I did a lot of research on this thing before purchasing. Basically I am having to work from home for a while and my office wanted me still "in the office" if you will. My boss bought another webcam that was supposedly plug and play and compatible with Windows 10, but it wasn't and ended up being a nightmare. I did some research and saw that Skype rated this in the top 5 webcams that work best with Skype. I also read on CNET that for the price range is was the best. If you want to pay a little more I would go with the C920. I wasn't paying and I had to keep the cost down. It was truly plug and play, the Logitech drivers popped up and started installing. It was very quick and simple. I do wish that most of these companies would quit letting Bing and all that be apart of the installation process where you have to pay attention to uncheck the boxes during installation, however thats neither here nor there for this review. Once the cam was up there is a "Follow my face" feature which could definitely be handy and works surprisingly well. The picture quality is very good and the sound/mic is excellent. I really was shocked at how easy setup was and at the quality at this pricing point. If your looking for a very good cam with a good mic at a low price, you cant go wrong with this thing.
The only reason it got 4 stars was because of the cord length. I know that seems silly and stupid, but its ridiculously short. If your using it on desktop like me, then its a huge issue, I actually had to move my PC up onto my desk because of this cam. The cord is extremely short, so to use it on my monitor as it should be, is more tricky. If they would have put a normal size cord, I would have given it 5 stars, maybe they were only thinking of people that use laptops. I am that person most of the time, just not for work. It is very compatible with Skype, Skype picked it all up very quickly and has since worked flawlessly. I keep this cam on for almost 9-10 hours 5 days a week and I have yet to have an issue with this cam now for a couple weeks. The other side says I am very clear and sound very clear, they are using the same cam, especially compared to what we were us ing.
Boxing was what I have come to expect with Logitech. Very nice, secure, and simple manuals. If my review was helpful to you, please click yes below.
