"I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards."
"Been using them for about four years working out in my gym, and cycling daily (45+ minutes on a bicycle outdoors)."
"They last absolutely forever (I know 1980s models still in daily use)"

"The CCA trio and the Vader Balanced are similarly tuned, but both are one of the best iems under 30 usd."
"I downgraded from the meet 2 to se since I was only using 1080p and am happy with my choice! ... If you’re planning on just doing 1080p I’d save the cash and go meet se."
"JLab go sport + FTW. ... I have the same sweaty ear issue and the beats fall out of my head. ... The jlab are cheap and even they stay in. (Because they hook over your ear)"

"have easily the best mic of any gaming headset (I recorded a sung vocal track into Pro Tools with it yesterday)"
"good mic quality"
"the Cloud II's microphone sounded the best, the clearer on every single audio device I've tested. I'm still recovering from that one to be honest. It was a surprise that went against everything I've seen on reviews so I'd like to really underline that one because most people thing the Cloud II microphone isn't good. Well, these are the HP version so maybe the reworked HP version actually improved the microphone. ... It's one of the best microphones i've used. Your voice sounds crisp and clear even if you're speaking lower."

"I've been using my c920 Logitech for 10 years now and it still works as well as on day 1"
"I made it all the way to partner with a webcam, so obviously my community doesn’t mind it"
"Love the C920, have bought several and they have all done me great ... Logitech C920 series is solid and I've been championing it for like 10 years ... there's a reason it has been the defacto main go-to webcam for so many years"

"May auto focus tsaka auto light correction na siya kaya sulit na sulit."
"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 have the Logitech c920 and it doesn’t respond well to the V4l2-ctl commands in Crowsnest. ... Sometimes I can get them to work, but they’re often ignored. ... Exactly. Who wants to SSH into their RPi to set their focus and exposure before every print? Not me. ... It’s an annoying aspect of the c920 and an extra hassle I’m trying to help the OP avoid. ... If you don’t mind a fuzzy and over- or under-exposed subject then it’s a non-issue. ... For a basic stream to view progress it might work just fine. But why spend $50 on a camera that requires extra work to focus. ... I recommend something you can set via the config file on Crowsnest."
"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."
"Yeah they reset every fucking time, very, very annoying ... It wasn't. It still kept the auto focus on, auto white balance etc all the annoying crap."

"1080/30 is very sloggy at this point, I genuinely don't understand why people are recommending this as if 1080/30 is acceptable nowadays. ... they are unfortunately severely outdated now. ... it's just a bit awkward in 2025. ... if you care for any type of performance then it's outdated at this point."
"It's USB2 only, no 4k, no 60fps at highest resolutions though."
"I have a c920 as well and the anker dunks on it without a doubt. Skip the c920 in 2025 imo"

"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"

"Adamantly here to say the C920 is absolutely garbage. ... Unless you’re in the most perfect of rooms, the white balance and exposure of this webcam is truly awful and you’ll need a white index card to calibrate it constantly."
"One thing you definitely will have to leave unchecked is the Low Light Compensation option under camera control. It will be like night and day. When on, the camera looks horrible, bleached and you move in slow motion."
"it has pretty bad reaction to changing lighting in a room"

Yeah you can plug into the USB A ports on the dock. I tested my c920e through the dock and it works as well.
r/NintendoSwitch • Happy to report that my non-official USB-C camera works with the Nintendo Switch 2! ->You don’t need an adapter. Plugging straight into the dock’s USB A ports work. Tested my c920e and the system recognized it right away.
r/NintendoSwitch • Happy to report that my non-official USB-C camera works with the Nintendo Switch 2! ->Elgato Facecam Neo, Razer Kiyo, if you want a built-in light or Logitech c920 series. Take your pick, all for less $100 usd typically
r/streaming • Best webcam under 150$? (I want the best quality) ->Look into the nexigo series, super affordable great quality, I personally have a nexigo N60 cam, it replaced the c920 cam I bought under advice and ended up hating. If you’d like a comparison my twitch name is the same as this username and my recent vods show me using both the nexigo N60 (facecam) + the c920 as my desk cam to see for yourself and make an informed decision (: best of luck on your cam journey!
r/Twitch • Cheap webcam suggestions for the best lighting? ->Anything from the above list. I got a Logitech C920e from Amazon for $60 and same day delivery. Was able to integrate it into my home theater with minimal changes.
r/NintendoSwitch2 • Tested USB Cameras with Switch 2 Master List ->I have a Logitech 920 and a Sony ZVe10 both connected via usb , work fine.
r/macmini • Has anyone made a webcam work on Mac mini? I tried with hub, connector etc but it does not detect the webcam. Which connector and webcam works? ->OK. I've been using a C920e and I've seen some people complaining about the 920. I thought it was fine, but it's making me nervous that it's not fine. I'm not sensitive to 60 fps vs 30 or whatever. So, it's hard for me to tell if it's an issue.
r/streaming • Good webcam to get under 100$? ->I'm having nothing but problems with my C920X. Freezes with Instant Messenger (FB) and all the tests I run do the same thing. Seems like it's a driver issue. Not sure I'd recommend it...in fact I'm sending mine back to Amazon.
r/obs • Guys can you recommend me a Webcam not very expensive and with good resolution ? ->I have to disagree. Just installed my new Logitech C920X and it freezes on every test and on Instant Messenger. Pretty sure it's a driver issue. Running Win 10. Not what I expected from Logitech...should be a simple plug and play.
r/obs • Guys can you recommend me a Webcam not very expensive and with good resolution ? ->I use a Logitech C-925e camera to stream directly from my Xbox and don’t have any issues, I wish I had a Logitech brio though for better quality but the one I have isn’t bad.
r/Twitch • Webcam when streaming from console ->Logitech c920 is the gold-standard starter cam. 1080p30, decent quality if you give it enough light (and white-balance it!). To stress, make sure you have planned your lighting setup, and if you have not, spend a bit of time watching at least basic lighting-for-videography tutorials on YouTube. A decent 2 or 3-point lighting setup will make a major difference, even if it's just bowl-reflector worklights with high-CRI bulbs and cheap diffuser socks from Amazon. Stepping up from there on the cam goes to the realm of the Elgato Facecam series, in the $250 range. (Which also need good lighting to give best results.)
r/Twitch • guys whats the best price to performance webcam for 1080p 30fps under 100 usd ->Does anybody have any recommendations for an actual webcam that won't have a terrible echo? I know you can use a separate mic or headphones or whatever, but I want to be able to sit down on my computer and casually chat with people. I have the logitech 920 (I think) and it has a terrible echo.
r/macmini • What camera are ya'll using for facetime? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
