PLEXTONE GS1 Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Adapter with 30W PD Fast Charging

The PLEXTONE GS1 is a compact 2-in-1 Lightning adapter designed for users who want to use 3.5mm wired headphones or gaming earphones while charging their compatible iPhone or Lightning device at the same time.

Instead of choosing between listening through wired audio and charging your phone, the GS1 provides a dedicated 3.5mm audio connection and Lightning charging port in one compact adapter. It is especially useful for mobile gaming, music, video streaming and long calls where you may want both wired audio and additional battery power.

The adapter supports up to 30W PD fast charging, making it suitable for compatible fast-charging setups. The actual charging speed will depend on your iPhone or other Lightning device, charger and charging cable.

Its lightweight construction, short braided cable and compact design make it easy to carry and convenient to use with a gaming or everyday mobile setup.

Charge Your iPhone While Using Wired Headphones

The PLEXTONE GS1 is useful when your Lightning iPhone has no convenient way to connect a traditional 3.5mm headset while charging.

Connect the GS1 to your Lightning port, plug your 3.5mm headphones or gaming earphones into the audio port, and connect your Lightning charging cable to the charging port. You can then continue listening while charging your device.

This is particularly convenient during longer gaming sessions, road trips, flights, video watching and extended calls.

A Practical Adapter for Mobile Gaming

For mobile gamers who use wired earphones or a 3.5mm gaming headset, the GS1 provides a simple way to keep the device charged without disconnecting the audio connection.

A wired audio connection is also useful for players who prefer not to depend on Bluetooth headphones during gaming.

The adapter can be used for games such as PUBG Mobile and other titles where continuous audio and voice communication are important.

Up to 30W PD Fast Charging

The PLEXTONE GS1 supports up to 30W Power Delivery (PD) charging according to the listed product specifications.

However, 30W should be understood as the adapter's maximum advertised charging capability, not a guarantee that every iPhone will charge at 30W. The actual charging rate is controlled by the connected device and depends on the charger, cable and supported charging protocol.

For the best results, use a compatible PD charger and a suitable Lightning charging cable.

3.5mm Wired Audio Support

The built-in 3.5mm female audio port allows you to connect compatible wired headphones, earphones and gaming headsets.

This makes the GS1 useful for customers who already own a good 3.5mm headset and want to continue using it with a Lightning iPhone instead of replacing it with a wireless headset.

Compact and Lightweight Design

The GS1 uses a short cable design that keeps the adapter relatively close to your phone rather than leaving a long cable hanging from the device.

Its braided outer construction is designed for everyday handling, while the compact size makes it easy to keep in a pocket, backpack, gaming bag or phone-accessory pouch.

The adapter is listed with a lightweight construction and TPE/ABS components with a nylon-woven cable.

Magnetic Design

The PLEXTONE GS1 features a magnetic design intended to help keep the adapter positioned against the back of the phone during use.

This can be useful while gaming because it helps keep the short adapter and its cables closer to the device instead of moving freely.

The PLEXTONE GS1 is designed for Lightning-equipped devices.

Commonly listed compatible devices include:

• iPhone 8

• iPhone 8 Plus

• iPhone X

• iPhone XR

• iPhone XS / XS Max

• iPhone 11 series

Important Compatibility Note

PLEXTONE GS1 is a Lightning adapter. It is not a USB-C adapter.

It is therefore not intended for newer USB-C-only devices. If your phone or tablet uses USB-C, you need a USB-C audio and charging adapter instead.

Why Choose a 2-in-1 Adapter?

A normal Lightning-to-3.5mm adapter gives you an audio connection, but it does not necessarily solve the problem of charging at the same time.

The PLEXTONE GS1 combines audio and charging functionality in one adapter, making it more practical for situations where your phone needs power while you continue using wired audio.

Whether you are playing a long gaming session, watching a movie or listening to music, you can keep your headphones connected while charging your device.
