Belkin Lightning Adapter Solves iPhone 7 Listen While Charging Problem

All you have to do is attach it to your iPhone and plug in a charging cable and a pair of EarPods; then you’ll be good to go. One of the chief complaints with this situation is the inability to both charge and listen to wired audio at the same time. Yep, $40 to do what your current phone already does now. What a time to be alive.

Apple’s Phil Schiller made the case for why the iPhone 7 doesn’t have a headphone jack.

But for those not ready to cut the cord, Belkin has its Lightning Audio + Charge RockStar adapter, which it has created in collaboration with Apple.

Apple chief executive Tim Cook revealed in a presentation on San Francisco last night that 3.5mm headphone jack that was a feature of all previous generations of the iPhone has been scrapped to make room for other technological innovations.

As its name suggests, the device is simply a Lightning port splitter.

One adapter plugged into the phone, another adapter plugged into the original adapter and the headphones plugged into the second adapter that’s plugged into the adapter plugged into the iPhone 7. Since its June launch, more than 100 schools and school districts around the world have committed to using the Swift Playgrounds coding education app curriculum this year, he said.

As of the latest news from Apple Inc. This accessory costs about $39.95 (roughly Rs. 2,700) and will be available starting October 10 on the Belkin website, the Apple online store and Apple retail stores. Which means people around the world stayed up into the wee hours of the morning refreshing webpages, hoping to be one of the first people to get their hands on a piece of that sweet, sweet headphone-jack-less, water-resistant Apple tech.
