The Ugreen ones look better better. Way better in low light, whereas kmart cam kind of faceplants without perfect light.
grb replied to mememe123 on Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p V2 Webcam $29.99 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Creative Labs via Amazon AU
Sorry I can't help much with the audio. It works. Though I doubt it would be anything better than "passable". I did one test with the cam's…
grb replied to mememe123 on Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p V2 Webcam $29.99 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Creative Labs via Amazon AU
It's fine for $20. I wouldn't want to spend much more for it though.. See my post below.

I got the kmart one for if I'm in a pinch. It's OK; bad in low light and pretty noisy, but definitely usable. And only 30fps at higher…

grb replied to BillyCool on 60-90% off (e.g. Audio Technica ATHM50X $89.85) + Shipping @ The School Locker
Samesies. Support was good but they didn't listen when I said it was click & collect so I got free shipping.
I should have read comments before going through checkout, sending money, then site freezing and no confirmation (item still in shopping…
grb replied to CyberMurning on Sony SRS-XB100H Bluetooth Speaker $69 (Was $99) + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi, Amazon, Officeworks, Sony, MYER
No, the XB13 was the previous version (I think). I assume the "H" at the end is just a code for the colour.
grb replied to CyberMurning on Sony SRS-XB100H Bluetooth Speaker $69 (Was $99) + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi, Amazon, Officeworks, Sony, MYER
Yes, the microphone is pretty good. Apparently it's one of the bigger upgrades from the previous version. It will still have the regular…

Chips (along with many other items) at the big supermarkets are on "sale" so often their "original" price is a insulting. Actually I'm…

I am ashamed I immediately ordered the Zelda light thingy.
This is not the first gen, I assume this is the Duet 3. The original has a mediatek helio p60 (?) SoC and this one has a Snapdragon 7C Gen…
