What to Compare Before Buying
- Phone connection: This model uses USB-C and is for iPhones with USB-C. Check the exact iPhone port type before choosing.
- Image output: The unit uses Vivid IR upscaling to 480 x 360 from 160 x 120. Compare that with the level of detail you want for inspection work.
- Temperature range and accuracy: The stated accuracy applies only when the unit is within 15 °C – 35 °C and the scene is within 5 °C – 120 °C. Check that these limits suit the jobs you plan to do.
- App-based guidance: The FLIR One app includes inspection guides, so confirm that you are happy to use the app as part of the workflow.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
Compatibility is the main buying check here. This version is for iPhones with USB-C, including iPhone 15 and newer. It plugs directly into the phone charging port, so the connector type needs to match the device exactly.
If your phone uses a different connector, this version is not the right choice. Check the exact phone model and port before choosing an offer.
What Else You May Need
You will need a compatible iPhone with USB-C, plus the FLIR One app for the inspection guides and temperature reading workflow.
Using It in Practice
The camera is aimed at inspection tasks where thermal detail matters, such as checking for air leaks or moisture buildup. The merged thermal and visual image can help make the display easier to read when you are comparing warm and cool areas on surfaces.
Before You Decide
Confirm that your iPhone has USB-C, since this model plugs directly into the phone charging port. Check whether the stated 480 x 360 upscaled image, temperature range and app-based inspection guides match the kind of thermal checks you want to carry out.
If you need a different connector type, this version will not be the right fit.
