Apple Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter

I've had it six months now and it's still going strong like the first say I got it! I use this to play music from my iphone in a car with a cassette tape opening instead of an aux port. I combine it with a cassette to aux adapter (here is the one I use in case you're interested: "arsvita Car Audio Cassette to Aux Adapter, 3.5 MM Auxillary Cable Tape Adapter"). It was like 8 bucks for this and like 7 bucks for the cassette to aux adapter--well worth it to be able to play music in the car!!! Great build quality, reliable connectivity, easy to use. The cable is extremely short but I don't mind (the cassette to aux cord is long which helps).

Needed a new one as my old had a crack in it. It does the job well! Compatible with my iPhone and provides the clearest sound quality!

Works great. Sometimes I have to hand tighten the connection, mainly because of gravity, not a default in the design.

This worked perfectly to connect my phone to headphones when needed. I haven't used it a lot but I like having the option available. I have it stored in a drawer when not in use and haven't had any issues with it thus far. Simple, doesn't take up a lot of space, and good quality.

Worked well, but I wish it lasted longer. - Sound quality, etc was fine. Probably decent for studio use (less stress on bends, plugging/unplugging). However for use with headphones, especially while working or being active, I have been wanting something more durable or lasting.

Like all Apple accessories, you are getting a very high quality product that is worth it over the price you pay for cheaper, third-party options.

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.

I'm on this page to purchase a new adapter just like the one (or 2?)I previously used, which seems to have been lost by the certain kiddo of mine who loses stuff as often as I do—or misplaced by me.Okay, first, so I first purchased the now-lost adapter from *this* listing/this seller, as Amazon points out at the top of this page. (See pic.)Second, even minor audio stuff is a bigger deal to me than (I really imagine) to most people, as my actual professional is that of a professional "art music" ["classical" musician, as most understandably say—but that term has some problems of which of course I'll spare you the details here]. So, all I'm saying is, I notice audio quality, & I have little patience even for arguably poor CALL quality or whatnot. For these reasons, I think I'm qualified to assure you.Last time I got this from this retailer, there was, as I recall, no concern about any generic-type packagIng—no concern about it being a knock-off immediately.More important, as this was my first such adapter, I remember being quite pleasantly pleased with everything about it. I used it with whichever iPhone(s) I had at the time for calls & on-the-go media listening, as well as a with my iPad Pro for listening, recording, etc., with earbuds when whatever I was listening to was not some huge deal, and for more-huge-deal listening with my beloved Audio-Technicas,, a [surprisingly great, particularly for noise cancelling] paid of Bose, or either of my "audiophile" young kids' high-end Sonys (&, btw, I'm not ax mum who gets my kids unduly high-end things, but I found those, obviously MAjorly mistakenly under-priced on Amazon Prime Now ~15 months ago, so I of course snatched those instead of getting the correctly priced cheap ones).NO PROBLEM AT ALL with this adapter, for however long I had it readily available (maybe over a year), & I've personally no reason to have believs the seller has "gone to the dark side" or whatever.BUT, as I'm ordering a couple of so more of these today for same-day delivery, I PROMISE you that if there's ANY problem, I'll add an addendum to this. Okay? (And, yeah, I KNOW a lot of folks say stuff like that, but they unexpectedly get too busy, or forget, or have become so fed up with Amz they can't tolerate anything concerning reviews. I get it. But, when it comes to anything that disrupts my music-listening or playing, I'll hop on Amazon to warn folks. (Not the case [as consistently] with so many of the not-well-considered, purchased, cheap clothing, my very rare "home decor" purchases or whatever.And, you know, I used to review thingx rather diligently because the review set-up used to be (long, long ago) really helpful. But now, there are so many maddeningly obvious fake reviews, and maddeningly non-obvious (paid-for)!fake reviews—sellersv getting pressured to hype their often-pointless drop-ship merchandise, or (even worse) sellers paying folks to rip apart competitors' wares. The system now has too little utility for me to bother with it.But, as I promised, if there's a problem with my new purchase here, I'll let you know. If I don't (by, like, early February 2021), you can assume I'm pleased as punch with the new purchase (or that something terrible has happened in, or to, my life—but as I'm confined to home, with good security system, & as we're in good health these days, just assume the news adapters all worked out.Okay. Metrorail stop coming up, so I'll end this odd review with verrbose, general commentary, Take care.
