    This is what I needed, especially for the additional adaptation I needed. No issues.

    Very short lifetime

    After buying several similar but far less expensive adapters, only to have them all fail within a couple of months, I decided to step up & spend more money to get the name brand (Belkin) adapter. It worked great...for a little less than 4 months. Now my phone charges only intermittently through the adapter, and the buttons on my earbuds no longer work when connected through the adapter. Note that both the charger and the earbuds work fine when plugged directly into the phone. The adapter has not been subject to abusive use. I charge my phone nightly through the adapter, where it sits on the table next to my bed. I'm very disappointed in the short lifetime of this adapter.

      Hi, Cobalt60,

      The Belkin F8J198 Lightning Audio + Charge RockStar should work longer than described. You can try to use the adapter on a different iOS device and try another headphone to see if there's any difference. For further assistance, you can share more details at BelkinCares@belkin.com and share more details with the link to this review for our reference.

    The product does exactly what you need which is charge and audio . The only thing that I frown upon is the cable gets a turtle neck like the iphone chargers and then renders completely useless

    After about only 2 weeks headphones wouldn't work with it unless I moved it a certain way. The charging never stops but it doesn't pick up that I have headphones in. Very useful, but needs to be tougher. If they would glued the wires where they are soldered.

    While using this product my phone kept going in and out of charge. It doesn’t happen all the time, but it does happen. The lightening charge cord I have is not an Apple product but the headphones are. Not sure if this has anything to do with it but just thought I would give as much info as possible.

      Hi, FRESH817,

      Thank you for letting us know about the behavior of your Rockstar. To isolate, try another Lightning cable and observe if the charging behavior is still intermittent. Update us with the results at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this post for easy reference.
