I have a a Razer Kiyo Webcam that I use because I got it for super cheap, it's a decent enough cam but every time I plug it in it tries to install the Razer Synapse software, which I don't want. Synapse is known to be a massive RAM hog and will pester you for updates and in some cases advertise Raze

Webcam recommendations
If you're looking for a solid upgrade, check out the YoloLiv S3. I swapped my Razer Kiyo Pro out for it a few months back and it’s easily the best $200 webcam right now. Because it has the largest sensor to date, the low-light performance is great and the image is incredibly crisp. If you have good

Need webcam gift ideas for my boyfriends birthday
I'm going to sound a little like a shill but I recently got the YOLOLIV YoloCam S3, and it beats all of the other webcam's in the comment section by a LONG shot! The sensor is larger than the others meaning its able to receive more light in low light environments. The image is really well balanced a

I used to have this with the first model of the Razer Kiyo webcam and it would look dark like that.Seeing as you said it worked fine for 2 years what I'm putting next might not help you, but its worth a try. What I did is installed OBS went into the properties of the webcam and it ended up being at

Need webcam gift ideas for my boyfriends birthday
I switched from a Razer Kiyo Pro to a YoloCam S3 and I have no Complaints. The YoloCam is a little more difficullt to set up/tune and has a wide lens instead of the Razer's square one but its 100% worth

Webcam that handle backlighting well?
I went through this exact struggle, Even expensive webcams usually fail if the light behind you is too bright compared to the light on your face. I ended up getting a Razer Kiyo because it has a built-in ring light, but it still wasn't enough on sunny days. Honestly, the best fix is a desk lamp or a

Razer kiyo pro cuts out after 10-15 minutes in obs. When I have the preview up in synapse I haven’t had it freeze or cut out. Plugged into 3.0. Rolled back drivers. Disabled the device as a mic. Looking for any help before ditching this thing. Thanks

Razer Kiyo V2
Dont get this camera. I have it and its nothing but a 100 dollar paper weight. Nothing from razer that I have bought has ever been good plus their software is horrible to put on your computor because it just forces its way to the front of all your tabs. Even when your playing a game. The kiyo v2 wil

OBSBOT vs Razer Kiyo V2 for streaming — has anyone tried either?
I had the original razer kiyo and it was not that good. I went to logitech streamcam next, and elgato facecam pro after. Those were a lot better. I've been looking into Obsbot Meet, Hollyland webcam, or the insta360 webcam tbh. Don't get the razer, the software especially sucks.
