![]() It has all the essentials covered as well, including solid video quality and a surprisingly good mic (although it lacks features you might be used to from the mic in your laptop or headset, like noise cancellation), as well as a lightweight utility to control the camera position and zoom in software. You can zoom digitally, but as with any 1080p webcam, that gets ugly fast. ![]() It also has a 110-degree field of view, which is kind of wide for your usual web conferencing. Other trade-offs for the price: a captive USB-A cable and a non-removable mount. The build feels about what you'd expect for a cheap webcam, plasticky but not fragile, and the mount supports tilt and swivel. The mic performs noise cancellation, but you can't turn it off or adjust it, and I heard quite a bit of popping and tinniness on my end. It's got a built-in mic, although the audio quality is disappointing. It doesn't currently work with MacOS Monterey, so I couldn't test that, but the company promises an update to support the latest version of the OS within the next couple of months. ![]() It also allows you to save presets for all the adjustable settings. For instance, the manual white balance actually works well along a continuum rather than just giving you a choice between too pink or too green. ![]() Nexigo's software isn't pretty, but some of it's a lot more functional than much of what I've used. Scaled down to a typical laptop viewing size, it looks good. Under those conditions, you can see noise and softness, but it's no worse than most 1080p webcams under $100. Don't expect great 1080p picture quality at full-size viewing or in low light. There's only so much you can do with the image quality on a basic 1080p 30fps webcam, but the Nexigo still delivers better video quality than many 720p laptop webcams, with relatively solid white balance and autoexposure, even across various lighting conditions. ![]()
