This webcam got decent reviews from other sources on the internet. The price was right and I didn't need a fancy webcam with features I would never use. I just wanted it to communicate with my son and daughter. It set up easily with SightSpeed and Skype.My only complaint is the clip that is used to attach it to your notebook. It isn't flexible enough to make a secure contact. I have a Lenovo ThinkPad and the rim around the screen is too thick for the webcam's clip.Other than that, it works fine.
