Apple wired headphones lightning update#
Until recently, I was using an iPhone SE (the first one) with wired earphones - usually Sony stereo headphones for smartphones (several different models that feature in-line mic and button control) and the Spotify app on iPhone - I generally had no issues.ĭue to the iPhone SE getting old (battery life diminished and proximity sensor stopped working) I decided to update to one of the newer iPhones - I went for the iPhone 13 mini. One of the main uses for my iPhone is listening to music while outside.
