Better hope it doesn't break! Or prepare to lose big $$$

I ordered this in May and within the first month the active IQ tracking stopped working. I've had other Huddly IQ cameras that worked great with the same computers I tested them on. I still needed this camera, so I attempted to exchange (not return!) a BROKEN AND DEFECTIVE Huddly IQ within 30 days of purchase and all I got back was a $543 credit (I originally paid $849 ). Not sure why I was charged for restocking unless that broken camera is shipped to someone else who also has $300 and still…

Lots of promises but doesn't work

On some laptops, the camera usually freezes after a few seconds. This includes a very short original cable. The original cable slightly increased the likelihood that it would work for more than a few seconds. We couldn't find a working USB cable. It sometimes worked well with the very short original cable and the auto-framing made some questionable framing decisions, but it worked. Also, I don't like the default image quality; I was expecting it to be much sharper and cleaner. The software may…

Huddly IQ is the best we've ever used

We tried 4 or 5 different cameras in our conference rooms. We advise on individual jewelry design via video conference (in this case Zoom). People enter and leave the room during the session. The camera frames people perfectly as they come and go, and the wide-angle lens allows us to place people very close to the camera and screen/TV at the end of the room, keeping them in frame - this allows us to take advantage of our small conference rooms in a pleasant way. As far as we know, the camera…

Pros
  • Integrated 5-element microphone array for optimal speech intelligibility
Cons
  • -

I really wanted to love this camera. I think the team at Huddly IQ did a great job with this camera and it will work great in most conference rooms. But for large conference rooms that require more direct zoom control, it just won't replace an optical zoom camera. My room is a large room 20 feet deep and the camera needed to be able to crop and zoom in on the people in the room. Cropping worked great, but the zoom just couldn't produce a sharp image. I also wish you could control the auto crop…

Pros
  • The camera's AI recognizes people in the camera's field of view and responds by automatically framing them and smoothly adjusting the frame as people enter and leave the meeting room.
Cons
  • Volume
