"Plucked my logitech c920 directly into the USB-A ports on the dock and it worked instantly"
"I had a few USB webcams laying around so I figured I would do the USB Webcam test for each of them. For the tests I plugged each of them directly into the side of the dock using their regular USB-A connection (no adapters or hubs), and all four worked! ... Logitech C920 ... So far I’ve used the Logitech C920 and C930e with GameChat (chatting with friends) and with CameraPlay within Mario Kart World. They work as they should! Even when using Face Only mode in GameChat it would track my face. Doesn’t matter if the camera is plugged into the dock or directly into the Switch 2 with a USB-A to USB-C adaptor."
"Logitech C920 or AnkerWork C310 are both very good webcams, and neither requires a driver to run."

"It offers amazing image quality"
"decent quality if you give it enough light (and white-balance it!) ... A decent 2 or 3-point lighting setup will make a major difference"
"I personally use a Logitech C920, with proper lighting it can look really good"

"the software likes to reset things constantly ... software/drivers that actually save settings and not reset them every reboot"
"Logitechs software sucks hardcore."
"I hate the Logitech Ghub program though."

"the ONLY reason i switched to the anker webcams is because for some reason, my computer just stopped being able to detect the webcams. it wasn't a webcam issue since they worked on other computers, so it was software-related. ... my ankers didn't crash, the logitech ones did. ... with the logitechs, i tried everything, even reverting to the older webcam software that some people suggested, reverting to numerous drivers/OS checkpoints, etc. nothing worked. something just completely hijacked those usb serial connections to the webcam and wouldn't let go."
"I don't have to manually update C920 settings that Windows forgot to load (which it did frequently hence me finding this work around)."
"My problem with the c920 is that, my settings never save in obs ... nobody else ever mentioned that until I started looking for the problem and people said it was a common issue with it"

"I have a c920 as well and the anker dunks on it without a doubt. Skip the c920 in 2025 imo"
"Only prob with the 920 is 30fps vs 60."
"its super old tech anymore ... its just not the best camera these days ... Its a 13 year old camera"
1HappyGuy777 1.0The c920 I got from Amazon shows Chinese lettering. It goes blurry every so often, but it’s decent.
72c3tppp 1.0I guess it depends on how and where it would stand. Directly on your desk or something elevating it. Regardless, the defacto Logitech C920 for example has a standard thread for tripod attachment. Could mount on one behind the screen or wherever works.
acydlord 1.0I use an Anker Powerconf C200, it works great in low light and does 1080p/60. I only use some LED lights at around 40% brightness with mood lighting and my monitor brightness is set pretty low and my camera quality is great. I have a Logitech Litra Glow key light as well, but I rarely ever use it unless I'm really trying to light something up. Some of the Logitech cameras work fairly well in lower light too, like the C920, C720, and anything in the Brio line.
Anthony_813 1.0Lightning is very very important!! Cannot emphasise how much it can change the quality, even an old c920 can perform well if you have enough lightning :) The one you showed is a good starter cam
ApeInTheShell 1.0Thank god the c920 works that's the one I was hoping would lol
Aromatic-Coffee-3591 1.0I’ve been messing with the new webcam tracking too—Logitech C920/C922 seems to be the go-to for a reason. Decent FOV, solid tracking, and doesn’t break the bank. Just make sure it can hit 60fps if possible—feels way smoother. Heard mixed things about fancy cams like OBSBOT. Cool tech, but not sure VRChat plays nice with all that auto-framing yet.
badpandas123 1.0I use an Elgato Key light and I find the Logitech C920 worse than my Macbook Pro built-in webcam!! I'm not using any additional filters or settings either. I figured it should be at least better than my built-in camera... Which should I return it for?
BloodyThorn 1.0I use a Logitec C920 and a Razer Kiyo Pro for my streams. I use the Kiyo for my face cam because it's a sharper webcam than the c920. Though with my weak PC I have to scale it down a bit because if you have the processor power to drive it, it'll take it. Both are modestly priced cameras.
BlueDolphinCute 1.0had similar issue with c920 for card streams, I upgraded to emeet pixy and the autofocus is way sharper for showing details. not mirrorless level but solid for the price and no capture card needed
Bman_Boogaloo 1.0I don't know all the technical aspects of it, but one of my friends bought one of those cheap "4k" webcams and it looked like dogshit. He returned it and got the c920 and it looks so much better.
