    Webcam picture quality good. Mic is good. Attachment to computer screen works but is NOT secure. Definitely could have done better at the attachment. Install is easy but NO instructions so i had to call the company for help. Customer service was prompt and answered question

    I am ONLY giving 4 stars because it took forever to ship and when I looked for it oline, I had to get assistance from customer service to locate my order. Ask me service did apologise for the technical issue and let me know exactly when to expect my package, which was the next day. Camera is amazing, super clear quality and microphone sounds. I am a new Blogger and this is the perfect addition to my set up, I haven't had any issues yet. It's super easy to set up, and there even some fun background choices as well. I clipped this to the top of my macbook pro. Never felt like it would fall off on its own!

    I am really impressed with the quality on this camera. It will really improve my online meeting presence since the one in my laptop is really bad quality. I really like the feature to blur or change your background on Skype. And the size is just right not too big not too small. I am only giving it 4 stars because I still like the camera on the IPad better. But this is certainly a great addition to my meeting seetup!

    I bought the camera for Zoom meetings and web streaming. It gives great picture resolution and excellent audio. The drawback is it does not support virtual backgrounds. The privacy attachment is convenient with a flip down cover. It’s easily installed with plug and play software.

    Great quality image for video and still. I do wish though that there was a red light or something to inform you when it is on. The always-on feature is the only reason why I dinged it a star. It is a nice upgrade from your built-in laptop camera. Image 1 camera built-in Image 2 Aluratek image. As you can see it is a bit clearer.

    Great Webcam

    Excellent webcam that replaces the camera on my 3 year old HP laptop. It's picture looked like a horizontal sleet storm. I bought specifically for my Meet and Greet with Steve Lukather and Joseph Williams of TOTO on Nov 17, 2020. The picture was surprisingly clear and dual microphones were an added feature. Best Buy Salesperson said this was the best webcam for the money. I agree! Plug and Play! I actually look better on this camera than I do in person.

    I was impressed at how easy it was to set up, did it right before a Zoom call! Stays in focus and with 5 mega pixels the picture is very good. Compact enough to move from site to site and the tripod attachment worked fine. Mine did come with what looks like a security cover for the lens but it appears to be for another model. All in all a decent camera!

    Great picture. Works well with all video camera programs and apps. good quality video, not too narrow of a FOV (field-of-view), or too wide for personal use for 1 to 2 people at a computer screen. The only drawback to this item is the only barely passable sound from the microphone, however, I have an external for sound, and did not expect much.

    Awesome camera for the price! Used daily for work/team/zoom web video calls and conferences. Auto focus is spot on. As is the color correction when background lighting changes! The 2K HD at this price can’t be beat!

    A NECESSITY DURING PANDEMIA ONLINE MEETINGS

    This AWC2KF webcam is all you need during these lockdown time when all your gatherings have to be online. If you want crisp, clear and the best image of yourself, you have to go for this little webcam that is huge in performance. Built-in laptop webcams are poor quality, that's why buying a clip on webcam is a most. is super easy to install, just plug in and voilá, you're ready to go. Just remember to disable your laptop integrated webcam and you'll see the difference in quality image. The microphone works great. Love the compact size, as is easy to fit in laptop case or bag. The autofocus works to perfection. You can always choose between auto or manual focus. It even has a document mode, not too sure for what, but I'll keep exploring this little amazing webcam.

    I usually never give 5 stars for anything because that assumes perfection which is impossible. That said I went to buy a different webcam with an integrated microphone & it was as out of stock so I chose this one reluctantly. I did save about $10 though which was cool. This webcam has been pretty good. The only complaint I have about it is that it uses double sided tape to attach to your monitor or whatever you decide you’d like to mount it to. So if you want or need to move it make sure you have a good supply of double sided tape on hand. Otherwise I have no complaints. I took all my state insurance license exam using it & have used it for no less than 3 video conferences for work. It does what it’s supposed to do. The video/audio quality seems to be good & stable. No issues. A great buy for the $$ & likely just as good as much more expensive models. Setting it up was no issue in the least. Quite an easy process.

    Amazingly simple. Plugged it into my Windows 10 computer and in seconds it was up and running. Beautiful, clear and crisp picture. Neat features and very easy to use. You do not have to be a geek to operate this webcam with professional results. Also, Best Buy was great. I ordered this online, drove over to the store, checked in from the parking lot, and in less than 3 minutes, they brought it out to my car and I was on my way back home! The way business should be done to keep you coming back!
