I bought my laptop HP Pavilion x360 14 a month ago, I tried its built in web (HP wide vision HD camera), and I found it has a very poor resolution (nearly VGA not HD).
I tried using the camera in several applications Zoom, Duo...etc. with the same poor quality.
I tried the preinstalled camera application in addition to youcam 9, the same poor quality.
Please advise.

I reviewed your post and I understand that you are facing issues with the webcam video quality.
Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
I recommend you follow the below steps and check if it helps.
After taking a picture or video and saving it (or you may use a previously saved picture or video taken with your webcam), use the following steps to determine the webcam resolution.
-
in File Explorer, navigate to the picture or video.
-
Right-click the picture or video.
-
Click Properties.
-
Select the Details tab and see the webcam resolution.
If you continue facing the issue, then follow the below steps.
-
Make sure your video recording environment has good lighting.
-
Change the image quality, brightness, contrast, and other adjustments in the webcam software.
To resolve problems with choppy playback, take the following actions:
-
Reduce the size of the video image in the webcam software.
-
Use a high-speed Internet connection.
-
Do not use other high-speed USB devices while using the webcam.
Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
