Apple Charge And Headphone Dongle

Works fine at half the price of Apple's dongle.

This really is the only option to Apple removing the headphone jack and giving the user a way to charge and listen at the same time. Dongle-he$$ but what can you do. Works as advertised.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since Apple removed the headphone jack from the iPhone it’s been a challenge to listen and charge my phone. This allow me to do both, charge and use my headphones.

If you use the apple headphone adapter, you can also use it with iPhone X

This thing is microscopic. I bought another USB-C dongle with separate mic and headphone jacks. It is bulkier and definitely has limited frequency response though the headphone jack. This, on the other hand, is as small as it could possibly be, and produces flawless audio with no hiss. That's impressive, given that this obviously isn't an exotic digital-to-analog chip set, and the device is so inexpensive.

This comes as a two part device. It is a very good sounding TRS plug-in-power mic, and an inexpensive USB audio dongle with an input and a headphone output. It is NOT a TRRS device (which I think it said it was somewhere), and a trrs is only generally used for something with both a headphone and a mic. The mic sounds very good, any self noise well below the living room background noise, good sensitivity. I used it with a handheld recorder which supplies about 2.5 volts, which is required by this condenser mic. I suspect that the ring on the TRS plug is not connected to anything, just there to avoid contact with something that could cause a problem. On this windows 7 computer, the USB device did not work, and I was not going to use it anyway, so I am only reporting on the microphone. I did not troubleshoot the USB dongle, could have been a reboot or something would fix it. I suspect previous reviewer (Karen) had either a defective device, or misunderstood how to use it, or had the same trouble I had with the USB part.

Does exactly what you’d expect it to do. Dongle dongle y’all.

You know.... I don't really mind that apple got rid of the 3.5mm Jack in favor of wireless, and then completely stopped shipping the adapter dongle with devices But I wish they would figure out how to make the Bluetooth work properly with certain devices, like if you play a video while connected to my Vehicle radio the audio is not synced to the video, I understand this is the vehicles fault but to not even have a setting to correct for that is ridiculous. Direct connections fix this and the belkin usb-c to 3.5mm cable is a far superior and durable solution than apple's easily worn out or damaged dongle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Apple products and dongle life aside, this Belkin dongle makes things a lot easier in connecting the slew of devices that I have left over from my pre usb c life. The dongle works well - I didn’t have any apple comparability issues.
