Product Description
Belkin's new Headphone Adapter for iPhone uses a specially shaped headphone plug that fits in iPhone's recessed headphone port. The Headphone Adapter thereby enables virtually any pair of pre-iPhone headphones or earphones to work with iPhone's uniquely-shaped top surface -- for users of premium earphones, a superior alternative to junking your old favorites in favor of replacements. Though its central portion looks like hard plastic, it's actually flexible, and bends with the cables you attach.

 Do NOT Buy This! December 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm sorry. I'm an audio guy by trade. And I'm an iPhone owner. This is absolutely the most ridiculously designed adapter I have ever, EVER seen, especially for an iPhone. How in the world are you supposed to use it?
Yes, you can do what some of the others have suggested and trim the plug on your existing headphones. Just be careful not to injure yourself with the knife and not to cut too deep or you'll be in the wiring.
But look around on Amazon and eBay. There are dozens of these adapters that have cables attached, some with right angle plugs, that will work much, MUCH better than this thing. I just can't believe this went through R&D, committee approval meetings, etc. No one must have owned an iPhone back then when this was thought up and created!
Anyway, do NOT even think of getting this. Try this the fitz headphone adapter - Black instead.
Coda's Review September 5, 2008
The adapter not connect well, so the sound comes from iPhone for only one channel.
 Great price for an iPhone necessity July 10, 2008
This product is so expensive everywhere else (My room mate paid double what I paid). Amazon has the best prices on iPhone accessories.

The first thing I did was laugh, that was just too funny.
I was about to buy an item on eBay, but before doing so I headed to my trusty Amazon to check for reviews, as I always do.
Anyway, thanks to Ben's uploaded pic... I am STAYING AWAY.
Just look at that thing! It's like attaching a pen to your iPhone, and it's retro motorola cellphone gray colored, to top it off!
Thanks again Amazon peeps for uploading pics, and helping me run away from this purchase.
I was trying to purchase a branded adapter, but I guess I have no choice but to buy the black iphone adapters from ebay for $3.00

It works, sort of. March 1, 2008

This adapter does work. However, notice that it only has 3 contacts instead of 4 like the iphone headset has. After you use this adapter, when you unplug it, the microphone on your iphone will be disabled. You will not be able to talk to people on the phone. If you reboot the iphone, everything will be fine - until you use the adapter again. Buy an adapter with 4 contacts. Walmart sells an adapter set (with 5 different pieces) by Schosche for about $10. It is much better.
