4k web cam with the m1 mac mini on any 4k monitor?

I got a m1 Mac mini and a 4K UHD display. Now I need a 4K webcam. I want the Logitech 4K pro magnetic web cam, but it says it only works with the Pro monitor, but I didn’t have $1,200 for the pro monitor. Please tell me it will work or what web cam will work?


Mac mini 2018 or later

Yes. I couldn’t get a straight answer out of Logitech. They could only say the pro monitor is required. I ordered it anyway and it works just fine with M1 Mac Mini. The mount isn’t super secure, but with the included stick on wire placements, it stays on the monitor and is easily adjustable.


I downloaded the Logitech Camera Monitor Settings app and the quality of the picture is lovely. Zoom and FaceTime calls went from cringe to queen.

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, gretajane888!


We understand you want to use the Logitec 4K Pro Magnetic Webcam for Apple Pro Display XDR with your Mac mini and a 4K UHD display and want to know if it is compatible. We'd be happy to provide information to help you with this.


While looking at the Logitec Webcam, it's worth noting that the system requirements mention it requires the Apple Pro Display XDR:

4K PRO MAGNETIC WEBCAM Ultra HD webcam for Apple Pro Display XDR

It looks like it's also compatible with a few other Mac models. You can see which ones at the bottom of that page.


It would really be up to you to determine the best webcam for your needs. Checking out their compatibility or specifications pages would help you find if they're compatible.


Have a great day!
