We’d steer clear of the optional filters, too, given how garish they can be – though you may enjoy trying a handful, even if they lack the sophistication or AR technology of a SnapChat filter. You can switch between 1080p/Full HD and 720p/HD, and alter the levels of brightness, contrast, saturation, or sharpness – though the default levels will usually suffice. There aren’t many video options or adjustments to be made. With a simple USB-C connection, a clearly signposted camera shutter, and an effective screen grip to keep it still, this model fades easily into the background after setup. In practice, the Logitech Brio 300 is brilliantly straightforward to use. The Brio 300 is available in off-white, rose, or graphite colorways. The webcam comes with an adjustable hinge to help direct the camera at head height, no matter the height of the monitor.

It clasps easily onto the top of a computer monitor, with a rubber grip that keeps it stable throughout the day, though not with any adhesive. The front, and wide edge of the cone, contains the camera, as well as an integrated camera shutter that slides seamlessly on and off the lens.

The Brio 300 has a cone-like shape, with a narrow USB-C cable that connects directly to the laptop at the back. This is both an advantage and disadvantage, keeping things simple and streamlined while also limiting what capabilities the Brio 300’s limited size has room for. The Logitech Brio 300 is a relatively small device, making it more discreet than larger, more premium options that need to fit in more microphones or camera tech.
