**The $45 Camera Review: A Detailed Analysis**

I recently had the opportunity to review a webcam that costs only $45. While it's not as flashy as some of its competitors in terms of features and build quality, it still managed to impress me in many ways.

Firstly, I was happy with the camera's performance in terms of image quality. The true tones on this cam are slightly more vibrant than my previous camera, which I found to be a pleasant surprise. Additionally, the flip-out design is a nice touch, allowing for easy adjustments when recording from different angles.

However, there were a few areas where the $45 camera fell short. One notable con was its color tone and depth, which I felt didn't quite match up with my 4K camera in terms of true-to-life representation. However, it's worth noting that this is a minor complaint, and overall, I was still happy with the image quality.

Another con was the lack of low-light capabilities, but to be honest, I wasn't expecting too much in this department at such an affordable price point.

Now, let's move on to some of the camera's pros. One major advantage is the super-long USB cable that comes with it, which is a nice surprise considering most brand-name cameras don't come with cables as long as this one.

I was also impressed by how well the camera performed in terms of recording resolution and quality. In fact, I found it to be almost indistinguishable from my 4K camera in certain situations.

Another pro worth mentioning is the little stand that comes with the camera, which allows for easy positioning and angling. This feature is a nice touch, especially for those who want to have their webcam positioned in a specific way.

Lastly, I was also happy with the lens cover, which is easily removable and provides an added layer of privacy.

Overall, while the $45 camera may not be perfect, it's definitely worth considering for anyone looking for a reliable webcam at an affordable price point.

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enokay guys welcome back for another review there's probably a lot of you guys out there wondering how much money do you have to spend on a webcam for live-streaming or just being out there for a video conferencing or whatever the case may be and webcams can be very pricey I remember the day when we saw webcams all the time and they were very expensive and in webcams kind of died off because they were built in laptops and so on and nobody needed a webcam anymore but now webcams are getting extremely popular especially with live streaming YouTube and so on that they're backward of engines and when I say back with a vengence there's some crazy prices out there so guys we're going to compare this forty five dollar webcam against Logitech and my 4k camera keeping everything running in 1080p to be fair this is a 1080p HD webcam I am NOT going to put a 4k camera up against the in 4k mode because that would be completely and not fair so guys sit back relax and let's see what a forty five dollar webcam can really do okay so this is the I'm gonna say I don't know if I can pronounce this right so if you guys are watching this I'm sorry but backed up PC webcam just the HD webcam 1080p and wow I'm actually really impressed here because I've played around a lot of 1080p cameras and this is looking really good I gotta say like I'm at a loss for words I didn't expect this to be so sharp so clean like the zoom on it is actually a nominal uh-huh guys I don't even know what to say here I mean this is my first time using this camera and it blew away all expectations this is a $45 aftermarket camera this is not Logitech assisted this is this other company now coming out I'm absolutely I don't know what to say here hey now I'm seeing disappointment like I knew this camera wasn't a camera for me so this is the Logitech $90 camera here 1080p and I gotta say it looks like crap compared to the other camera I mean there's no comparison here this camera was great when I was doing a small box in a game when I was recording video but you can see the blur here it's just not anywhere near as sharp as this $45 camera I mean there is no comparison and having a very short USB cable is also a complete disaster I don't know what they were thinking when they made this camera and to call it a 1080p camera I just don't know it the lens I mean when you get close it does zoom in beautifully it really does and it looks pretty clear okay guys so this is my 4k camera recording in 1080p so we're keeping all these cameras at 1080p record levels now I'm using this camera as a comparison so this will be the in my opinion should be in piñon the best possible video from a webcam in this mode so just a comparison this is my 4k camera recording in 1080p to be all fair with all cameras in this review to be at the same level and now we're doing the low-light I just want to see how these cameras react in low-light and I got a little bit of light coming off my other screen over here as you can see and I'm gonna back up a bit here and I gotta say like this camera is very clean it's very smooth I'm not having any I mean there's a bit of blur when you move really really fast but I expect that we're all so far I can't find anything that I really have to say that's bad on this I will give comments of course as I move on based on you know playing it back and listening to the sound quality and just that whatever but other than that I'm highly impressed with what we have here I'm gonna turn off now this other spring we're going to be in very low light okay so now we're an extreme low like this is the lighting that you would have if you were playing in the dark and this is exactly what this is this is playing in the duct and I'm still blown away like I'm actually impressed how low light this camera still sees me it still makes out everything nicely I've never seen these light up before like that it's kind of cool so yeah let's let's move on to the next camera so here's where this camera reacts in the low-light it's like again it's not a bad camera it's not a great camera by any means back here get this shine off from the TV over here you can see why I upgraded to my 4k camera clearly now we're going to do the no light Wow I pretty much disappeared also you see the angle the camera angles like being a wide-angle versus this more narrow angle and so on and if I go back I pretty much just follow I mean my ears are showing yeah but I've pretty much lost me clearly I got to be really close like this camera is absolute garbage in no light okay guys so here is my 4k camera in 1080p of course or just want to make that clear again in low-light I have to say this looks absolutely beautiful like I mean here's me back this camera made me so happy but we got a compare here we're looking at let's say $200 worth attack versus that $45 camera that $45 camera is very impressive so that said that is amazing so now let's try this camera in low-light just to see how it competes or no light Wow so I disappeared huh here's where I cannot believe it I'm absolutely blown away right now the $45 camera destroys my expensive cam in no light absolutely destroys it that actually is an eye-opener now I don't play in no light but I do play like this in low-light which this camera does perform well in but the $45 camera has done well in all aspects yeah there's a little bit more true tones on this cam and I flip in hope so but again it was just a comparison but that other camera looks really good I'm just going to go and head off now to the pros and cons and wrap this up well we'll start here with the cons of this little camera okay I'm still thinking hold on doesn't really have any if you compare it to the 4k camera yes it definitely had one con color tone and depth the 4k camera in my opinion you can comment below if you do not believe that but I think the 4k camera playing are recording in 1080p had much better true to life color tones we went over the cons there really isn't anything that would stop you from paying $45 for this webcam what are the pros the pros is this one super super long USB cable that most webcams don't come with at least the logitech equivalent did not and I'll show you how long the Logitech equivalence cord is so guys here's the Logitech c6 1-5 here's the court like seriously this is a major pro a lot of like I said brand-name cameras come with these short cables I don't Microsoft 720p camera that I was using before this the cables a little longer Thank You Microsoft but not a whole lot this little camera definitely has more than enough USB cable length and thick enough well flexible so it doesn't feel cheap the camera actually looks and feels as the equivalency of a Logitech but in my opinion better lands better see my sensor by any means the other pros well it was definitely 1080 it was definitely recording in 1080 the thing looks like it's recording if it's lucky in 720 and it still did not look good I'm not if sold or impressed by this Logitech and I it really hurts me to say it because I paid 79 or $89 for it when I bought it but it was a few years ago but I went in the Best Buy today to confirm and there's still 89 99 on the shelf hopefully they improved it somehow I have no idea how but hopefully they did another pro well one you get this nice little stand which is kind of cool if you just wanted to live somewhere else on your desk and have it angling at you or you didn't have to have on your monitor that is actually pretty cool keep in mind the $45 camera with a tripod now the other thing that was really cool is the lens cover so you just peel off the adhesive stick it on and you have a privacy cover that is amazing at its price level doc just a loan right there Springs hey try me out another massive Pro of course and very disappointing for me is low light and no light tech on this camera in low light yes my 4k and 1080p in my opinion was still sharper and cleaner in no light uh-oh my 4k camera completely failed now it's not as important but there are people that are going to be recording in go light I usually have a screen on on the side showing me the chat room of my livestream so I have some light coming in so in low light my 4k camera performed perfectly weirdly I never tried it in no light until today and to my surprise I'm actually disappointed this little camera here pulled off no light absolutely beautifully and to that I gotta say guys for $45 Canadian how can you go wrong okay guys I hope you liked the review of this webcam I tried to simplify it like I always do any which way I could possibly simplify a review I try to do it that way and the reason why I'm doing that of course is I want to be out there for the average person I don't want to be the whole tech response rates the speeds and just that whatever you see for yourself what the product is doing you either like it or you don't and I'm gonna say guys for $45 oh I blink as I said below if you wish to purchase a webcam and you're looking for a new webcam to do anything from streaming to gaming to just live stream or how many chats with your family and friends overseas or anywhere in the world I recommend this webcam til next time game overokay guys welcome back for another review there's probably a lot of you guys out there
