Sennheiser Profile Wireless now with Bluetooth connectivity
Latest firmware update has the all-in-one microphone system connect directly to compatible smartphones.
Dubai, April 14, 2026
Great news for all owners of a one-channel or two-channel Profile Wireless set: the latest firmware update v 5.0.0 adds Bluetooth functionality to the compact microphone system. Creating a minimalist recording set-up, the clip-on mic can be directly paired with mobile phones, laptops or tablets that offer high-quality Bluetooth LE Audio (LC3 codec) or Bluetooth Classic.
“The free firmware update unlocks new possibilities, enabling creators to eliminate the receiver between the Profile Wireless clip-on mic and their mobile phone. This clears the smartphone connector for other usage and makes the set-up as compact as possible,” says product manager Hendrik Millauer.
As usual, the clip-on mic can be fitted with an external lavalier mic, creating a very unobtrusive miking solution. Connecting an external microphone will automatically disable the built-in mic.
A word on audio quality
“For highest audio quality, the Profile Wireless receiver is a must,” shares Millauer. “LE Audio with LC3 will provide creators with good audio quality and latency for any recording where ease of use and compactness are paramount. With a Bluetooth Classic connection, broad compatibility to smart devices and laptops is given but users will have to sacrifice some of the quality that the future-proof Bluetooth LE Audio offers today.”
The new firmware version v 5.0.0 can be downloaded from the Profile Wireless product page, while the online manual has been updated with information on the Bluetooth mode.
