This video popped up in my Google News feed, probably because I have researched webcams in the past. First time I've ever seen your channel and thought it was fantastic--super informative, well-produced, and right down to business with no fluff. You've earned a new subscriber.
The Razer Kiyo is a nice webcam and the design is fine by me. Picture colour is quite good. However as stated below, the price 🤯 OUCH! And the C920 did do a vg job in comparison. Great in depth review once again by Kitguru 🥰👍🥳. Great work Andy!
Thats because Synapse doesn't install firmware updates. You have to get them manually from the Razer firmware page. There is a recent update for the Kiyo Pro so there must be one for the Kiyo.
Surely the comparisons should be with webcams actually in the same price point or at least closer? Regardless of whether these other webcams are higher resolution, could just be tested at 1080p to show apples to apples what with Razor focusing on image quality and handling of light over resolution. Examples: Logitech C922 Stream - £94.99 Logitech StreamCam - £139.99 Logitech BRIO Stream - £219.99 AverMedia PW513 - £220 Would be interesting to hear your thoughts.
I feel like the Aver media did a lil better with the bright blowout with HDR off, but the detail in the Kiyo was much better. Turn that HDR on and woah... it's no competition.
Video (and surprisingly audio quality) is very damn good but that auto focus is out of control lol. I'd actually consider it if it were on sale for like 100 or 120 but 199 is too much.
Yeah seemed only marginally better than the Logitech at more than twice the cost. But It is a good market to go after--there's very little on the high end webcam market without getting into DLSR and advanced setups.
@@thirteen2k The Pro's image and audio are better than anything else on the market for a webcam. The audio is decent and the autofocus is defeatable. When properly set up like that with manual focus it is the clearly superior option to everything else, except a DSLR and dedicated microphone. But the latter will cost considerably more before you are up and running with it. So, when all other options are considered I'd get the Razer Kiyo Pro and be happy.
when its in focus it kills the others. and since it has manual focus that wouldnt be an issue with someone like myself. manual focus is better anyways in most cases.
"BuT It's rAzEr sO It MuSt bE RubBiSh"... Few comments complaining about auto focus, doesn't this have a manual option, i'm sure it does. For MOST applications the auto focus isn't a big enough problem ie zoom calls, now whatsapp video on desktop and *insert medium here*. People love shitting on things because it doesn't fit their exact needs, so buy a different one then lmao. And how many people are actually streaming games and not using these for video/conference calling with friends or work ect? I'm biased cause i use my dslr but tbh it's big and bulky, might consider this webcam if the price drops on a sale.
@@dodo19923 ive bought my first Razer keyboard a couple months ago and its been great. Think it was 80is dollars at walmart. its my first mechanical keyboard. Im not a fan of the "clicky clicky" sounds,but over all,its been great so far.
@@mikieson Yeah, people complain way too much about razer... tis' the state of the internet i'm afraid... Give's people the ability to bitch and moan about everything they could ever dream of, which in turn only makes them worse. I have a gen 1 razer phone and it's an absolute tank, battery still gives me a day or more, not slowed down a single bit, no build issues whatsoever and i've had it since release date.. weird how taking care of things means they last eh?
very comprehensive review, going through all the flaws and features, thanks. just missing the shot of the webcam in action, i wanted to see the led incidator.
It's a very interesting concept, speaking as someone who recently bought a DSLR for use as a webcam (though, I've since gotten into photography which you can't really do with this) Also, it doesn't seem like you can swap out the lenses, which some people won't care about, but it'll be limiting for others (especially from how it's marketed). Means there's no hardware focus, filters, or anything like that. As a plug and play device, it's great. Though, looking at the webcam market as a whole, it's not all that high of a bar to get above. I feel like there's not been any kind of real innovation in a long long time, so this will hopefully work to get everyone else's heads in the game.
@@shaolin95 1995 shots in your head, it is the best webcam so far and for the simple fact of being Razer they look for the slightest problem to be able to criticize it.
Great camera, let down by the software not running on Mac. Theres an app called Web Cam Settings, that works, but doesn’t allow you to engage the wide angle function, which is why I bought the camera. Found a fix. If you use Zoom, click the HD tab. Camera then goes to full wide angle. 👍
i just ordered the Logitech streamercam and was about to cancel my order because of other reviewers saying its better, and your video made me change my mind again and keep my order. The camera looks nice but the software with razer doesnt seem as good and the auto focus is totally out of whack. Logitech is very reliable and this video made me feel more comfortable with the purchase decision.
My experience with the microphone test was very different, the microphone being very quiet. The picture quality isn't fantastic either, creating noise, some blurry image around edges, while also having some edges really looking like anti-aliasing is needed.
That was a very good video of the new pro camera. On my current Kiyo Camera that I bought 2 weeks ago I cant seem to adjust HDR at all but I can access everything else. Thankfully when I exit the Synapse it remains with the same settings when I record a quick voice over video using Wondershare Filmora 9. Pretty happy with it. My only complaint about my current camera is that it doesn't fit on top of the Raptor 27 monitor that well. It takes like 3/8" of an inch from the center of the screen like a notch. The pro version shown here is smaller from that L shape notch and does NOT block the screen so I will definitely pick it up maybe for Black Friday if the price drops a bit lol! I won't pay $199.99 for it.
Great video! I have a Logitech C920 and I am looking at improving Zoom call quality at home. Just ordered the Razer Kiyo with ring light direct from Razer based on the idea of not having to have a seperate lighting source. However I will not be ordering the Pro model after seeing your video. For sleekness and cost, do you recommend a single or pair Elgato key light air to go with the Kiyo Pro? They also make desk clamp stand for them.
What about the focus distance range? One of the big problems with the C920 is without modding the lens anything more than about 50cm away from it was a shitty blurry mess. Doing the comparisons split screen instead of A/B/C made this hard to make out. I think for £200 I'd want an optical zoom of some kind too.
That focus hunting is insanely bad from Razer’s “Pro” here. Logitech’s years-old Brio (untested here) still seems superior with 1080p@60 and for a similar price, you get Windows Hello, too.
If you don't like it, you have the manual focus, the Brio doesn't have HDR support and has a worse color representation, it's a very good camera, don't try to discredit it.
@@alemora420We’d need to see a bead-to-head, but I imagine the Brio will walk away with it. To me, the Kiyo Pro is DOA because of focus failures. Razer never fixed focus issues on the Kiyo, so I’m not wasting my money on an alpha product. Better sensors can get you better dynamic range without halving your frame rate (!). Razer’s choice here make their product discredit itself, unfortunately. 🤷
The video quality was easily the best, but the AF was unusable on the Kiyo examples. I’d be miffed if I spent that much on a webcam only to have to meddle with the manual focus on a regular basis.
Nope, never buying another Kiyo again! I had two of the original Kiyo, both broke after a year. Both had major build defects in the hinge design where the plastic area around the hinge broke, and the LED light on one started flickering after about a year of use. I now use Logitech C922 and I’ve been very satisfied ever since.
Theres actually a razer camera not much people know about. The Razer Kiyo X. I've seen a couple of reviews and the quality is pretty damn good. I'd like to hear your thoughts on it.
For those unfamiliar with the Canon utility, it works well but comes with some serious caveats. Such as not using the inbuilt microphone, clashing with other canon utility software and being of limited use unless you have a DC power cable for your camera ( which is often quite expensive ).
I use a canon dslr and it's a ballache with the battery length ect. Great quality but there are limiting factors and most people want a plug and play webcam current year considering (2020's have been great so far lmao)
Now that the price has dropped and the firmware has been updated, what do you think? It was between this and the Elgato Facecam and I went with Razer, since all my hardware is already RGB synced with Synapse. The microphones are a plus but I probably wont use them.
Good video, but not convinced by by the Kiyo pro, yes image quality is better than those it was compared to. However, it suffer from what most webcams suffer from skin tones are poorly reproduced and looks like beautify has been applied from a first generation selfie camera implementation of the feature. It is probably just low clarity but it is very annoying.
Can this camera be connected via HDMI? this camera has a USB-C output, but there are devices to which you need to connect the camera via HDMI ... Can you use an adapter then?
Comparing the c920 instead of the Brio (correct price bracket for comparison) is apples to oranges. Brio also has detachable usb-c cable. Logitech sells privacy covers for both the c920 and the Brio. I shake my head at this review.
Andy mentioned the auto focus problems and explained about the manual settings. Did you miss that bit ? Seems he went through a lot of tests and I got what I needed from it myself - was very in-depth compared to some of the shit mic reviews I’ve seen in the last year. Always a good way to prove you don’t agree is to do it ‘better’ yourself. Means you won’t kill too many brain cells ‘shaking your head’ as well. Be sure to share your own. I’m sure Andy would be taking notes.
I setup my device today, it lasted 45 minutes before the manual and auto focus stopped working, so know ability to focus at all, from research this seems to be a known issue, Razor recently issued a firmware update for focus issues, that's been pulled due to it bricking the device. Razor support wanted me to collect logs before sending me a firmware update, that's not unexpected but it's not worth the effort and inconvenience, I've returned my day old device and requested a refund.
How the heck can you actually record directly to my windows pc????? I found the built in camera app-it does record, but not at 60fps, and cannot find the customize video on synapse anywhere now....
Could you imagine buying any camera with a bunch of auto features which is completely normal but then being told to make it work you have to use it manually? Could you imagine buying a brand new Samsung Galaxy S21 ultra but then only be able to take manual photos? Lol.
Damn better products always come right after you buy one or previous model lol 😂 got the c920 with security cover eh it’s ok When u see the comparison c920 isn’t bad at all
Alright so I’m having some issues with mine. I plug it up but it’s not showing in synapses. But when I activate obs to record or stream the camera does work. I just can’t adjust some settings on it since it requires synapse.
I got this cam... using it with obs studios, on a hp pavilion Tg01-0023w and a Geforce GTX 1650 super GPU and I still cant get it to look as nice as everyone else's 🤔😫
how do i stop this webcam from drawing power even when not in use? i haven't seen any info on the net on how to like just keep on a possible power saving mode when not actually being used at all the only obvious solution is to unplug it from the USB port when you don't need to use it and then rreconnect back to whichever USB port is free which obviously means me just getting, moving up a bit closer to my 7000D case and then doing a bend over just whenever i need to turn the webcam on or off and the joke is on use with that light indicator to know if the webcam is on or off cause if the the light is off, it still draws power no matter what they say.. less you were to turn off your desktop or laptop completely AND NOTHING!! WE BELONG TO RAZER NOW.. EVEN IF WE BELONG TO NOBODY..
Video quality is good, mic audio is ok, autofocus is terrible, software has nice customization and i like the variation of different angle you can change manually but $200 price tag... 😁no thanks. Calling it a dslr killer is overrated
I hate to be that guy but the "Cuh-yowh" is killing me. It literally is the letter 'i". It's like pronouncing the Razer Kishi as "Cuh-shee". The Japanese have no long vowel sounds and no schwa, so it will always be short sounds. "kee-yoh'". That's it.
lol $200 I will buy some DSLR camera and put it with a cam link at least I will have 2 in one with the freedom of changing the lens and for far away better image quality. for the test I see that the avermedia pw313 is better than all of them for quality vs budget.
The cam link alone is what $100? Then go and find a dslr for $100 that will allow you to use a cam link with it and not turn off or overheat after 30 min. When you do let me know because that's when I'll see pigs flying
@@dial2616 take it easy. I was just saying. If it works for iPad that's a bonus. Some folks don't have the luxury to buy computer when and if an iPad is all they need.
when you were being a camera I wish you actually would just record the entire video with that camera versus going and switching back to your high-end camera constantly personally that would be better because then we can really see it for longer than just a few seconds that you show it
Oh don't be silly. The quality is not good enough. It's hunting for focus every 5 seconds. People would bitch. I like to see a proper camera for these videos. Shows the differences too.

Razer: Here's our new Kiyo Pro.
Auto Focus: Always has been.
This is a very tempting product.... thanks for the quality review KitGuru!
This will explain why the regular Kiyo has sold out everywhere lol Looks like I’ll be grabbing one of these!
I watched this video, as I am waiting for my Kiyo Pro to arrive tomorrow. I'm much more informed before my unboxing, thanks to you. Excellent review!

Video quality is good, mic audio is ok, autofocus is terrible, software has nice customization and i like the variation of different angle you can change manually but $200 price tag... 😁no thanks. Calling it a dslr killer is overrated
I hate to be that guy but the "Cuh-yowh" is killing me. It literally is the letter 'i". It's like pronouncing the Razer Kishi as "Cuh-shee". The Japanese have no long vowel sounds and no schwa, so it will always be short sounds. "kee-yoh'". That's it.
Damn Razer
I just invested on this and it doesn’t work on the Xbox series X. Ls!
This is the first time I see a camera that will stop working after 7-8 months
At this price it should be possible to put on an uv-filter.....
now i can show my pipi in hdr and 4k :O Waaaaaaau
So, how would a Linux user set the camera's mode?
Kind of like: 4930-8-257839201-4839021-8349238593428935789302178230597238.
Stop torturing yourself and get Win10.
@@basshead. Running Windows. Now THAT would be torture.
@@Blacksadify Are you having a seizure? Should I call the paramedics?
@@CathyInBlue Nope, Windows is freedom. Windows is like a Swiss Army knife, it can run everything.
lol $200 I will buy some DSLR camera and put it with a cam link at least I will have 2 in one with the freedom of changing the lens and for far away better image quality. for the test I see that the avermedia pw313 is better than all of them for quality vs budget.
The cam link alone is what $100? Then go and find a dslr for $100 that will allow you to use a cam link with it and not turn off or overheat after 30 min. When you do let me know because that's when I'll see pigs flying
Where can I buy it? UK... ?
Google shows nothing... lol
Oh nope... autofocus
👍
It would be cool if it somehow works with iPads.
Ah yes, because the professional market is just clamoring for better webcam support.
If you want peripherals to work, buy a real computer.
@@dial2616 take it easy. I was just saying.
If it works for iPad that's a bonus. Some folks don't have the luxury to buy computer when and if an iPad is all they need.
@@ripp3rjak934 I do 90% of my dev work on an $80 Thinkpad, if that's not affordable then I don't know what is.
@@dial2616 well there we go don’t see the harm is having mic support for ipad
when you were being a camera I wish you actually would just record the entire video with that camera versus going and switching back to your high-end camera constantly personally that would be better because then we can really see it for longer than just a few seconds that you show it
Oh don't be silly. The quality is not good enough. It's hunting for focus every 5 seconds. People would bitch. I like to see a proper camera for these videos. Shows the differences too.
so when i use it as a camera and not a webcam ... hmmmmm
I’ll stick to Elgato’s EpocCam
the autofocus is horrendous ??????????
