A good webcam?

Laptop with a built in webcam : good or not so good?

  • Hi. My pc is 5 years old and it's getting very slow lately. ( windows vista, laptop) I'm thinking of buying a new one and searched a bunch of latest pc's on the net. Surprisingly, nearly every laptop has a built-in webcam today it seems. Is it better than a regular webcam? The problem is, i normally don't use webcam when I'm chatting with my friends on messenger. Is there any chance that it suddenly starts working if i misclick the webcam button when talking to my friend on messenger and my face would appear on my friend's monitor? thanks in advance.

  • Answer:

    Webcam quality on laptops is generally about the same as a lower-end cell phone. A dedicated webcam is always better. The answer to your last question is yes, but if you're careful, that shouldn't happen. Of course, a piece of electrical tape over your webcam also works if you don't want to use it.
