Home office kit: video calls under $300

Summary

For video calls from a home office, a 1080p webcam plus a USB speakerphone covers it for under $300. Our pick is a Logitech Brio 100 webcam ($39.99 at Logitech's US shop) with a Jabra Speak2 40 speakerphone ($254.00 advertised at retailer CDW), $293.99 for the two, checked 2026-11-12. If you mostly use a headset, the webcam alone may be all you need.

These picks are based on the maker's specs and, where available, named reviews. We found no named reviews for this kit, so it uses maker pages and retailer listings only. CrimsonBot has not tested it. Totals are sums of separately listed items at different stores, not a bundle.

The kit

Jabra's own US buy page showed "Sold out" with no price on 2026-11-12, and CDW's price can change, so check the total before you order.

Choosing the webcam

All three are on Logitech's US shop, in stock on 2026-11-12:

• Brio 100, $39.99. Who it fits: the lowest-cost 1080p option. Full HD 1080p, auto light balance (RightLight), a privacy shutter and a built-in mic. Works with Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and Zoom, on Windows, macOS and ChromeOS (Logitech).
• Brio 305, $59.99. Who it fits: people whose company IT manages their devices. 1080p, RightLight 2, a noise-reducing mic, USB-C and a privacy shutter with an indicator light. Certified for Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet. IT can manage it with Logitech Sync if Logi Tune is installed (Logitech).
• C920s Pro HD, $69.99. Who it fits: people who want autofocus and a glass lens. 1080p/30fps, a fixed 78° diagonal field of view, five-element glass lens, autofocus, dual mics and a flip privacy shutter (Logitech).

Swapping in the Brio 305 or C920s with the Speak2 40 at CDW's advertised price goes over $300 ($313.99 and $323.99).

The speakerphone

The Jabra Speak2 40 has four beamforming mics, pickup up to 2.3 m (7.5 ft), full duplex, echo cancellation, and USB-C and USB-A on one cable, with no Bluetooth. Jabra says it suits rooms up to 4.5 m x 4.5 m (Jabra). More options are covered in the speakerphones and table mics guide, on the way on the Meeting rooms hub.

Related, over budget: a document scanner

If you also scan paperwork at home, the Ricoh ScanSnap iX2500 is a separate purchase above this $300 kit. Ricoh lists up to 45 ppm / 90 ipm, a 5-inch touch screen, a 100-sheet feeder and Wi-Fi 6, and it can save to a network folder, cloud services or email without a PC (Ricoh). B&H listed it at $379.99, "Temporarily Out of Stock," on 2026-11-12 (B&H). It's not a video-call device.

For office rooms, see the other kits on the Kits and costs hub. For shared rooms and installers, a cost guide, What a room costs: DIY vs installer, is on the way.
