    have you never been in a workshop and wanted to show someone what you’re working on? it would be awesome to just be able to flip the camera and walk over

      I mean, I would turn the laptop around. Or the webcam on the PC. Or use my phone for the call?

      I wouldn’t suggest that there is no use for this kind of camera. Yours is a good example. But for the cost and risk of damage, that is not something that most would want by default in a laptop.

      Also I have a phone with a camera for that purpose
