Collection: Headphone Adapters & Cables

Start with the port on your phone. A phone without a headphone jack sends sound through its charging port, so a 3.5mm plug needs an adapter. For a USB-C phone, such as a Samsung, a Xiaomi or the iPhone 17, the Apple USB-C to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter connects wired headphones, a speaker or a car's AUX cable, and the OnePlus Type-C to 3.5mm adapter does the same job. For an iPhone with a Lightning port, such as the iPhone 7 or the iPhone 13, the match is the Apple Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter.

One port can do two jobs. A 2-in-1 adapter adds a charging port next to the 3.5mm jack, so the phone keeps charging through a long call, a drive or a game. The UGREEN USB C to USB C Female 3.5mm Audio Adapter has an aluminium alloy body, the Momax One Link 2 in 1 combines a Type-C to 3.5mm headphone adapter with a charging cable, and the Baseus L60 is a 2-in-1 Type-C to 3.5mm AUX adapter. The Porodo 2 in 1 Type-C to 3.5mm adapter charges at 2A and has a finger grip, the Momax One Link HT2 is a 3-in-1 Type-C audio adapter with PD charging, and the Porodo Dual Adapter Lightning Splitter splits one Lightning port in two on iPhones with a Lightning port.

For two 3.5mm devices on one phone, the UGREEN USB C to Dual 3.5mm Jack Audio Cable Adapter gives a single USB-C port two 3.5mm jacks. In the car, plug the adapter into the phone and the car's AUX cable into the adapter's 3.5mm jack. Earphones with their own USB-C plug, such as Apple EarPods (USB-C), need no adapter at all, and our wired headphones page lists them.

Wireless earbuds charge instead of plugging in. The Apple MagSafe Charger charges AirPods with a wireless charging case, snaps magnetically onto the iPhone 12 and later, and charges supported iPhones at up to 25W. Charging cables for USB-C and Lightning phones are on our phone cables page.
