iphone 5 adapter..

Post by Sarah »

Hello,

Sorry if there has already been a topic on this, i did a quick search but couldnt seem to find much.. anyway, does anyone know if you can get a new cable or an adapater for the iphone 5 so you can plug the phone in?
thinking of getting a new phone this week but its a pretty big deal for me not to be able to plug my phone in and listen to my music on it and i dont have bluetooth...

Thanks, Sarah

Apples 30pin to lightling adaptor should do the trick.

But be aware that you may not get full iPod functionality with these new iphone 5 adapters. This applies to the iphone 5 and many other audio devices not just the Roc.

I looked at some of the reviews on the apple website and found the same thing out, for £35 its a rip off!! but thats apple i guess... gonna test out a knock off one from ebay and see if it works, if not ill have to figure out something else I guess, fingers crossed!

I've been using this adapter for a month or so now in conjunction with the standard MDI to iPod lead.

It's a bit of a tight fit to get the cable plus iPhone 5 in to the armrest but it seems to work just fine, so far I haven't found any differences between the new phone with the adapter and the old phone without.

Have one of the official apple ones with my MDI kit - works perfectly (would hope so for the price though really!)
