EMEET SmartCam C960 2K

nice

I use this webcam in my home office for online meetings and interviews. This webcam provides a very clear image on video calls. The dual noise reduction microphones provide clear audio, and the privacy cover is a big plus as it provides an extra layer of security. There is no app needed for installation, and I just plug it into the USB port on my computer, and it's ready to go. I have tried Zoom, Skype, and FaceTime, and so far, it works great. This webcam is an excellent choice for anyone who needs a good quality webcam for work or personal use.

?Privacy is an important concern, and I appreciate the included privacy cover. It allows me to easily cover the lens when the webcam is not in use, giving me peace of mind knowing that my privacy is protected.
Setting up the webcam was a breeze. It is a plug-and-play device, meaning there is no need for additional drivers or software installation. Simply connect it to a USB port on your laptop or desktop, and it is ready to use. This convenience makes it ideal for both professional and personal use.
The build quality of the webcam is excellent. It feels sturdy and well-made, ensuring its durability and longevity. The adjustable clip allows for easy attachment to my laptop or desktop monitor, and it holds the webcam securely in place.

The EMEET C960 webcam produces considerably better video and audio than my previous webcam. There are a few features of the webcam that I really appreciate. The privacy lens cover is a welcomed addition, although I do wish it was integrated into the camera instead of being a stick on. The standard 1/4-20 mounting socket for tripod use gives plenty of extra options for mounting the camera. And the autofocus function is just wonderful. It allows me to hold an object up close to the camera and have the camera focus on it which wasn't possible with my previous webcam. Now instead of just trying to verbally describe an object I can show it to the person on the other end of my video call.

I tried installing the downloaded EMEET software on both a Windows 7 and a Windows 10 computer. The install failed on the Windows 7 computer but completed with no issues on the Windows 10 computer. Running the software allows control of the standard camera functions such as brightness, contrast, and white balance. Unfortunately there is no control on this webcam for a zoom function as there is no digital zoom. The field of view is set at ~90 degrees and cannot be changed.

The webcam produces good video, good audio, and incorporates some additional features. It's not a top of the line webcam but for the price of $40 at the time of this review it is certainly worth giving it some consideration.

?With COVID, we were moved online and as the pandemic ended, the world never moved fully back in person. This mic and camera set is perfect for online conferences and Zoom meetings. The camera quality is a little grainy but it works well. The built in microphone saves money since there is no need to buy a separate mic. I love the fact that there is a camera cover as that protects my privacy.
