    A cheap solution for privacy, with some cons

    Does the job, though flimsy. No friction in the slider means a good bump could open the camera up unintentionally.

    These webcam covers serve their purpose but only last so long until they fall off. Worth the low price though.

    It covers the camera, but the slide is very loose and moves on it's own a lot, so I catch it open quite often; not the best for security.

    Unfortunately this wasn't a good fit for the MacBook Pro. It is too wide from top to bottom so it cuts into part of the screen, and is to thick when closing the laptop.

    I bought these to put on my HP Spectre 2 in 1 laptop, and 1) they do not stick very well at all, and 2) the flap that is supposed to move to reveal the camera is working a little TOO well and just leaving the camera exposed. It works some of the time, and for how cheap it is I really can’t complain though.
