(Apple charges a licensing fee for anything that plugs in the Lightning port and officially blesses it with its MiFi certification - "Made for iPhone/iPod/iPad.") And a standard dongle would mean you can't charge the phone and listen to wired headphones or speakers simultaneously.īut the good news is there will be plenty of other companies that offer cheaper solutions, although some of those cheap solutions won't be certified. Needless to say, people will be angry if Apple charges $20 or $30 for a Lightning to 3.5mm dongle, which is quite possible. I'm betting on the Lightning EarPods (though I wouldn't hold out hope for noise-canceling models in the box). The big question is whether Apple will include the adapter with the iPhone 7 (and iPhone 7 Plus), a set of wireless EarPods (rumor has it they'll be called AirPods), or a set of Lightning EarPods that may include a noise-canceling feature. (The iPhone won't be first here: The new Moto Z and Moto Z Force phones have no headphone jack, and ship with a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter.) You'll just need a short Lightning to 3.5mm jack adapter, which will add a couple of inches to your headphone cord. But if you're someone who's anti-Bluetooth and want to stick with you standard corded headphone, the Lightning port is where you'll plug in. More headphone makers are touting a quick-charge option, where charging the headphone for 10 minutes gives you an hour of juice.

The one big complaint about Bluetooth headphones is that they're powered and require charging.
