This landing page is terrible.

There's a bunch of professional photos of the camera, two with a hand, then two next to a pair of pants, then on a handbag.

Only after all that it is shown on a laptop, where it is actually used! It should be the first image. Also, there's so little comparison between built-in webcam image and their offerings.

Then there's a huge video with a bead sliding on the rope holding the camera. It seems that the marketers are just masturbating with the high-quality photography they made. It's not actually useful.

This is not a problem users were like "I don't know how I can go from a meeting to another with my camera".

Also, their "Have you ever wished you could instantly mute yourself in a video call without having to look for that elusive mic button? Well, now you can have it." -- this is a solved problem with mute buttons on F1/F2 or whatever your laptop does. Or at least, current mute solutions are not harder than "I'm bring my own webcam, plug it in, configure the audio source, position it correctly on the top of my screen"

This landing page is out-of-touch with actual problems users may have.
