home, this can be tedious. Having such an external camera solves this problem for me. Now this laptop can stay closed. And despite the low price of this camera, the image quality is excellent for upscaling. It's definitely better than the built-in camera on my HP laptop.
