A capable 4K webcam with flexible mount and built-in mic that the reviewer recommends, though its real-world sharpness gain over an old C920 was underwhelming and motion blur and autofocus quirks showed up.

The Logitech MX Brio is a solid, easy-to-use webcam that delivers great image quality out of the box.
Read Linus Tech Tips review - 71est.Tom's Hardware
A decent 4K webcam with balanced exposure and good mics, but its image is flatter than rival 4K cams, it lacks Windows Hello and the reviewer finds $200 hard to justify.
