I want to use this with my hands-free headphones/microphone. Does this adapter work for talking on the phone? Or do only headphones work on it?

theres a mic built in to the clip along with a send/end button for answering ending incoming calls.

This is a headset adapter. It allows the new standard size plugs to work with an older version plug. It is used for talking on phone and just listening to music. Hope this helps!

Its a great product. However keep in mind that it will only work for music. It will not work as a hands free. It works with my s3 and my wifes iphone 5s. Its a generic Bluetooth connection I think it will work with any bluetooth capable device.

I don't understand your question. You don't need the adapter to use headphones with you iphone or computer. This device is only needed to extend the headphones cable by 1". This deivice works well with an iPhone battery case that has an opening large enough forgot this device to fit. Unfortunately this device did not fit through the battery case opening for the case I have.

The adapter has a low power output. The head phones need to be internally powered. I set this up for my father, who is also hard of hearing, and ran into a stereo receiver near where sits. He can control the volume as he pleases and could use headphones if he wants. He is very happy with the setup. If you decide to get it, do not forget the optical (fiber) cable. Hope this helps. Joe.

I bought this adapter so my microphone would transmit, or be heard on both the left and the right channels simultaneously, so I will say that it should do what you need. However, by doing so I lost some of the sound's volume so people at the other end do not hear me as clearly as if I had a stereo microphone.

I don't know, I'm only using it to switch between audio lines--I'm not sure its equipped to handle a microphone portion of a smartphone headset. Never tried that, sorry.

This adapter is to be connected to the audio output only. It will not work with a microphone. I use my adapter to connect 2 computers to one amplifier. Works great!

It does work with hands-free/Bluetooth devices. I use mine with an LG HBM ear piece while I'm driving.

They work with any headphone/mic combo, if its not working for you, my guess would be that the adaptor is damaged or not inserted properly

I don't think it would work w both speakerphone and headphones. The whole point of headphones is so only you can hear other end of convo...I hope this makes sense and helps!

This adapter allows a headset with microphone with 3.5mm jack to be plugged into a USB port. Not the other way around.

If I do not buy the bluetooth adapter, can this still work as a hands free device if I have my phone physically plugged into the 3.5mm jack?

Good question. I only use it attached to phone. There are additional imputs in the base - one for PC(usb) that might work Why do you not contact sennheiser or Headsets CS at 800 432 3738 and ask them.

The microphone on your headset WILL NOT work through this adapter, though sound will come to both earpieces.

Yes it should! It works universally with headphone jacks and the mic works as long as your phone is able to have headphones with mics!

I have used it with a smartphone, but I had a separate set of headphones connected using an adapter. The adapter I used is a "headset-buddy" which is sold here on Amazon, but it's rather pricey, and I have since found similar adapters at a much lower price. Now, I don't bother with this mic on my cellphone, because I have an inexpensive headset with detachable mic that works well for this -- and for my PC.My use for this mic is as a remote microphone for my Canon T4i, and it works extremely well for that purpose.

My son used this to connect his bose headphones to his iPhone and other devices so he can talk hands free. Not sure about other uses. Sorry
