Razer Drops the Kiyo V2 and V2 X: 4K Clarity Meets AI-Powered Streaming Tools
Razer has launched the Kiyo V2 and Kiyo V2 X, the next generation of webcams built for creators, streamers, and anyone who wants to look professional on camera without the hassle. These aren't just incremental upgrades—they're a complete rethink of what a webcam can do when you combine premium hardware with intelligent software.
The Kiyo V2: Professional Grade, Zero Effort
Streaming shouldn't mean fighting with camera settings while trying to entertain your audience. The Kiyo V2 delivers 4K 30FPS video powered by Sony's STARVIS technology, capturing lifelike color accuracy and natural skin tones even when your lighting setup isn't perfect. Whether you're grinding through a 12-hour stream, recording YouTube content, or jumping on a video call, the camera adapts to you.
What sets the Kiyo V2 apart is the integration with Camo Studio by Reincubate. This partnership brings AI-powered features directly into your workflow: intelligent auto-framing that keeps you centered, background segmentation for clean visuals, and adaptive lighting correction that fixes bad lighting on the fly. It's like having a camera operator who never takes a break.
Software That Actually Makes Sense
Through Razer Synapse with Camo integration, the Kiyo V2 gives you two paths: simple or advanced. Beginners can rely on One-Click Image Enhancement to automatically dial in exposure, white balance, and noise reduction. Advanced users get granular control over ISO, shutter speed, and white balance to craft their exact look.
The AI-powered effects go beyond basic filters. Spotlight focus, cinematic blur, and dynamic background replacement let you transform your streaming space instantly. Add overlays, watermarks, and custom branding elements to make every stream unmistakably yours. All the tools are there—you just decide how deep you want to go.

Meet the Kiyo V2 X: Plug-and-Play Excellence
Not everyone needs 4K. Some creators just want great quality without the complexity. That's where the Kiyo V2 X comes in.
The V2 X delivers 1440P 60FPS streaming with smooth, crystal-clear video, fast autofocus, and a wide-angle lens. The built-in microphone means you're covered for audio, and the integrated privacy shutter gives you peace of mind when you're off-camera. It's plug-and-play simplicity with serious performance—perfect for creators who want to elevate their content without diving into advanced settings.
What They're Saying
"With the Kiyo V2, we wanted to give creators the best of both worlds," said Addie Tan, Global Head of Lifestyle Division at Razer. "The original Kiyo Pro set a new standard for webcam image quality, but we knew creators needed more than just sharp visuals. That's why we built the Kiyo V2 with true 4K clarity and layered in intelligent AI optimizations, so streaming becomes easier, smarter, and truly stream-ready."
"We're thrilled to collaborate with Razer to empower creators with smarter tools," said Aidan Fitzpatrick, CEO of Reincubate. "Camo Studio has helped millions of users level-up their video, and combined with Razer's cutting-edge hardware, we're making it easier than ever for creators to focus on what matters most: their content and their communities."
