Simple and effective. Not the best reception, but if you want to just let the other person watch or record videos without too much hassle, this will do. The picture is fine, the plate too. Build quality is about what you'd expect - it's well built with inexpensive materials. I didn't expect it to last a lifetime, but it won't fall apart if you leave it unattended in a book bag (although I wouldn't). Overall, it's worth the price more than I expected.
