It's still pretty nuts when you think that in their phones Apple have consistently had either the best, or one of the best, cameras in the market.
Yea it boggles the mind, but then again they surely could put better cameras in there if they wanted. It's not a priority.
I complained about their "shit" 720p webcams a lot when looking to buy a new laptop last year.
10 months and numerous Zoom calls later I don't have an issue really.
Maybe if everybody has top of the line glass fibre connections and pro-grade hardware you can run smooth video calls in higher resolutions, but my real life experience is that connection speed and weak laptops bottleneck so hard that a lot of people can't even have "HD" on and some need to switch off their video completely to be actually able to take part in big Zoom meetings.
I did try the EppoCam @Soul mentioned but it was too much faff and frankly not worth it, matter of fact it does look fine with the built-in webcam of the 16", as long as the light isn't too dim at least. -
Even more so when you think how much of the image quality is software dependant
They claimed that the image processing in the M1 makes the webcam picture quality better. Apparently Dammit disagrees.
I don't know if they can fit anything better without making the screen thicker.

But then until recently how many users have used them that much?
