Review on 1080P HD Webcam with Microphone: High-quality ๐ŸŽฅ Streaming for PC Laptop Video Calling and Conferencing by Rodney Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fair price, poor quality

I have a phone (Pixel 4) and an HP Chromebook that I use regularly for work, Zoom calls and more. I just wanted to be able to sit at my computer and make Zoom calls from there. The overprice of webcams since the end of February is absolutely ridiculous. Shipping: I ordered this on May 15th (Revain Prime) and it arrived on May 28th. With Prime Shipping it's almost two weeks. The estimate Revain gave me was pretty accurate. Build Quality: Everything is plastic and sticks to the computer screen quite well (perhaps a little wobbly). Camera Quality: This is the biggest problem. Actual lens/sensor quality is terrible. By default the contrast is MUCH higher, everything is incredibly overexposed and grainy. No software is included (it's basically plug and play), so there's no way to really tweak the exposure settings. Basically, this product is acceptable only because everything is sold out in the market. In normal times you can get much better quality products for the same price. My Pixel has an incredible camera and my Chromebook's camera is pretty bad but still better than this thing. I'll probably use it anyway. That's convenient. To be honest I haven't managed to get the mic working yet, but I usually use my gaming headset for calls anyway, so I haven't done much troubleshooting. If you REALLY need a webcam for work and the timing of getting something is up to you and you ONLY do video conferencing, this may help. For everything else, save your time and money for something better; this is the lowest acceptable quality for a commercially available webcam. Microphone update: It's broken. At first I couldn't even use it, but after reinstalling the drivers it worked for me. There is basically a continuous horrible noise. I've attached a video so you can see the bad video/audio quality.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Vanish
