ZIQIAN 1080P Webcam with Microphone, USB Web HD Camera for PC, Laptop&Mac

This webcam is of real high quality and I am very happy with my purchase. The small screens on the laptops and chrome books were giving my kids a big eyestrain every day and I wanted them to use big screen monitors. It is so odd but the monitors I bought didn’t come with a camera. So, the kids had to still open up their laptops so the teachers could see them. I wanted them to just rely on the monitors alone so I purchased this webcam and hooked on top the monitor. Now they can just connect their laptops to the monitor and keyboard and just leave it closed and away from their desks. The webcam will pick up the video and transmit it. The video resolution is superb and the it transmits very nice videos better than their chrome books/laptop. It also picks up your voice. when you talk online. Attaching the camera is pretty easy and it doesn’t take up space on top of the monitor. The webcam has a small shutter and it can be closed to ensure more privacy when not in use. The camera itself is adjustable which is a pretty nice feature and we don’t constantly have to shift the big monitor to adjust the video.

Little disappointed with the first purchase of a webcam. Decided to try a different version and NexiGo 90-Degree Wide Angle 1080P Webcam with Microphone & Privacy Cover; was that choice. This webcam was so crystal clear, people could see everything around so clear. It made me look good. When I used it with ZOOM. I placed one of my favorite photos up as a virtual background and it was a sight to see. This was just on the Standard Settings. Nexigo 1080P Webcam with Microphone & Privacy Cover has Standard and HDR Settings and both provide superior views that are just stunning. This is a Highly Recommended, Must have Webcam for all that you can imagine it will present

Its nice and it works

The picture is clear and focused on the person sitting in front of the monitor, plus the microphone sound quality is also very good. This is perfect for Zoom, etc. The plastic edge around my monitor is less than 1/8" (closer to 2mm) thick while the back of the monitor rapidly flares outwards which seems less than optimal. However, the camera clamps securely on without any pressure on the screen itself. (See photo). Even if there had been a problem, this camera comes with a flexible tripod and the included USB cable is 3 feet long, so locating it elsewhere would not have been a problem. I'm on Windows 11 and this just plugged straight in and worked right off the bat. Zero setup required. The only "work" you need to do is decide whether you want the privacy flap to be installed. If you do, it's a ring that simply slips over the lens cylinder and sticks to the camera body. For $20 this is a no brainer.

microphone is bad, picture is good. Had it for over a year, and now it intermittently will shut itself off

Bad quality

Don't buy it. I bought two and both broke the same way, the cable going into the back got loose until it broke. Waste of money.

I bought this so I did not have to pull out my laptop every time I needed to get on a meeting. It works amazing. It comes in clear in video and sound. It comes with a mini tripod for using on the desk but it's also designed to sit on a monitor. It does not tighten enough to clamp, so you would want to make sure not to move your monitor around, or use a spacer to keep it tight on the monitor. However, it is also lined with a rubber material so it sits up there fine, even if you can't tighten. It's small which is perfect for a small desk space. For the cost it's a great plug and go solution!

I’ve been using the ZIQIAN 1080P Webcam for a while now, and I’m really impressed with the quality. The video is clear and sharp, making it perfect for live streaming, video calls, and online meetings. The setup was super easy—just plug and play with no extra drivers needed. The built-in microphone also picks up sound well without needing a headset. For the price, this webcam delivers excellent performance and reliability. Highly recommended!

Got this for $20 on Amazon - yes $20... amazed at the value for money the quality of the camera is great, some feedback: 1/ It's a wide angle (ie fish bowl style) picture looks great, just it gets more of the whole room in so be aware of that vs the flat mac camera 2/ the quality is crisp and clear 3/ it's easy to setup, the USB slot needs to be powered so I couldn't use the USB bank i had, i had to plug it directly into the macbook 4/ the lights at the top no way to turn them off so it's a bit annoying with a strong red and green light there. 5/ the latch you attach and it sticks up when opened which is a bit annoying 6/ the stand is good and solid. Overall, a 4/5, but for $20, it's a 5/5, can't beat the price vs quality. It serves the purpose, definitely would not fork out the crazy prices for the logitech cameras out there, this is perfect for the intended purpose. Also i was concerned with it intruding onto my monitor, but it's perfect and works well.

I have a work machine that has the inbuilt camera in the screen. Due to setting up a docking station i usually close the lid and due dual screens. I needed a camera that was cheap and that would work seamlessly. If you expect to produce the next Hollywood block buster on this unit, then you are mistaken. Its a 2mp camera that docks to the top of my screen with blu-tack and has a privacy cover. I plugged it into the PC and within 10 seconds it self set up and worked seamless. I changed the settings on my machine to use the camera mic and set up the settings for video on the machine and it has been working seamless since install. There was a tripod that is not sitting in my filing cabinet. Would i recommend, yes. The picture isn't the best, however, for the price it is absolutely worth the money.

I originally bought this ZIQIAN 1080P webcam during the pandemic when everything suddenly went virtual and webcams were sold out everywhere. It ended up being a great find at the time, and surprisingly, I’m still using it in 2026—so it’s clearly held up well over the years. Setup was simple and straightforward with USB plug-and-play, and it’s worked consistently for video calls, meetings, and general use. One feature I really appreciate is the built-in microphone. The audio quality is perfectly fine for calls and meetings, and it’s convenient not needing a separate microphone cluttering up my desk. This webcam is especially useful if you use a laptop with an external monitor. The mount feature is useful because it just sits on top of the monitor and doesn’t fall easily. If you like being able to keep your laptop closed and still hop on video calls without any hassle, this would work great. The wide 110-degree viewing angle is nice too—it captures enough of the frame without needing to constantly adjust the camera. Video quality is decent but not exceptional. This is why I give it a 4/5 star. It’s clear enough for professional video calls, conferencing, and casual streaming, but it’s not meant for high-end content creation. That said, it absolutely does the job it’s intended for. If you need to record higher end videos or stream, this may not be the quality for you. One of my favorite features is the physical privacy shutter. I don’t like leaving webcams exposed when they’re not in use, so being able to physically close the lens gives extra peace of mind from a security standpoint. Overall, this has been a dependable, long-lasting webcam that’s proven its value over time. It’s not flashy, but it’s reliable, practical, and continues to meet my needs years after purchase.

Hubby said he knew which camera he wanted. Staples had run out and amazon’s price was crazy! Then we noticed this camera, read the reviews and decided to give it a try - after all, so many people liked it so they can’t all be wrong! I can confirm that it was (apparently) easy to install, the picture quality is good, the camera sits on top of the screen - so (once again - apparently) no more up the nose shots ...eeeew! It’s a good buy, great price and would recommend it. The pictures on amazon led us to believe that it would be a big chunky camera, thankfully it is a neat and small enough. Quick, reliable delivery with Prime.
