Logitech G Litra Beam vs Logitech Litra Glow Comparison

Logitech G Litra Beam

Logitech's TrueSoft technology uses full-spectrum LEDs behind a frosted diffuser, aimed at natural-looking skin tones on camera. Spec-based reasoning: the 2700 K to 6500 K range lets the light match warm room lamps in the evening or daylight from a window, so the webcam is not balancing two different colour temperatures.

Logitech Litra Glow

Logitech's TrueSoft technology uses full-spectrum LEDs behind a diffuser, aimed at natural-looking skin tones. It works as a small key light, putting soft light on the face from the front. Spec-based reasoning: more light on the face lets the webcam use less gain, which reduces image noise. For a bigger setup, the Elgato Key Light Air covers more area but costs more and uses a desk clamp.

The Litra Beam is a long LED bar with a frosted diffuser, mounted on a desktop stand. The stand adjusts from 370 mm to 615 mm in height. The bar tilts and rotates on the stand, so it can be angled at the face from beside the monitor.

Logitech Litra Glow

The light weighs 99 g, or 177 g with the monitor mount. The frosted diffuser softens the LEDs into an even, wide panel of light. The mount clips to most monitors and laptops and swivels 360 degrees. Remove the mount and a 1/4-20 thread takes a tripod or arm. The power and brightness buttons sit on the back edge.

Logitech G Litra Beam

The G HUB app adds presets and on-screen control for brightness and colour temperature.

Because it only draws power from the computer, it works with any webcam and with both Windows and macOS. The stand places the light beside or behind the monitor, clear of the webcam. Two lights, one on each side, reduce shadows. Because it stands on its own base, it suits laptops on stands and docked setups where a monitor clip does not fit.

The mount fits most monitors and laptops, with a 4 inch vertical telescoping extension, a 2 inch horizontal extension and 360 degree swivel. On a monitor that also carries a webcam, the telescoping arm lifts the light above the camera. As a USB-powered light it also runs from chargers and hubs, and with the mount removed it fits small tripods.

Logitech G Litra Beam

The light runs on USB-C, needing 5 V at 1.4 A for full brightness. Logitech includes a USB-C cable. Connect it to a computer port or charger, and it turns on with the power button. Physical buttons on the light adjust brightness and colour temperature without software. If a USB port cannot supply 1.4 A, the light runs at lower brightness, so a wall adapter is the safer power source.

Logitech Litra Glow

The light connects with a 1.5 m USB-C to USB-A cable. Plug it in, clip it on and it turns on with the power button on the back. Buttons on the back adjust brightness and colour temperature, so software is optional. Logitech G HUB adds presets and syncs settings for streaming.
