The black Sabinetek SmartMike Lite is a tiny, lightweight, clip-on wireless lavalier microphone that uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to clearly record your voice to your iOS or Android smartphone. The mic works in tandem with the free SmartMike+ app, which shoots video and syncs the incoming wireless audio—automatically compensating for the Bluetooth latency. The result is an easy-to-use, cable-free microphone system that offers YouTubers, vloggers, Instagrammers, Zoom-meeting participants, and fast-content creators a cost-effective, hands-free solution for better-sounding videos.

The SmartMike Lite offers a 49' maximum operating range and features a built-in rechargeable battery capable of powering it for up to 6 hours. The 3.5mm headphone jack allows you to monitor your sound in real time. A furry windscreen is included to help reduce wind noise when shooting outside.
