Hello there!

I red that the Logitech c920s pro does not work fine in Microsoft Teams and I have all my classes in this app, so.. yeah I need your help with this. My only request is no more than $100 US 

Could we have a reference to where you heard this (EG: an internet article)? What problems did you hear that it had with teams?

Also do you already have the C920 Pro? Or are you looking for a new webcam?

Before buying webcams, have you tried using your phone as a webcam?

Phone cameras are far superior than most webcams.

Try installing Droidcam.

I will give it a shot thank you 

I would agree with using your phone before buying a webcam, I have a phone with a broken screen and that is all it does; be a web cam.

Yeah once my webcam broke suddenly, i have to get another one in 2 hours.

That app saved me, never buy webcam since.

If you happened to have a camera with clean HDMI out, you could just buy a really cheap capture card like this: https://www.amazon.com/AVERYN-Upgraded-Streaming-Compatible-Nintendo/dp/B08XWX51FP/ref=sr_1_16?dchild=1&keywords=capture+card&link_code=qs&qid=1618248174&sourceid=Mozilla-search&sr=8-16     

and use that camera. Depending on the camera you have it could be quite a lot better than your phone.
