Lightning Cable Adapter For Headphones

Excellent Lightning adapter for headphones; outrageously fair price!

This cable adapter is enabling me to use my old wire headphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Full disclosure: I was sent this product to review it. Honestly, it works great for its intended purpose. I was able to charge my phone and connect Lightning headphones at the same time. I didn't notice any difference in sound quality between plugging the headphones into this product or plugging them straight into my iPhone. They also work perfectly with the 3.5 mm to Lightning adapter provided by Apple with my phone. The RockStar feels sturdy and uses Apple's signature look well. If it weren't for the Belkin logo on the Lightning plug, this could easily have been mistaken for something made by Apple. It also couldn't be simpler to use. Plug it into the iPhone and plug your headphones and power cord into either available port. There are only two things I could think of to make this product better. First would have been to have one port be a 3.5 mm jack. I only have the one pair of lightning headphones Apple provided and the adapter. I have a pile of old headphones though. My second thought would have been, if you have two Lightning ports on the adapter, let it be used to plug in two sets of headphones to act as a splitter. This may be a limitation set by Apple and not the product itself, but it would add a level of use to the RockStar. If you use Lightning headphones or 3.5 mm headphones with a Lightning adapter, this is a great product to be able to listen to music while you charge your phone. Personally, I use Bluetooth about 99.9% of the time, but I'm glad I have this product for those times I can't.

Excellent authentic Apple power adapter for plugging iPhone lightning cable to wall outlet. B&H always has those tidbits we cannot live without, thank you!!

This adapter transforms micro your micro USB cable into a much sturdier than Apple's original Lightning cable. It snaps on tightly, charges and transfers data well, works for both iPhone and iPad.

This is an adapter, NOT a cable. That said, as an adapter it does it's job well. I have used it to plug my iPhone (Lightning) into my PC (both USB-C and USB-A) to transfer files and it worked without a hitch. Useful as an adapter, but not long enough to be called a cable by any means.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Full disclosure: I was sent this product to review. This is a great cable. The lightning cables have been around for years now so there isn't really anything new or innovative that makes this product stand out. But it is well made and feels durable. It's a great length and it works as you would expect it to. One thing that does impress me is that the plastic end with the lightning adapter is identical to the end of an official Apple cable. I've had a few third party lightning cables over the years and every one of them had a longer and usually fatter lightning adapter end. Sometimes an Apple cable would fit through the hole in a case to charge my phone but a third party cable wouldn't. In this case, Belkin's cable is just as capable as an original lightning cable. This is the first time I can remember thinking that anyone has made a cable as good as the one provided with the iPhone.

I wanted the kids to be able to watch YouTube videos on a TV, this adapter made it happen. It was easy to connect my iPad to the television. Just insert the lightning plug into the iPad (or iPhone), connect to the TV via an HDMI cable and connect a lightning charging cable to the adapter and watch. Whatever is on the iPad shows up on the TV. The kids use the iPad as a controller and both can watch full size videos.

Excellent and Convenient Lightning HDMI Adapter

This is just the cable that I was looking for to allow me to connect my Bose headphones to my PC. The cable works perfect! I had ordered another adapter from Amazon but it did not work with my Bose headphones. This adapter is exactly what I needed to use my built-in microphone on my Bose headset. Great price and in stock!
