Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The UGREEN 4K is the cheapest way into a 4K sensor in this ranking, and the listing spells out the parts that matter at that price: a CMOS sensor recording 4K at 30fps with an f/1.8 aperture, auto light correction, auto focus, dual noise-cancelling microphones and a 70 degree viewing angle, in a 96.3 gram body.
That f/1.8 aperture is the lowest in this ranking, which is the figure that decides how much light reaches the sensor in a dim room. The trade is the 70 degree angle, narrower than the 90 degree budget options, which frames you tighter and shows less of the room. At the time of collection it carried 2,288 ratings at 4.5 stars. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing rather than our own testing.
