The Link 2 is a webcam that moves. The camera sits on a small two-axis gimbal that pans and tilts to keep you in frame when you stand up, walk to a whiteboard or lean back, and gestures let you start tracking or zoom without touching the computer. The 1/2 inch sensor films in 4K at 30 fps or 1080p at 60 fps, with HDR in every mode, an f/1.8 lens and phase detection autofocus from 10 cm, which gives a cleaner image in a dim room than most webcams.
Smart Whiteboard straightens and enhances a board, DeskView points the camera down at your desk, and portrait mode suits vertical streams. The built-in mics use AI noise cancelling. When you stop using it, the camera flips down after 10 seconds for privacy. It weighs 101.5 g without its magnetic mount and connects over USB-C (USB 2.0); the Link Controller app runs on Windows and macOS.
Where it sits in real desks, and why it earned its place there.
Why it is here
A 4K sensor on a two-axis gimbal with AI tracking: it keeps you framed when you stand up at the desk during a call. Its noise-cancelling mics are enough for meetings without a separate microphone.
Cheaper, better or just different: the products we would weigh against this one.
