Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the audio quality, compatibility, and charging capabilities of the RockStar Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Cable. The ease of use is also a well-received feature. However, some customers find the price a bit high and the size somewhat bulky. There are also a few concerns about battery drain and the design.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    After a couple months it became intermittent in charging. Now when you bump the wire it stops the media playing. The phone does not like this usb device.

      This shouldn't be happening as we made sure that our Belkin Rockstars were engineered and tested for long-term use. Please reach out to us at [email protected] so we can have one of our Product Experts check the intermittent charging behavior of your device. In your email, include your contact details and the link to this post for easy reference.

      Hi LlamaMama,

      It is unusual for the adapter to stop working after a short amount of time. If you still have the other adapters, we can check its warranty and possibly process a replacement for you.

      Just send us your contact details at [email protected] so that we can have our Customer Service Team look into your case. Don't forget to include the link to this post as a reference.

      We hope to hear from you soon.

      Hi Steve,

      Thank you for the honest review. Using other chargers and earphones will help. Rebooting and testing other compatible devices are advised. You may email your observations to BelkinCares@belkin.com with the link to this review for reference.

    Junk… The majority of the Belkin products I have bought, including this cable, tend to stop working after a couple of months. This cable was bought in January for DJ streaming and it no longer works. I probably used it lesser than 50 times since January. Spend the extra money and buy the Apple one.

    This thing works great but the literally only last a year or less which is frustrating as expensive as it is. Bought on Sept 20, had to replace Nov 21 and now (Sept 22) that one is going out. Starts making a horrible static noise when being plugged in. Bad quality!

    Bought this on line and picked up outside the store....a very good service. However, it is the wrong size USB for my use and I did not understand that from the info provided on line. Sooooo.....it didn't fix my problem and now I am not sure how to return it. I guess my problem is with the description and not the product itself. Frustrated.........

    Weird Sounds

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It may be impossible to work around, but whenever both the charger and the aux are plugged in there is a high pitched squeal that changes in pitch depending on the RPMs of the motor. As the RPMs increase, the squeal got higher pitched, and likewise.... It works totally fine other than that, and as long as your music is loud enough to cover it, it is not too noticeable.

      Hi CoolDude711,

      This is totally unexpected. Our cables are designed for extreme durability and should have lasted long enough than this. Allow us to sort things out for you by sending an email at [email protected] with your contact details, the link to this review, and a photo of the frayed cable. Let's continue from there to better assist.
