4K sharpness and AI power in one device
The Razer Kiyo V2 defines what modern webcams should look like: professional, flexible and intelligent. The new Sony STARVIS sensor delivers razor-sharp 4K images with precise color reproduction even in low light. Details such as hair structure, textures or light reflections remain clearly visible even in dynamic scenes. The combination of high resolution and adaptive software, which uses AI to automatically optimize exposure, white balance and noise reduction, is particularly impressive – perfect for creators who want to get straight to work without complicated post-processing.
The camera supports lossless video formats such as MJPEG, YUY2 and NV12, which also makes it attractive for professional post-production or streaming in the highest quality. An optionally activatable High Dynamic Range (HDR) also ensures stronger contrasts and natural skin tones without overexposure.
Intelligent automation with Camo Studio
In collaboration with Reincubate, Razer integrates the functions of Camo Studio directly into the Kiyo V2. With auto-framing and face tracking, the system’s AI ensures that creators always stay in focus – even when moving or switching between scenes. Intelligent tracking dynamically adjusts pan, tilt and zoom to constantly optimize composition and angle of view.
Camo Studio also enables adaptive light and background correction. Virtual backgrounds, subtle blurring, dynamic spotlight or the precise separation of foreground and surroundings can be activated with a single click – ideal for streams and meetings. These effects are calculated by AI and require no external software or green screen setup, which simplifies the workflow of mobile creators in particular.
Software control and creative freedom
Razer Synapse allows users to fully personalize their webcam. The tool transforms into a control center for camera settings: from ISO and exposure time to creative overlays, frames and watermarks. AI-supported effects such as blur, brightness adjustment or spotlight help to customize streams and video recordings.
Manual setting options are available for creators who prefer maximum control, while beginners can rely on automatic processing modes – the camera recognizes lighting conditions and adjusts parameters automatically. The ultra-wide-angle lens enables flexible perspectives from close-up to full setup, without distortion or loss of quality.
Kiyo V2 X: The intuitive alternative
Alongside the V2, Razer is launching the Kiyo V2 X, a more affordable version with 1440p resolution at 60 FPS. It offers fast autofocus, an integrated microphone and a mechanical privacy screen for added privacy. Its simple plug-and-play setup and solid image quality make it ideal for streamers and professionals who want to get started right away.
Conclusion and availability
With the Kiyo V2, Razer takes the creator experience to the next level, combining true 4K quality with intelligent AI software. The result is professional-looking streams, video calls and productions that seamlessly adapt to light, movement and creativity.
The Razer Kiyo V2 is available now at a price of €169.99 RRP, the Kiyo V2 X costs €109.99 RRP. Both models are available at Razer.com, RazerStores and authorized retailers worldwide.
