Many budget webcams claim "4K" but use software interpolation (essentially upscaled 1080p). The X5 uses a true 8.5-megapixel sensor. In testing, the 4K output is slightly soft compared to a $300 Sony mirrorless camera, but it is noticeably sharper than the Logitech C920. Text on bookshelves behind the subject remains readable, and skin tones look natural rather than waxy.
