Re: query about Belkin splitter was: any good lightning head set recommendation

2017-03-18 Thread Wayne Merritt
Tara,
if I understand your question, the Belkin splitter has one lightning
plug and two lightning ports. If the keyboard could plug into one of
those lightning ports, then you could probably use it to charge and
use the keyboard at the same time. Otherwise, it doesn't sound like
it. Perhaps someone will or has created a similar splitter that can
let you connect different devices for a low price. I haven't regretted
my purchase of the Belkin Rock Star splitter in the last few months.

Good luck,
Wayne

Hi all.
I am aware about this splitter but not sure if the other side can be
used for any other purpose. I am hoping to use this splitter to charge
the phone while I am using a wired keyboard on an Ipad. Does anybody
know if that is possible?

Ari,

I know some of the third-party lightning splitters they sell on Amazon don't 
allow use of the earpod remote buttons when connected through them. The Belkin 
one sold through the Apple Store does allow full functionality and I use mine 
all the time with my wired earpods and my iPhone 7 while it's charging.

I'll do that. Can't remember where I heard you can't use the iPhone controller 
with these splitters, but I remember it was on an article I was reading 
comparing a few splitters that had a lightning port and a 3.5 mm headphone 
port. Thanks for letting me know that the headphone controller works with the 
Belkin splitter.

Hi.  I have the Belkin Rockstar splitter, which can be found at the Apple store 
and Best Buy for $39.99.  I use it with my iPhone 7 Plus.  It has a lightning 
end on a cord  which protrudes a few inches from a flattened rectangle.  In the 
flattened rectangle, there are 2 lightening ports to plug in your Lightning to 
USB cord on one side and your Lightning to 3.5 mm headphone/earphone  adapter 
on the other side.  Each side takes either cord so you do not need to worry 
about which port takes which cord.  I find my wired earphones/headphones work 
very well with no features being hindered.  The lightning to 3.5 mm 
headphone/earphone adapter can also be found at Best Buy or your phone carrier 
for $9.99.  This is the same headphone /earphone adapter that came with my 
iPhone 7 Plus.  I picked up a couple to leave on the end of my 
headphones/earphones and I keep another plugged into the splitter along with my 
lightning to USB cord.  When I travel and need to use my earphones for privacy, 
they are always ready to go with the earphone adapter already plugged in.  Hope 
this helps.

Gadget Girl

Ari,

I'd recommend you attach the approximately 2-inch 3.5mm female to lightning 
male adapter that comes with the iPhone 7 to your headphones to make them in 
effect lightning headphones. I'd then suggest getting the Belkin Lightning 
Audio + Charge Rockstar adapter from the Apple Store for $39.95. It will give 
you the capability to both charge and listen at the same time and all the 
remote and volume buttons on the Apple earpods work with the Belkin adapter and 
should work with this arrangement provided your headphones have the compatible 
controls.

Have you been able to find any splitters that have a lightning port and a 3.5 
mm headphone port? I have a pair of headphones that I like, but they aren't 
lightning ones, because I have the 6S. I don't want to have to carry around two 
adapters if I can help it. Also, I've heard somewhere that all these splitters 
don't allow you to use the iPhone controller on your headphones, and that any

that lets you control your music with your headphones?

Re: any good lightning head set recommendation

2017-03-17 Thread englishrider91
Have you been able to find any splitters that have a lightning port and a 3.5 
mm headphone port? I have a pair of headphones that I like, but they aren't 
lightning ones, because I have the 6S. I don't want to have to carry around two 
adapters if I can help it. Also, I've heard somewhere that all these splitters 
don't allow you to use the iPhone controller on your headphones, and that any 
music control has to be performed from your phone. Have you found a splitter 
that lets you control your music with your headphones?


Thanks,
Ari

You can if you buy the Belkin splitter for $40, it plugs into the phone's 
lightning port and then gives you two lightning ports, one to plug in your 
charge cable and one to plug in a headset.

I have to strongly second Sieghard's recommendation of the Apple wired earpods 
whether with the lightning connector or the 3.5mm connector. I've used both the 
lightning connector set that came with my iPhone 7 and an older 3.5mm set with 
the adapter on my iPhone 7 with great success. For the $30 cost, these wired 
earpods give me the best sound, fit, and control of any wired headset I've used 
and I've used plenty through the years. The control given by the remote button 
when reading a book is so convenient when I'm listening to a book while tooling 
around.

Re: any good lightning head set recommendation

2017-03-14 Thread Marie
I am with you completely when it comes to the ear buds from Apple. I have 
small ear canals but can wear these all day with no discomfort, good sound 
and still able to hear what is going on around me. I also wear the hearing 
aids with the small rod that fits into the ear and I can use the Apple buds 
even when wearing the aids. Best deal around.

I really like the Earpods that come with all iPhones, I guess you should 
have received a set of Earpods with Lightning connector with your iPhone 7. 
They are also available as a separate purchase.
I purchased a set to use at home with my iPhone 6S Plus just because I like 
to have a back-up in case my every-day pair breaks and I also was curious as 
to the sond quality of Lightning versus 3.5mm jack.
For whatever it's worth my 50-year old ears hear maybe a very small quality 
improvement, but not that much. I definitely think the Earpods whether 3.5mm 
or Lightning are one of the best headset deals in that price range out 
there. I know there are some people say the Earpods don't fit them well and 
that's of course a problem, but they fit my ears great, they stay put and I 
like how I can just put them in lightly and get good sound yet still hear 
95% of everything else going on around me.
If you don't like those it would help if you described more what you are 
looking for as in the headset style, e.g. earbuds, on-ear, over-ear, price 
point etc.

Sieghard
