Full Review
iHeartCams.com is the new kid on the sex cam circuit, and with a sleek design and great performers it is sure to please. This site is powered by the same engine that supports Imlive.com, one of the largest and most reputable adult webcam sites on the Internet. However, iHeartCams has a cleaner design and eliminates many of the extraneous features that you will find on Imlive. By doing so, this site provides a clean look and a responsive interface with a focus on what most visitors really want, to chat with and view the most gorgeous sex cam models on the web.
Performers
iHeartCams has access to the same huge cadre of cam girls and guys that you will find on Imlive. This means that you will typically find close to 1000 performers online during peak times. And these aren’t your average adult chat models. With over 20,000 registered models, there is an extremely diverse selection of performers that include single girls, shemales, gay men, couples and various types of fetish models. iHeartCams boasts both amateur as well as professional models, all of whom are eager to fulfill your every request. All of the models can be engaged in free chat so that you have a chance to get to know them before you go into a private, nude chat session. Finally, because of the large number of models that are registered with the site, there are performers from all over the world that speak many different languages.
Ease of Use and Site Features
Unlike Imlive, iHeartCams has a simple layout with quick links to all the various types of models available, making it very easy to find the type of performer you are looking for. The home page has large thumbnails of each model which shows them live when you move your mouse over the photo. You will also see their name, rating, current status and a link to their bio, pictures and videos. When you click on the thumbnail you are taken to their chat room where you will see the model and have the opportunity to chat with him or her live for free. And in keeping with IHeartCam’s goal of giving you quick and easy access to the best content, they have implemented a widget on the home page that frequently updates with status messages about hot new content (see the screenshot below). This is a nice touch and a feature that we really like.
In addition to the ability to go into a private chat session with the model, there are a variety of other options as well. We are particularly fond of the happy hour feature where performers provide a show to a group of participants and each person gets to take a turn directing the show. This is a fun and less expensive way to watch a show than a private session. You can also use the sneak peek feature which allows you to watch the models that are in a private session for only 33% of the normal rate of a private chat session. One last feature of note is that iHeartCams allows you to add your top performers to you favorites list and you can also be notified when a particular model goes online.
Show Quality
The video streaming on iHeartCams is on par with most other major sex cam sites. There is the usual variation depending on the quality of the camera and the connection speed that the model has, but for the most part we were pleased with the video streaming. Many models broadcast in high definition and those that do are indicated with an “HD” icon on their thumbnail. Most of the models also have audio capability and we highly recommend looking for those as it ads greatly to the quality of the show.
Price and Value
iHeartCams is very competitively priced compared to other adult chat sites. The site operates on credits which are $1 each, and you’ll pay per minute for private shows. Membership is free, but the standard price for a private nude show is $1.98 a minute, which includes many of the niche performers in the couples and fetish categories. Some of the more prominent hosts can charge up to $3.99 a minute, while porn stars come in at just under $10 a minute. As a reward to its loyal customers, iHeartCams maintains a Frequent Fuckers Club whereby you will earn free credits and deeper discounts as you spend more money. This is a great benefit that works similar to airline frequent flyer programs
For bargain hunters, iHeartCams offers “Happy Hour” chats. There are usually three to five models in these chats at any time and they are typically discounted to $0.99 a minute. Also, using the sneak peek feature will allow you to be a voyeur while you watch a model in a private chat session for just 33% of their normal private chat rate. Finally, IHeartCams provides free credits with every purchase with the number increasing as you purchase more credits.
Because iHeartCams partners with Imlive, you can rest assured that your credit card information is safe. They use CCbill and Epoch.com as payment processors, two of the largest and most reputable e-commerce payment processors on the web. They also utilize the same customer support as Imlive so you can be confident that your questions will be answered quickly.
Conclusion
iHeartCams is a solid sex cam site that provides a great service at a reasonable price. It has a very large and diverse selection of models to choose from and the quality of the video streams is typically very good. Even though iHeartCams is a new vendor in the market, it has the power of Imlive behind it so you can be certain that the site will deliver in terms of performance, customer service and security. There are no monthly recurring charges so you might as well give it a chance. We think you will like what it has to offer.
