Note: The BenQ company reached out to me within the first 24-hrs after this video went live, and informed that that they do have a Windows 'Offline' version of the software. The link to this software is: www.benq.com/en-us/support/downloads-faq/products/ideacam/s1-pro/software-driver.html
Since the key criticism I had for this product was due to it only having a Web App as S/W (in Windows), and since the PE4Doers Channel follows strict adherence to fair reviews, I have released a follow-up video downloading and demonstrating that stand-alone software. This software worked equivalent to the Web version and can be viewed using this link:

4x3 EWWW its 2023 :P. Good well explained video !

[@PE4Doers]

Thanks Jason, much appreciated.

[@KathrinHausermann]

Very neat functions :)) Great video thank you very much :))

[@PE4Doers]

Thank you Kathrin. If only they did it at a higher quality.

I personally think the image quality was just fine. I like video games to be 4K, but when in a meeting on a webcam I don’t want 4K or 2K resolution to see everyone’s facial pores in that much detail. The design is sleek and appealing. The aspect ratio gets the job done. Web app only, that’s the bummer. Great review!

[@PE4Doers]

Thanks for the detailed comment. I agree with you on all the points you mentioned to a limited degree. I am faced with the reality however, that I've reviewed other Webcams that offer a lot more (including sharper images) for about the same cost. I will be posting a 'Pinned' comment to mention something that the company pushed-back on that I am still investigating.

[@Practical-IT]

That seems like a jack of all trades, master of none product.
Why would a company put a product out in 2023 that only does 4:3? Very odd

[@PE4Doers]

Thanks for the comment Jeremy. I fully agree, but I need to look into some new information they provided to me that may warrant an update video (not involving the weak resolution or the 4:3 AR). Not sure yet though.
