IT Pro for 2 decades... I typically do not leave reviews for technology. I was tasked with finding a wide-angle webcam that, from a stationary vantage point, can reach both sides of a desk and the entire office (~15'x30' space). Although I did not recognize the WYRESTORM name, I read the specs and description as well as a few of the reviews and it claimed to do what I needed. Upon installing the WYRESTORM 4K Webcam with AI Tracking moments ago, it worked plug-and-play out of the box, first try. No configuring. So simple. The tracking and features that are intuitive in this camera are impressive and it does absolutely everything I hoped it might, and I'm sure in a few weeks, the rest of our leadership team will hear about this camera and I'll be back for more. For the price, this is a tremendous value! Picture quality is great - the focus and zoom is smooth. We were testing with Windows 11 and MS Teams for our inaugural voyage. I would pair this with a flexible/grippy-leg tripod for advanced mounting options. Read more
Since the pandemic, remote work has become a major part of my industry, which has made having a high-quality camera for virtual meetings more important than ever. After shopping around, I came across the WYRESTORM 4K Webcam and was excited to give it a try. Like most webcams, it's still crucial to have good lighting for the best image quality possible, but even in lower-light settings, this camera does an impressive job of compensating with very little noise. Combined with the accompanying app that lets me fine-tune the color and various camera settings, I feel confident that the image I’m projecting looks great during calls. I’ve also been intrigued by the rise of AI-driven auto-framing in cameras, and the AI in this one works really well. It tracks movement nearly perfect, and smooth and keeps me centered in the frame. Though the camera is still relatively new, the app and control options are robust, offering nearly everything you’d need. I do wish there were a few additional settings available for more granular control, but since the product is still in its early life, I’m have no doubt that future updates will expand the app’s capabilities and provide even more customization, and will make the AI Functionality even better.

Excellent camera for the price. I do not use the microphone, so I do not know how well it works on audio. The video is great and it is comparable to cameras that sell for 2xs the price. it does auto zoom and centering. Read more
Easy to set up. Mac software works well for enabling/disabling face tracking (in case you want to lock the wide angle for whole-room shots). Read more
There is no way to adjust the resolution or fps of the camera in the wyrestorm focus app. Ive googled and read all the pdf's for instructions. It seems like a nice camera, but it comes with zero instructions. Im new to webcams, but i would think it should have some sort of instructions. Easy to setup, just plug it in. But its usless to me without being able to access the quality settings. It has the color, brightness, sharpener, ect... but no actual video quality settings. In the past i have found I left a bad review on account of my error. But im leaving it at 3 stars because of the misleading advertisement. ...it does not say it in the description on amazon, but in the pdf it explains that its 30fps at 4k, 60fps at 1080 and 90fps at 720, if i new this before the purchase i would not have got this cam. That is borderline false advertisement. Read more
I have spent 40 years in the IT industry and it has taught me to look for complicated solutions before considering simple ones. I bought this camera for its 1080p resolution but then got on my first conference call with nothing but video static. There was little in my box other than the camera and its cable. I later searched for information on the camera to discover there was software to help configure the camera so I download and installed it. But still no joy. It took me a while to just consider that maybe the new USB cable was bad. I replaced it and instantly was up and running. Now, if I move to one side during a conference call, the camera tracks with me and you can see a different background. So, this is a great way to make sure your face is always in the video and it has good sense of how to zoom out and in. I have used it to create one YouTube video for which the 1080p resolution worked well. And on a conference call today, my coworkers who all appeared grainy and fuzzy in their pictures, commented on how clear my image was. I highly recommend this camera. But if you think yours is broke, try a new cable before you spend a lot of diagnostic time. Read more
Worked fine without the software needed for AI tracking. Once software for tracking was installed all camera's and mic's stopped working. When unplugged from my Win11 laptop and restart internal stuff worked again. Emailed there support and I got a reply that they use windows 11 desktops and it works fine. Big help that was. Read more
I recently purchased this 4k webcam with AI tacking, and I’m thoroughly impressed! The video quality is great even in low-light conditions. The colors are vibrant, and the autofocus works seamlessly with AI tracking, keeping me sharp even when I move around. The microphone quality is so much better than the old webcams I owned, it picks up my voice clearly while minimizing background noise. I am really happy that I am having much efficient meetings.
