POLY X70 VS. POLY X72: UNCOVERING THE DIFFERENCES

Poly has raised the bar once again in the realm of video conferencing technology with the release of the Poly Studio X72. Building on the success of the Poly Studio X70, this latest model brings a range of enhancements and new features designed to improve user experience, connectivity, and overall performance. In this blog post, we’ll explore what’s new and what’s changed in the Poly Studio X72 compared to its predecessor, the Poly Studio X70.

OVERVIEW

POLY STUDIO X70

The Poly Studio X70 has been a robust solution for video conferencing, offering 4K video resolution and solid audio performance, making it an ideal choice for medium to large conference rooms. Equipped with Poly’s Acoustic Fence and NoiseBlock AI technologies, it ensures clear communication by reducing background noise and enhancing voice clarity. It supports dual displays and is compatible with leading video conferencing platforms like Zoom and Microsoft Teams.

POLY STUDIO X72

The Poly Studio X72 takes all the strengths of the X70 and amplifies them. It comes with an upgraded 4K camera, featuring advanced AI capabilities for more precise automatic framing, speaker tracking, and people tracking. The microphone array has been enhanced for broader coverage and better sensitivity, ensuring that every voice is heard clearly, even in larger and more acoustically challenging spaces. Additionally, the X72 supports up to three displays with the use of a USB dongle for Zoom, offering more flexibility for complex setups. It also includes an LLN (Low Latency Network) port for IP-based peripherals, enhancing its compatibility with a wide range of devices. Moreover, the X72 is Studio E360 compatible, enabling seamless integration with advanced collaboration and analytics features.

FUTURE-PROOFING WITH THE NEW CHIPSET: NEXT-GEN FEATURES & SUPPORT

One of the standout upgrades in the Poly Studio X72 is its new chipset, designed to support the upcoming Android OS in 2025. This hardware improvement not only enhances the current performance but also ensures that the X72 will be compatible with next-generation Poly features and products. Moving forward, any Poly device with a model number ending in “2” (like X52, X62, X72) will support these advancements, making them future-proof choices for organizations looking to stay ahead in video conferencing technology.

ENHANCED CAMERA CAPABILITIES: SHARPER AND SMARTER

The Poly Studio X72 features a significant upgrade in camera technology. While the Poly Studio X70 already offered 4K video resolution, the X72 takes it further with improved AI-driven automatic framing and speaker tracking. This advanced camera system can now capture every participant more accurately, making it ideal for larger conference rooms where camera coverage and image quality are crucial.

  • POLY STUDIO X72: Upgraded 4K camera with advanced AI capabilities, including refined automatic framing, speaker tracking, and precise people tracking. This ensures every participant is clearly visible and optimally framed.
  • POLY STUDIO X70: Standard 4K camera with basic AI-driven framing and tracking, suitable for smaller to medium-sized rooms but lacking the enhanced intelligence and responsiveness of the X72.

AUDIO PERFORMANCE: CLEARER CONVERSATIONS IN ANY ENVIRONMENT

Audio quality is a cornerstone of effective communication, and the Poly Studio X72 delivers a superior experience compared to the X70. While both models feature Poly’s signature Acoustic Fence and NoiseBlock AI technologies, the X72’s upgraded microphone array offers broader coverage and higher sensitivity. This means that voices are captured more clearly, even in larger or more acoustically challenging rooms.

  • POLY STUDIO X72: Enhanced microphone array with better sensitivity and range, making it ideal for capturing voices clearly in larger or open spaces.
  • POLY STUDIO X70: Reliable audio performance with standard microphone capabilities, suitable for medium-sized rooms but not as robust in larger settings.

CONNECTIVITY AND COMPATIBILITY: MORE OPTIONS, MORE FLEXIBILITY

The Poly Studio X72 offers expanded connectivity options, including additional USB-C ports and enhanced Wi-Fi capabilities. This makes it more adaptable to different meeting room configurations and easier to integrate with additional devices, such as external cameras or audio systems. Both models support popular video conferencing platforms like Zoom and Microsoft Teams, but the X72 provides more flexibility for complex setups and supports up to three displays with a USB dongle. The inclusion of an LLN port for IP-based peripherals and Studio E360 compatibility further extends its versatility and integration capabilities.

  • POLY STUDIO X72: Additional USB-C ports, enhanced Wi-Fi, LLN port for IP-based peripherals, and Studio E360 compatibility for a versatile and flexible setup. Supports up to three displays for multi-screen setups.
  • POLY STUDIO X70: Standard connectivity options with basic support for peripherals and integrations, suitable for straightforward setups.

ADVANCED AI AND SMART FEATURES: LEVERAGING DATA FOR BETTER MEETINGS

The Poly Studio X72 introduces advanced AI capabilities, such as room analytics and people count features. These smart functionalities provide valuable data on meeting room usage and participant engagement, enabling organizations to optimize their meeting spaces and improve efficiency. While the X70 offers some basic AI-driven features, it does not include the in-depth analytics provided by the X72.

  • POLY STUDIO X72: Advanced AI features, including room analytics and people count, for better meeting management and data-driven decision-making.
  • POLY STUDIO X70: Basic AI functionalities without the detailed analytics offered by the X72, making it less suitable for organizations that want to leverage data insights.
