This industry-leading mic builds on years of Philips experience and takes into account user feedback on the previous versions of the SpeechMike. The SMP3700 provides outstanding recording quality for SayIt users.

Key Features

• Outstanding recording quality. The SMP3700 has a suspended noise canceling microphone for crystal clear recording. It also integrates a pop filter to eliminate out sound distortions such as pop and hiss noise, guaranteeing perfect results from close up dictation.
• Antimicrobial housing and buttons. The SMP3700’s housing and buttons are made of antimicrobial synthetics, guarding it against all kinds of germs. Antimicrobial materials work against a wide range of different microorganisms such as bacteria (e.g. pneumococcal bacilli and multiresistant microorganisms such as MRSA), viruses (e.g. Covid-19, influenza, etc.), fungi (e.g. Aspergillus niger), or algae. The antimicrobial effect on the SpeechMike Touch lasts for at least five years.
• Automatically assigned buttons. SayIt users do not have to program the buttons on the SpeechMike Touch with an additional app. When SayIt sees the user is dictating with a SpeechMike, it auto-assigns all SayIt functions to the buttons.
