Our take on the Piskekat Amcrest 1080P Webcam with Microphone & Privacy Cover

The Piskekat Amcrest is a plug-and-play USB webcam that records 1080p video through a 70-degree lens and has a built-in microphone and a sliding privacy cover. It is a basic, budget-minded camera for video calls, online classes and casual streaming. It lacks autofocus, a tripod thread and any software suite, so it sits below name-brand 1080p cams on flexibility. Buyers who just need a clear picture for meetings will find it adequate; anyone wanting sharp close-ups or low-light quality should look higher.

Questions and answers

Does this webcam work with Zoom, Teams and Google Meet?
Yes. It is a standard USB video class device, so it works in Zoom, Teams, Meet and most other apps without extra drivers.
Does it have autofocus?
No. The lens is fixed focus, tuned for a person sitting about arm's length away. Close-up text will look soft.
Is the microphone good enough for calls?
It is fine for one person at a desk in a quiet room. In an echoey room or near a fan, a headset mic will sound better.
Can I mount it on a tripod?
No. It has a folding clip for monitors and laptops but no tripod thread, so tripod use needs an adapter.
What comes in the box?
The webcam with its attached USB cable and clip mount. No stand, adapter or software disc is included.
Does the privacy cover work while the camera is in use?
The shutter slides over the lens to block the view. Slide it open before a call or the other side sees black.
Where is the Piskekat Amcrest 1080P Webcam with Microphone & Privacy Cover cheapest?
