Microsoft hits different.
This is such a good price for a webcam. It has a privacy screen and it's small and plug and play! I would say it's a great product and perfect for video calls. I don't see any problem with it. The major plus it is Microsoft product! it's official! I suppose what I'm saying is that it is great and a affordable!

Great Except
I purchased this item in order to replace my NexiGo webcam. This camera is much better except for the unavailable microphone, which forced me to buy a separate Microphone Audio dock.

Good Camera. Better when it's on sale!
Excellent alternative to the Logitech C920 webcam. The image quality appears to be superior but, given the fact that the C920 is a 10 year old camera, it's not surprising. Better yet, it is often on sale for cheaper than the C920. Forget the microphone, it's crap. But, then again, they all are at this price point. Just pay the extra and get a good usb mic. I am happy with this purchase.

Perfect for Clear Video Calls and Privacy Protection
The Microsoft Modern Webcam delivers excellent video quality with crisp and clear resolution, making it ideal for professional video calls or virtual meetings. The built-in noise-canceling microphone ensures your voice is heard loud and clear, while the integrated privacy shutter provides peace of mind when you're not using it. Highly recommended for anyone seeking reliability and privacy in their video conferencing setup.

Not horrible, but there are better webcams out there
Meh. I got this webcam after my previous one broke. The picture quality isn't great, the focusing isn't the best, and I see horizontal traveling lines the entire time I am on-screen. There is a privacy shutter, but when I use it, I lose connection and have to unplug the webcam from my computer then plug it in again to restore the connection. Now, I just put a cloth over the camera for privacy when desired.

Outstanding
I have tried so many webcams before now and only found disappointment when they weren't built into something like my laptop of phone.This one manages to be better than I could ever have expected. It captures a wide vista, making it perfect for family facetime or meetings, as well as presentations with a whiteboard. The picture is great and it adjusts well for low-lighting. It doesn't zoom in on you so that all they see is your face, but rather, lets you be visible from the chest & shoulders up.The base is tricky, and probably the worst aspect to the device, but I was able to position it stably atop my monitor. It works a treat with Zoom.I decided to try this one out after it got the #2 rating on Tom's Hardware for the best webcams of 2023. I was not disappointed. The slide-cover is easy to use.One other notable perk of this device is that it can be attached to a standard photography tripod, so if you want to use it for a presentation at a whiteboard or smartboard, or show a group, you absolutely can, without issue.It is as easy as plugging it in to any computer with a USB port.This gets my highest recommendation.

Mac OS Users Beware
This camera is advertised as being certified for Microsoft Teams. I realize this is a $60-$70 camera, so I'm not expecting YouTube quality videos. This is also advertised as compatible with MacOS, which makes sense because Microsoft Teams is cross platform (supports Windows & MacOS & browser).So this sort of works on MacOS. It's plug and play, but the video quality is just horrendous. It's just a pixelated mess that is no better than the horrible built in camera on a MacBook Pro. In fact, I think the built-in camera may be only slightly better.It is stated that you can use the Microsoft Accessory Center software to modify the camera settings to get a better video feed of your environment. However, this is only available for Windows, and not MacOS, so you won't have any controls on the video output. I even tried messing with the camera settings using OBS, but the quality of this product is so poor, OBS wasn't able to do much.Microsoft calls this "Modern Webcam", but there's nothing modern about it.1. Video output is horrendous on MacOS (not very modern)2. Control software is not available on MacOS, like MS Teams is, which is a "Teams Certified Device" (not very modern).3. It's advertised as 1080p at 30 fps. But by looking a the poor output, you would have though it was 480p at 30 fps. It's just that bad, even with fairly decent lighting.Microsoft missed the mark with this one by not making it truly cross platform, like many of their other products. It's advertised as "Certified for Teams", but only if you're on Windows. If you're a MacOS user and are considering this, don't. I certainly regretted this purchase and will be returning ASAP.
