YoloCam S3

Thanks!! I’m going to choose the YoloCam S3 over the OBSBOT Tiny after going through both spec sheets and comparing them side by side. My use case is mostly online meetings and recordings, seated at a desk. I’m on a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 (Windows 11), and my audio is already sorted with a RØDE PodMic USB and Etymotic ER2-XR IEMs via the Apple USB-C to 3.5 mm adapter. So the Tiny’s built-in mics and tracking don’t add value for me. On specs alone, I think image quality is essentially on par. For my setup, the S3 wins because it’s fixed, predictable, has no moving parts, and offers stronger manual image and colour control for a clean, consistent “set-and-forget” look. Tiny makes sense if you move around or need PTZ/tracking. For desk-based meetings and recordings, the S3 is the cleaner choice.

YoloCam S3 is the most well-balanced webcam across all aspects.

Lots of posts recently enquiring about webcams! I recently got a Yolocam s3 (left side) and I am loving it - thought id share a comparison image. Here it is in contrast with my Logitech MX Brio - these my original settings for my brio but you can see the difference in clarity/depth. It has a real DSLR feel and records videos beautifully. My content sales on MV/LF + OF have really improved since using it. The cons are: it has a bit of a freak out if you have lots of apps that use the camera at the same time and if you are multistreaming you need to use OBS or it wont work. The USB port is a bit flimsy too. Lots of reviews about the autofocus being a bit slow but you can turn it off (I personally love it as it gives that blurred background look!) The MX Brio is a great webcam too - its really simple to use, and has a bit of an airbrushed feel which is quite forgiving !

It does not unfortunately no - I had to play around with the sharpening function a hell of a lot lol

I'm going to sound a little like a shill but I recently got the YOLOLIV YoloCam S3, and it beats all of the other webcam's in the comment section by a LONG shot! The sensor is larger than the others meaning its able to receive more light in low light environments. The image is really well balanced and has great color accuracy. I came from a Razer Kiyo Pro and I hated using the razer software, the Yololiv software only needed for initial setup and then I haven't had to use it since, it also doesn't run in the background like razer software. If you want to get him a webcam that will last him a long time until he decides he wants to invest in a dedicated camera setup "which may be overkill for small streamer", the S3 is and will be my go-to webcam in 2026. Update: I looked up the Razer Kiyo Pro Ultra and it has a 1/1.2″ sensor vs the S3 which has a 1/1.28" sensor. It's also $100 cheaper than the Razer :)

Hi everyone, I’ve been looking into webcams recently and honestly spent way too much time researching and comparing different options for streaming and video calls. Figured I might as well make a list in case it helps someone else here. I personally ended up trying the YoloLiv YoloCam S3 recently and was surprised by the quality jump compared to a built-in laptop webcam, but I also looked into quite a few other options before deciding. I know lists like this never match everyone’s opinion, so feel free to disagree or add better suggestions. Also some of these might be overkill depending on your setup. \*\*Best Budget Webcams (< $60)\*\* Logitech Brio 101 – 1080p webcam with simple plug-and-play setup and decent image quality for basic streaming or calls.

Are dedicated webcams good enough now, or are most people still sticking with mirrorless / DSLR cameras?

Yolocam S3 is the best as far as image quality, by a decent margin. If you want something that follows you if you move around a lot, obsbot

Imo, the Yolocam S3 is the best webcam on the market at the moment. Great autofocus, solid colors out of the box with the ability to change anything you want about them with their software.

I want to start this by saying that Yololiv was kind enough to send me an S3 for free so I can cover it and make a review on my youtube channel. I will admit I was skeptical at first because I've had companies reach out and want to sent me cameras before - they've always been 'just ok'. I was working with a Razer Kiyo Pro Ultra for the last year and a half, so to be blunt I was used to the ultra sharp 4k it gave me and refused to move on to anything else. So when I got the S3 and plugged it in to OBS, I had to double check to make sure I didn't set it to use my Razer. Not only is the S3 sharp, but the color science out of the box is nearly how I'd adjust the colors myself. all I had to tweak was the white balance a bit and I was set. The Auto Focus system is incredibly quick, nearly as fast as my main shooter - Sony A7iv. While I love working with my Sony for A-roll shots, I often just use my streaming setup to make videos just because I don't want to be bothered with setting up my camera. So having a high quality 4k webcam is essential. With that said, the S3 is the BEST camera I have used in that regard. Sharp visuals, lighting fast AF, solid color science, and a team full of people that not only listen to feedback, but implement functions that users ask for. For the time being, it's the only webcam I'll tell people they should get.

Can't recommend the Yolocam S3 enough! it's legit the only camera I tell people about these days lol

Yolocam S3 and it's not even close.

I'll put it to you this way - YoloLiv, the company that makes the S3, reached out to me a few months ago to collab on a video. The S3 impressed me so much I swapped it out permanently from my Razer Kiyo Pro Ultra. And if you know about the Razer, you KNOW how good of a webcam that is. The S3 has better color science and WAY BETTER auto focus. can't stress enough how night and day the AF is. Also the YoloLive Compose App, the software you use to control/set up the camera, is the best camera software I have used to date. And this is coming from someone that has collaborated with Elgato as well. for $200 you're getting one heck of a cam with that S3.
