Good hardware, terrible software.

I was excited to get a Kiyo for Christmas but was quickly disillusioned with the image quality. I found that his software included "Low Light Compensation" that created very hot highlights and greatly reduced image quality. When I disabled this feature, I was happy with the video from the camera, but the settings in the program were never saved. As if I couldn't get the camera to save my settings, unfortunately I had to send it back. It's a shame that a premium streaming camera is hampered byโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Just useless

Puppy just bought for Christmas and tied to company meetings. While the camera quality is excellent and works on a Mac, the autofocus messes things up; It never stops focusing automatically. I see they say it's only possible with Windows, so I assume it's solved with their app? However, people use Teams, Facetime, and other apps, so I'm not sure the Windows app will fix all of this. You must be right, otherwise all these things will return. I see there is a webcam settings app for Mac, but then

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of style

Decent device cheaply made

Until this camera broke it was quite decent. The ring light was very helpful and the video quality was perfectly adequate for streaming. However, there were always problems with the autofocus. It stopped working until I unplugged the camera and plugged it back in. I believe this is a driver issue, but most devices don't have this issue. Also, with normal use, the hinge broke, and now the camera is dangling uselessly. I could write it down somewhere, but it's not necessary. I was very gentleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
