Vivek Gowri writing over at Notebook Review.com has posted a review of the Logitech QuickCam Deluxe for notebook computers. ‘The QuickCam Deluxe features an integrated microphone, adjustable focus, glass lens, a hard-to-press snapshot button at the top, and an adjustable clip on the back, which I will get to in just a moment. At just over 2-inches long and an inch wide, the QuickCam is rather large, but the design is sleek enough to mask the size. It is also a pretty slim device, with the webcam itself being less than half an inch thick.

The back of the device is where the design starts to go downhill. When the unwieldy adjustable clip is factored in, the depth comes to a total of 1.5”, with an unsightly gap between the webcam and the laptop’s lid. This is quite disappointing for a device advertised as being sleek and stylish. And although the clip is large, it cannot accommodate thicker screens like desktop LCDs. The thickest screen I got it to fit onto was the 0.5” thick lid of my older Toshiba laptop; even that was quite a struggle to get it to fit. Anything thicker and it will likely not stay on properly.’
