Review on StreamCam Webcam by Logitech with Tripod Stand: Optimize Your Video Streaming Experience by Aashit Sing ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Second-rate goods, I wont buy any more.

I used an external, huge studio microphone for the first half of the year rather than the one that was already installed in the computer. After about six months of using the external microphone, I made the decision to switch to the built-in microphone and was immediately confronted with the problem that it frequently "fell off." The external microphone took up a lot of room. At first, I blamed the problem on the USB-to-USB-C adapter; however, after that failed to cure the issue, I invested in an expensive new platform for AMD based on the X570 chipset and reconnected the camera to the back panel; still, the issue remained unresolved. I upgraded the firmware to the most recent version, but that was of no assistance either. I contacted Logitech's technical assistance through email, and the only question they asked in answer to my inquiry was whether I use the Macintosh or Windows operating system (it is unclear why they did not inquire about Linux). Following the receipt of a response that detailed the build number, the operating system vanished for a period of one week (as of 07/03/2022). I use it in the most mundane way possible, which is to communicate with professors and to participate in conferences that take anywhere from forty minutes to two and a half hours. During the course of one talk, the microphone "lost its grip" three times. It was quite unpleasant to have to climb to the back panel every time in order to switch it off and then back on again. Although I've heard that some people have issues with the sound and video being out of sync, I've personally never come into this problem. never produced or streamed any stuff of their own.

Pros
  • The camera appears to be of high quality, individuals on the opposite side have expressed positive feedback on the picture, and it is handily connected to the display.
Cons
  • The kit does not come with an adapter that allows you to connect to a standard USB port, and it may be very challenging to find such an adaptor for sale. As a consequence of this, I ended up ordering it from Hong Kong through some obscure online retailer that I had never come across before. In both Skype and Zoom, the microphone has a tendency to disconnect itself in the middle of a call; the only way to fix this issue is to disconnect the cable from the connector and then reconnect it to the computer. It would appear that there is no technical support available. There may be some other deficiencies that I was unable to uncover in the past.
