In the last few years, I've found myself asking 'What are webcams for?' The obvious answer is meetings and online social gatherings, but I wonder how many use their ever-expanding feature set for anything more.
Yololiv shoves DSLR-quality 4K capture into its relatively small YoloCam S3, and I'm more torn on it than I thought I would be. It's clearly impressive, but also missing some features one might want for a casual meeting, and requires just a bit of fine-tuning out of the box. If you want to record a video and don't want a dedicated camera, I see the vision, but I don't know if I plan on swapping from my usual webcam-of-choice now that I've had some time with it.
At 185 g and a height of 74 mm, the Yololiv is not super bulky, and it's easy to set up. Its magnetic stand is super secure and clips onto the top of monitors with ease. It's such a strong magnet that I had to stand up to apply enough pressure to readjust it.
The quality of the camera is instantly clear. The 4K capture made me immediately start messing with my hair because it picked up a few too many rogue strands for my liking. To be clear, that's a good thing.
