Camera upgrade!
Ya’ll need better webcams.
And by “ya’ll” we obviously mean 95 percent of the people we meet with via video conference.
Because the ones that come built into the tops of laptop screens are fuzzy and bad, to say nothing of the unflattering up-the-nose angle that seems to be a defining characteristic of this period of history.
Oh well. There are worse problems out there. But most of those problems can’t be solved in five minutes with a ten-dollar daily deal purchase like this.
This little guy is going to give you a plug-and-play setup, plus some nice premium features, including 1080p resolution and 2X digital zoom. There’s even one of those handy privacy covers, which means you can log off (or on) with the confidence that nefarious spies and/or your HR department aren’t peeking in on what you’re up to.
It’ll fit right on top of your laptop monitor if you’re deeply committed to the up-the-nose thing, or on the top of an external display or other high-up, potentially more flattering vantage point.
Video calling isn’t going anywhere. Drop the $10 and upgrade your experience a little bit already.
