What we like
- Front and rear panels in one unit — front key light plus RGB bias light
- TrueSoft LEDs render skin tones accurately on camera
- Adjustable stand goes low for desk-cam framing or tall for over-monitor lighting
- Bluetooth or USB control through G HUB, plus on-device buttons
Could be better
- Pricier than a single-sided Elgato Key Light Air
- G HUB software is heavier than it needs to be for a lamp
- RGB rear panel is fun but won't replace dedicated room lighting
Full Review
The Litra Beam LX is Logitech’s answer to a question Elgato never bothered to ask: what if a key light also lit the wall behind you? The front panel is a proper TrueSoft key light. The rear panel is a full RGB LIGHTSYNC bar. Together they handle both sides of the on-camera lighting equation in a single stand, which is why it costs about double a Key Light Air.
Front Panel — The Actual Key Light
This is the part that matters for video calls and streams. TrueSoft hits a CRI in the mid-90s and tunes from 2700K to 6500K, so faces look like faces and not orange or blue cutouts. Output tops out around 400 lumens — enough for a desk at three feet, not enough to overpower a sunlit window. Diffusion is good; the panel is wide enough that it wraps light rather than blasting a hotspot.
Rear Panel — The Bias Light Bonus
The back side is where Logitech earns the price tag. It pushes RGB onto the wall behind you, which doubles as eye-strain-reducing bias light during work and as on-camera color separation during streams. LIGHTSYNC syncs it to other Logitech G gear if you’re already in that ecosystem. If you’re not, you can set a static color and forget it. Either way, it solves a real problem — the dark void behind a streamer’s head — without buying a second product.
Litra Beam LX vs Elgato Key Light Air
The Key Light Air is cheaper, brighter at peak (around 1400 lumens), and mounts off the back of your desk on a clamp arm. The Litra Beam LX is dimmer up front but adds the rear RGB and uses a freestanding base instead of a clamp. If your desk doesn’t take a clamp, or if you want bias lighting in the same purchase, the LX wins. If you only care about maximum face brightness and already have a clampable desk, the Key Light Air is the better dollar.
Build and Daily Use
The stand telescopes from short (good for low webcam framing) to about monitor height. On-device buttons mean you don’t have to open G HUB to dim it before a call. USB-C power is welcome. The base is solid enough to keep it upright but takes up real desk footprint — plan for it.
Who Should Buy This
Buy the Litra Beam LX if you stream or take video calls from a desk that can’t accept a clamp arm, or if you specifically want bias lighting and a key light in one purchase. Skip it if you already own a Key Light Air and your background is fine — the upgrade isn’t worth $100. Streamers in the Logitech G ecosystem who’ll actually use LIGHTSYNC get the most out of it.
