Apple Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter

Works great! The slim and light weight design makes it perfect for on the go and at-home recordings. It is compatible with all of my phones with a lightning connector. I love this dongle.

Worked well, and has held up over time

Worked perfectly. Very durable. I have put it through everything and it is still holding out strong. Connection is great. Sound quality is good.

I hope you don't need this, as lightning ports are the worst means of charging ever created, but this product works fine, if your device can even connect to anything lightning

Compact, Reliable, and Still the Best Lightning Adapter Around Apple’s Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter is one of those simple accessories that just works—and that’s exactly what makes it great. It’s compact, lightweight, and connects seamlessly to any iPhone or iPad with a Lightning port. I’ve used this adapter for everything from plugging in studio headphones to connecting my phone to an older car stereo system, and it’s consistently provided clean, full audio without distortion or lag. The build quality feels premium despite its tiny size. The cable portion is short but flexible, which helps prevent fraying or stress on the connector. Sound clarity is excellent—it delivers full stereo output and works equally well for music, calls, and podcasts. Unlike many third-party versions I’ve tried, the genuine Apple adapter doesn’t cause static, dropouts, or that annoying “accessory not supported” message. That said, it’s not indestructible. Heavy bending or rough use can eventually cause connection wear, so it’s worth keeping a spare in your car, desk, or travel bag. Still, for reliability, compatibility, and sound quality, the genuine Apple adapter remains the gold standard. Bottom line: A small but essential tool that performs flawlessly—worth the few extra dollars for the authentic Apple version that you can count on every time.

95% of people will buy this just to be able to connect their wired headphones to their iPhone, but what they won't realize is this a very capable DAC/amp (emphasis more on the DAC) that powers relatively low impedance headphones with ease and measures incredibly well for the price. I plugged HD58x's into these (relatively easy to power) and they got plenty loud enough and sounded great. You can tell when going from something like a Liquid Spark or JDS Atom to this that the openness and separation does suffer a little bit, but it's shocking how close they are. What this won't do is properly power high impedance headphones. It's not a ton of power into 32 ohms, so when you start to get to 250 ohms+ it's not capable enough to take full advantage of what those headphones can do. Still, this is absolutely the best DAC/amp you can buy for under $10 and represents one of the best values in audio in my opinion. I didn't really need this for any specific reason, but I bought it to play around with and am super pleased with its performance. I'll still use my desktop setup most of the time, but if I want to walk around the house and don't want to use Bluetooth, this is the only way to go. If you're just looking for a converter and don't understand or care about most of what is written above, you'll also be very pleased. Essentially, these will make your headphones sound better while providing a strong, secure connection into your phone. I can't recommend this product enough.

Works fine

Sure, it's a free add-on with your iPhone, and it isn't the most durable option available, but if you need to go wired this is one of the best options at any price. This review is from a beginner audiophile perspective. AudioScienceReview and Ken Rockwell have measured this little DAC/amp and proven that it measures better than some options costing 10x as much (the Audirect Beam for instance), and while it probably won't outshine an Audioquest Dragonfly, it's still essentially the older iPhone's already-great internal sound chip, but removed from that chassis and further isolated electronically. On top of this, it has a very low sub-1-ohm output impedance and so is perfect for use with sensitive, and/or impedance-dependant IEMs, like Campfire's Andromeda, or the Massdrop Plus. Beyond that, there's enough voltage on tap for even some more demanding headphones, like the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X*. I personally like the sound it puts out more than the Shanling M0's headphone-out. Honestly, if you're still using wired headphones, this dongle will provide measurably transparent, clear, and detailed sound, while driving most of your in-ear, and over-ear headphones. You really and truly can't do much better for the price, and I'd 100% recommend getting an Apple replacement before getting another brand or knockoff product. I would also recommend this before recommending a pair of Lightning-terminated headphones, as these will give you the option to use whatever headphones you want**. Apple really needs to swap to USB-C on their phones though (lol). * As a note, more amplification can of course improve your listening experience with higher impedance, or lower sensitivity headphones. 1v isn't as much as a Dragonfly Red or Cobalt, and if you have demanding headphones, and are looking for a portable solution, then you might be better served there, but you're looking at 20x to 30x the price, respectively. This product is cheap enough that if you're not sure, purchase one, and keep it on hand as a reference, to compare and see if a different or competing product is worth it. ** As another note, If you plan to use a pair of Audeze iSine earphones with your iPhone, then I would definitely recommend a Cipher Cable over this product, as the iSine really and truly benefits from the tuning Audeze did within their Cipher cables. //Disclaimer// I have not been asked, paid, or otherwise compensated for the content of this review.
