Delichat
February 21, 2006 08:10 Delichat
A new webcams site, Delichat provides hours of sexy flirting with friendly models at very low prices.
In a nutshell: like on Secretfriends, free view for all, but paid chat only / very low prices / sexy dating atmosphere which can evolve in hotter performances depending on the model / Belgium, Dutch, French and German versions
Models: there are currently only a few models available at any time, around 10 during our reviews. This participates to the friendly/cozy atmosphere on the site. Most of them are sweet and sexy and have a very innocent attitude, which can also evolve in hotter performances depending on the mood of the model and her visitor. We met Timmy, a beautiful 19 year-old model with a great attitude and good language skills, with whom it would be easy to spend hours chatting and having fun. Angela also looks very cute and, judging by her pics gallery, she appears ready for a hotter type of dating experience. We were however unable to catch her online so far. There are other models available, some cuter than others, but all very open to their visitors and very friendly. This is a site with real amateurs camgirls for real camgirl fans. The consistency in the friendliness of the models is worthy of note and refreshing. Most models are based in Eastern Europe and have great linguistic skills, which is probably why the site is already popular among French, Dutch and German visitors.
Video quality: very very nice and polished chat window, with very good video feeds, including a high quality large-sized video in private chat. Two-way cam also works very well, and most models have audio. In free video preview, the image is of the same size but refreshes less regularly. When the model is in private, the video gets downsized, but users can still see what's happening in the room.
Features: online chatting features are straightforward and very elegant, in keeping with the overall atmosphere at Delichat. Users can also tip models, an increasingly popular option nowadays. The offline options are very well designed for the fans who want to develop a closer relationship with their favorite models. The email system, for example, allows fans to send messages only to those models with whom they have already chatted in the past. The email is however limited to text, and you cannot send your picture to the model, so you will have to use the cam2cam feature instead. There is also an email notification system letting you know when your favorite webcam model is online. Large bio galleries with slideshow function are nice, and some models may have recorded videos available, although we could not find any in this preliminary review of Delichat. Many camgirls also hold diaries or blogs letting their visitors know about what's happening in their lives, which is another testimony of the great community feeling at Delichat.
Value for money: free view for all, but paid chat only. As regards private chat, choosing the cheapest payment option (wire transfer) allows users to chat for as low as $0.69 per minute when buying prepaid Delicards. Standard credit card or phone payment starts at $1.26 and goes down to $0.82 per minute when buying a $99 block of time. This may be the cheapest site reviewed so far, and given the very welcoming attitude of the webcam ladies, this is a really good deal. The phone payment option will also be appreciated by users worried about their privacy. Members also have a chance to win $50 worth of credits if they recommend the site to their friends. Finally, long-time members are sometimes rewarded by surprise bonuses and additional minutes in their account. First-time visitors may also sometimes have the chance to register for free, with 5 minutes of private chat included.

Webcams.com update
February 18, 2006 10:47 Webcams.com
You can now learn more about the Webcams.com camgirls before you join thanks to their new Webcams blog.
In a nutshell: Webcams.com models are certainly among the cutest real amateurs around. Now you can learn and see much more of them before you join.
Blogs: one of the problems with registration-only access is that it is difficult to make up your mind whether to join before actually seeing and learning more about the models. Of course you can always read our camsite and individual webcams.com camgirl reviews, but at Webcams.com they recently introduced blogs with more information about their models. We learn for instance that HotCourtney is from Prague or that Jane4u's wonderful attributes are real. Visitors can also leave comments and discuss their preferred camgirls, just like in our forums
Models: in addition to Sonia, already featured in our camgirls reviews, we also liked Dylan19 and Bea4u. Dylan is a very young and earnest Asian camgirl who got very high ratings from Webcams.com members. No wonder she is featured among the first posts on the Webcams.com blog. We also found in our recent visits that there is an increasing number of models online, and they tend to be among the cutest around. Look at Bea4u or Diane (available as AddictedDoll).

CamClub
February 16, 2006 23:35 CamClub
CamClub is like Spread4u on steroids. Many camgirls, great chatting features.
In a nutshell: free chat / requires credit card verification / many cute camgirls / triple-sized videos
Models: there were always more than 100 camgirls online at Camclub during our visits, representing a wide range of styles, countries, languages (Spanish, Italian, German, French,...) and ethnicities. Camgirls are in three categories: Just Friends, Centerfolds and Intimate Encounters. Fans of Secretfriends and other camsites that promote gentle flirting will certainly enjoy the Centerfolds category, which features "Tasteful entertainment for adults. Live sessions with the world's top nude models." No models were live in that section at the time of our visits, but this looks like a promising category, especially since pricing in this section is much reduced. Many Camclub camgirls are also available at Spread4u, like Anna (who obviously enjoys being a nurse) and Angeline, a lady who always keeps audio on, even in free chat. Evelin is also very welcoming and has very beautiful curly hair. Finally, for the more daring visitors, CumTogether is quite baroque to say the least: she will put up an absolutely stunning and surprising performance, acting several roles in turn.
Video quality: double, and even triple video sizes are available, always with a reasonably good video quality. Typically camgirls who rank higher tend to have better video feeds. Just order models by ranking to see who are the most popular. Many Camclub models have cam2cam and/or audio.
Features: offline options include galleries, favorites list and bios, email alerts as well as a private email system between you and your favorite camgirls. Camclub also allows to search its many camgirls by different categories, including by price, age, language, etc. They also feature the chathost of the week and a special "fetish" sections for those of us who appreciate that genre. Camclub is also announcing the availability of French and German language versions soon. Online features include free webcam chat, private chat, "keyhole chat" (which provides members a way to peep through to see what's happening in a nude only room with a small video size), private chat, webcam chat and voyeur mode. A number of models are available in "nude only" type access. In our experience these models tend to be working on many sites at the same time: most "professional" camgirls, like the lady available as "BustyBlonde BJ" will be found in that section. Yet another way to interact with Camclub camgirls and easily jump from room to room is the Party Chat option. Camclub also borrows the wonderful whisper chat feature from Sprea4u, which allows you to enjoy a real private conversation with your favorite camgirl, even in free chat. Finally, in addition to the one-way audio function, many models support phone, allowing you to talk to your favorite camgirls.
Value for money: free text chat available to all, but free video chat requires a free credit card age verification process. Pricing per minute is set by the model, and ranges between $0.99 to $5 per minute.

Peekshows update
February 13, 2006 01:38 Peekshows
A number of long-time models, including US and Canadian camgirls, have returned to Peekshows. The site has also finally started adding new features.
Return of long-time Peekshows stars: some of the most popular models have now returned to Peekshows, to the delight of their fans. This camsite may lack some of the more advanced features found on other webcam sites, but it is ultimately the models that make a great place. Some models like Rita (now NovaRita), Katrine or Kloudia are now online more often, and popular US and Canadian models like Kitra, Nikki, Alexx, Alyssa and Mandi are back. Some of them are featured in our camgirls reviews section.
Finally new features: while Peekshows fans are still waiting for sound and recorded shows, two features that have been announced a number of times but not already implemented, the site has started adding some new original features, including camgirl blogs. The models have not yet started publishing much, but we could find some entries in some bios such as Linaxxx. This is definitively a nice way to get to know your favorite models better. Peekshows now also features an online notification system in the form of a rss feed to which members can subscribe. It is a bit cumbersome, and we much prefer the online monitor in our camgirls reviews section (very handy for ladies working on several sites) or in our who's live monitor section
Another way to get closer to your favorite camhosts is to offer her gifts: each model may create a wishlist and members can make little presents.

JoYourself update
February 09, 2006 00:26 JoYourself
JoYourself is now getting the great Livejasmin large video screens with chat in picture functions
In a nutshell: great new way to have a full screen webcam feed from the camgirls / still moderate pricing / good models.
Much improved video quality: JoYourself now features great full-screen live video feeds, which provide an unprecedented chatting experience. Other sites have provided large feeds for some time now, but we find that the technology used on both LiveJasmin and Joyourself is unparalleled. You really want to get close and personal with the models. With the new technology, it seems that the free chat activity timeframe has been reduced, but you can still easily go back to the room and you have ample time to check out the camgirl before making up your mind whether to get closer.
New models: the new technology is attracting models back to this site. As mentioned in our initial review, JoYourself camgirls tend to be also available on LiveJasmin, but not at the same time. They also tend to be younger and nicer to camgirls fans, maybe because the site is attracting less traffic and therefore less beggars. New regulars include PlayfullBlond, an extremely cute brunette, Anangelgirl4u, and MichelleSexy. Many camgirls also leave audio on in free cam time, which adds to the experience.

Camcontacts powertips
February 07, 2006 10:23 CamContacts
Here are some tips for the poweruser at CamContacts. Test their new mobile phone access.
In a nutshell: new camgirls from the world over / CamContacts mobile services allow to stay in touch with favorite models on your phone
Many new models have joined Camcontacts: the site is increasingly popular for models who can easily sign up. The improved cam2cam and audio features have also attracted a new, more demanding, audience. Increased traffic has in turn attracted many new models from all over the world, including many beauties from Canada (try Canadashot and BlondeNSexy), France (AsianBarbie), Greece (Melania), Ukraine (GoInsane, Lady4Passion, PassionPearl, SensitiveDi and AliveElza) and of course a steady flow of new camgirls from the US, the UK and Russia.
Finding camgirls close to you made easy: CamContacts has a very powerful search feature that allows users to find models by country, language, ethnicity, etc. This is very handy to find a camgirl living close to you or who speaks your language. At the time of our testing, while many models would not disclose their location, many chathosts indicate their location, and the list of countries is really impressive: from Albania (5 models) to Zambia (4 models), there are models from a great many territories. Of course many camgirls may not be honest when indicating their location, but if you cross-check with their language abilities, you will find real ladies from France, Finland, Canada, Belgium, the Netherlands, South America, who are not easy to find on other camsites.
Video quality: video feeds are java-based and very good. However, CamContacts is lacking video features found on many other leading camsites these days, in particular resizeable window. The standard size is ok, but it would be nice to have the option to enlarge it.
New CamContacts mobile service - Access your favorite camgirls anytime, anywhere: with a gprs phone, members can now access all online models and chat in a group video session. The one2one option is not yet available, but this is definitively a great feature, costing the same reasonable price as the web-based access. This is the first site that supports this option, and one may think why this has not been introduced earlier. In our testing, the access is relatively easy to set up, and the video feed is actually good, considering that the bandwidth is much more limited than on cable or dsl. The service appears to be targeted mainly at UK users, as some of the features are not available elsewhere. The only feature lacking to turn the experience in a real camgirl phone is... voice.

Visit-X
February 06, 2006 00:39 Visit-X
If you want to try out German camgirls, Visit-X should be your first port of call. It is a strong contender with Camcontacts Deutschland for the best German site.
In a nutshell: paid chat only / free teaser private clips / relatively cheap / real amateur camgirls
Models: the site's tag-line is "Amateur Webcam Chat" and it is well-deserved: this is a real site for amateur camgirls, who can sign up and start broadcasting very easily. This results in a large variety (more than 60 camgirls available online) of ever changing models. Visit-x ladies are mainly based in Germany and the neighboring countries. The overall feeling in many of the rooms is really not one of gentle flirting. Many models wear leather, fetishist-type clothing or other very provocative attire. These camgirls are very quick to start their performance in private shows, with an emphasis on a very active and uninhibited performance rather than on the personal relationship. There is no ambiguity as to why they and their visitors are there for. This is a straightforward, and in many ways refreshing, approach. Users who like that directness should visit Highheellady, Ladystrong, Fetischdiva or StewardessX, one of the rare models from Scandinavia. Many Visit-x models fit that description, and they tend to be in their late twenties or early thirties. Then again, members can also find a number of very sexy cute camgirls in their early twenties who have a more ingenuous attitude when hosting a visitor. This is a typical profile for camgirls on other adult webcam sites, the difference being that the ladies here are mostly from Germany. SexTraum, SexyLarisa or Marijka all fall in that category. There are also a few extremely beautiful ladies whose power of attraction and magnetism mystify even the most jaded camgirls lover: we would higlhy recommend visiting the Brazilian Amanda4Fun or the cute German Sawage. Another distinguishing feature of the Visit-x camgirls is their language skills: most if not all models speak English in addition to German, and many speak other languages such as Dutch, French, Spanish, Portuguese and some other languages we had never heard of
Video quality: as one may expect from a site hosting almost exclusively independent camgirls not working out of studios, video quality largely depends on the setup of the model. Visit-x camgirls who are better equipped have a "high quality" label below their screen picture. Some have cam2cam and/or audio.
Features: offline options include galleries, bios and private videoclips, some available to guests and others to members only (registration is free). The site is very easy to navigate, with a bread-crumb like trail showing the last models you visited. Most functions are translated in English (as well as French, Spanish and... Turkish), but we still found some second-tier pages such as the help section in German. VIP members get unlimited access to video archives, an extended picture gallery and the ability to email their favorite models.
Value for money: paid chat only, but with many free teaser videoclips. Pricing per minute is set by the model, and is around $2.00, with a 10-20% discount for voyeur shows only. This is pretty reasonable when compared to pricing on most other camsites, Livejasmin and Streamate excepted. Payment options include credit card, check, wire transfer, and phone. Phone-based payment is an increasingly popular payment option which may alleviate the concerns of the security minded. It is however only available in certain European countries. When ordering credits by credit card, there is an added security feature with the site automatically calling you back and providing you with a pin code. VIP membership is a reasonable $5.99 recurring charge, or may even be free if the model gives you a VIP coupon.

Cams4us
February 03, 2006 20:26 Cams4us
A small camsite with some exclusive models, Cams4us is attracting a growing number of camgirls and their friends.
In a nutshell: free chat with registration / easy to navigate / a few real amateur exclusive models / real "girl next door" type camgirls
Video quality: Cams4us uses a Macromedia Flash-based interface with good video quality. Make sure to check out the video feed before taking a private show, as some models (mainly those based in Asia) tend to have slow connections. The cam2cam feature also works as advertised.
Features: free chat for all registered members, with a selection among "Join my gangbang", live free chat, voyeur chat and private chat. The first option is essentially a nude group chat, although there are only few other visits, which makes it a private chat at a fraction of the price. The chat window is uncluttered and straightforward to use. Visitors can also chat without being seen by others by clicking on the right tab, effectively locking them in a whisper-chat mode with the model, which is nice to get to know the camgirl or chat with your camgirl friends without having to take them private. Offline features include snapshots, videos, rating, online notification, appointment scheduling and schedules (which are however not much used by the models). Cams4us also used to feature a review and forum option for each individual camgirl, but it seems to have been removed as part of the recent site makeover.
Models: many of the 10 to 15 models available at any time are real amateurs. There are few real cutie stars, but many "girl next door"-type ladies from different horizons and backgrounds: Cams4us models tend to be older on average, with a few mature ladies, and a proportionally large number of Asian camgirls, mainly from the Philippines. There are occasional "professional" or "veteran" camgirls, but we met a lot of ladies who were new to camming and who were willing to share fresh experiences with users. Our recommended camgirls from this site are those who appear to be working mainly if not exclusively here: SexyAsianBeauty, Jazmine and Anais. Other models also available on different sites are SensualTorment and Electra, who are among the most stunning ladies available on Cams4us. Some of them are reviewed in our camgirls reviews section.
Value for money: free chat for all, including whisper chat. Pricing varies according to the models and according to the method of payment: if you choose to pay by phone, prices will depend on your area. The pay-by-phone option will be appreciated by those camgirls fans who are reluctant to give out their credit card details over the internet. It is an increasingly popular payment mode on many European camsites. A minus point for Cams4us is that it does not clearly mention the prices per minute, nor the difference in pricing between the private, voyeur and "join my gangbang" chats.
