Apple’s Lightning to 3.5mm Adapter Potentially Discontinued Amid USB-C Shift

With USB-C as the iPhone’s new standard, Apple’s Lightning to 3.5mm headphone adapter is reportedly no longer available in many regions.

Apple's Lightning to 3.5mm headphone adapter appears to be heading into retirement. The once-essential accessory, introduced alongside the iPhone 7 in 2016, is now sold out on Apple's US online store and in numerous other countries.
