Everyone kind of assumed that webcams would die off once laptops and computer screens started shipping with tiny cameras built right into the bezels, and they almost did. But then a pandemic arrived a few years ago, everyone was forced to work from home, and we all realized that the quality of built-in webcams just wasn’t up to to snuff for daily meetings. It spawned a renewed demand for webcams, but now that macOS Ventura is going to easily let Apple users use the excellent cameras on their iPhones as webcams without the need for any cord-wrangling, dedicated webcams may finally be doomed.
