Pros

Show mode is good for physical demonstrations, showing actual handwritten work in progress. Screen sharing is still the best way to go for sharing most documents. Native windows 11 built-in camera app works flawlessly. Integral privacy cover is great,...  Read More

This is a great webcam that is feature rich and simple to use. Very versatile. Cool design. We use teams for our collaboration tool, so it looks amazing with teams. The pros:- cool design.



Cons

Not clearly identified on the sales page at time of purchase. It is inferior to good ol' c920 and i would argue even to regular built in webcam. This product is not production ready so be careful or plan to spend a lot of time doing their qa for them....  Read More

Image quality is clear and the mic does a good job delivering vocal input while reducing background noise.


In addition, the audio quality was meh, too.


From an image quality standpoint, it can't equal the original brio, which is only a few dollars more, and is only marginally be...  Read More

Price


My only issue with this camera is the price.


This purchase is well worth the cost of this premium camera.


If you can live with the limitations and the price doesn't deter you it is an ok webcam.

Packaging/appearance


The webcam was packaging in an all paper/cardboard box with very little plastic.

Competitiveness


The 501’s superior low light and backlight performance not only beat out my integrated camera by a country mile but also proved...  Read More


I'm happy with my purchase; i wouldn't hesitate to recommend this product to others that need a high-quality webcam for their w...  Read More


I wanted a high-quality webcam to compliment my work-from-home setup.
