Many of us have spent a lot more time on video chats for work and school over the past 18 months and as a recent survey from Logitech reveals, it has lead to some interesting behaviour and new habits.

  • 42% of Australians would rather work from home as much as they like OVER getting a pay rise
  • 25% of people said they’d altered their appearance as a result of seeing their blemishes (and other people’s blemishes) on video calls. These alterations included changing hair colour, removing excess hair and actual alterations to the face such as lip fillers, botox, new eyebrows and new eyelashes.
  • More people have had tradies knock on their door and distract them during a video call (23%) than dogs barking or jumping on the table (21%) or children arguing or crying (13%)
  • 27% of people do video conferencing in pyjama pants (and 5% with no pants at all)
  • 18% of people are prepared to take work video calls in bed

Additionally, more than half of the people surveyed said their company hadn’t invested in technology to make video conferencing more effective at their homes for staff.
However, 52% of respondents felt they could be more productive with new technology.

Naturally Logitech has a great range of cameras for those online meetings.  Take a look HERE.
