You’re on mute!

Works great. The camera and mic do great, we love the little camera blocker too, makes it obvious that the camera is blocked. If we got another set up we would buy again.

OK value. Frustrating to frequently open LogiTune to fix zoom, but that's general Logi macOS issue

I purchased this camera to be a lower cost Brio that was less sophisticated than the ones with multiple FoV's while still being full-HD (1080p) and USB-C (to be maximally compatible with my hardware setup). I also liked that it takes up minimal space on the top of my screen (hardly encroaches on my screen's bezel). Generally speaking, it works well -- I am happy with the video and audio quality and how well it fits on top of my screen, and I do not notice any issues with the autofocus (it seems to quickly focus and achieve a good picture, and color looks fine by default but seems easy to adjust using macOS or Logitech tools). I am not sure how much I like the privacy cover-- it's a little weirder to use than I was expecting. I'm always worried that by opening or closing it, I'm going to accidentally adjust the position of the camera. That said, the camera seems to hold its position pretty well, and so this wasn't a problem.

The biggest issue so far is an issue I have with more expensive Brio cameras too. On macOS, the zoom/FoV is never properly set until AFTER I open up a Logitech app, like Logi Tune (which I have loaded into my menu bar for this reason). I purchased this single-FoV camera because I thought that might fix this. With my 3-FoV Brio's that I have elsewhere, I always have to go into Logi Tune and force it to my desired FoV (the intermediate FoV) because the camera will frequently reset to a very tight FoV. To my surprise, this single-FoV does the same thing. When I enter into Logi Tune, it fixes what I assume is a zoom issue (because it only has one FoV).

That said, my other Brio devices have trained me well, and it's not that much of a headache. But it would be nice if this fixed it. Otherwise, I might have considered another 3-FoV BRIO.

The other thing is that the record light is a little bigger and brighter than it needs to be, but maybe some will like that.

Video feed glitches

This is such a cheap piece of crap. Plugged it in and immediately the video starts glitching out. I tried it in google hangouts as well as zoom and the same thing happened. Maybe I just recieved a faulty one but now I gotta find a replacement. Buyer beware!

No regrets

It works great. Easy to install, my PC immediately recognized it and didn't have to do annoying drivers. The color is also perfect.

*The Video is a demostration of how it looks like in every angle,and imeith the camera opened up*

Well,i tried it and it worked very well,so i highly recommend it if ur on a budget(i chose the white one even that i usually pick black on devices since sometimes some blues,reds or pinks can look kinda ugly)so now i need to save to get a laptop since mine rn is kinda trash...🤣🤣

Does not work

This is not a Logitech camera. Instead it’s ElGato camera. It automatically installed but failed to work and now having hard time uninstalling from my computer.

For thin monitors only

I tested the picture and it looks good, I trust Logitech with that stuff. Physically though, this camera will only be good for monitors an inch thick or less. Mine is a little over two inches thick in the middle and the clamp is essentially useless. Right now I'm just kinda resting it on top and I have to be careful when I open the cover, because it's not secure.

Solid webcam with privacy features

1080p USB-C plug-and-play webcam with built-in microphone and privacy shade. Image and sound quality are both good. There’s a light that indicates when the camera is recording video (white light) or sound only (orange light).

Good budget webcam

This is a nice addition to my desk set up. I use Zoom for my college class and I would say this webcam is good enough for zoom class. The looks of it too is aesthetically pleasing. It has App as well to adjust the Temp, white balance and sharpness. It uses USB c to connect to your desktop or laptop. I gave it a 4 star because I wish it was a lil bit smaller. However that doesn’t bother me at all. I highly recommend it.

Great little webcam and super cute

It fits nicely on my monitor and was well worth the price. This little webcam works great for how inexpensive it is.

The white color is a bit gray

Compared to my white monitor, it's pretty dark and gray. Just me being aesthetically picky. Good quality camera regardless!

Stylish Neutral Pink Webcam with Impressive Photo Quality

Boasting a stylish and neutral pink color, this webcam adds a touch of sophistication to any setup, with its shade resembling a delicate skin tone. Beyond its chic appearance, the adjustable base ensures a perfect fit on my monitor. A standout feature, however, is the webcam's remarkable photo quality. It captures images with impressive clarity, making it an ideal choice for virtual meetings. The blend of subtle elegance in its pink hue, adaptability with the adjustable base, and outstanding photo quality makes this webcam a visually pleasing and functionally reliable addition to any workspace.

Perfect usb c camera

I had a Logitech originally and the camera was ok but it had no privacy cover and seemed to not connect securely. This little camera attached in one click, the camera is fantastic and it’s extremely well made.

Excellent HD camera, superior to my laptop camera any day

I prefer this camera to my built-in laptop camera as the image is much better, and I can position it in a more direct line of sight so it is not looking up my nose! The privacy shutter is also nice to close when not in use. Plugging in the USB C cord has the computer recognizing it immediately and Teams/Zoom automatically override my laptop camera for this one.

One word of caution... the image is so much better (and wider) that you do need to be careful what's in your background before jumping on a call as the person watching you will see you (and everything in your background) in high resolution!

Impressive Webcam!

The quality of the camera is superb, better than you will see in any integrated laptop camera and I can say it's even better compared to the basic model of Microsoft HD webcams. I absolutely love how it comes with a physical cover for the lens to ensure the camera will not peak on you and even if it activated there is a hardware indicator light that will turn on whenever there is data been transmitted through the lenses. Audio quality captured by the camera is not bad at all, definitely will not replace an external mic, but it is decently good in my opinion. The picture quality is superb and even does a decent job at low light situations. My only complaint is that they didn't include an USB-C to type A adapter for those computer without a free USB-C port but that's just me being picky. Overall amazing webcam and I absolutely recommend it.

Great camera, but there is better value elsewhere

Overall, it's a pretty solid 1080p camera. First off, I downloaded the latest firmware from Logitech's website to make sure I was getting the best experience, and there was an update for the camera that took about 2 minutes to install. There's some limited options to tune the camera via the app, it's well put together. The camera itself is typical of Logitech products (I have a Logitech Vertical MX mouse), it's got great build quality. The materials, weight, and even the movement of the camera blocker does not feel cheap. The mounting system stays on my pc with no issues.

The video quality is great for video calls. There's some slight visual noise in the background, but it's really not that noticeable and will probably be lost in video call compression anyways. Auto-focus and white balance was fast to work and the video looks consistently good all the way through. Microphone was very clear from my experience using it as well. Detail was typical of a 1080p camera.

It's a great camera, and a good investment if you want a long-term device with a premium feel and software support. However, I can get webcams at 1/3-1/2 the price with 2k video or better, and they have nearly as good video quality. However, at that price point you might have inferior color balance or autofocus, and some microphones start to suffer if you move out of the ideal zone for other manufacturers. You really can't go wrong with this webcam, but there are better value options if you're on a budget for sure.

The connector is usb-c only, so just keep it in mind. You might need a usb-c to type-a connector for some older computers.

PnP with ChromeOS! Much better than internal camera

I'm using this cam to take video calls with over a Chromebook that has a less than stellar built-in webcam.

The audio array and camera quality are unquestionably better than using the built-in, and participants in my calls advise that my voice sounds different because of the clarity. It's USB-C out of the box (something more of us are likely beginning to appreciate) so I didn't have to break out a dongle. The (physical) privacy slider is something that may others seem to disregard, but I absolutely love the piece of mind.

I've attached two images - one taken with the Logi camera and the other with my laptops built-in. Pay attention to the doors in the background. Notice the lack of pixelation and noise. Much better results with the Logitech camera. The frame rate in the camera apps "viewfinder" even appears to be higher.

The mounting assembly is awesome too. I own another Logitech camera but it doesn't have this type of mounting arm. This one holds the lip of the laptop screen but the camera can still move up and down. Also, its never fallen off - incredibly effective..

No complaints! Incredibly easy to get going. No dongle. Privacy slider. Effective mounting solution. What more could you want from a webcam?

A good little Camera

The camera works well. It is more for a very skinny monitor. I think the quality works well. and it does just what it says that it will.

Stylish webcam

This is a new webcam from Logitech that I was sent for reviewing purposes and so far I can say this is a great work-from-home webcam with an attached privacy cap that's miles better than pretty much any built-in webcam. The low light performance, while not the best compared to something twice the price like the Elgato, is still miles better than my MacBook Pro webcam. Audio quality is solid and does some noise reducing but still picks up plenty of background noise so keep that in mind if you're in a busy household. Another thing that is important when looking at this is that this is a USB-C webcam which is okay for pretty much any laptop made in the past several years but not as common on desktops. I currently have it hooked up using an adapter to my desktop and works perfectly.

Overall a great compact webcam that is a big improvement over built-in laptop webcams.

You get what you pay for

This camera is great. The mic and image are perfect. I was thinking about going with a cheaper item, but I’m glad I didn’t. It’s a plug and play and no added fuss. I like the design and the privacy cap. Highly recommend.
