The best webcams for streaming of 2024: Expert tested

HyperX Vision S features – Resolution: Up to 4K | Field of view: 90 degrees | Framerate: Up to 30 fps at 4K, up to 60 fps at 1080p | Connectivity: USB | Compatibility: Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS 

HyperX’s first webcam, the Vision S, is my go-to for everything from Zoom calls for work, to Discord movie nights with friends, and whenever I get a free moment to actually stream on Twitch. The wide, 90-degree field-of-view gives you plenty of framing space to set up interesting backgrounds like neon signs or reactive RGB lighting without making you feel cramped on-screen. 

It can record and live stream in up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second, and at up to 60fps at 1080p HD. It connects to your PC via USB, and features plug-and-play compatibility with Windows, ChromeOS, and MacOS devices. This means you don’t have to download any extra software or apps to start using your Vision S, but to be able to take full advantage of features like in-camera white balance, you’ll need the HyperX NGenuity desktop app. And with a magnetic privacy cover, you can quickly cover the lens when not in use to prevent accidental recordings or unauthorized viewing.
