It's a good deal. I agree they're marketing it as a different colour. There doesn't appear to be any discernible difference spec-wise to these two models (currently not on sale):mindabsence wrote: ↑ Is this the same FHD webcam that came out at the start of the year just in a different colour now? I suspect it is based on the model name.
I have it:
- Wide angle video is definitely interesting and a bit wide, but I use Zoom and can easily crop the video smaller in the settings by not picking the HD option (which seems to throw the camera into it's full viewing angle mode). Quality is still good when cropped in the "lower" quality setting, noticeably better than colleagues using laptop webcams.
- Audio is pretty good, never gotten any complaints and sounds pretty fair when I do audio tests in applications
- No windows hello as another poster noted - need to go to the more expensive model for that.
Tried a couple similar china-brand webcams from Amazon in this price range prior to buying this one, and the Lenovo kicks their butt in that range.
1. Lenovo 300 FHD Webcam (cloud Grey), $50.99

- I bought this one last November for $38 (discounted from $50, no Rakuten). Good camera, good audio. No complaints. Needed something half-decent to keep laptop lid closed.
2. Lenovo Essential FHD Webcam (Black), $69.99

I ended up picking this one from Amazon (3rd party Canadian seller but free shipping). Price was $60.99, same model number as the black one. I will post the results when it arrives.
