Broadcast-grade clip-on mic that plugs straight into your phone. The RØDE smartLav+ is a lavalier (lapel) microphone with a TRRS plug for smartphones. Its omnidirectional condenser capsule is forgiving to place, and its 1.2 m Kevlar-reinforced cable is built to last.
Why customers choose it
- Clear voice on the go: clip it near the mouth for interviews, reels and video calls instead of using the phone’s distant mic.
- Forgiving placement: the omni pattern picks up evenly even if the mic is not pointed at the mouth.
- Tough cable: Kevlar reinforcement for daily use.
- No setup: powered from the phone’s TRRS socket and works with any audio app, including RØDE Reporter.
- Fewer pops: a pop filter comes in the box.
Who it is for
For YouTubers, mobile journalists, teachers, trainers, interviewers and anyone recording speech on a phone with a 3.5mm headphone socket.
