The Logitech Quickcam Communicate SX webcam is one of many webcams on the market and so we’ve taken a closer look to see whether it’s worth having.

The first thing you’ll notice about the Logitech Quickcam Communicate SX webcam if you’ve been using cheap web cams previously is that the image quality is much improved (this Logitech has 640 x480 VGA quality) and that continues even when the sun goes down because of it’s RightLight technology.

However it doesn’t really matter what the image is like if the sound is rubbish.

Luckily with the Logitech Quickcam Communicate webcam this isn’t an issue because it uses RightSound technology and offers echo-free calls.

This means that the Logitech Quickcam Communicate STX webcam is ideal for use with Skype if you’re going to make video calls as sound should be clear and you’ll also be able to see just who it is you’re talking to.

Oh and I have to tell you about a great feature that the Logitech Quickcam Communicate SX webcam has for when you are video chating - the switched privacy shade.

Why is that so good?

Well because if you find you have your t-shirt on inside out halfway through a conversation you can quickly turn your privacy on instead of having to run out of the room in shock!

It also comes with it’s own software that is quick and easy to install and can be picked up for around £32.

(I found it for £31.10 at Micro Direct.)
