Don't pay more than $20 for these, your phone can do a better job (don't ask me how, please just Google it).
And yes, continuity camera (using iPhone on Mac as webcam) is incredible. This is what I use. You have full control over blurring background, zoom level and so on. Crisp as brah!

Link to Windows for Samsung Galaxy on Windows devices. Not sure if other Android devices will work as well or not.
I used my Pixel 6 Pro as a webcam last week for the first time and it was super clear. Next step is to find a decent mounting solution…
don't ask me how
How?
Using your phone is SUCH a pain. I do it from time to time for important meetings, but it's always such a ballache. I'd much rather have a dedicated half-decent camera than a great camera I have to keep setting up and taking down.
Then this still isn't the deal for you, the quality is equivalent to a webcam from 10 years ago.
I bought a Razer Kiyo Pro for my partner last year. A great webcam, but limited setting adjustments available on Mac. Unsure if this model is the same (I'd imagine so, but don't know conclusively), just FYI, if someone is considering and is on Mac.
It is a vastly inferior setup and sensor.
Unless you're doing OF, this thing is fine and a lot less hassle than having to rig up a phone and mess around with additional software. All you need with this, just like any camera, is to make sure you've got decent lighting. I've had the OG Kiyo at home for work for 6 years and I still get comments about how sharp it is. I've fiddled with the iPhone as a camera thing before, but if you've got 8+ meetings a day on Teams, etc it's just not worth the hassle, especially given all of the AI based features now built in to Teams/Zoom apps themselves these days.
The Razer Kiyo Pro is worth the extra $$
Coming up as $70 now. Expired?
Have these in the office. Work great. If there is a flicker, just adjust the refresh rate of the camera to 50hz, if it was at 60hz. The mount it comes on is quite adjustable and simple to use.
