Webcam: Elgato Facecam Neo
Rating: Poor (2 out of 5)
Date:
Advantages of the webcam:
None that I can see.
Disadvantages of the webcam:
Awful contrast and lighting.
Author’s comment:
It's unusable. I bought this as a replacement for the Logi Brio - that's a 4K webcam which sounds great, but 1080p is more practical. Unfortunately, this Elgato webcam cannot be used unless you're frontlit. Side-lighting and backlighting make it unusable.
