Kano Webcam - Flexible, Macro, Video and Pictures

This works great; I got it because I needed a camera in a small box to watch experiments, so the macro lens and small size were important. The macro lens works great by sliding the lens cover across the lens. Even without the macro lens, things are still in focus to about 6 inches away. The LED is dim, but it's enough to help the macro mode when up close.The two buttons on the cam are handy - image rotate 180 and turn the LED light on. The resolution and image are just ok, which is expected for a cam this size and low cost. The bendy neck is nice and firm, it stays where you bend it to. It also came with a USB-A to C adapter. The packaging is all cardboard and paper, which is a nice thing for the environment. A+

This is a well built product. The flexible cord and very low profile camera were a perfect for the place I wanted to mount the camera. I had larger webcams but they blocked the display. Macro lens and light are added pluses that I may not use but appreciate anyway. Slide doubles as a security blocker as well. The 1080 quality is good enough. I would pay more and be good with the larger profile for a 2k lens.

I have a GPD Win Mini 2024 Handheld Gaming PC that sometimes I'd like to use for video calls on Zoom or Discord or WhatsApp. This PC doesn't have a camera built into the bezel like most laptops do. This little camera is nearly perfect. The neck is flexible but stiff enough to bend how you need it and stay in place. There is a slide that can cover (block out) the camera or continue to slide to use a macro zoom lense. There is also a light, not bright enough to illuminate my face or anything for a video call, it is used to light up the subject of the macro zoom lense.Two things I wish it had...1. USB-C would have been good.2. A built-in mic would have completed the package.My PC has a built in mic and I'm usually using earbuds for calls so not actually a big deal.It's still the best solution and the resolution is great for video calls.

Cool

Does what it says on the tin. I got this for my Steam Deck as a niche little thing for video calls. It works, but you could potentially get a better webcam than this that'll work on the go with the Deck if you looked hard enough. At the end of the day, it completes the tasks that I set out to do with it, and that's what matters.

This is a great product idea for those that don't want a mic on their webcam. However, because I was sent a used item I'm giving them one star. The webcam works in Windows 10.0.20H2. As you can see from the picture the USB converter has some type of residue on it possibly from when the prior owner applied a sticky to it. So I'm not sure if the webcam itself is also used or just the converter. Other than that the whole product is a fantastic idea and I hope it lasts.

Doesn’t require special drivers or software to work, it’s plus and play and is ideal for laptops and tablets with damaged webcam.My HP tablet webcam stopped working after I dropped it and ordered this webcam because I needed it for online classes.Camera uses USB-A plug and includes Type-C adapter but I would like to have USB C option without adapter. Also, it would be great to have more colors (at least black and silver).

I was looking for a cost-effective solution to improve on video conferencing capabilities. My solution was to run a USB extension cable to the bottom of my monitor where I secured it with double-stick tape. I can now plug in the camera which will extend into the middle of the screen so that when I am on a video call, the other party can see me looking at them rather than looking to the side, up, or down. The perception is much better and the camera is small enough to be unobtrusive if presenting something onscreen. The camera will also reach almost midway into a 13" laptop to accomplish the same thing.This all being said, the one thing I would like to be able to do is have better control of the camera to be able to zoom in and avoid the vertical phone look when using the camera in a vertical direction. Perhaps there is some software that would allow that but I am not aware of any at this time.
