This is the best explanation of the differences in webcams I've come across. I just bought a Brio and I feel like I can get the best quality from it thanks to your excellent information. Thanks.
OK, wow. This review is simply amazing. Thank you. I know last year when I was researching webcams, it took a lot of digging around to find useful information. I did not have any problem toggling the HDR in the Logitech Brio. I used the Logitech camera settings app on my Mac and it does make a difference. My office is setup with a back-lit situation, and I can't really move the desk around. But, of course, the best answer there is to simply get a light. The Lumecube panel kicks out enough to compensate and give a great picture.
Right on, next time I am able to, I'll test using the Brio HDR in the same lighting environment as the Kiyo Pro was (back lit) to check out the results. Thanks for watching!
Watching Webcam comparisons for the last 3 hours. By far (!) the most analytic and professional comparison I came across! And that OBS information might even just have saved me the money to upgrade my old Logitech C920 since it looks way better in OBS than it ever did before with Linux and it might be just good enough actually. THANKS!
That was awesome, incredibly comprehensive and helpful, thank you! Perfect review and comparison, really well thought through and presented; an absolute masterclass.
This is what’s called a comprehensive articulate and engaging video. Waaaay too many RUclips videos are by people who think, “I have a Camera and You Tube, therefor I’m a reviewer, or analysts or SME..... Please don’t do too many more of these- I can’t take too much high quality work! Laughs- Cheers. Thank You
BRO!!! I've been researching webcams for a while now and youtube is full of rubbish reviewers EXCEPT FOR YOU!... Your reviews answer nearly ALL the questions one needs to make a decision. Even if you don't answer it upfront, the video and audio stream from the webcams answers it for you. Most other reviewers just straight up show webcam video/audio for like 10seconds and think their work is done. They show a 4k "30"fps choppy video running like 10FPS and NEVER MENTION THE ISSUE. I can't believe it took me so long to find you on youtube... Subsrcibed, i'm not letting you go now! :D Thank you.
This review put to shame all other ones I have watched from all known big web portals. Fantastic job! Thanks for putting so much effort and details in your review.
I don't want to be too technical, however, the main difference between YUY2 and MJPEG is the chroma subsampling, YUY2 uses 4:2:2 pixel format (less color compression) and MJPEG uses 4:2:0 (more color compression), the more compression you have, the less detail you might get, your images might look too soft, etc; this is why you see tese differences. The best is when you have 4:4:4 (no compression), this is the equivalent to RAW in photos. Thanks for the video.
Thank you. I purchase these for my corporate charges. I was placing an order today (the old Kiyo's I got years ago are starting to break from high use) and needed some reference. I decided to go with the Kiyo Pro because these people are not tech gurus , but need to "look good" when talking to clients without all the setting adjusting.
While I may not agree with all of your judgements and conclusions (like the opinion on sharpness), you do provide an excellent comparison material for making one's own opinion - and that is a thing most welcome. You are also the first channel reviewing Kiyo Pro that I have seen that dared to go deeper into the flaws of the HDR mode - I had zero idea such motionblurry artifacting could take place, and I had watched... around 5+ reviews of that device prior to watching this video.
Right on. My main goal is to function as more of a resource and demonstrate the products rather than push one or the other (though I do I have strong opinions on them all). I'd like people to be able to make a decision even if they mute the entire video.
thank you, a really worthwhile review and comparison, not like some bloggers just read the characteristics from the site and talk about the external design
Damn. Fantastic review and the best I've seen comparing these webcams. Thanks for this! I finally know which webcam would work best for me instead of having to guess! The different lighting situations were particularly useful since I use Zoom in all sorts of variable lighting, and accurate color is SUPER important. Kiyo Pro for me!
I picked up a Brio the other day and similarly noticed that HDR doesn't seem to do anything, but have since discovered that all it is doing is toggling the "Backlight compensation" setting on and off (aka 0 for off, 1 for on). It's really not HDR at all, just seems to darken the whole image a little bit if it determines you are backlit (or it does nothing if you're not).
Great comparison! Just picked up the Kio Pro for $80 after tax on Prime Day. Although the Brio seems to check the most of your boxes, I'd consider the Kiyo Pro a win if it's almost half the price. (Plus I think I like the skin tones more on the Kiyo Pro.)
Great review and thanks for you thoughts! Really amazing comparison of all the main webcams. I'm probably going Kiyo Pro, but that's mostly because it's on sale right now for $100. The Brio is still at $150, and I think the price / performance on the Kiyo pro can't be beat. And I already have a regular Kiyo so I'm already dealing with Razer Synapse software! Thanks so much for the detailed and comprehensive review!
thanks man ! appreciate how far into it you went with the comparison ! have decided to go with the Kiyo Pro myself , i have a lighting set up and i use my own mic , so the downsides i can make up for
this is an incredibly awesome evaluation - thanks for creating this content and staying current... seriously appreciate the way you chose to do this eval... nice work Sir...
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews now if only I could choose between the kiyo pro and brio... I dislike the color of the wall behind you in both the logitech cameras - to me (imo) the best color was consistently with the kiyo pro... I didn't notice the orange coloring on any of my monitors watching your video but I did notice this reddish / maroonish tint in the logitech cameras that seemed very prominent... I did think the brio handled lighting better in a lot of cases... Gotta pull the trigger today - ughhh.... Leaning towards the kiyo pro at the moment... Tell me I'm wrong and why! Please! Lol
@@iam2loki4u Yep, the Logitech cameras definitely have extra red. Since colors are out of the way, I'd say it's down to whether you want 4K or are ok with 1080p. 4K, Brio. 1080p, Kiyo Pro.
dude this is such a well done review. I've got a job interview coming up next week for remote work and this is exactly what I needed to choose my webcam.
@@ensi1645 bought the kiyo pro on amazon (used) for $54. 1 year later still going strong. using a dedicated mic so can't speak to audio quality. software is a bit annoying but the video quality is great and it works well in a variety of lighting conditions.
I've been looking for a video just like this, a wide-range of different webcams so that you have more of a choice. Thanks for the review man, and keep up the good work!
Very interesting review stretching them to the limits, and trying to extract the best they can do. But try making a better lighting on your scenario like a backlight, warm adjustments, left/right light with different intensity and you`ll see that they look pretty sharp and won't differ that much. ✌
Good video thanks. I think you might find you have a lot of success if you do a video on which web cams are best for budget head tracking in games. Star Citizen in particular has a lot of users who might not afford the Tobii but want to use head or eye tracking. Just a thought :)
best comparison I found on the internet
which do u thinkis the best bc i want 1 of these
@@shazzzz brio
@@DragonofStorm what about between razer kiyo pro / streamcam
Same here, liked and subscribed
This is BY FAR the best webcam comparison I've seen.
Thank you so much for being so precise and nice to share your tests.
Take care !
Totally. Fascinating HDR demo. The Kiyo Pro really works.
Dang this is like, EXACTLY what I needed! Thanks for the incredible detail!
I've seen all the Logitech Streamcam reviews and yours (both videos) are by far the best. Keep them coming!
That's a lot of reviews! Thanks for watching.

**Specs on the Brio should say 4K 30 and 1080p 60 FPS.

You've just earned a new subscriber with your superior review! Keep up the good work with your thorough reviews.
dude, your comparisons are awesome. that's how people should do comparisons, side by side by side by side actual footage of the webcam LOL. thanks!

I actually just scooped the kiyo today for a buddy of mine to finally get into streaming recording. $20 on clearance. Hell of a deal
These are SO clear. And you're super comprehensive. Tysm!
Best comparison I could find by far! Thanks a lot for your effort bro, amazing work!
Really appreciate the amount of effort you put into this video - great comparison & super helpful! Legend 🙏
I've never seen a review as yours, you've talk about everything and show us everything, good job fella and thanks for your video !
I really like brio but I don’t need wide lens so probably leaning towards stream cam.
Thanks for the side by side comparison. Including video chapters will make life much easier!
Doubling down on what others are saying - best comparison video I've seen. Well done, and thank you!

For lazy people like me, his excellency verdict is ………. Brio 👌🏼😂
Now this is how you do a comparison video. Hard work and talent paying off. Very inspiring.
Dude you really do the best reviews on these things! Thanks for all the work. It’s much appreciated.
Who needs wide angle? People might see my shorts during the meeting lmao hahaha

Awesome Review/Comparison, on of the best, if not the best on YT.

It's really not HDR at all, just seems to darken the whole image a little bit if it determines you are backlit (or it does nothing if you're not).
Oh I see, well I finally learned what it does after all this time! The fact they call it HDR is suspect...

Really kudos for the review! why it does not have millions of views? it should - worth it. made a decision on logitech brio. :)
