News: The Best Accessories to Buy for Your Headphones Jack-Less iPhone 7
Apple caught a lot of flak for removing the headphone jack in their iPhone 7 models, but they definitely got the last laugh when preorders with a delivery date of September 16 sold out within minutes. Headphone jack or not, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are still highly desirable products, and consumers have confirmed this by voting with their wallets.If you decided to take the risk and get an iPhone 7 knowing you'd miss the headphones jack, well, you'll just have to embrace Apple's new wireless world. Luckily, there are Bluetooth devices and adapters to fill your every need—car audio, home stereo, headphones, and more—so you won't even miss that 3.5 mm jack at all.Don't Miss: The iPhone 7's Lack of a Headphone Jack Creates a Big MacBook Problem
Car Audio AccessoriesFor this first section, we'll focus on getting your new iPhone 7 connected to your car wirelessly. If your car already has built-in Bluetooth, that would probably be your best bet—but for everyone else, these Bluetooth adapters have you covered in spades.Nulaxy Bluetooth FM TransmitterIf your car didn't come with an auxiliary headphone jack input, the best way to hook your iPhone 7 up to the stereo without using wires is to grab a Bluetooth receiver that broadcasts your tunes over FM radio. Out of these, our favorite is the Nulaxy Bluetooth FM Transmitter, which lets you control music playback, make and receive calls, and even select your broadcast frequency with its LCD display.Buy Nulaxy Bluetooth FM Transmitter from Amazon (currently $22.99) The Nulaxy Bluetooth FM Transmitter broadcasts directly to your radio.

Out of these types of products, the most highly recommended option is the SoundBot Auxiliary Car Kit. This comes with a small disc that you mount anywhere in your car to serve as an in-call microphone and music playback controller. Attached to this is one wire that has two plugs on the end—one goes into your car's auxiliary input, and the other plugs into an included USB charger.Buy SoundBot Auxiliary Car Kit from Amazon (currently $19.99) SoundBot's Auxiliary Car Kit makes Bluetooth audio a breeze.

From there, you just run a headphone cable over to your car's auxiliary input, then pair your iPhone to start playing some tunes.Buy Bluetrip Auxiliary Car Kit from Amazon (currently $30) The Bluetrip Auxiliary Car Kit is one of the most subtle solutions.

Home Stereo AccessoriesNext up, we'll focus on getting your iPhone paired with your home theater system, stereo, or just a set of speakers. If you're all-in with Apple, you might have an AirPlay solution for this, but otherwise, these adapters will keep the tunes flowing throughout your house by simply adding Bluetooth functionality to your existing setup.Audioengine Premium ReceiverIf you want the absolute top of the line, your best option is the Audioengine Premium Receiver. This small box plugs into your home stereo system with either RCA outputs or a digital/optical audio jack (S/PDIF), and an included antenna extends the range of your iPhone's Bluetooth connection. A 24-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) ensures top-notch sound, and a milled aluminum enclosure makes the box itself a nice piece of hardware.Buy Audioengine Premium Receiver from Amazon (currently $189) The Audioengine Premium Receiver supports optical audio output and high-end sound.

This small box supports mini-jack and RCA output, so it will work with almost any setup, and it even has a cool NFC function that will let your friends with Android devices pair with your stereo in one tap.Buy HomeSpot Bluetooth Adapter from Amazon (currently $19.57) The HomeSpot Bluetooth Adapter hooks your iPhone up to your stereo without breaking the bank. Image via Amazon Logitech Bluetooth AdapterIn the same vein as the HomeSpot box, the Logitech Bluetooth Adapter simply plugs into your stereo, then offers to pair itself with your iPhone for music playback. However, this option sports a more premium build quality, and offers direct RCA output, which should give a slight bump in audio quality over the HomeSpot's mini-jack adapter.Buy Logitech Bluetooth Adapter from Amazon (currently $23.98) The Logitech Bluetooth Adapter is a perfect midrange option for pairing your iPhone with a home stereo system.

Bluetooth HeadphonesNext up, we'll look at some of the best options for wireless Bluetooth headphones. Apple's own AirPods will be a popular choice here, but they're not even out yet. Plus, if you'd rather have a bit more battery life or headphones that aren't so easily lost, the options we'll cover below would be a much better fit.Beats Headphones with Apple's W1 ChipNow that Apple owns Beats headphones, we're starting to see a renewed focus on high-quality wireless audio. In fact, Apple included their special W1 wireless processor in its latest Beats lineup, so audio performance and power efficiency should be similar to what you'd see with AirPods. But the best thing about this option is the variety—you've got three different models to choose from, so if AirPods are too tiny for your tastes, you'll find a perfect fit with Beats.Buy Beats Solo3 Headphones from Apple ($299.95) Buy BeatsX Earphones from Apple ($149.95) (coming soon) Buy PowerBeats3 Wireless Earphones from Apple ($199.95) From left to right: Beats Solo3, BeatsX, and PowerBeats3 headphones.

The wireless headset features a lightweight flexible base that you wear around your neck, which houses an ample battery, call microphone, and buttons to control your music. The earbuds themselves are wired, but retract into the base for easy storage. Then, when you factor in top-notch sound, and battery life that's over three times greater than Apple's AirPods, LG Tone Infinim headphones are a steal at less than $100.Buy LG Tone Infinim from Amazon (currently $99.99) LG Tone Infinim earbuds have 16-hour battery life & top-notch sound. Image via Amazon Cowin E-7 Series HeadphonesIf you're a fan of traditional can-style headphones, the Cowin E-7 Series Headphones offer a great balance of performance and affordability. With active noise cancelling for crystal-clear audio, superb build quality, and ridiculous 30-hour battery life, you'll wonder why you ever used those basic EarPods to begin with.Buy Cowin E-7 Series Headphones from Amazon (currently $69.99) Cowin E-7 Series Headphones offer premium quality at a budget price.

Charging While Listening to MusicIf you absolutely must use wired headphones with your iPhone 7, the included EarPods should do the trick, or you can use the mini-jack-to-Lightning adapter that came with your phone. But either way you go, you won't be able to charge your iPhone 7 while listening to music unless you buy some extra equipment. We've already covered all of the best ways to charge while jamming out, so make sure to check out the following guide for more info on this front.Don't Miss: How to Charge Your iPhone 7 While Listening to Music Image via Belkin Don't Miss: You'll Need New Accessories for the iPhone 7, Even Though It Looks the SameFollow Gadget Hacks on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and YouTube Follow Apple Hacks on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest Follow WonderHowTo on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Google+
