Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to install - just plug it in. No problems installing it, works well with windows 7. And use it regularly with skype.

Cons

The clip at the bottom clips to most laptops or anything that has solid square edges but other than that i felt it should have a separate way of attaching to other surfaces such as a classic screw hole that are seen on actual digital cameras and other similar equipment as this would make the use of it more improved

Other than that i think this webcam is a nice camera for starting out but in time you will need to look further a field for a much better high end quality camera which actually streams or records hd video as im not entirely convinced that this does what it claims to

It has led lights on the front but i found them a little bright to look at but you can just use the scroll wheel on the cable to turn them off
