If you have an iPhone and you care about its audio quality there are some DAC dongles, see also https://www.whathifi.com/advice/how-to-play-hi-res-music-your-iphone-0 https://www.whathifi.com/advice/how-to-play-hi-res-music-you... Quoting the article: "Next, you need a decent DAC such as the Audioquest DragonFly Cobalt, Cyrus soundKey or Chord Mojo 2 and a good pair of headphones, such as the Grado SR325x, Shure Aonic 3 or Austrian Audio Hi-X55. This is just a starting point, of course. Don’t be afraid to build up to a more revealing system. You could combine the Chord Hugo 2 DAC with a pair of Beyerdynamic T1 (3rd Generation) headphones for a more premium set-up. That might be a touch overkill and punishingly transparent for an iPhone, but these are hi-res files, after all."

Oh I don't particularly care about audio quality from the iPhone, most of the time I'm using it in a noisy environment. I've a decent pair of proper headphones but there's no way I'd wear them in public. More to the point I don't want dongles for my phone either. These are all solutions for Apple cheapening the product.

The Audioquest DragonFly Cobalt is not very good: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/audioquest-dragonfly-cobalt-review-portable-headphone-adapter.23015/ https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/a... The Apple USB-C dongle is better: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-apple-vs-google-usb-c-headphone-adapters.5541/ https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/r...
