Review on ๐Ÿ“ท Amcrest AWC897 4K Webcam with Privacy Cover, USB Camera for PC/Desktop & Laptop, HD Streaming Webcam with Mic, Wide Angle Lens & Superior Low Light Sensor by Paul Vanlaere

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Two of the two were bad

I've been eyeing Logitech webcams for a long time but they've been hard to find. I stumbled across this camera from Amcrest and decided to give it a try because I've had good luck with their outdoor security cameras. These webcams don't meet the same standard. I used to work with the first one sometimes, but crashed a few times in a 30 minute meeting. Other times it wouldn't turn on at all and I had to switch USB ports and fiddle with it to get it working again. I contacted Revain and sent the first one back for a replacement. The replacement came and I had other problems. The camera turns on, but the autofocus doesn't work and everything is in a red cast. I haven't tried it long enough to see if it cuts the same as the first one, but the red hue is too flashy to use for a meeting. . I sent them back and will look for Logitech.

Pros
  • Sturdy build
Cons
  • I'm concerned about these
