The Logitech BRIO supports HDR recording, though I was not sure if it is enabled by default or only works with specific apps. Also, I could not get it to work with my existing camera app. I guess the software only works with people with non-black hair (non-Asians). Otherwise, it detects my face and body quite well.

It didn’t work that perfect: my hair was removed and so is my hand when I raise them up. With Logitech BRIO, I can replace the background with any photo (the install link is hidden under the BRIO support page “Camera Settings” detail listing).

To record in 4K, the webcam must be connected to a USB 3.0 port. Having more pixels is always better for digital zoom and post-production crop. The Logitech BRIO is the first consumer webcam that shoots in 4K resolution. What is so interesting about this S$339 webcam? After all, most webcams are not quite mount-friendly, and the price does not justify the mediocre quality.īut when the new Logitech BRIO 4K Ultra HD Webcam announced its retail launch in Singapore, I became interested to review it. Then as mobile phones became mainstream and camera quality improved in leaps and bounds, the desire for a dedicated webcam diminished further. Unlike compact cameras, webcams are built for only one purpose, that is to exist next to the monitor.

For decades, my desktop never had a webcam, and somehow I did not feel that I needed one.
