What reviewers say
TechRadar and Tom's Hardware praised the Kiyo Pro's detailed image and its ability to keep a usable picture in difficult light. Both thought it expensive for a 1080p webcam. Tom's Hardware found its default colour too warm and said some controls were awkward to reach in Synapse, while TechRadar found its low-light colour could be inconsistent.
