Overview

The Neewer X17 II is a 17-inch teleprompter built for creators who want a professional prompting solution without the hassle of piecing together multiple parts. Its integrated, fold-out design means there is no assembly — take it out of its foam-padded aluminum carrying case, unfold it, mount your camera, and start reading. The HD beamsplitter glass offers 71% light transmittance, striking a balance between clear script reflection and minimal impact on the camera's exposure. Scripts remain legible from up to 13 feet away, giving speakers room to move naturally while staying on message.

Camera mounting is handled by an upgraded quick release plate that is compatible with Manfrotto 501PL heads, allowing one-second top-press locking and easy swapping between the teleprompter and a tripod head. The plate supports cameras up to 44 lbs, and the mounting platform adjusts vertically and slides along a 9.8-inch track to center the lens behind the glass. The included RT113 Bluetooth remote pairs with the free Neewer Teleprompter App (iOS 11.0/Android 6.0+) for wireless script control — pause, adjust speed, and turn pages with silent buttons that won't interfere with audio recording. A zippered sunhood and drawstring lens hood prevent light leakage, and the beamsplitter frame tilts to 45° for optimal viewing angles. When the session is over, the X17 II folds flat for compact storage and transport.

Key Features

【Upgraded Quick Camera Mounting & Switching】 The included upgraded quick release plate is now compatible with Manfrotto 501PL. Compared to traditional sliding plates, the new QR plate can be directly pressed from the top and locked in 1s without alignment. Use the release button to remove the plate and quickly switch the camera on the teleprompter and a tripod head. The 1/4" and 3/8" screws connect DSLR cameras and camcorders of up to 44lb (20kg)

【No Assembly Required】 X17 II Teleprompter lets you read every word of your script fluidly while keeping eye contact with the audience—whether you are delivering a speech, wide angle video recording, vlogging, live streaming, giving an online course, or recording a tutorial. The integrated design is ready to use when taken out of the box and requires no assembly at all

【Ultra Clear HD Beamsplitter】 With 71% light transmittance, the 17" HD clear beamsplitter can reflect scripts clearly and allow you to read confidently from up to 13ft (4m). The frame can tilt at 45° for optimal viewing positions. To center the camera, the mounting platform moves 2.2"-3.5" (56-89mm) up and down and slides on the 9.8" (248mm) track for best camera positions. Zippered sunhood and drawstring lens hood prevent light leakage

【Smart APP Remote Control】 Pair the RT113 remote (included) with your phone inside our NEEWER Teleprompter App via Bluetooth connection, then you can pause, speed up and down, and turn pages of scripts with a few clicks. The remote has a discreet black appearance and silent buttons for unaffected shooting. The app is compatible with iOS 11.0/Android 6.0 and later and available in major app stores for free download

【Universal Compatibility】 The tablet holder suits tablets and smartphones up to 9.3" (235mm) wide, compatible with iPad Pro iPad Air iPad Mini iPhone 15 Pro Max 15 Plus 14 Pro Max 13 Pro Max 13 Mini Samsung Galaxy S23 S22 Ultra Google Pixel 7 Pro Xiaomi Huawei P60 Mate 60 Lenovo, etc. The bottom 1/4" and 3/8" threads fit most video and ball head tripods for stable video recording. For ease of storage and transportation, fold X17 II flat and fit it in the foam padded aluminum alloy carrying base
