faleemi 1080P Webcam with Microphone, USB HD Desktop/Laptop Plug and Play Webcam with Auto Light Correction, Wide Angle for PC/Mac Video Live Streaming, Video Conference, Zoom Meeting

You really cannot beat this camera and mic for the price. Nothing else comes close, price-wise. Absolutely plug and play, no issues, well-designed, super functional, and even can change the focus. Simple, effective. Super satisfied.

There are literally thousands of webcams on the market it seems. Picking one can be daunting. I have purchased several Faleemi IP cameras and all have performed very well, at a very fair price point, so I selected the Faleemi webcam based on my previous success with the brand. This new webcam is an equally solid performer at a very good price point.Upon plugging in the USB, the webcam was recognized instantly on both my Mac OS and Windows 10 laptops. Neither OS had any issues finding or using the camera. I've used it mostly for Windows OS for MS Teams online meetings for a week now and have had zero problems. It meshes well with the various software-generated backgrounds on MS Teams and simply performed flawlessly.The Faleemi has an adjustable focus so it's better than my fixed-focus webcam on laptop, or on my previous Logitech webcam. This is really nice because my monitor setup is a bit farther than the normal setup and this allows me to fine tune the focussing for my individual office. The focus knob has resistance and dampening, so it's easy to adjust the focus and it stays right where you set it. This was actually a surprisingly welcome feature - no jittery, flakey controls. Nice.The angle of view is similar to the laptop webcam (rather wide), and much wider than my former Logitech webcam. I rather like the wider angle of the Faleemi rather than the tighter "head-shot" view of the Logitech. This is just a personal preference, but it works better for me.The image quality is MUCH better than the laptop webcam that came with my work-issued laptop. The Faleemi webcam is much sharper, and much better balanced from a color and contrast perspective. Compared to my previous Logitech webcam, it's also sharper and has more contrast, although the Logitech differences are not quite as apparent. Really, the Logitech image was fine and acceptable; but the Logitech webcam cost about twice what the Faleemi cost. Given the Faleemi has a better image at less cost, this really illustrates the Faleemi's overall value IMHO.All in all I'm really happy with this webcam. It's sharp with a great image and it is at a really good price point (low $30s with a coupon). I've had really good luck with Faleemi cameras in the past and so far, this camera appears to be an equally solid value with great quality. I have no issues recommending this if you need a great webcam at a fair price.

Packaging was simple, but it doesn't need much. The camera is a good size. The mount is perfect for a desktop type mount. For my dual monitor setup, so I could get the camera up high, I just attached the mount to the top of one of my monitors with tape and it worked great. The mount is kind of restrictive at the amount of angles that it can move in if you fix it to a monitor or shelf. It does not swivel or anything, unless you just set it on the desk, then of course it swivels.There was a protective seal around the black ring around the lens but not on the lens itself. I thought that was weird but not a show stopper. The instructions were super simple and they were to snap on the mount, but the mount was already connected. So basically take it out of the box and plug it in. No drivers needed on my Win10 machine.When video conferencing, a red light comes on so you know that the camera is active, and that also gives you something to look at too, so people see you looking at them and you not looking around, down or over. The camera's mic works pretty well. It isn't at the same level as my headset, but I didn't expect it to be, but it works fine. People said I was crystal clear.The picture quality is GREAT. No lag or no blocky vids. It is a really nice camera and works with Microsoft Teams, which is a big deal since several other cameras I have tested do not work with Teams, It also works with other common video conferencing programs as well.It doesn’t have a cover or an easy way to block the lens, so when I am not using it, I just point it at the ceiling.It is a nice web camera and I would recommend it. It was delivered in 2 days, so super quick turnaround.

Pros:-MUCH better video quality than my built-in Macbook camera! Image is clearer, sharper, and somehow more flattering. :)-Great sound!-Easy plug-and-play. Seriously, plug it in and it activates. The only time I had to manually ask my computer to use this Web Cam instead of my laptop cam was when using Facetime. But was very easy to switch in the facetime app on my computer.-Small red light indicates when the camera is activated.-Compact and easily transportable.-Fast delivery.-Great value for your $$$!Cons:-Mounting feature for laptop. When it's securely clipped to the screen, it covers up a portion of the screen (as seen in first photo.) If clipped to the screen the way it's intended to be clipped on, the camera will stay put if you don't move your computer. But if you move the computer, the camera slips downward and you'll need to adjust it mid-use. (See 2nd and 3rd photos.)-USB compatibility. Would be nice if there was a wireless option here. Would love to be able to use the same webcam for my son's distance learning classes via the iPad. But since ipads don't has a USB, we aren't able to share this one with him. Also, not compatible with Macbook Prs, since those don't have USB ports. But, I knew this before purchasing.If I could give it 4.5 stars, I would. It's almost perfect. Still, I would highly recommend for the price and ease of use!
