Choosing between the AVer VB342 Pro and the AVer VB350? Here's how they differ on room size, platforms, camera, audio and price, and which one fits your room.
Short answer: pick the VB342 Pro if you want the one that costs $1,246 less and is sized for smaller rooms, so you don't pay for range you won't use. Pick the VB350 if you want the one that covers bigger rooms (up to large rooms) and has the wider field of view (105° vs 84° horizontal), better when people sit close to the screen.
Both are Teams, Zoom and Google Meet certified USB video bars; the difference is camera and audio.
