6 awesome Lightning headphone adapters for your iPhone 8

The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus no longer includes a tiny adapter that lets you use the phone's Lightning port with 3.5mm wired headphones. Don't worry; you can still buy one separately. On this list, you'll find Apple's official adapter plus some third-party options to enjoy.

It's official

Apple Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter

This adapter used to ship with iPhones. Now, you need to pay for this accessory separately. If you only buy Apple accessories for your Apple products, this is the (only) one you can buy for your iPhone.

Dual solution

iNassen Lightning Jack Headphone Adapter Charger

One of the disadvantages of using Apple's adapter is that you can't listen to your music while charging your iPhone. That's not the case with this dual Lightning jack from iNassen, which is a little more expensive than the official device and is also available in multiple colors.

Two pack

My Handy Design Lighting to 3.5mm Headphone Jack

If you're in the market for two Lightning-to-3.5mm headphone adapters and want to save some money, this is the pack to get. These look nearly identical to the official version, but for less.

Includes music controls

$27 at Amazon

Lightning-to-3.5mm audio adapters take on various functions. Some products on the market, like Apple's official accessory, are only intended to provide music listening. Others, like the iNassen Lightning Jack Headphone Adapter, also include charging capabilities. Buy the one you need and enjoy using 2.5mm headphones with your iPhone 8 or 8 Plus.
