(I’d also submit that the premium PowerConf C300 has a more responsive autofocus under dim lighting, but the C200’s performance is par for the course among even the best webcams, let alone those at this price point.) Image quality was undoubtedly superior to the Logitech C920s, which operated very well in low-light conditions during our testing, but not quite as well. While video over the PowerConf C200 seemed a bit grainier than that taken with the 1080p Logitech C920s, the higher resolution seemed to expose more details, and colors popped just a bit more in daytime lighting. (Image credit: Tom's Guide) (opens in new tab) I also compared still photos from each webcam to evaluate image quality. To see how the C200 stacked up against the competition, I set the viewing angle to 78 degrees in the AnkerWork app, bumped the 2K resolution to the max, and used it for several Google Meet and Zoom room chats, comparing it against both the mediocre webcam on my laptop (an HP ZBook Fury 17 G8) and the Logitech C920s. I do like having the 65-degree option, however, for more intimate one-on-one conversations, especially in low lighting.

Once I unboxed the boxy C200, all I had to do was plug it in (via USB port), download the Anker software (opens in new tab) for my Windows 10 laptop, sit through a quick firmware update, and I was ready to rock.
