5 Sites With Similar HD Live Cam Features to CamSoda
CamSoda is a highly popular cam site and for a reason. It has hundreds of beautiful and promiscuous models giving hot shows with full nudity around the clock, and it puts at your disposal great features including free live show recordings and mobile cam2cam.
Yet it's not the only one worth your attention. There are quite a few sites which offer you similar and even better features. I've gathered here for you the five HD cam sites I believe to be the best alternatives to CamSoda in terms of the overall live cams experience they deliver.
Stripchat
The first thing that will catch your attention the moment you set foot on Stripchat is its huge model selection. I'm referring to no less than 3,000 online models 24/7. During peak hours, this number can easily go beyond 5,000. These models appear under hundreds of chat categories covering almost any niche you can think of.
Similar to CamSoda, most of Stripchat's models like to perform stark naked in their public chat rooms. Some use all sorts of sex toys like dildos and even fuck machines, which make their show ten times more provocative.
Much like CamSoda, many models on Stripchat (around half of them) allow live shows recording. On Stripchat, you can record a model's public and private show. On CamSoda, only private shows are recordable. Unlike CamSoda, Stripchat's models will charge you some extra tokens for this feature, but both sites will let you access your recordings as much as you want at zero cost.
Stripchat has one prominent feature you'll find neither on CamSoda nor on almost all cam sites operating on the web these days: VR cam chats. Most hours of the day, Stripchat hosts 20+ cam models capable of entertaining you in a virtual reality environment.
Close to half of Stripchat's models stream in high definition. There is a specific category dedicated to hi-def live shows. You can see it on the menu bar. On the top right corner of the models' webcam player, there is an HD toggle allowing you to adjust streaming to your desired quality.
A 1-on-1 performance on strip chat will cost you $3.50 a minute on average. Minimum chat rate is $0.80 a minute. If you want to ban other users from spying on your shows and you wish to open your cam, you'll need to opt for an Exclusive Private chat which is 30-50 percent more expensive in most cases.
Whatever you choose, bear in mind that the majority of the models have minimum chat duration of up to 10 minutes.
Chaturbate
Chaturbate is probably the biggest cam site on the web. It hosts thousands of models dying to entertain you day and night. These models come from all corners of the world, and there are many amateurs among them side by side with professional ones. Like CamSoda and Stripchat, most of these performers like to wear their birthday suits while performing in their open rooms.
Chaturbate and CamSoda's models appear under tags, and on both sites there are myriads of such tags dealing with almost any niche you'll find in the porn industry. Neither on Chaturbate nor on CamSoda there is a an effective filter through which you can sort out these tags according to their themes, so you'll be required to run a manual search if you're looking for something specific.
If you access CamSoda on a Chrome browser, you'll be able to open your cam while you're in a model's open room. Chaturbate will let you do that as well. On the former, you'll be shown each model's per minute rate for public room c2c. On the latter, you'll have to negotiate a price with the model. Since there are so many users in almost all of Chaturbate's rooms, you'll probably be required to be generous with your tips to separate yourself from the others and earn the right to be watched by the performer.
In addition, in a much similar way to CamSoda, your 1-on-1 video chats on Chaturbate are automatically recorded on condition that the model allows private shows recording and that the show has lasted more than 30 seconds. You can access your recordings any time with no need to pay for it.
Many models on Chaturbate stream in HD+, and there are even models who use 4K cameras. Therefore, if broadcasting quality is important to you, Chaturbate should be your alternative to CamSoda.
In each model's performance window on the lower left corner, you'll see a button allowing you to select your preferred streaming level. You can decide to watch the shows in SD or HD.
The average price for a 1-on-1 chat on Chaturbate is $2.70 a minute. The cheapest models will charge you $0.60 a minute. As a rule of thumb, the models presented on the top spots of the main page are more expensive. If you navigate to internal pages, you'll run across more affordable chat rates.
As in the case of public cam2cam, opening your camera during a private show may demand an extra fee, depending on the model.
BongaCams
BongaCams is another top-notch freemium cam site. It operates around 2,500 chat rooms at any given moment. These rooms are occupied by stunning and shameless models who will get naked in public to lure you into chatting with them. The site has an array of beneficial promotions which are tailored for new as well as repeat users.
BongaCams closely resembles CamSoda in its advanced cam2cam apparatus. Like CamSoda, it enables you to open your cam on mobile and not only while you are in a private session but also in models' public rooms.
BongaCams' performers usually don't demand an extra payment for cam to cam. But from time to time, you may run into a model who may expect you to give her a nice tip if you want her to watch you or certain parts of you. The site allows its broadcasters to do that.
What BongaCams has and CamSoda lacks is a set of special promotions which spoil new and veteran users with fat bonuses. For example, if you make your first purchase from your mobile device, you'll get back 100 tokens (around $8.00) you've spent on the site's features. The Cashback Offer gives the 5 biggest spenders 25-200 tokens ($2.00 - $16.00) every 24 hours.
Streaming quality on BongaCams is great. You'll find many models who will perform for you in 720p and 1080p. You can set your desired streaming level by using the HD button on the lower right corner of every performer's webcam player.
Private sessions on the site have a uniform price which stands at $4.50 a minute. If you want to watch your model without other users peeking into your show, you'll need to invite her to a Full Private Chat and pay 50% extra.
MyFreeCams
MyFreeCams is in many respects the progenitor of CamSoda and other freemium live sex platforms as it was the first cam site featuring full nudity in public chat rooms. It has a fairly big selection of 1,000+ female models (and only females) available for online chats most hours of the day. Once you make your first purchase, you'll become a Premium member for life and enjoy great benefits.
Much like CamSoda, you can engage in cam2cam chats with MyFreeCams' girls in their private rooms as well as in their public rooms. If you opt for the latter option, only the model will be able to watch you and not the other users. Take into account that the model may ask you for a tip before she lets you open your cam.
As mentioned above, being a MyFreeCams' Premium member — a status you're granted once you buy tokens — you're spoiled with a variety of perks like free access to models' explicit photos, PMing any performer you want and even setting up your chat room like a broadcaster. On CamSoda, in contrast, you have to pay a sum of $19.95 a month regardless of your token purchases to gain Premium status and enjoys benefits such as sending models private messages.
Most of MyFreeCams' models broadcast at a quality of 720p. In some of the chat rooms, you'll find a button on the bottom right corner of the webcam player allowing you to choose whether you want to watch the show in HD or SD.
A private chat on MyFreeCams will cost you $5.00 a minute. This is a uniform rate charged by all models. To drive away spies, you may choose to launch a TruePrivate chat but be prepared to pay 33% extra.
Flirt4Free
If you're looking for high-quality live cam shows, Flirt4Free is where you should go. Its approximately 800 astonishing models will flirt with you in front of the cam 24/7. The site has a whole section dedicated to fetish if you're into kinky cam chats. There are tons of videos you can purchase, and above all, extensive loyalty and VIP programs will spoil you with hefty bonuses and great perks.
At first glance it seems that Flirt4Free has nothing in common with CamSoda. The former is officially classified as a premium site while the latter is a freemium site. However, after close examination, it becomes apparent that Flirt4Free, despite its obvious premium design and vibe, has freemium characteristics, especially when it comes to the free nude shows you'll be able to watch in its Party Chats and Group Shows.
Like CamSoda, your live shows on Flirt4Free are automatically recorded, but unlike CamSoda, you'll get free access to them only for a week, after which you'll either have to pay per show or sign up for the VIP program (see below).
If you're interested in upgrading your membership status by joining a VIP program, Flirt4Free is a clear alternative to CamSoda. The program offered by the latter is minimal. For $19.95 a month, you'll get nice but basic perks like navigating an ad-free interface, changing tip volume, sending models PMs, tipping anonymously and chatting invisibly. The best thing about this program is its welcome bonus of 200 tokens (around $20.00).
Flirt4Free's VIP program, by comparison, is more expensive — $39.95 a month — but it gives you so much more: enhanced private messaging with models, 200 free videos a day, free hour-long feature shows, unlimited access to your recorded shows, VIP promos, a 5% discount on all video purchases and 150 monthly recurring credits (around $16.50).
When it comes to cam to cam chats, Flirt4free resembles CamSoda. First, you won't need to pay extra upon opening your cam. Second, Flirt4Free's c2c is responsive to mobile devices.
Last but not least, Flirt4Free has a feature that exists neither on CamSoda nor on almost any other cam site. Its Play & Pay enables you to pay for your private shows directly from your credit card as you go instead of buying credit packs in advance.
Broadcasting quality on Flirt4Free is impeccable as the large majority of its models stream in HD. Each model's performance video contains a button you can use to adjust streaming level to high or standard definition.
The average price of a private show on Flirt4Free is $3.90 a minute. Minimum chat rate is $0.55 a minute. Most of the time, there are 15-20 online models on the site charging this highly affordable rate.
Conclusion
Don't get me wrong, CamSoda is a great site and I tend to visit it quite a lot. But there is no reason why you shouldn't take my advice and expand your cam sites portfolio using other excellent online platforms for live porn chats.
Each of the 5 sites mentioned here can be an alternative to CamSoda with the sexy cam models and features it offers you. Some of these features resemble the ones you'll find on CamSoda; others are better.
If asked to choose one site which is the best alternative to CamSoda, I'd go for Stripchat. Thousands of models of all shapes, sizes, ages and ethnicities giving free nude shows around the clock, myriads of chat categories, the ability to record a large portion of your private shows and, most of all, VR chat rooms can definitely justify my choice.
