After the Brio 4K webcam, Logitech launched a second 4K webcam called Brio MX.
As you know, Logitech used the MX Series nomenclature for keyboard and mouse products and the Brio series for webcams. With this product, they started to use both Brio and MX words in the same product. With this naming convention, we will probably see different products in the future.
Let me also point out that this product is also offered as “MX Brio 705” in the Logitech business products portfolio.
Box Contents
The box of Brio MX is relatively simple and made of recyclable materials. When you open the box, the following comes out:
- MX Brio Camera
- Monitor Mounting Clip with Removable Adapter
- 1.5 Meter USB-C to USB-C USB 3.0 Cable
- User Documents
Camera Features
Brio MX has almost the same dimensions as Brio 4K, with a length of 6.2 cm and a width of 9.8 cm. Likewise, there is a removable USB-C cable, as in Brio 4K.
Logitech Brio MX is equipped with an 8.5MP Sony STARVIS Sensor that can capture images at 4K 30 and 1080p 60 fps resolutions. In this way, clearer images can be obtained in low light conditions. The aperture value of the camera is F/2.0.
Thanks to its detachable magnetic mounting clip, MX Brio can be used either on a monitor or by connecting it to a tripod. It has a viewfinder that can block the image flow by turning the round frame outside the lens.
Offering an improved light correction option thanks to RightLight 5, an algorithm supported by artificial intelligence and focusing on the face, Brio MX can provide a more natural image even in difficult conditions.
Thanks to Show Mode, which is also available in Brio MX, Brio 500 series, you can view documents etc. by turning the camera down. It can also offer a suitable solution when sharing is desired.
Thanks to the two noise-canceling microphones on Brio MX, it can clearly receive sounds from up to 1.2 meters away.
Image Settings
Brio MX comes with more image adjustment options compared to its predecessor, Brio 4K. The main ones are:
- Auto White Balance
- Temperature Compensation
- tint
- Brightness
- contrast
- saturation
- Vibrance
- sharpness
- Manual – Auto Focus
These settings are generally offered through Logitech’s own application (Logi Options +). or Low light compensation and HDR features are also available to improve low light conditions. In order to make more detailed settings, shutter speed can be adjusted from 1/2000 to 1/60 seconds, and ISO can be adjusted from 100-1600.
Since Brio MX, which can be used at 90, 78, and 65 degree angles, does not have an infrared sensor, unfortunately there is no Windows Hello support, which is also available in Brio 4K.
Price
Brio MX is available with a price tag of $199.99 (£219.99 / €229).
Conclusion
Thanks to its high resolution and artificial intelligence-supported light and image improvement features, Brio MX has become a product that leaves many of its competitors behind. In addition, additional features such as its integrated privacy cover, Show Mode, and settings that can be adjusted with Logi Options + provide extra convenience in both gaming/broadcasting and professional business life. For those who want to buy a new webcam, I will pass on Brio MX, which is one of the best cameras on the market, as there is not much difference between them as a Brio 4K user 🙂
