Apple Laptop Red Light Headphone Jack

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.] I was not happy when Apple got rid of the headphone jack, and held on to my old iPhone as long as I could. Eventually, I wanted to update my phone to a newer version, which meant losing the headphone jack. That means I had to choose between charging or music, but this little piece of technology has fixed that! Now I can charge my phone and play music through my aux at the same time. It works flawlessly!

[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.

My headphone jack was broken on my admittedly old laptop. This enabled me to still use headphones for a small cost, and not replace the whole computer. I can also confirm that it works via a USB hub.

I bought a used Lenovo W510 laptop which had a combined headphone/mic jack. Nice computer, but I wanted to use it with Audacity to make digital recordings. This unit is inexpensive, plugs in and works just great. Small enough to carry it in the bag with the laptop. 93 dB s/n ratio gives clean, quiet recordings. Recommend to anybody who gets a computer with combined headphone/mic jack.

Works nice to split a combo laptop single mic and headphone jack into two separate ports. Ports are clearly labeled as to which is the mic input and which is the headphone input. Simple but functional.

I use this product in voice over work and love the crystal clear reproduction. A bit bulky, but worth it. As a caveat, DO NOT try using this with a Sony Vaio laptop as you are unable to listen to the audio that has been recorded on the laptop using the Yeti headphone jack. Nor can you monitor what is being recorded from the Yeti while using the Vaio headphone jack, the Sony laptop is totally worthless for field recording and editing.

Excellent quality. I am using this on my MacPro laptop, plugged into the headphone jack to GarageBand. Because the 1/8 connection is tip-ring-ring-sleeve, the Mac recognizes this as input when connect to an audio console.

I bought these to connect to my Surface Pro Laptop, which does not have a headphone jack. These work great and provide sufficient sound quality for conference calls.

An alternative to using the headphone jack on your MacBook Pro.
