- Resolution
- 1080p at 30 fps
Why it ranks here. The most reviewed webcam on the internet and the default answer in every which-webcam thread since 2012: sharp 1080p, plug it in and it works, no drivers, no app. A year-long owner says it is worth it more than dearer premium webcams, and the built-in microphone works.
It is capped at 30 frames, so fast motion shows ghosting and stutter, and serious streamers replace the mic. The box has no instructions. Its other problem is popularity: whenever demand spikes, sellers double or triple the price, so buy it at the normal price and never at the inflated one.
What owners like
- Plug and play
- Sharp 1080p
- Thirteen years as the default
What owners complain about
- 30 frames only
- Basic mic
- Price gouging when stock runs short
“dude, super informative video 💝 i've been running the C920 for about a year now, and was looking for a solution to turning the camera 45 degrees when my monitor is sitting at 90 degrees, but awesome video bud 🙏 for anyone second guessing grabbing a c920, it's definitely worth it. moreso than more expensive 'premium' webcams on the market IMO” — YouTube comment · FreshAppleSlices · 2019-02-26

There aren't any instructions that came with my Logitech C920s. So thanks a lot for this video.

I bought one, it's a great camera and the built in Microphone works for both videos and for audio.

i mean, i see why you would be disappointed in the lack of sound quality difference between the 2 models, but anyone who is actually wanting high quality sound from the mic is going to buy a separate microphone anyway. putting that aside, i really appreciate this review. very thorough in pointing the features, pros & cons, as well as how to set things up.

Amazon is price gouging now. I thought that was against the law. I got a new one on eBay but still paid more than $100. Great video. Thanks much!

Surprised the C920 isn't on here.

On the other hand, I just looked up a Youtube review for the Logitech C510, a 720p camera, and... yeah, the Lenovo looks like hot garbage in comparison. I still have some open orders for a Logitech C920S and I'm not cancelling those until the return window for the Lenovo closes.

That’s the one I want but I’m not paying over $200 for one on eBay cause those aholes are just price gouging us because they aren’t available right now. Someone is selling a bunch of the C920s out of Jacksonville FL for $140 which is 2x the price cause those retail for $70

I refreshed Target dot com daily until my top choice, the Logitech c920s, showed up in stock. I ordered for pickup but I guess they couldn’t find it in the back so they cancelled it. So I went in and braved the pandemic and the electronics guy was nice enough to go to the back and find it for me.

Just got my c920s and use the capture software. I cannot find a setting to turn on the right built in mike. Only the left one works. The setting in the soft ware shows it is on but it is not.

I just gor the "base" model yesterday 25th sep 2022 for 35 quid. It's decent for the price even in 2022. Still 80 quid on amazon. Cheers for the vid dude.

The ghosting and stutter makes it looks <30fps
-
Do you carry a Logitech c920 and for its regular price? Every c920 I see listed on amazon is like 180+ and every seller has an excuse to why they’re selling it way over priced 😂😂😂

Hey, I'd go with the logitech c920, sharp HD image and wide camera angel + a good built in mic!
