Disappointed that resolution on videos was not 4K? Only on still images
I am happy with the webcam so far, fit for purpose, image quality is good for a 4k / 8Mb webcam. Tested it on Windows Camera App, Zoom video test and Microsoft Teams, image quality, auto focus, audio and microphone were good.
Will be using the webcam for video calls to relatives in Australia, doctor online sessions etc. So will not be able to test the 30fps rate right away, will look at using OBS Studio which is free, for streaming projects at a later date.
Gave 4 stars, not the fault of the webcam, initially pnp only gave access to audio and microphone but not to video. Tracked down eventually to the USB port not having the UVC protocol extension installed. Having an old PC was the problem but did find a usable USB port on the back panel. Microsoft have a website dealing with installing a UVC protocol extension on your USB port.
Would be nice if minimum system requirements were available for the different Depstech models, trouble shooting was not helpful, had to go online to search for solutions..
Some small issues; the webcam clamp is not a clamp but works as a cantilever perched on the screen, any jarring of the screen may dislodge the webcam, the provided tripod is a solution if the webcam is not secure. The privacy cover is not integrated with the webcam, it is stuck on with double sided tape to the front of the camera and slides back and forth.
Awesome little webcam for the money , especially like the privacy cover that comes included
Now I am not tech-savvy; this is coming from someone who works and studies from home and wanted to upgrade their camera quality. This is a very nice camera; you don’t need to toggle with the settings too much as the colours are realistic and do not give that overly pink saturation when in use. It does what it needs to do, and if you are simply looking for an upgrade from the poor quality camera built into your laptop, this is the one. The camera quality is arguably as nice or better than the Razer Kiyo.
The camera is good. Better than my old 20 years old one. Great value.
I use mine within Windows 10. The autofocus is a bit hit and miss, but when it works it is very clear. The picture quality makes me wonder if it really is 1080p but I guess it must be – or perhaps my lighting is wrong. Only time will tell…
This webcam worked straight out of the box, the packaging was well presented, it came with instructions, a tripod and lens privacy cover. I am impressed with the quality of the webcam and the quality of the image.
So I brought this webcam as an upgrade to my previous webcam and I wanted 4k picture quality without spending way too much. For the price this camera is fantastic as long as you have decent lighting, it doesn’t handle low light well at all creating a lot of picture noise and lines so having you and your background properly lit up is crucial. Little issue I faced is lowering the resolution from 4k didn’t improve the frame rate but didn’t get in my way too much.
I bought this camera to replace the mediocre built in one on a work laptop, which I can now leave permanently closed. The built in microphones are an improvement, according to my colleagues, and the camera has just the right amount of wide-angle for desk based video meetings. Picture is decent; I don’t know if it’s really 4K – it may be capturing that quality but I suspect that Teams compresses video a LOT to make it viable. Maybe I paid for more than I needed but I was wary of the very cheap cameras; paying about 50 something reliable seemed fair to me. The pedigree of Depstech (and Sony for the sensor) made this worth the money.
Setup was as simple as plugging it in and clicking OK when Windows popped up a message, and telling Teams to use this device for video and microphone input.
Recommended.
bottom line does what it says on the tin, video is clean, as expected so much depends on your internet speed & connection at the other end…
Unless you are in a tutorials or streaming, where you would use a canon camera or something anyways, this webcam for any sort of meetings works better than the camera on a MacBook !
Obviously as will all photography, you need good lighting, you need a good mount point, a good background etc, no miracles here .
But once you have done the basics you are sorted. And for the price it’s great as it is just a plug and play!
Comes with camera cover ( weirdos out there ) and also a cool graphic sticker x 3
Remember lighting and mount point ( on monitor etc ) and you won’t regret !
Incredibly impressed with this 4k webcam for a fraction of the price of brands like Logitech etc. Reason for purchase was being fed up of having to move & open my laptop from under my monitor stand for Teams calls, so with this camera having the option to perch on top of my monitor, or to stand on the tripod, it seemed perfect – which it is. Image quality is incredible, and the autofocus, even if incredibly bright or low light conditions is brilliant. The privacy cover is a great addition and gives you the assurance of privacy. There is a small white light which shows whether the camera is in use, but the cover gives further peace of mind.
My only small disappointment, was that the tripod I received was not the same as the photo’s in other reviews or the pictures. It’s not a massive issue as it is near enough hidden, but this one isn’t as aesthetically pleasing and looks a little less sturdy than the one pictured on the product page.
Other than that, incredible product, and with the 20% off promotion, it only cost me 52 which I think is a bargain.
Would definitely recommend this webcam.
Amazing to use and great quality/focus however it gets a 4/5 rating only because the flickering due to lighting that I’ve tried to fix many times and couldn’t. It’s something to do with the voltage/using it in UK or something not too sure as its not my area of knowledge.
Considering the price of this webcam is on the cheaper side the overall quality of the webcam is excellent.
I have been using this webcam for streaming and video chats with my friends and have had no problems with it. I have recommended friends of mine to purchase this webcam over others such as the C920 as the quality of the picture is so much more crisp. Would definitely buy this product agai
I bought this webcam as I was sick of manually adjusting focus when switching between sitting and standing at my desk.
The picture quality is a decent upgrade from my previous webcam that cost 50% a mere few months ago, and is comparable to my colleagues Logitech cameras that cost more than double the price.
There might be better quality webcams out there, but nothing I could find comes close at this price range. The accessories are a nice touch, and the camera has been plug and play on Linux (Arch btw), macOS, and Windows.
This camera is great quality. It works as soon as you plug it and the design is awesome. Definitely worth the price.
What more could I ask for…I am taking about plug and play feature, 4KUHD, Dual microphone, Auto-focusing, 360 rotation, fits perfectly on top of my monitor, tripod stand, privacy cover…
Without a doubt, the webcam is the best thing since the discovery of sliced bread!!!!
Superb picture quality, easy to set up, very nice unit indeed
Figured it was time for an upgrade so given the price of this webcam I would say, it’s not overpriced. I did miss the Prime day sale by a mere few hours so unfortunately I missed out on quite a nice discount but oh well.
Webcam does well, 4K resolution. Being honest, was expecting a sharper, Twitch Streamer / YouTuber type of image quality but I can’t complain as this camera isn’t bordering on 200 or however much Professional webcams go for these days. Lighting is fairly good even in low light situations, can sit in my room with all the lights off in the middle of the night and see my face very well.
Auto Focus is great, when it focuses in, but as soon as you remove the object from the view of the lens, it does have a little trouble focusing back. This may be a software problem as I was using the generic Windows camera app to record my videos, however, Trying it in Zoom, i noticed i had to manually refocus the lens to get it to latch back on to me from time to time. I’ve only had the camera for a relative 5 mins so i’m sure there are ways to adjust this feature a lot better. Am hoping this camera comes with regular firmware updates which may make better use of its features and improve the overall experience.
Dual Microphone is fairly good, my voice wasn’t muffled or making a fizzing sound when speaking which is also a positive.
However, I do have a dedicated microphone I already use for my gaming and video call sessions, so I wasn’t too bothered about the In-Built microphone in all fairness.
Overall, I would say this is a worthy buy. Would’ve been nice if I had reacted sooner and taken advantage of the Prime Day sale, as I would say that would be the ideal price for this webcam. But Oh well, it is still quite an investment and I don’t see myself upgrading for a number of years so it pretty much pays for itself.
Very impressive quality audio and visual! Easy to install. Only thing I would say is the attachment to the monitor is a bit crap, whilst universal, it’s loose enough that oyu have to hold it to move the camera, and setting it up, it fell off the monitor a few times! But all in all, a good product!!
This webcam is pretty much perfect. The quality is surprisingly good for the price. I’ve had other cheap webcams that are about 3 times worse than this one.
The actual build quality of the webcam is very nice. It’s made of plastic but doesn’t feel too cheap. It also looks really sleek and comes with a privacy covert and a tripod which are also made to a decent quality.
The camera has an easy mounting system so that it can sit on your laptop/monitor easily and stably, and also has a ball joint that allows it to move 360
If that doesn’t work, the included tripod allows you to sit it on your desk.
This camera includes a microphone- which isn’t special and not able to outperform a dedicated microphone, however it works and is good enough. This is meant to be a webcam, not a microphone, so beggars can’t be choosers.
I do not recommend using the webcam microphone for streaming/content creation, however, it is perfect for if you are using the webcam for video calls etc. as you can just plug the webcam in and you’re good to go- no seperate microphone needed.
Overall I’m blown away by this webcam (for the price). Are there better webcams out there? Yes. of course there are. But for the price? Probably not. This webcam performs to the same level as cameras that are double the price and it is fit for streaming, youtube, video calls etc.
Small complaints/recommendations:
Light may be an issue if you’re in a dark area, however, this is easily fixed by getting a small light
The microphone isn’t amazing, so if you want to stream/make content, then buy a dedicated mic.
Although the autofocus is good and responsive, it can cause “focus wobble” which isn’t noticeable unless you’re moving a lot. This can be fixed by making it manual focus though, but you’ll need software like OBS.
The camera serves its purpose well.
TL;DR
-The webcam is amazing. The camera quality is insanely good (for the price) and is also well built.
-Comes with a tripod and privacy slide, which are nice to have and useful.
-Unless you’re willing to spend over 100, you probably won’t find a better webcam
-Easy to use and setup
-Almost no complaints apart from the autofocus can cause wobble, and lighting may be an issue (but can easily be fixed)
Using a mac mini and chromebook
Both works Plug and play
Auto focus work on different o/s tested
One of a good good 4k cams on a budget!!
I have change 2 webcams in the past for the awful quality, but this is great even the microphone. Only thing that could have made the camera better if it had windows hello integrated in it.
overall great produc
Immediately got comments from the people on conference calls that picture quality is amazing. The only thing you need to make sure is HD option is selected in video settings on Zoom, WebEx, Teams etc.
I used this for my work teams meeting and us excellent. Well worth the money. I love the colour balance and how it gives you a “cooler look” improving lighting.
The design and build quality is good with a matt finish around the outside. The camera can rotate 360 and tilt to some degrees too. The Depstech webcam also comes with a mini tripod as well as a lens cover too.
The video and sound quality is good which make it ideal if you don’t have a separate microphone and webcam.
I like it. I think it’s a good camera with good quality. Can’t comment on audio as i use my headest anyway.
well what can i say…. Except what a great webcam for the price, finally a good alternative to the Big Boys…..
the video quality is better than expected and i know my lighting in test was only from the window light and no additional lighting i am happy to use this cam for my online courses and zoom calls ect, the audio quality is clear, the background noise can be heard is the Air Con running……
the additional feature is the stick on privacy shutter, although i have not used it i think its great for those who choose too, it is a shame it was not built into the cam though, the option to run at 4k could not be tested as i don’t have the support here to show 4k so i am unable to test 🙁
the little tripod is a great added bonus and the clamp for the monitor is also good to use a desk stand as well
Would i recommend this webcam? Yes i would defiantly would, not the most expensive, nor the cheapest but midrange in price and i think its worth every penny!
As always I am looking for the products that are easy to use and practical like this plug and play portable webcam. My work require the use of multiple computers therefore features mentioned above matter to me the most. I am surprised with the picture quality of this webcam as previously used full hd 1080 webcam and thought that it can not get any better without spending the fortune on 4k webcam however I found and bought this 4k webcam for the fraction of the price offered by industry “big players” and I am really happy with my purchase. The auto-focus and WDR technology are a nice addition to a 4k webcam as never had a webcam with these features before. Now I have to spend less time preparing for online meetings due to these features. Would recommend to anyone.
Very easy set up and the picture is sharp. I had a 1080 camera and it’s definitely better – even in lower light. Well worth the money.
My usage case for the camera is probably less common, but I spent quite a while looking for cameras that ticked all the boxes for me, firstly this camera is equipped with a Sony sensor, the same one used in other cameras with much higher price points.
I am using the camera to monitor a 3D printer, this allows me to check that everything is still printing as it should be,. The camera is connected to a raspberry pi via USB, the pi detected the camera without any fuss and it was immediately showing live video in octoprint. Additionally, snapshots are taken of the print at each layer start, and then re-assembled into a video where the object magically appears from the print bed.
Furthermore, the camera’s controls are available under Linux which means that parameters such as white balance and other parameters can be changed. The. autofocus seemed to work well, which would be good for people using the camera for social media broadcasts, but for me I was happy to find that I could disable the autofocus and set a manual focus point, this is a critical feature for me as with the printer moving the bed and the printhead I wanted to avoid focusing changes.
Really happy with the product, I watched a lot of youtube reviews before purchasing and they were also favourable.
It’s been a good buy!
This webcam just plugs into my Macbookpro via USB and works without needing any drivers or software installation.
I can now use my larger external monitor for video calls without appearing like I’m not looking, as it’s easy to place the camera centrally on top of the monitor.
The camera also has built in microphones. This is more useful than I first thought. If you use the computer in built microphone, that works well until you need to type on your keyboard while in a meeting when all anyone can here is your keys banging away; using the depsyech microphone means this keyboard noise isn’t picked up.
The image is also super clear and better than the quality of the Macbookpro camera. In video conference, the camera defaults to a nice wide angle mode which means your face doesn’t fill the screen which is nice (but you might need to tidy up the room as more is visible in the background).
If you don’t want to have such a wide angle, simple and free apps are available to adjust the settings, for example “webcam effects ” for mac in the app store is free and lets you alter many settings like zoom pan and tilt . Top tip, use this app to zoom in a little the use its pan and tilt settings to fine tune to view which for small adjustments is a little easier than trying to physically move the camera.
Finally, a mini tripod is included so you can place the camera below or to the side of your monitor (or anywhere else really). It’s also supplied with a stick on privacy filter which you can slide to cover the camera lense; I haven’t bothered with this, as there’s a white led that clearly indicates when the camera is enabled too
Good camera for the price. Picture quality, resolution, sharpness, contrast and low-light performance is pretty good. Background blur works perfectly in Zoom and other conferencing apps. 30fps only which is enough for work. Microphone isn’t the best, but can come handy on the run. Pure plug-and-play on Windows, no driver installation required. Cable isn’t removable so mostly for use at a fixed desk.
The camera is a great device and works well with good picture and sound.
Set up is a quick and easy provided your Windows PC is open and unlocked to allow software.
I bought this webcam for improved video calls whilst working from home. Works very well with Skype for Business, Webex and Zoom. Image quality is excellent. Crystal clear – see video attached of some flowers in the garden recorded at 1080p. Sound quality is great too. The camera is physically quite wide giving good stereo mic separation. See attached photos of it ontop of a standard 22 inch monitor and also alongside an older webcam. Highly recommended.
I have already bought a couple of products from Depstech, so I am familiar with the quality of the brand and app software, I mainly use their endoscope inspection cameras for work and they are good quality and create amazing videos, So I thought I would buy and try out there 4K webcam as I wanted one.
What an excellent crystal clear image from this webcam, you can clearly see that the resolution is 4K and the frame rate of 30 fps is decent with no image blur and stuttering and works well in low light conditions.
The auto-focus works very well and keeps the image crystal clear, you can see it clearly working in the video, I didn’t want to use my face on amazon, so used one of my plants instead to focus on.
Microphone works well and people can hear me clearly while using on Facebook messenger and WhatsApp, the tripod is very handy if you want to use it on the desk instead of on top of your monitor. The design and construction is of good quality and doesn’t look cheap. And it’s plug and play so windows install’s the webcam without any problems.
Excellent 4K webcam for the price.
The camera arrived next day of order. Intallation was a breeze and works very well offering the 4k image clarity as expected.
Fantastic little webcam, does exactly as advertised. The picture quality is fantastic for the price and with good lighting it can probably rival even a dedicated DLSR camera.
Auto focus does a reasonable job, and the included privacy cover gives you peace of mind when not in use.
Overall would recommend this product.
Was looking for a top quality 4k webcam with a build in microphone and I have to say when I decided on the Depstech 4K AF UHD Webcam it was 100% the right decision, for doing zooms, Skype, facetime ect it’s amazing quality , it’s auto focus makes it so simple & a joy to work with, I can not recommend this Webcam highly enough, it’s great as I can use on top of my Mac book or use it’s own stand and it’s great to just be able to transfer from different laptops so all the family can easily use it.
I recently bought the Logitech brio for 180 and it wasn’t that great so I tried this particular model and it was worth the money. I would recommend this web cam over the brio. Good quality, great to have 4K for my YouTube videos. Loved it.
I like how this is cheap for its quality and how easy it is to setup!
Just unboxed this new web cam which i use for business calls. As you can see from the image, the old web cam, had a strange hue and contrast to the picture, where as this one actually looks very realistic
I intentionally included a background in google meet, and you can see the new cam, with its auto focus does not start focussing on peripheral elements so the background stays more intact rather than blurring out. When you remove the background image the auto-focus gives you a special kind of realistic ‘glow’.
Its a great improvement just with these two features. The 4K is better resolution than the 2K and now means i have to shave more often!
I recently purchased a Mac mini, to connect to my OLEDTV, as the Mac Mini does not come with a webcam, I decided to invest in the Despatch 4k Webcam, Installation was a breeze, I positioned the Webcam on the top of my TV, even though my TV has a vey thin bezel around the screen, using the clamp attached to the camera, it fitted , with no problem (see Photo), It was then just a matter of plugging in the USB into the back of my Mac Mini, and I was up and running.The swivel joint allows easy positioning of the camera, I am sat approx 7ft away from the camera, and the quality is pretty good, I wouldn’t say 4k, but it is acceptable , even at that distance the microphone can pick up my voice, although when on a FaceTime call, the other person did say I was a little quiet, but they could still hear me. Overall I am pleased with the Webcam, and the privacy cover supplied, is a nice feature.
A very useful webcam that can replace the 720p webcam on a laptop. The 2K resolution looks much better than my normal webcam, which fits perfectly on the second screen. For privacy considerations, it is also a good choice to have a clamshell protective cover.
The camera is really good the appearance looks great, and the screen recording is also very clea
This did not fail to impress – 4K quality although 1080p would be fine and my clients are impressed with the quality their end.
I did not use the Mic on the camera as that is the only thing that lets it down in my opinion…as its so far away from you on the top of the 27″ iMac. This is not an issue as I use my AirPods anyway.
I do think it is better than some more expensive webcams that I have bought and sent back to Amazon.
Really enjoyed this webcam very easy to setup and install, the quality is crisp and clean and its very very adjustable ! This is perfect for streaming, video calls or any other webcam use! i would highly reccomend!
