Recommendation for a high-quality webcam for Linux
I have a Logitech C920 and am looking to upgrade. Something suitable for streaming.
Some annoyances with the Logitech: sometimes autofocus fails and poor reproduction of blacks. Ex: Lack of detail when a black cat is on screen.
I already have a nice mic-- the webcam doesn't need one.

How?
I haven't tried it myself, but I believe the OC is referring to the webcam USB mode that Pixels (idk if this is an Android feature or a "Pixel" feature) have. To enable it, connect over USB then you'll have a notification along the lines of "Charging this device over USB".
If you click that notification it'll let you enable Webcam over USB mode, which I assume just causes the phone to act as any other webcam device would.
Exactly, it works flawlessly and without any further setup on EndeavourOS for me. It's a Pixel feature afaik.
I believe that is an Android 14 feature, not something exclusive to Pixel phones
That's cool indeed, thanks.
