After receiving the Logitech StreamCam Plus and going over the features and seeing the brilliant design and build I knew the StreamCam Plus was built for the Serious Streamer. When you open the box the first impression is quality, that comes with USB-C 3.1 cable along with monitor mount and tripod.
Mounting hardware works exceptionally well, tripod and mounting brackets are well thought out and sturdy. Impressed.
HD 1080P video sans 4K support is a slight let down for the price, however the main audience is streamers so this can be overlooked. The big pro is 60 fps recording, smooth video without stuttering.
The AI-driven facial tracking, smart autofocus, and exposure works very well and ensures that you always look your best. Full HD Vertical video support is way cool, simply turn the camera for enhanced viewing on smartphones.
The built-in microphone sounds good, but it picks up undesirable sounds. Using our Blue Yeti microphone when streaming works amazingly well with the StreamCam Plus.
Good Stuff:
- Picture quality
- 1080p/60fps = videos that pop
- Ease of use
- Lowlight performance
- Sharpness with abundance of detail
- Facial tracking
- Designed for the Media Creators
o Video Conferencing
o Live Stream Gaming
o Video Chatting
Bottomline, the Logitech StreamCam Plus is an amazing camera for streaming with advanced improvements over the previous generation.

--- SETUP ---
The setup of the Logitech StreamCam Plus Webcam is quick and simple. It only uses a non-detachable USB-C plug, so make sure your PC has such a port. Upon plugging it in, you will get prompted to download the software that allows you to customize it to your liking, which is simple to use in and of itself.
--- FEATURES ---
The key feature of this cam is its obvious focus on a gamer, streamer, or blogger user. It can capture full 1080P at 60 fps and face track your position. There’s auto-adjusts focus and exposure so that you can focus on other things such as your stream. This cam can also record vertically, like cellphones, and the included attachments make that an easy task.
--- PERFORMANCE ---
The performance of using this cam on OBS is excellent. I had recently purchased the game Blasphemous and I wanted to stream it with a FaceCam. This was just the incentive I needed to get that going. My viewers expressed how clear they could see my face and how smooth everything looked. Of course, you have to have a stable upstream internet with enough bandwidth to stream at 1080P 60. OBS can help you find that out through tools>autoconfiguration wizard before you buy the cam. OBS had no problem recognizing the camera and I was able to adjust the settings within OBS with ease. I used this in conjunction with the Blue Yeti X mic and there were no conflicts from either product.
--- EXPECTATIONS ---
The product exceeds my expectations. I don’t say that often, but not only is this camera easy to use and very customizable both, with software and with hardware (included tripod, and vertical mount), but it simply looks slick and modern. Compared to my older cam, this looks like a webcam of 2020 and beyond. It has easily replaced my older Logitech cam and this is now my at-home and traveling webcam, as it’s smaller and more compact because of it’s cube shape. Additionally, I love when companies know their target audience and add small conveniences that go a long way to making your product the difference between, “Well, it works,” and, “This is my new favorite!” I appreciate the included strap to secure the cable when traveling, the sturdy tripod with adjustable swivels, and the laptop/monitor attachment with many joints to get the right angle. Additionally, if you want to try XSplit, a 3 month code is included to try it out.
--- VALUE ---
The price for the webcam in terms of value is an investment that you won’t regret as a gamer and/or streamer. Even if you aren’t any of the aforementioned, this makes your image quality impressive for remote meetings.
--- APPROVAL ---
I highly recommend this product for gamers, streamers, or those looking to stream with a higher production value!

I wanted to start off with the bad because I believe this will effect many and should almost be considered a flaw. This camera only supports USB type C and does not come equipped to support USB type A. This is unfortunate because PC makers only just started using USB Type C (yes apple has used it for a few years). A camera this size and quality should have multiple options to connect to your devices. Yes you can get an adapter but with my experience with using a USB adapters and high quality devices such as video and audio there is always delays or errors.
Anyway, to me who uses webcams all the time with different setting and different equipment, I would have liked to see adaptability especially in our current market where we have lighting ports, different USBS, WIFI, and Bluetooth.
In the box you will get a tripod, two mounts (one for the pc and one for the tripod) and the camera with a pre-attached cord (the rope feeling one). The tripod is basic but perfect for what it is intended for. The camera has a super high quality feel and look. You can tell this is not your average Joe. It is larger so those on space saving mode or travel mode might need to look elsewhere but you might not get the same quality of video or build.
The camera is plug and play ready. Once connected Logitech will take care of the process and all you have to do is start the download process. I like not having to go hunt for the software downloads. Once you are all download you are set.
I love the smart auto focus feature. I have used cameras that only have no focus adjustments and ones with auto focus but they are usually lagged and take their time to find your face and adjust. They just cant compare to this camera which tracks your face AI. You stay clear in the picture which is a big help when you want great video quality.
Video is excellent and is a solid 1080p quality. Do I wish it was 4k? Yes, but yet again it might not be worth it as it might sacrifice other things like autofocus or make the webcam even bigger.
Overall, It’s a great solid 1080p camera that I will be using for gaming, streaming with other friends and many other uses. Its simple and excellent other than it needs more connectivity options.

Pros:
- Picture quality is fantastic. It's a dang good camera. 1080p@60fps qualifies as high-end right now.
- the mount has a solid feel, with rubber ends, so it stays pretty well-attached to the top of my monitor (unlike some cheaper logitech cameras)
- doesn't require fancy drivers. Basically plug-n-play with usb-c cable.
cons:
- it's a little bigger than I expected. Kind of looks silly.
- for a little more money, I could have gotten a logitech 4k@90fps, with a privacy flap, smaller (less of an eyesore), and with noise-cancelling dual mics. I would have been happier with that one, even for the additional cost.
- No privacy flap
- mic quality isn't great; my onboard laptop mic does better
- my package came with a small tripod, but it's kind of cheap and isn't very sturdy
- the cable kind of sticks out the back in a way that looks ridiculous

The output is silky smooth at 1080p 60Hz. Coming from a C922, I am pretty delighted to have these specs. The amount of ghosting at 30Hz caused me to keep my settings at 720p 60Hz. Not anymore!
The camera is very good at keeping your face as the focal point of the feed because it actually tracks it throughout. Exposures seem pretty good; I didn’t see a reason to talk negatively about it otherwise. I rarely use the microphone for audio pickup, but I did give it a try. It is decent, but you’re better off grabbing a dedicated mic. I think most content creators/streamers will have their dedicated mics or mics built into their headphones.
The camera can be mounted above the monitor, just like the other Logi webcams, and it also comes with a tripod. I just mount it above my monitor; if I did buy another one, I’d probably use the tripod to point it at my foot pedals or steering wheel when I’m running my G920 or something like that. There is a vertical mount option for vertical videos, but I probably won’t ever use it in that orientation.
I think the most surprising part about this webcam is its choice to go USB-C. To my surprise, I did not have a single USB-C port on my PC. Wow, what a reality check there. What was more surprising was it didn’t come with a USB-A adapter. So if you’re like me, you’ll have to find one yourself.
Which brings me to the topic of USB 3.1 Gen 1. The webcam supports this newer protocol as stated on the box, but it turns out that it is just a rebadging of USB 3.0. I’m pretty sure most of us are at least in 3.0 land. So when you’re looking for an adapter to USB-A, just find the USB 3.0 version and the webcam will work just fine.
Once plugged in, the Logi Capture software will automatically install. You know, it's pretty darn good for video recording with knobs to tweak your video output, but you can’t actually stream right out of it. You have to use OBS or something similar and select 'Logi Capture' as your Video Capture device. I dunno, it’s kinda redundant to me considering you can select the StreamCam itself. If I’m being honest...I’ll probably stick to Streamlabs OBS for both content recording and streaming.
But I didn’t grab this for the software. I wanted Full HD at 60Hz and it delivers.

I've been making videos on online for some time and just recently got into streaming live videos on my computer( doing unboxings and movie reviews, but I've been using my phone or webcam on my PC and that has been hit or miss, for the most part. Since getting this Streamcam, things have just gotten super easy. It's pretty much a plug and play setup. Extremely easy to set up s long as you have the minimal PC requirements to do so. I really love the included tripod attachment. It makes it so I can put the cam just about anywhere and stream from different angles. You can stream in portrait or landscape modes. It has facial recognition and autofocus to keep you in the shot at any given time. It's got an embedded mic, just incase you don't already have an external mic. This thing is super cool. I'm really happy with it. I look forward to putting out more content online while using it. It's awesome and affordable. Put it in your cart. You wont regret it. As I tend to do on most of my reviews, here's a link to my full online review. Enjoy.

The Logitech StreamCam Plus is hands down the best webcam I’ve ever owned. I bought to replace an older Logitech webcam for making web dev tutorial videos and attending meetings.
The video quality is incredible, especially in low light situations which is where most webcams fail. I’ve been so used to grainy video if the lightning wasn’t good enough, but not with the StreamCam Plus! It’s not going to magically fix your bad lighting, but it will show a true-to-life video just as crisp as with good lighting... just darker.
I will say that $170 seems a little steep for a webcam. For that price, I would have liked to see them incorporate a mini ring light or diffused light around the face to help get more light on the subject. I also would have liked to see 4K max resolution, instead of 1080p. But since it’s so much better than the others out there, I’m still glad that I went for it.
The only one that is better is the Logitech BRIO (also called Logitech 4K) due to the better resolution and detachable cable for multiple connection types and cable lengths but that also has a higher price tag and can’t do vertical video, which is becoming more necessary in social media.
Pros:
- Great picture quality, even in less than ideal lighting
- Removable mount with two mounting options (Screen top and 1/4 inch standard camera mount)
- Turns 90 degrees for portrait or landscape mode
- USB-C cable for modern laptops
- Great quality microphone, sounds perfect on recordings
- Logi Capture software to fine-tune the picture, manage inputs for streaming/recording and apply chromakey.
Cons:
- USB-C only, no USB Type-A (standard USB) adapter.
- Attached cable, would have been good to have a USB-C port and detachable cable for different cable lengths and replacement cables the same way that the BRIO does.
- High price for no 4K
Overall, I highly recommend this camera

This Webcam is smart through the AI to track your face, HD crystal clear, and easy to setup. Logitech has generously equipped it with a tripod stand for standing up mode and mounting clip. In my case, I have used the tripod stand because my monitor is curved and kind of being jiggled when mounted, but tripod saved me! in terms of quality, the camera is crystal clear embedded into a plate is covered with cloth to give high-quality finish and look. Cam offers vertical video in which you can rotate the camera 90 to switch to portrait mode, an option to choose recording source, broadcast to media and all of that via Logitech Capture software. Software is simple to use and has a friendly interface, in addition, to control sound and mic and customize aspect ration and recording resolution.

I’ve had this camera about a day or two. I actually cancelled my amazon order and got it from Best Buy because it was available same day pickup. I’m really enjoying it. The first thing I did was immediately do a side by side in OBS with my C920 and this one and the StreamCam is a massive improvement in picture quality. The fact that it has a smaller FOV than the Brio is a little disappointing, but it was something that wasn’t a deal breaker for me. The focus is a much needed upgrade over previous models and the software was relatively easy to use prior to opening the camera up in OBS. It should probably be about 20-30 dollars cheaper, but it’s definitely a big upgrade from the cheaper and older counterparts.

I recently purchased the Elgato camera, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations in every aspect.
Image Quality:
The image quality of the Elgato camera is outstanding. Whether I'm using it for video calls, live streaming, or content creation, the clarity and sharpness of the footage are remarkable. It truly elevates the overall production value of my content.
Ease of Use:
Setting up the Elgato camera was a breeze. The plug-and-play functionality made the initial setup process straightforward, and the intuitive interface allowed me to customize settings effortlessly. It's perfect for both beginners and experienced users.
Versatility:
One of the standout features of the Elgato camera is its versatility. I love that it can be easily mounted on a tripod or attached to a monitor, giving me flexibility in various recording setups. Additionally, the camera's adjustable angles make it perfect for capturing the perfect shot every time.
Low Light Performance:
Even in low-light conditions, the Elgato camera shines. The advanced sensor technology ensures that my videos remain clear and well-lit, even in dimly lit environments. This has been a game-changer for me, as I no longer have to worry about the lighting setup for my recordings.
Real-Time Monitoring:
The real-time monitoring feature is a game-changer for live streaming and content creation. Being able to see how I look on camera in real-time has improved the overall quality of my content significantly.

This streamcam is super nice. I use it mostly in discord (I haven’t built up the courage to stream on Twitch or anything yet). I thought it was time to get my own and stop stealing my brother’s webcam and I think this is one of the best purchases in terms of streaming. It autofocuses and can pick up images in the dark. The imaging was clear and very comparable to using an expensive Canon camera to stream. A cool feature about it was the rotatable camera so it not only stream horizontal, but it can also stream vertical. It also matches my white setup which is a plus. The set up was pretty easy & was another device I could control in the Logitech GHub. It was a lot bigger than I thought it was, but the size did not matter.
The only reason for 4 stars was I didn’t realize it was a USB-C connection and it didn’t have a removable wire so I can change it out for another. I had to buy an adapter off Amazon to turn USB-C to USB-A which meant I had to wait another 3-days until I was able to actually use it. If I were to use it on a laptop, I would have had no problems and this would have been a 5-star review.

The StreamCam Plus is sensational - well done Logi

This is a versatile, high quality camera that may very well be the new baseline standard for streaming video content in 2020.
Quite impressed in the first week of use, here's why:
The Auto focus & Auto framing functionality is absolutely spectacular. I've tried to trick the camera in to focusing on my hands or an object, and it does a remarkable job of keeping the subjects face in focus. You can create different presets to change to focus mode if you prefer it to be fixed as well or to switch from streaming to meeting, etc.
1080p @ 60 fps makes for smooth & balanced production and beyond professional video quality...recorded or streamed live (I have only used it to go live on YouTube, and for a few Microsoft Teams meetings).
Vertical video is a neat feature too. It seems with mobile content being such a huge thing, this format is growing more popular by the day.
The camera has a built-in auto sensing switch to orient the image upright no matter which way you flip it.
Built in mic - wow! Normally I'm gaming with my headset on which has a Blue Vo!ce microphone, but during a Teams meeting I used this camera video and switched to the built in StreamCam Plus mic. If you need to pick up audio from multiple sources, voices, etc, this stereo or mono mic will most certainly surprise you. I don't want to call it that special conference room quality name - but it's REALLY close, just not as sensitive.
Comes included with a mini-tripod that is great for positioning on your desktop or other areas, as well as a clip for monitor mounting that is sturdy and can be used in a variety of ways.
Also nice to a product using USB-C. Immediately upon plugging in to my Windows 10 Pro gaming rig, I was presented with a convenient prompt to download the Logitech Capture software.
The software itself is great and does everything you need to present exceptional video. If I had to suggest something, it would be to maybe incorporate the capture software into the Logitech G Hub. Most of us already have that installed, and it would be nice to have everything in one spot.
I also used the XSplit VCam that came as a trial and am having endless fun using the StreamCam Plus to superimpose me in to random video backgrounds from youtube, websites, or just image stills. I already used google earth to pull up my bus stop from years ago, and made a Snapchat for my old buddies that was an absolute hit. We will definitely be using this for our Christmas cards to put our family somewhere creative and imaginative!

I got this for the rare occasion that I'll need to use a webcam for class or work meetings, but it is a really impressive product compared to its competition. I got is discounted, but I would've expected a higher price for such an amazing webcam. I love the ability to tinker with the video settings and adjust the quality, and a 1080p 60fps webcam is more than enough for any streamer, white-collar worker, or student.
Wow, thank you for such a glowing review of the StreamCam Plus! We're thrilled to hear it exceeded your expectations. Your feedback about the video quality and features is incredibly valuable to us. We appreciate you sharing your experience!

Quality Versatile Product

I am really enjoying this new StreamCam Plus by Logitech. I've been using it in multiple applications to test its versatility. The main use is for streaming through Twitch since I enjoy gaming filtering/overlay through Streamlabs OBS. The 1080P along with the 60 FPS creates seamless video production for both gaming and business use. Doing videos for work projects has become much easier as well and also has a pretty decent mic pickup. I still use the Blue Yetti Mic for really finetuning the audio though, but not bad for an all in one stand-alone. It comes with a small tripod as well as mounts that you can set on any TV or monitor that you might own. I would definitely recommend this product if shopping for a new Stream Cam!

Purchased this product on March 19th after a store rep informed me that this would be compatible with the Insignia 24" F20 Series LED HD Smart Fire TV that I had purchased from this store back in December. Intended on using it to stream video chat for work and found out that it is not compatible.
This webcam is plug and play and worked fine on other devices. Lightweight, comes in small packaging and had a few accessories, like a mini tripod stand, for example.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Logitech StreamCam Plus. We appreciate you detailing its features and letting us know about the incompatibility issue with your Insignia Fire TV, despite the store representative's advice.

I can't give a technical review... but I can say that as a complete web meeting/ equipment ignoramus - this product worked great and was worth the extra money. I purchased a cheaper one on line that had poor video quality and sound kept turning on and off... The Logitech Stream Cam was easy to set up (even for me), video quality is great... sound as well. The only setback was needing the USB C connection port to my computer. I had to run back to Best Buy and purchase an adaptor separately.

The Logitech StreamCam Plus is a nice aesthetic update but that is as far as I will say. Using others in their lineup, I just cannot see why they released this camera. After all these years, this is what is released from Team Logitech? I would expect a superior upgrade in the camera department and better lowlight performance for all this time. Cell phone cameras are smaller and offer better quality which is a head-scratcher for me. Something of this sheer size should perform better in my opinion. Now… let's get to the real things.
Design and Build.
Logitech has been doing design well over the past few years and build quality is superb. It is made of gray highly durable plastic with a beautiful touch of fabric to blend with many other modern design languages in home devices today. Aesthetically, I like the modern design and build Logitech has put together here and the materials used follow suit with Apple, Google, and other company's use of fabric to spruce things up. It is designed to be used in portrait mode or landscape mode out of the box and provides a tripod for other options. Choosing to lock in 78° NOT 90° as field of view is a BIG FAIL for this. Streamers want a wide shot not a close-up.
Ease of Use.
Seamless and easy setup is the main takeaway for me here. I plug it in and it did everything else in less than 10 minutes. Software was loaded and I was ready to start recording. You can setup all the basics for streaming and very easy to use. It is a good starter kit software for a beginner streamer. Others will use OBS and other software which works fine with this camera. It focuses well and does a great job of tracking. The onboard audio mic is a hair above average, but a streamer will probably own a Blue mic to start anyways. Blue mics are great and make a good solid setup for any beginner out there.
Functionality.
This thing can get the job done in the streaming department with 60fps and also 50fps and 24fps as options to shoot 1080p. The flexibility of portrait and landscape modes is cool BUT, the USB-C is really not needed for webcams that only shoot 1080p with this quality. Many users will need an adapter but this is for newer machines I am guessing? There is the option to mount the webcam as a traditional monitor mount that also can become a flat platform if needed. You can also use the included tripod to have options when composing your shots. I am befuddled by the inclusion of optical image stabilization (OIS) since a streamer isn't walking around with their webcam, they are probably seated and talking or playing games. It makes the functionality talk nonetheless.
Software.
The Logitech Capture software automatically installed using my Windows 10 PC. A nice surprise for sure! I just plugged it in and in a few minutes it was up and running after a few clicks. There are some customizations you can make, but NOTHING like I would like. There isn't much finetuning afforded for this camera but it is manageable.
Overall it is a good webcam but I am disappointed at the overall package delivered being that they've only as recently as three years ago came out with the webcam Brio and 7 years since the C930. It does not perform like a piece of tech that has a 7 year lead on research and development and really feels like a C930 with better cleaner glass in front of the sensor. I would recommend a C930 over this first if you are starting out. Using USB-C is a limiting choice, image quality isn't that much better, and FOV is NOT what we want. Color is off and showing more reddish and I am not a fan of the color science of this sensor. I really don't know who is streaming and asking for a camera like this. NO-GO for me!

Bought this camera to add to my storm Spotter setup. Setup was super easy. Plug is a USB C plugs right into computer. Used the included software to setup image and orientation. Once it was all setup I ran it through WebEx and bloadcast live to the other viewers what I am seeing. The picture is really clear. The only issue I have had so far is at night. I can't get the image to adjust to the headlights and streetlights. Other than that is works.
