Razer - Kiyo Webcam

I bought this to use for Google Hangouts video meetings. I was a little apprehensive about buying this at first, because there are a lot of video reviews on YouTube that mention poor audio quality. But it was the only webcam available, so I bought it. I'm glad I did - it seems Razer has made some significant improvements on it since its original release. Audio quality is more than fine for meetings (obviously not as nice as a dedicated USB microphone), and I didn't have to bump up the microphone audio input volume with Windows. Video quality is also quite good, the picture is sharp and colors are vibrant. They can be tuned with Razer Synapse, but I found that to be unnecessary. Some old reviews also mentioned that the LED ring could not be turned off - this is not true anymore, the ring can certainly be disabled. Plug and play worked on Windows, the webcam worked out of the box.

Terrific value as a standard. Light can twist control light volume from 0 to full on. As odd as the bottom mechanism seems, it's very position-able on a laptop or monitor. This thing is plug and play ready and works with OBS to your common webcam options automatically, but can be further tweaked with Razer Synapse. Excellent resolution and, along with the Logitech 920, is a standard of quality with the benefit of a beauty ring for more light. Keep in mind this webcam is best featured for personal web broadcasts that feature one or two people max. You'll want to get something with a wide lens like 920e or Logitech Brio to get wide. But that has more to do with what you'll be broadcasting. ie, if you do personal broadcasts, you don't want to show the whole spectrum of the room behind you (dead space); but if you want to show a ton of people or feature a nature background, then you'll want a wide angle type of webcam instead.

Easy to set up and use, light ring is nice feature. This webcam I bought on sale and with rewards I bought for around 80 USD. Not mad about the purchase. There are better quality cameras out there for those that care about seeing individual hair strands, but on stream it looks great.

The camera set up easily and has worked with all of the videoconferencing softwares I use on two computers. Easy to switch from one to the other. The effect is much brighter than the laptop camera I had been using.

Bought this to start doing some more serious streaming and it lives up to the billing. The image is crystal clear and the lighting adaptations are really top notch. I haven't tried the mic function because I'm using a YETI Nano...but if you're looking for quality at a reasonable price....this is a good choice

My work computer doesn’t have a camera nor microphone. The Razor webcam serves its purpose. It’s easy to set up and use. The light is great for a dark room.

Needed a webcam for both work and being stuck at home and it works great. It took a long time to find one but made the hour round trip to pick it up. Plug and play. Pic is clear and smooth. Light ring is great to keep my face bright when all other lights are off.

The web camera is great. The lightning is what sold me on this camera. I have other web cameras, but this one works well with good resolution and picture quality. It puts my laptop webcam to shame. I highly recommend this web camera.
