A webcam should make you feel confident, keep you in focus and handle the chaos of real life—whether that’s a dimly lit room or a noisy office. Insta360’s Link 2, a 4K webcam with a motorized gimbal, delivers on those fronts for $149.99, down from $199.99.
Mounting the Link 2 is a snap, literally. The magnetic base snaps onto monitors or tripods with ease and at 2.8 by 2.3 by 1.5 inches it fits anywhere without cluttering your desk. Unlike bulkier competitors, this webcam’s sleek design—complete with a subtle green status ring—adds a touch of class to your setup. When idle it tilts down to ensure privacy, no need for a clunky shutter.

The half-inch sensor captures 4K footage at 30fps, details like facial textures and clothing patterns are super clear. High dynamic range mode handles bright windows and dark corners with ease.
The two-axis gimbal allows the camera to pan and tilt as you move around the room, keeping you centered no matter where you are. The AI tracking handles solo or group images, zooms and adjusts to keep everyone in focus. You can set boundaries to limit its scope, making dynamic displays feel more natural.
Dual microphones with AI noise suppression produce clear sound even in crowded areas. For casual calls it’s fine, but serious makers may want a dedicated mic like the Shure MV7+. Three audio modes—Voice Focus, Suppression and Music Balance—let you customize the sound for solo calls, noisy areas or streams with background music.
The Link Controller software ties it all together. Available for Windows and macOS it’s the hub for customizing your experience. You can adjust exposure, white balance and contrast or apply filters for a pro look. Gesture controls are fun—raise your hand to toggle tracking or make a peace sign to activate whiteboard mode. The software also supports DeskView which tilts the camera to capture your workspace and Whiteboard mode which locks onto a board for clear presentations.
