Rapoo C260 Full HD 1080P USB Webcam

I've recently bought this for use in the office where the built in camera on my laptop was at a weird angle and with my back to a window was badly backlit and couldn't cope. This seems to do the job really well. Built in mic not incredible but sufficient, picture quality excellent for Zoom/Teams meeting purposes, setup a piece of cake. For the price, exactly what I expected.

I have had this camera for a month now, I bought this somewhat in urgent as my laptop was not working as well as it used to be.

Pros:
Wide view
1080 resolution - is all you need for the meetings for your self.
Video was good enough with brightness and clearness.

Cons:
The cam does not have its stand but it mounts on top of the monitor with its adjustable L shaped clip.
The cam stays on the top of the monitor stable but its there is no bolt or screws, so it will be annoying if you have to move around your monitors often.
The cam works with USB cable - which is relatively short. If you work on your PC and it is relatively far from ...view more I have had this camera for a month now, I bought this somewhat in urgent as my laptop was not working as well as it used to be.

I didn't test its mic, I used my airpod.

In sum;
It was above my expectation and I was able to join meetings without a problem.
The video was clear and brightness was good for me.
This will be enough if you are not planning to become a live steamer or making movies.

I was considering a $250 Logitech stream camera, but opted for this. It is cheap and cheerful, both video and audio quality are ok for video conferencing etc and it deals with a lot of the common lighting issues (bright sunlight, low light etc).
Its nothing amazing but its pretty good for the price. I expect to replace it when a few more USB-C 4k cameras come out. I was considering a $250 Logitech stream camera, but opted for this.

A surprisingly great little camera. Not a named brand, but at a (semi) decent price I took the risk. Image quality is great, and great mic quality too for a webcam. Struggles a little in the dark, but why would you use your camera in the dark? A surprisingly great little camera. Not a named brand, but at a (semi) decent price I took the risk.

Easy to install and use. Easy to install and use.

Brought as a cheaper alternative the a Logitech camera which we had a few fail... This works as well or better for a better price. Brought as a cheaper alternative the a Logitech camera which we had a few fail... This works as well or better for a better price.

Microphone sucks, but other than that it goes well. Perhaps a bit clearer than you may like if you are prone to jumping on zoom for early meetings before you've showered like me, but hey. We can't be perfect. Microphone sucks, but other than that it goes well.

Picks up a bad flicker with LED lights in our office, makes video very hard on the eyes. Picks up a bad flicker with LED lights in our office, makes video very hard on the eyes.

The webcam has good picture quality and lots of flexibility for adjustments. For example, it has 360 degree horizontal swivel and vertical tilt - this is very useful for getting the right frame in video. Highly recommend!
