Title: Great product, would recommend, but the USBC cable is too short
Review: Good product, easy to use, excellent picture quality and mic quality. Speakers are good, but my separate logi are better. USBC cable which it shipped with is too short (only 1m), which means if you have a separate PC tower below your desk, it won’t reach your USBC input. Requested Anker send me a 1.5m cable, which they did immediately free of charge. Excellent customer service. Remember this device also uses a separate power supply input – it won’t draw power directly from your pc, so despite the marketing, there are still a few cables you’ll have to deal with.

Title: Does the job well without fuss
Review: The light is not something I use, it’s not v useful imo, and turning it on/off is too fiddly. But sound quality is great and camera works v well too.

Title: Superb all in one package
Review: TLDR; Really good all in one package, but a little expensive right now.A few ‘unknowns’ I had before purchase:Are 2 USB C connections really needed? Yes – one is for power, the other is for data. I am using a USB hub for the power & it works just fine.How good are the speakers and mic? Will they be OK for video conferencing? Both the mic(s) and speakers have been very good. No complaints on mic quality during meetings & the speakers are much better than most built in laptop / monitor offerings.How good is the light? Not very! In low light conditions it does add a little something.How’s the camera, it’s not even 4k?! Perfectly adequate for online meetings. If you looking to use for streaming or Vlogs you can probably find a better quality camera elsewhere, but you’re not really the target audience for this camera. Team, Zoom etc are usually limited to 1080p anyway.What’s the Ankerworks software like? Running on a Mac, not bad at all. It’s already been updated a couple of times. Options are limited but I’m not the type of person to spend hours dialling in contrast ratio’s.Summary:I’m really happy with this purchase. I had previously tried the Logitech Brio which was inferior in every way to the Anker (for my use case at least). As an all in one package it is very much targeted at the homeworking / videoconferencing market & it does that incredibly well. My only thoughts for improvement are on the price – If Anker were to drop this into the £180 range it would be an absolute no brainer for most people. At £220, I feel a little bit ‘stung’ but have no regrets – there’s no better options out there for me right now.If this review was helpful please click on the ’helpful’ button below – thanks!

Title: Great 2k webcam with wide compatibility
Review: First off the stand is really stiff. I was afraid I would break it opening it and spent some time looking for a non existent latch but once I’d prized it open it is stable on top of my monitor. The light is great but really comes into its once once your downloaded Ankers software and set the light to auto. This means it dims or brightens as needed to keep your video feed consistent4K isn’t supported by a lot of streams and I actually find the quality achieved with this webcam better than my Brio but if your mobile be aware that it’s really too big to sit atop a laptop although it does have tripod mountings.The only real fault is the additional power connector that’s needed. As both the data and the power are usb c it would’ve been easy to combine them, but they haven’t. On the plus side it does mean that you can connect it to a usb a port using the right cable and use the enclosed plug for power

Title: Great solution for online meetings
Review: I’ve had this for a week now, so still early days. Coming from a logitech Brio I was looking for something which would perform better in low light and also allow me to ditch my headset. Whilst the low light video is better, thanks to the built in light, it is the audio side of things which has impressed me. The microphone array on the front of the bar works incredibly wwll and the built in speaker is loud and clear – I now do all my calls using just the B600. The software allows you to tweak a good range of settings, but not during a call, so tweaking in-call is limited to the controls on the device.Overall I’d strongly recommend this as a great solution for anyone working from home.

Title: Ergonomic, high-quality camera, with considered microphones, decent speakers, clear touch interfaces
Review: An ergonomic, considered, high-quality, high-resolution camera, with a well-thought-out microphone setup to counteract echos, with decent speakers and touch interfaces and indicators that are ergonomic and quick to use in a videocall scenario.There’s one clear shortcoming, which AnkerWork should fix: the lack of Linux software for the device. While the camera currently has basic functionality with the likes of Ubuntu, AnkerWork should provide software to Linux users to enable full usage of this device, equivalent to the offerings provided for Windows and macOS. Forcing users to rely on Guvcview is not sufficient. At CERN, pretty much everyone uses Linux and we use videoconferencing on a massive scale for all of our meetings, indeed we pioneered much of how online collaboration happens. Linux software should be made available by AnkerWork to users.

Title:
Review: I had high expectations for this unit given the lofty price, and I can confidently say it’s been up to the challenge.Pros:- Voice quality (microphone and speaker) is quite good. Though you will be disappointed if you were expecting bass for music.- Picture quality is very strong, and it does fairly well in dimly-lit conditions.- After initial setup it has been 100% dependable on my M1 Mac running MacOS Monterey across Zoom, MS Teams, and Google Meet.Cons:- It’s a chunky thing and not something I’d use on a laptop screen and/or travel with.- Takes up a USB-C slot if you want to run it without the power cord. Not a huge deal, especially given that it replaces both a webcam + speakerphone.- Expensive. The use case here is really “I want one device to handle both audio and video.” and _not_ “I want a nicer camera.” If it’s only video you’re after you could do cheaper.- Built-in light isn’t especially useful.All in all it’s pretty easy to recommend if you want something to replace your speakerphone and webcam as it does both audio (in/out) and webcam quite well. It’s pricey though, so if you don’t need the combined functionality you could definitely find something cheaper.

Review: The camera is ok, but the settings are terrible.The light cant be turned on automatically during calls. Its either completely manual (push a button) or only on when it decides the room is not bright enough.At least on macOS, it also seems the settings made in the configuration app don’t apply unless the app is running during calls.Dropping it to 1 star. Leaving the configuration app open turns on the video capture, so that isnt an option either

Review: Cámara genial. No distorsiona.Capta en situaciones de baja luz. Lo elegà porque tenÃa iluminación propia pero en la práctica esta función no es necesaria (lo era con mi anterior cámara genérica).Altavoces correctos para videoconferencia.El cacharro es grande pero se sostiene bien.
