Razer Kiyo Pro Webcam: 1080p 60FPS, Adaptive Light Sensor

Name: Razer Kiyo Pro Webcam: 1080p 60FPS, Adaptive Light Sensor
Brand: Razer
SKU: RZ19-03640100-R3U1

Overview

The Razer Kiyo Pro (RZ19-03640100-R3U1) is a USB webcam engineered for content creators, streamers, and professionals who need high-quality video without the complexity of a DSLR capture setup. Its headline feature is uncompressed Full HD 1080p video at 60 frames per second, delivered over a USB 3.0 connection with 5Gbps bandwidth. This means the video signal reaches your streaming or conferencing software without being degraded by in-camera compression, resulting in cleaner, more detailed footage — particularly noticeable in scenes with fine detail or fast motion.

Where the Kiyo Pro truly differentiates itself is in low-light performance. Its adaptive light sensor is designed to read the environment and optimize exposure and brightness automatically, reducing the grain and noise that plague many webcams in dimly lit rooms. For scenes with strong contrast — such as a bright window behind the subject — HDR mode can be activated at 30FPS to balance highlights and shadows. The wide-angle lens offers three field-of-view presets (103°, 90°, and 80°) configurable through Razer Synapse, letting you show more of your room or crop in tighter for a headshot. It's certified for Streamlabs and compatible with OBS, XSplit, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and other major platforms, making it a versatile choice whether you're broadcasting gameplay or joining a Monday morning standup. The 1.5-meter braided USB cable and flexible monitor clip mount round out a package built for quick, reliable deployment.
