Look for a cheap Logitech camera if you want quality. Those unbranded ones will not be great and probably wont last either. Logitech do a huge range from budget, mid-range to high end so this is where I would start.

Thanks for the suggestion but I've already tried using my phone as a webcam using the Droidcam app. It worked, however my phone got too hot after an hour.

Thanks. I'll look for an entry level Logitech Webcam then. Got a good impression of Logitech products.

Agree. I did tried to find before on AliExpress but end up bought the Logitech HD Webcam C615.

Hope you found your webcam

If not, you can consider the Hikvision DS-E12 which I recently reviewed.
The Hikvision DS-E12 is about SGD 22 from Taobao.

Found it to be a really good webcam for the money - 1080p Full HD output, 88 degrees FOV, and omnidirectional noise reduction microphone! The quality of the microphone is really quite good, more than adequate for work.

You can read more about it here if you are interested.

Full HD under $50 are impossible as most are 720p unless you source online.
Cheap webcam like from China etc. their picture quality can be dark and grainy.
Cheapest I can suggest is Logitech C310.

Take note locally webcam stocks are limited with very few models.

I bought hd pro c920 for 139.
I bought a cheap webcam previously and the picture sucked. This is much better.

If you just want something cheap, can consider this Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p webcam. It has Full HD at 30fps.

It's selling for $59 at their online store.
