That feeling of being so close yet so far away.
Who would have thought that one gadget can bring us closer despite being oceans apart in reality? Zoom meetings, online classes, seminars, virtual parties, and the like have become the new normal when the pandemic hit and webcams were a big factor in all this.

Have you decided what webcam to get? Here are some things that are worth considering before making your purchase – High Frame Rates (FPS), High Pixel Count, Field of View. Choose a webcam with a good resolution, at least 720p or higher to enjoy the experience and avoid grainy videos. It should also be able to capture at least 30fps so it runs smoothly.
We hope this helps and we’ll see you in the virtual side!
