Live! Cam Voice TrustedReviews.com Review

Simple to use
"This is where a webcam such as the Creative Live! Cam Voice comes into its own," said TrustedReviews.com in its review of Creative Live! Cam Voice.

"The microphone is built-in, so once you've installed the drivers all you have to do is plug in the webcam and you can see and talk without having to worry about anything else."

Good video quality
"Image quality in Skype was perfectly acceptable and noticeably better than some bottom of the range webcams that we've tried in the past," they said while trying out Skype™ with the webcam. They added: "Certainly the wide angle lens did have a real world benefit and the first time I used the camera the other party commented how much they could see to the sides of me."

Noise-canceling that really works
The TrustedReview.com team was full of praise about Live! Cam Voice's main feature, Directional Live!® Audio, mentioning that "The crucial noise cancelling feature did work as advertised..."

"If there's background noise then enabling the noise cancellation works a treat. In one call background music blaring from a stereo was almost completely eliminated. The Directional Live! Audio setting cuts out all noise by filtering everything but sound picked up directly in front of the microphone. This gives audio a clinical digital quality though and is designed only for use in very noisy environments such as a web café."

Hip and Fun looks
Apart from the high tech features, the fun side of video IM or video conferencing comes alive with Live! Cam Voice. TrustedRevies.com mentioned: "The webcam looks pretty funky as befits a camera at the top of Creative's range with the lens set in the middle of a wide centre strip, surrounded by curves. Inside the bottom card is a light, which glows yellow when the camera is connected and changes it red when the camera is active."

Their Verdict:
TrustedReviews.com rated Live! Cam Voice, in terms of features at an highly impressive 9/10, while the webcam received a good overall score of 7/10. As the name of the webcam suggests, they described Live! Cam Voice's noise canceling feature as one "which works well and is impressive".
