Great camera for MS Teams calls
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This is a great little webcam. I was tired of dealing with using my laptop camera now that i work from home. The setup on this camera was easy and the picture and sound are great. No complaints that i sound like i am in a wind tunnel. It sits securely on top of my monitor and it’s easy to slide the cover on it and keep it closed when you don’t want to accidentally be on camera.

Great camera for beginners
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.With work from home the standard now, I needed a camera for work. I use a dock for the laptop and two monitors and so can't use the camera built into the laptop easily. I needed this for MS Teams and it works great. Easy setup, clipped it right to the top of my monitor in seconds and plug and play USB with the camera. Up and running in less than 5 minutes.

A good alternative to Logitech
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Like many, I wanted to purchase a Logitech webcam for use with my new Mac Mini. But since there’s no supply, I decided to ty the Avermedia PW313. Most of the reviews are from people who use Windows machines, so they weren’t much help in making a decision. My Mac Mini has a quad-core i3 processor, 16 GB of memory, and an Intel UHD graphics 630, so I wasn’t sure how it would perform with the Avermedia PW313 webcam. I purchased the webcam for $80, which I think is on the high side given that it only has fixed focus, mono mics, and a 2 MP camera. It does have a privacy cover and tripod mount, however, which I like. The camera is advertised as being plug-and-play and compatible with Mac OS Catalina. After plugging it in to the USB 2 port, I followed the instructions on the Avermedia website to determine if the webcam was recognized by the system and if the built-in mics were working. Worked as advertised! I also downloaded the CamEngine Lite software, which can be used to adjust picture quality. Following the directions on the website, it too worked as advertised. Finally, I tested the webcam on Zoom and FaceTime, and it seems to work well on both. The mics clearly picked up my voice. Initially, I thought the video was overexposed, but I was able to improve it to an acceptable level using the CamEngine Lite software. Bottom line is the Avermedia PW313 webcam is a sleek looking device that attaches securely to my monitor. It proved to truly be plug-and-play with my Mac Mini running the Catalina OS. It has a wide field of view with decent picture and sound quality suitable for use with Zoom and FaceTime. Given that Logitech devices are not available, at a reasonable price, I would recommend the Avermedia PW313 as an alternative.

check video's first
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This webcam is great just disregard most of the instructions. Look for the webcam on Youtube and there are some that give you better instructions to make this web cam work to it's fullest potential

Perfect Webcam to better connect with PEOPLE!
||Posted .Owned for 1 year when reviewed.Awesome webcam for great webchats and web conferences. Once you start using this (from a built-in laptop/MacBook camera) you will see what you have been missing.

Had a False Start But Flawless Since
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.When I first installed this webcam, it worked fine on MS Teams, Skype and GoToMeeting. But on Zoom calls, it flickered badly to the point of unusability. Then I gave up for a weekend went away, and on the Monday it worked fine on Zoom and everything else. Home run.

Works like it's supposed to!
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Note that tilting the camera is a bit janky because there's not built-in tilt, and the hinge at the back is a bit weak. But other than that, works a it's suppose to.

Tech upgrade first timer - It works very well!
||Posted .I enrolled for online courses with Macomb Community College. My desktop kept saying the device I needed was not detected for my ZOOM class - no video and no mic. A brother from my church came over to double check my system and confirmed that I needed to purchase a video/mic device. The AVerMedia was the only one available to purchase. I plugged it in for my Thursday evening class and everyone could see me and hear me! I'm very pleased and excited about my Live Streamer CAM 313!

Great webcam
||Posted .Owned for 1 year when reviewed.When webcams were totally not available due to covid-closures, this webcam was the only decent product in-stock. Works great with Windows 10 devices/computers. I installed the custom software, but it works just fine with Windows default drivers.

Easy Set up
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Great webcam for dong zoom meetings/calls. It's a "plug/play" device with no set up required. I use it to conduct a bootcamp class in an exercise room. Here are my pro's and con's: Pro's: 1. Easy set up, fast. 2. Good to average video quality 3. Audio is ok as long as you are in front of computer. Since I'm teaching a class, I'm on the move in front of my computer, but constantly moving 5 to 10 feet away from webcam/computer. Therefore audio is ok, and sometimes cuts out. Con's: 1. Audio is my only major "con." And I think it's not fair of me to rate this as a "con" because I'm about 5 to 10 feet away from webcam/computer as I am teaching a bootcamp class via zoom. Whenever I move in close to the webcam to adjust something, and I happen to be speaking, the audio is great. But once I move back away from webcam, audio is ok, but as mentioned earlier, it sometimes cuts out. Conclusion, I bought this because I was not happy with quality of my laptop's webcam, and wanted a "step-up." I would recommend this webcam for doing things like zoom or where you are in front of your computer. I like that it is very easy to use and set up.

||Posted .The set was easy enough. The ability to rotate the camera and reposition it was the priority and works well. The camera look is much improved over my built in computer camera.

Great camera but not what I needed
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I bought this item for my granddaughter and I'm only giving it 4 stars because she said it was a good streaming camera, however it was not what she needed to make her videos. Unfortunately I had to return it.

Just a regular webcam-no better.
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This is a good webcam for just that, A WEBCAM! I was under the impression it had higher quality video than most webcams to use for recording video for YouTube and others. It's not higher quality video. Don't get me wrong, it's great for Zoom and others for school and work but nothing else. BTW, there is no software to adjust your camera settings for the Mac like they have for Windows (it is supposed to be coming). I returned then webcam for a refund.
