      Just started experimenting with the pi - MagicMirror.

      Had few doubts regarding the camera and microphone setup I would be able to use with the pi.
      I know that the pi doesn’t have microphone support in the 3.55mm jack cause (after googling and testing

      Model: Pi 3 Model B

      I thought I’d get a webcam with built in microphones like :

        I don’t have any suggestions for you but I did look at this page before I made my decision on what webcam to buy so that I could be relatively sure that it would work with the Pi3 B that I have. I chose the Kodak S101 for one reason. It looked like I could dismantle it. I don’t want the casing. I’m going the drill a hole in the frame of my mirror and insert the lens and microphone. I haven’t gotten around to it yet.

        Anyway, your webcam choice should work for you. It clearly states on this page that it will, as it did mine.
