Customer Ratings & Reviews

I understand that Apple decided to go with the new output port to make it more waterproof, but it is a pain if you loose your new earphones that come with it. This adapter is perfect! Works great 100% of the time with even the oldest set I own.

Lost this piece for my iPhone 7 and I searched on Amazon for the item but was out of luck. Came in to Bestbuy asked one of the employees and he took me straight to it. Works great.

I lost my earbuds that had the Apple lightning end, so bought this to work with older earphones that didn’t have the lightning end. Works great! (Wireless earbuds are on my Christmas list this year!)

works perfectly with any iOS device with a lightning adapter. have yet to run into a 3.5mm headset that doesn't work with this. it really sucks to lose this item so buy a couple (they're only $10) and you'll have a spare all the time!

i can connect to everything apple with this one and use my headphones for everything that isnt apple

This is an essential connector for me since I listen to audio books much of the time and don't care for the fit of the apple earbuds. I have bought several, and this device has worked perfectly for me. I wholeheartedly recommend them to others.

Very useful and necessary adapter. I have several.

Works perfectly if you want to use wired ear phones

I upgraded from an iphone 6s+ to an iphone xr. Since Apple no long supplies the 3.5mm to lightning dongle, I had to buy my own. I think the price is slightly high for what it is. I bought an after market one on amazon, but it gave feedback. This dongle makes the sound crisp and clear, and does not cause static when moved around. I recommend, but wish Apple would've supplied it in the box.

I cannot say anything bad about the actual adapter itself in terms of quality, everything is OK there. Where I am docking one star is because I have to use this thing in the first place (if I want wired audio quality that is to say). I'll refrain from preaching about audio philosophies and such, but I will recommend this nonetheless for people who just can't do wireless audio at the moment.

Bought it and it works fine. Easy to find on the shelves where they’re fully stocked. Plus right next to the earbuds I was looking for.

Nothing special but it does what its supposed to do with the newer phones and older 3.5mm jacks. I use it with my Bose QC in ear headphones while traveling. I don't think Apple includes this with their current phones anymore.

I lost my headphone adapter for my IPhone 7plus and was easily able to purchase one at my local Best Buy. It works as advertised and now I'm up and running and listening to my favorite music. Best Buy keeps these in stock so it was easy to purchase.

This handy little item helped with a minor inconvenience caused by a very generous gift. An I-Pad, our first Apple product. My daughter can now use her already expensive head set without pressing dear old papa to go I-Pods please.

This was bought for my daughter. She wanted to use wired headphones, instead of her air pods, going to and from school. She, in fact, told me Best Buy had it!

We buy these all the time because one of my family member always looses their wired headphones. We buy inexpensive headphones for that reason & they require an adapter. The adapters work great and flawlessly with all iPhones.

Works great but it is a pain in the but that apple has to change the headphone jack so that they can sell an adapter

While it's too bad that you need this accessory in order to use standard earphones with lightning-only devices, the Apple brand adapter is fairly inexpensive, beautifully made, and durable, and it doesn't seem to impair the sound quality.

MUCH better than the slightly cheaper off-brand adapters. Have one I found from 5 years ago and that one still works!! Worth the money.

I see this as a must have. We all have wired headphones of some sort. But this product is perfect to make them work with newer iphone and ipads, etc. If you have lighting connectors and that favorite set of headphones, you need this!
