Logitech - C930e

I had a Logitech c930e and was pretty disappointed with the quality (which I think is in the same class as the c922). I have an old Pixel android phone and installed DroidCam and the DroidCam driver for OBS. It is ridiculously good quality. If you have a spare Android phone, you could save a ton of money using it as your webcam (or even your daily driver phone). There's another webcam driver for Android called "Iriun webcam" that I've seen recommended too, but I can't speak to the software's quality - I've only tried DroidCam.

yea c930 here, seeing all the ppl in the comments using 300-400$ webcams is so funny to me hah, id love to have a razer kiyo pro one day

Yes, I plug it into the usb port on CalDigit hub. Logitech 930 cam. Works great.

Well I have the Logi C930e but it doesn't work on my Switch 2. If plugged in it only recognizes the microphone but no video.

Yes I noticed a difference - the YouTube video in the post gives you a glimpse, but the Logitech C930e was the clearest of the four I tried (although the C920 was close).

Just played some Mario Kart World multiplayer using CameraPlay with my Logitech C930e - it works just like it did during the Mario Party Jamboree Treehouse stream. You move a circle to the appropriate person for each player and it stays on that spot while you play - my understanding is that there isn’t true face tracking with any camera (meaning it won’t follow your face if you move), official camera or otherwise.

Late last week I shared a [video](https://youtu.be/ZqXMybyjFQM?si=UqioJFr1cPmbWkDA) that showcased the general compatibility of various USB webcams with the Nintendo Switch 2. After reviewing a lot of questions from the reddit thread and the YouTube comments, I thought it would be helpful to put together a deeper dive into the microphone / video quality of various webcams, including the Official Switch 2 Camera and the Hori Piranha Plant Camera. I also included the Logitech C930e, C920, C615, and the Razer Kiyo. Here's the link if you're interested in seeing it for yourself: [https://youtu.be/e2Z5nA02yjg](https://youtu.be/e2Z5nA02yjg) To summarize my findings, the Piranha Plant webcam was easily the worst of the bunch. And the Official Switch 2 camera seemed like the best - it was overall pretty clear and had a VERY wide angle lens compared to the rest. With that said, given the camera use-cases we see on the Switch 2 today, it's hard to justify a new purchase if you already have a decent webcam at home. The C930e and C920 were so close to the official camera that most people probably wouldn't notice. But if you have anything to share about your experience, would love to hear it in the comments! Finally, here's a link to the reddit post I made last week that includes a LOT of helpful comments from the community, detailing which cameras work / don't work: [https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch2/comments/1l3u56w/switch\_2\_usb\_webcam\_test\_results\_all\_four\_webcams/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch2/comments/1l3u56w/switch_2_usb_webcam_test_results_all_four_webcams/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

I've been looking for a thread like this. I've also tried a c930e and Streamcam, both work docked and undocked, and show up as mic input too I've tried the Anker c200, which I had high hopes for as it's a higher resolution, which is good for cropping/zooming... but it doesn't seem to recognise it.

Absolutely the same camera, one is enterprise and has a better "waranty" i belive. That camera is not situable for what you want, is a desktop camera.

If you've got MXA920 money, then you've got real camera money. BUT I get how life in a classroom is, so all I'll say is that while I love the Logi c930 series, it's ancient and the [Anker C200](https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerConf-Microphones-Adjustable-Correction/dp/B09MFMTMPD/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3DUGZFURJ0FXP&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.tUAhxKJagXivZHSqLu7QwkRpIg_O63Ue2Dn63KLxHA0sOpxnGdQ_WPcJrMya5y7YIGhaq3jv8F6XouNJazhSZ0NeJNEe92SvRudcPyqsfGTLdlPf7TJKW7Q8WBttm-Rb5abqmiYbmdjx0kOtOi2QX1p6wg0JGPoQD7J9ePy6mlacvBcmRcrLMTEHwkoNWs1-r115uiuL9Gq-eccaBQNqNxgyxAZiECdS3FAkCih24COfSNtN2_g7dWYsvF5GsoK56o7n4PSxbwZP3vYUI25KKsNOKL7XmIoHhByi64WozS9xXh9pKOd1skYmytQXYBi_pJJFzjUp0Qr59JiAHZOE5D_nPBih8QlEIaSVTi14XG0.0_iu4QfaMnNhzupiOTSm1RYpgFwAMaWeCj275sf9osE&dib_tag=se&keywords=anker+c200&qid=1741227970&s=electronics&sprefix=anker+c200%2Celectronics%2C146&sr=1-3) is a much better camera in my opinion.

My Switch 2 recognize the Logitech 930e as a Webcam, but I only can use it as a microphone. Do I need USB-C Adapter?

Well it is 2025 so I can finally ask for the best one in 2025 I guess :) I have had a Canon Eos R set up but it's taking so much space that i would like something that is close to that, but without me needing a tripod or a camera screwed to my wall. I already have a Razer Key Light (the big one, got it 75% off) and 3 hue lights that I light my back and other side of my face with Happy to use Nvidia Broadcast to ie. zoom into myself I was eyeing these options: 1. Razer Kiyo Pro Ultra * Saw reviews that this one is the closest one can get to the DSLR quality (and that's what im after) 2. Elgato Facecam Pro 3. Alternatively, just a better way to plug my DSLR I was already using: 1. Logitech C920 * My cat chew threw the cable few years ago so i threw it away 2. Razer Kyio Pro * After warranty period was up the device started disconnecting my WHOLE USB BUS randomly, and that would require few seconds to come up. Super super frustrating during calls. That meant my microphones would also just turn off 3. Canon EOS R with Capture card and 35mm lens * Best quality I ever got, i actually got complimented on every call i jumped on with it. But it's so cumbersome to setup... that * If i'd be to do that again i'd get a 22m lens tho 4. Logitech C930e * My current webcam due to the above 5. My iPhone 16 pro via Camo * The battery use is so high that i'd rather stay away ffrom it

I'm still rocking my C930 but with Nvidia broadcast and a good (razer rgb) keylight, the new broadcast version really can make my face pop but if i want that extra sauce i go with my wifes DSLR, got a proper stand, its just a lot of work to setup so i do that for calls with important customers DSLR ALWAYS get me compliments. ALWAYS. People are suprised how good it looks
