Has it sunk in however? The headphone jack, that tiny port that's been integral to handheld audio devices and phones for decades, is headed to the grave. It really is all because of Apple, which took the "courageous" step of eliminating the hole in the name of throwing stereo speakers into the iPhone 7$649.99 at T-Mobile, and, probably, all future iOS (and Mac?) devices.

That leaves iPhone 7 users with two solutions if you'd like private audio. The smartest: get a set of Bluetooth headphones/earphones. That is arguably what Apple is pushing most-an untethered audio encounter.

Having said that, there is certainly still the Lightning connector. Utilized mostly as the power and data port, Lightning is already a pretty excellent slot for acquiring audio to headphones and earphones. It's been utilised for speaker docks for many years.

A handful of headphones that plug into Lightning are currently accessible. Some include further features you could not get on a three.5mm headphone jack-like noise cancellation without having additional batteries within the headphones. That's since the noise cancellation requires the extra power needed from the iPhone! Obviously, you can not charge your iPhone in the exact same time without the need of spending an further $39.99 to have the an adapter.

We leave it as much as you for those who will need that. Meanwhile, here's a take a look at the numerous headphones/earbuds/earphones you will get correct now to plug into the Lightning connector.
