Logitech just launched their new BRIO 4K webcam with HDR and Windows Hello support, and we've got one in to review! As always, we've got a quick unboxing and hands on first, giving you a good look at all the details and samples you need to see before you think about buying one.
The BRIO 4K from Logtech is the first prosumer 4K webcam that's available on the market. It retails for $199, which isn't cheap to say the least, but it does come with a hefty set of specifications that in our opinion makes its price worth it.
