The SmallRig 5640 M3 is an attachable LED video light designed for mobile and PC content creators. It mounts quickly to MagSafe-enabled iPhones or to Android phones using the included metal ring. The unit delivers dual-color-temperature lighting through a large soft diffusion area, and it offers stepless control of both brightness and color temperature for precise, real-time adjustments.
Attach the 5640 M3 to a MagSafe iPhone instantly for one-second secure mounting. Alternatively, fit the included metal ring to an Android device for equally firm attachment. For desktop work, clip the quick release base to a monitor or laptop and choose either horizontal or vertical orientation. Then tilt the light up to 170° to fine-tune the angle. All of this installs without tools, allowing fast transitions between devices and setups.
The dual-color-temperature LED delivers calibrated hues with high brightness to reproduce colors accurately. Meanwhile, the large soft diffusion area spreads light evenly to reduce harsh shadows and create flattering skin tones. Use the stepless controls to adjust brightness and color temperature smoothly, so you can match ambient lighting or achieve a particular look without abrupt jumps.
The 5640 M3 houses a 2000mAh lithium-polymer battery. You charge it via USB-C, and it can run for up to 150 minutes at full power on a single charge. At 11mm thick and 84g in weight, it stays slim and light in a pocket or bag, making it practical for on-the-go creators who switch between mobile and laptop setups.
This all-in-one light suits mobile content creators, amateur photographers, PC-based content producers, and remote workers. It supports quick multi-device transitions, provides accurate lighting for video and stills, and offers portability and battery life suitable for extended shoots or remote meetings.
