NexiGo N980P 1080P 60FPS Webcam with Microphone and Software Control, USB Computer Camera, Built-in Dual Noise Reduction Mics, 120° Wide-Angle for Zoom/Skype/FaceTime/Teams, PC Mac Laptop Desktop

Here's a webcam for work-from-home (WFH) users which does more than what it costs!This is second webcam I bought after trying out a less expensive $30 Unzano 1080p 30fps unit. Mind you the Unzano did the job and I would give it 5 stars too. However, I landed this 1080p 60fps NexiGo webcam since I was on a lookout for 60fps unit under the $100 price range. I bought this last 9/25/2020 for $69 and it has since dropped to $53 as of this writing.For starters, the quality on this camera is superb as long as you provide enough light. For web conferencing you probably want to light yourself up instead of looking like a vampire. After a lot of YouTube viewing of lighting techniques, I settled for two-point lighting with this camera - a filtered lamp behind and just a tad above and behind the camera and another soft light from lamp to my front left in same plane as first light source. I'm no stickler nor an expert with color profiles since I do not provide web content. So if ever there are any color issues, I have not observed any. My most important requirement is really clarity and response time which this unit excels in.For game streamers, I would think this is still a decent camera. I do not use OBS but I tried it out anyway and OBS recognizes the 60fps setting on this webcam. It plays well with other web conferencing software like Zoom, WebEx, MS Teams, Skype. I also tried it with Viber and Messenger with no issues.Installation was straightforward in Windows 10 and it is recognized as a standard USB device. No software needed to be installed as it is compatible with webcam Windows-provided driver. Note that this is not autofocus webcam. I only took one star away from rating because I think it was asking me to rate something that manufacturer already declared as not being able to do. You will need to manually turn the outer lens ring to focus on your most probable head position and webcam distance. Once that's set, you probably do not normally need to fiddle with it. I included an image with this review taken from the built-in webcam photo option with the webcam located 2 feet from my face and with 2-point lighting I described above.At 2 feet distance (or even nearer) built-in dual mics from Webcam do not pick up sound that well. This is not a big deal for me because I already decided to forego with this and use a lapel mic for my web conferences.I included image for my physically-configured webcam. Webcam is supported from an articulating boom arm and drops the camera just below the top of my monitor. This allows me to still see some of my desktop windows while I am in conference mode. The webcam by itself has the standard up-down-left-right flexibility so you can really fine-tune the position especially if you mount it to boom arm or any desktop stand and couple it to other tripod attachments you have.Since webcam does not have a lens cover, I scavenged some Lego parts and made myself a folding lens cover which I mounted on top of camera using some 3M adhesive tape. I also cobbled together a holder for my cardioid lapel mic which I clip just below the webcam so it does not appear in field-of-view. This configuration with webcam around 1 to 1.5 ft. from my face and with mic level set at around 85% gives me the optimum conferencing settings for both video and audio.I am currently happy with this webcam especially since it does not break the bank as other standard brand webcams like Logitech, Razer or Microsoft. I would highly recommend this webcam for WFH users who are in the market for reasonably-priced webcam that does the job.

I've been playing around with the webcam and it's one hella of an upgrade in comparison to the Nexigo N60. Overall a great camera but it may a bit overkill if you are not planning to use it a lot.Pros*The image quality is amazing*Being able to set the angles with a control*The software for the webcam is very easy to comprehend and the control can do most of those things too!*USB connection; it doesn't need to be connected directly to the pc to work properly. I use a USB tower and there's no lag nor any other problem*Wide lens!! Or well, I can see way more of my room with this new webcam than the previous one I have. And then you just adjust the zoom and angle w the control and your set.*You can mount it on the wall or ceiling and with the control, you can still make the image look good.*If you're not happy with the setting you applied it's easy to back to the default settings by pressing Home.*Mute bottom!! The controller has a mute button and also a camera-blocking function. You can use both at the same time too. The screen will just go black but the webcam will still be on.Cons*I've hopped in calls to test out the built-in mic and I've been told more than once to go back to my normal mic lol*You can't pop it on your monitor like smaller webcams, and if you just put it on your desk it will 1) give a nice view of your double chin and 2)block your view on the monitor (not by a lot but it's there).*Had to put a small floating shelf so I can set the camera there and point it to myself. This also adds the effect that I'm always looking down although I'm looking at my monitors.*On my laptop I can see a nice image, but sometimes the people you are calling won't appreciate the same quality.*Sometimes in calls, when you are already using zoom, the camera won't go up/down/left/right for whatever reason. So you have to unzoom, change the position and then zoom in again.

The media could not be loaded. The NexiGo N990 4K PTZ camera is exactly what it says it is. The camera streams in 4k and at 50 or 60hz. The color quality is good as are the PTZ features. The controls are straightforward and easy to understand. Even the downloadable software that the company has available is no frill and just plain works.The only drawbacks to this camera in my view are:1. It does not have a "follow me" feature that automatically adjusts the pan/tilt to follow the subject through AI. Nexigo offers this camera at a similar price point to the OSBOT tiny camera and is about $100 cheaper than MEVO by Logitech. Both of those cameras do auto follow the subject2. The remote is streamlined and easy to use, but a certain amount of practice is needed to get the camera to adjust to specific tasks. There are presets to make these adjustments quickerAll in all, this camera is truly plug-and-play for the PC (MEVO is not) and it is easy to use.In our church setting this camera will come in handy for streaming worship services and various online meetings. The addition of free OBS software makes this camera easily interface with our song lyric software.
