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.

    Auxiliary to Bluetooth

    I only have an auxiliary input in my vehicle so this came in perfectly so I can charge my iPhone and stream my music with the auxiliary. As a bonus which I did not know, when you make a phone call or receive a phone call, it acts as a microphone also and the persons voice will be heard over the speakers, perfect

    Great adapter

    This adapter plus my aux cable saved me over $600 and having to buy and install a whole new receiver in my truck. It charges my phone all while playing my music since my stereo isn't Bluetooth. I will eventually swap that out but this was a great solution to my problem for the time being. The only reason for the 4 stars and not 5 is I feel that it is a bit on the bulky side.

    Belkin is really the only brand I trust to make high quality cables and connectors that always do what they promise without failing prematurely. Especially when it comes to Apple product compatibility, Belkin is the best of the best.

    This little gadget allows you to use standard earbuds and still charge your newer iPhone. Highly recommended if you don’t want to go Bluetooth. Still not sure about any harmful effects of Bluetooth on the brain. Good quality and BB matched Amazon’s price. That’s why we shop there.

    Great Legacy tech for old cars and iPhones

    I need this to run an aux cable in my car to my iPhone XS, along with a lightning cable. This replaces one that I used for over 5 years. These type of splitters can often be flaky and degrade over time, but the Belkin one is the best, and for those without Bluetooth or CarPlay you can't beat the price or the amount of time you'll use it. Just be careful flexing it too much and you'll get many years usage.

    Not a great solution

    Product quality and functionality are great, but this dongle is pretty bulky for my taste. Granted, this type of product is on it's way out as connectors charge and wireless headsets become more the norm, but there are better designed and more compact solutions available.

    I bought and tested a couple dongles found on Amazon and the quality was terrible. The Belkin model that Best Buy carries is made of excellent quality and I recommend it. Currently using with an aux cord connected to my Jeep so I can take calls and stream music from my iPhone XR.

    I bought this to hook into a sound system that only had a 3.5mm audio jack available. It is nice that this adaptor also lets me charge my device while also playing music. Very glad I spent a little extra to get an adaptor that was certified to work with Apple products.
