Get studio-quality audio and video with this 4K webcam

The emeet Pixy.

Being able to connect online is more important than ever. Whether you're trying to upgrade your work meetings or get a clearer image for your streaming audience, the right webcam can be an indispensable tool. Unfortunately, a lot of people don't consider it. They're still getting by with the built-in camera on their laptops or the same beat-up, budget webcam they've had for years.

You don't realize how much you're missing without a feature-full webcam. Get away from potato-quality cameras with the emeet Pixy. From AI-powered sound optimization to the enhanced focus offered by the dual cameras, this little guy is a great buy for modern professionals and Gen Z content creators alike.

Be seen

What's better than one camera? If you said two cameras, you're spot on. The dual-camera system on the emeet Pixy serves many purposes, not the least of which is its industry-leading 0.2-second auto-focus. That's two-and-a-half times faster than the typical webcam. The AI-assisted cameras don't just find focus quickly. The Pixy is literally detecting your facial contours and skin tones, adjusting the picture in real-time and making sure you're presented in the best possible light.

You might be the kind of person who bobs and weaves a lot during their streams. These 4K cameras follow you to ensure the image stays focused. Turning on auto-tracking is as simple as raising your hand and letting the camera register it. The Pixy is capable of pans as wide as 310° and tilts as far as 180°, making sure you're still on screen without tedious (and flow-breaking) manual adjustments.

Be heard

Getting your picture on screen is only part of the equation. Clear audio is one of the greatest drawbacks to the standard webcam. Luckily, with Pixy, you don't need to buy an expensive stand-alone microphone to make sure you've got exceptional audio clarity.

Featuring a three-microphone array, you can expect sound to be captured in a wider physical range. Remember that bobbing and weaving? No issues here. Whether you're sitting in front of a computer or involved in a multi-person panel in a conference room, you can expect high-definition audio.

Of course, your circumstances could be wildly different from someone else's. While you may have a sound-dampened streaming space, someone else could be working in a lively office. The Pixy comes with three different audio modes that suit your individual needs. Live mode gets rid of steady-state and ambient noise like fans or air conditioners, which is perfect for working from home. Noise-Canceling mode takes that one step further by also suppressing sudden and changing transient noise. This is optimal if you're in a high-noise location, doing streetside content creation. Finally, Original Sound mode presents the audio exactly as is, which is perfect for quiet spaces without distractions.

Be creative

From leveling up your day job to making content creation a breeze, the emeet Pixy is there to make your life easier and clearer. There are a ton of quality-of-life features that make a major difference in your day-to-day. Whiteboard mode recognizes whiteboards and shifts the balance to make sure your notes are on point. Portrait and Inversion mode ensure you're able to use the Pixy from any angle. Maybe most importantly, all you have to do is tilt the camera down by 79° to send the Pixy into Privacy mode to shut your camera off instantly. Don't want to be tethered to your PC? No worries. The Pixy is compatible with top platforms and devices, including the Nintendo Switch 2. They're priced at $159.99 on Amazon and emeet's website, but with the discount code EMEETPIXY, valid from June 23 to July 11, you can save 6%.

We're all taking more meetings online. It's just a fact of life. If you want to put your best foot forward, a webcam like the emeet Pixy will help you do that. In the modern world, your face is your business card. Make sure it's clear.
