No, No, No, No! best in my review

I bought these to accomodate some newer laptops with a webcam and a facial recognition camera right next to each other. Half of the buttons were broken. When you try to "close" the cover by sliding the magnetic button the whole thing would slide on the glass screen. The button did not slide smoothly. The button is not captured except by magnetism. Pretty much worthless for this use. I cannot imagine it working any better on smaller devices such as smartphones, etc.

Pros
  • Perfect!
Cons
  • Decreases the aesthetic appeal of your device

Privacy While On Hold For Video Conferences

I like to dial into video conferences ahead of time, but don't like the idea of the cam showing my space before I'm ready. This allows me to remain private until I'm ready to reveal. I also like that this is discreet vs. paper over the camera which draws attention to it.The only con is that I found it a little hard to position as it's very tiny. Some form of applicator would be nice.

Pros
  • Exactly what I thought it would be. Great for cell service phone camera!
Cons
  • The adhesive is terrible. The cover fell off within 2days. Don’t waste your money

Idea is good, product was not

The glue didn’t stick, seemed to be old or left in intense sun. Didn’t work, felt down after a couple days May not guarantee complete privacy against advanced surveillance techniques.

Pros
  • It is incredibly versatile, fitting all types of devices and easily adaptable to any situation, making it a must-have accessory
Cons
  • May not guarantee complete privacy against advanced surveillance techniques

Adhesive is weak: my feedback

The covers last about three months on my tablet, which rarely gets stuffed in a bag and jumbled around with other stuff. After having two let go, I'm switching to another product. These silver ones have stayed on my phone and laptop for nearly a year so far.

Pros
  • This product is easy to install and works as promised
Cons
  • i've used 3 of them, and 2 of them don't work very well

Not for use with high-traffic electronics. Magnet cover falls off easily. Product does not maintain grip to device if met with any resistance.

Pros
  • Computers & Accessories
Cons
  • May be inconvenient to slide open or closed every time the camera is needed

So far, so good. - my new review

Purchased these after the ones from ProTech Privacy would not stay on my phone or tablet. These are flatter so sliding phone and tablet in and out of handbag pockets and tablet case haven’t knock them off. To be fair, I haven’t had a problem with the ProTech Privacy one on my laptop.

Pros
  • These covers can be a great gift for anyone who values their privacy and security
Cons
  • May impair facial recognition technology if present on the device

Broke As Soon As I Opened Them

First one broke literally as I was taking it off the card backing. These couldn't possibly be lower quality. May attract dust and debris over time!

Pros
  • Strong 3M Adhesive Tape:
Cons
  • May attract dust and debris over time

Very happy with this product. It seems better than the Unitedtime brand I was using as the adhesive is stronger and the amount of surface area to adhere is larger as the ring is thicker. It fits the iPhone X perfectly allowing FaceID to still work while the front facing camera is covered (FaceID does not use the front facing camera) and the ring fits perfectly in-between the FaceTime sensors (install encircling speaker grill).

Pros
  • Sunshot's Ultra Thin Webcam Cover offers a simple solution to protect your privacy in today's digital age
Cons
  • May cause users to inadvertently touch the camera lens while attempting to close the cover
