A wave of compact MagSafe-compatible mobile lights has been hitting the market lately, offering new options for content creators. Among them, the amaran Go combines a handy magnetic mount, flip design, and built-in mirror light to deliver a versatile and portable solution. Lightweight and easy to use, it’s designed to simplify lighting for creators at all levels.
Compact MagSafe-compatible lights have been popping up everywhere, with brands like Harlowe and SmallRig introducing options like the Sol 5 and Vibe P48. Now, Amaran—a brand created by Aputure for content creators—joins the scene with the amaran Go. This ultra-compact mini LED light snaps securely to your phone with a magnetic mount, while a handy adapter sticker ensures compatibility with non-MagSafe devices. Its flip design makes it easy to switch between front and rear camera setups, offering flexibility for various creative needs.
The amaran Go also adds a built-in mirror light, pairing adjustable illumination with a compact mirror for quick touch-ups before shooting. Users can toggle between the main light and the mirror light with the press of a button. With 10 adjustable brightness levels and 10 color temperature settings, it’s easy to adapt the lighting for different moods or environments. Lightweight and pocket-sized, it’s available in five colours, making it easy to personalize your setup while staying ready to create wherever inspiration strikes.
