Choosing between the Logitech GROUP and the Poly Studio V72? Here's how they differ on room size, platforms, camera, audio and price, and which one fits your room.
Short answer: pick the Logitech GROUP if you want the one that costs $3,580 less and comes with a longer standard warranty (2 years vs 1). Pick the Poly Studio V72 if you want the one that has the wider field of view (120° vs 82° horizontal), better when people sit close to the screen.
Both are Teams and Zoom certified USB devices for medium to large rooms; the difference is camera and audio.
