Hi Andrew, When you say "normal earphones" do you mean Apple Earpods or a third-party headset? The hole in the Lifeproof case is quite narrow, but it is wide enough for the Apple Earpods to plug in, most other headsets don't work because the plug is too thick. I think Lifeproof should have made their hole large enough for any headset to work, not sure why they decided to only make it big enough for Apple headsets to work which do have a very skinny and tiny connector.

However, even though I'm using a normal sized earfhone plug, I can't get the earphones to plug in properly with the life proof case on. Is there something I'm missing or do I need the special cable to plug earphones in? Kind regards Andrew. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
