    Plugs into my iPhone 7 with no issues. Charging was the same. It did allow me to listen to my music and charge my phone at the same time. No issues with lightning headphones plugging in and working. I'm ok with the headphone jack not being on the iPhone 7, however, this makes it just another adapter to keep up with. However, for those like me I mostly listen to my music on speakerphone, which may be a deal breaker for some iPhone fans. However, this adapter worked as advertised. No issues overall.

    I have tried so many different adapters that claim they support my iPhone 11 Pro and had a problem charging with every one. I tried this one because it head great reviews and again, did not charge my phone it only played audio. Will be returning for refund

      Hi, Anita,

      The Belkin Rockstar is expected to work right out of the box. Our Support team could have checked the product and helped you in getting it replaced. Should you need assistance with your other Belkin devices, please reach out to us at [email protected] anytime.

      Hey there. This certainly is not the experience we wanted you to have with the product. We’ll have our phone support team investigate on the setback further. Please reach out to the team through our hotline: https://www.belkin.com/support-article/?articleNum=55022

    Maybe I just got a bad batch. The headphones and charger won’t pick up in it. Headphones will be OK then I’ll hear as if I’m losing connection and then nothing, charger has completely stopped working thru these. Using apple approved headphones/charger as well. I plan on taking this back and seeing if a new one does the same.

      Hi, Ashley,

      This is clearly not the experience that we wanted you to have from our Charge Rockstar. Please allow us to check if you probably got a faulty item at [email protected] so we can have it replaced. Indicate your contact details and the link to this post for reference.

      Hi, Ozzie,

      It is expected that your Charge Rockstar should work reliably on compatible devices like iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, and any Lightning device that runs iOS 10 or later. Please share with us the details at [email protected] and we'll have one of our Support Technicians look closely into this odd behavior. Include your contact information and the link to this post.

    DON’T Buy. Worked 37 days then broke. 7 days post 30 day return policy so can’t get refund sadly. The connector part doesn’t hold up and now it doesn’t allow me to use the device. Horrible for the “top of the line” product. Save your money.

      Hi,

      The Belkin Lightning Audio + Charge RockStar should last longer than described. You can try to use the cable with a different iOS device for isolation but, allow us to assist you further. Please share more details at Belkincares@belkin.com with the link to this review for our reference.

    Worked fine for a week or so then the audio started cutting out. Would only work again if i unplugged it and plugged it in again. Thought it was the aux cable i was using but it wasn’t. Turned out it’s this. Don’t recommend it.

    This is my third time purchasing this adapter and each time it shorts out really fast. I'm not the type of person who is aggressively handling them either. But, this is not a good buy, over time that is.

      Hi, DebB,


      The Belkin Lightning Audio Charge Rockstar is a plug and play device that supports in-car charging and playing audio through the car's AUX input to audio system. It would help us further isolate things if you can try the unit with a different compatible device. Reach out to us at [email protected] with your findings along with your complete contact details so we can properly assist you. Don't forget to include the link to this review for our reference.

      We hope to hear from you soon.

    This device has a problem and does not work as it is advertised. It is surprising since Belkin usually makes good stuff. It won't work with two devices, one to charge, the other is headphones. We returned it for a "not full" refund. Best Buy had some BS about the refund.
