It was a long time coming but Apple has officially announced it will be doing away with the earphone jack on its iDevices.<\/p>\n

That means all of your expensive headphones\/earphones that have a 3.5mm adapter are now unusable with iPhone 7.<\/p>\n

It also means that you can’t listen to music and charge your phone at the same time (even if you have the correct adapter) as they both use the Lightning port.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, Belkin plan to release a special dongle that lets you attach a pair of Lightning connector headphones and a charging cable at the same time, reports Gizmodo<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“Available starting October 10 for $40 (R570), the adapter also works with Apple\u2019s Lightning to 3.5-millimeter headphone adapter if you haven\u2019t upgraded your headphones yet.”<\/p>\n
