Many users are experiencing low resolution (640x360) and low fps (5fps) when using webcams that have 1080p or 4k capability and sufficient bandwidth to record video or during video calls. There are many posts of users using other apps like Zoom, Facetime, OBS, etc., to trick the macOS Teams app to use a higher res and fps. Others are using the Teams via a web browser to experience better performance.

Yes, we are actively working on improving the video resolution while making sure that Mac CPU performance isn't impacted. We are also working on offloading the video encoding to the hardware chipset which will allow us to use much higher resolutions.
