It’s also an autofocus camera, which helps justify its higher price. The C920e reportedly offers lighting and color controls that the C920s does not, as well.īoth cameras use a narrower 78.5-degree viewing angle, which focuses on your face better than webcams that use a 90-degree viewing angle. Confused about whether you should buy the C920e or the C920s? Logitech describes the C920e as a business camera, and the C920s as the consumer version-they’re otherwise identical, save that the C920e has a three-year warranty versus a two-year warranty, while costing the same. The 1080p Logitech C920e webcam is the most recent version of the venerable Logitech C920, probably the most iconic webcam of the last few years. There’s an upgraded C300 model for an additional $40, but we think this is a better deal. For all this, and for about $60? That’s a solid deal. Reviewers have some concerns about the color accuracy, but the low-light performance makes up for it-you shouldn’t need a ring light. You can even adjust the mic pickup to focus on you, versus omnidirectionally. The PowerConf C200 includes noise-cancelling mics and an integrated privacy shutter, which turns off the whole device-a plus, if you’re concerned about a bad guy somehow hacking your mic and listening to your conversations with your family, boss, and pets. However, you will need Anker’s software to take full advantage of all the webcam’s features-e.g, though the USB-A cable makes this a plug-and-play device, the software is necessary to adjust the field-of-view function. Anker provides Windows drivers, so you don’t need to worry about that. Second, this webcam offers an adjustable field of view (65, 78, and 95 degrees) meaning that you can manually crop out portions of the background you don’t want to be visible.įor some reason, Amazon markets this as a “Mac” webcam. First off, Anker’s PowerConf C200 provides an upgraded 1440p resolution, better than 1080p to make you look clearer and more professional.

We’ve replaced the Logitech C920e as our best webcam pick if only because Anker simply offers so much more for less.
