    Slipping off

    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.

    I got this for various devices, worked great for my old Alienware laptop. Not so good for newer Dell laptop cover was too big for screen and would not close properly. Piece of tape would have worked better, Did not even attempt on my iPad mini.

    I love the idea of this camera guard. But it does not work with this computer. I have face recognition and light on either side to help with face recognition. The way this works is to slide the blocker back and forth. When the camera is exposed the light is blocked. Great Idea that does not work with this computer.

    Easy to use but the item could barely stick to my MacBook Pro 2016. All three came off eventually and had to be tossed to the trash. Not what I was expecting. I do not recommend this product.

    Too flimsy and cheap

    This product is so flimsy I would not recommend buying. Its such thin plastic that it popped apart when taking out the package. The sliding door is held in by tiny plastic tabs. In order to attach the spy guard to your computer there you peel off some paper and it reveals some glue on the back of the plastic. But when peeling the paper off the spy guard slider popped off again. Spend an extra couple of dollars and buy something that will hold together.

    Definitely not worth it. I would rather buy a generic one on Amazon. Got this for my surface pro and it keeps sliding back and forth. Flimsy product and design.

    Description states 3 pack black but is actually, 1 black, 1 grey and 1 white. Very flimsy made. Would not recommend this product. Starting to feel like I shouldn't recommend Best Buy.

    If you're worried about who might be looking at you through your webcam a product like this could it be just the thing to physically block the webcam from seeing you. Unfortunately the adhesive fails overtime.

    The tape that attaches the cover is not strong enough for the insignificant weight of the product. It is built very flimsy and may not last very long. I think a post it note might work as well.
