Windows hello webcam and also works on a mac
on March 23, 2022

Bought this camera for zoom/team calls . A few things to note:
1. This webcam works on a mac. I've been looking for a webcam for a wfh setup and saw issues with Logitech products where they have compatibility issues with monterey. I tested my luck with this one and it worked (at least on zoom and teams). However, If you try to use the camera on Facetime then it won't work as it'll just show up in black and white with very blurry images. There is also a free app (CameraController) on github that you can download to adjust your camera settings, again the image will show black and white like on Facetime but the setting adjustments still work, you can just turn on zoom and see the changes there.
2. This webcam is 720p at 30fps, at least that's how it's performing on zoom. I was able to get 1080p using my cellphone as a camera on the same zoom call so it's not a zoom limitation.
3. Windows hello works! Which is really neat given the price point. Closest equivalent for windows hello would be the Brio which is over $200.
4. The privacy shutter is awesome, which is built in and you can control with a simple slider on the top of the webcam, one key reason for purchasing this webcam, other products on the market with clip on privacy shutters just look awful.

Overall, 3 for performance given it's only 720p instead of 1080p despite the name claiming to be FHD. If it's the hardware is capable but lacking software then Lenovo needs to fix that. I tried this on windows as well and only getting 720p, so it's not a OS issue. 4 for features given the windows hello capability, built-in privacy shutter, but really lack software to support this product comparing to other vendors like Logitech. 4 for value if you can get this on sale, would not rate 4 if this is at original listing price until they make it 1080p. 5 for reliability for now as I did not run into any issues with it so far, very easy plug and play webcam.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought an all in one computer online that came with a really cheap webcam. I love the reliability of Lenovo products so I searched their site for a camera that had both HD and the Windows Hello Secure Sign In capability WHILE being within my price range. I found this camera and started looking up reviews on youtube. When I was confident it was the one for me, I placed my order. I've been really happy with this camera every since. I log into my PC just by sitting in front of it and the image quality when video conferencing is superb. :)
