I have a question about my new IPad…

Unlike my old one, it doesn’t have a port to plug in a headset. That’s their thing now, they want people to use Bluetooth headsets. If you use new Apple products and have such a headset, I’d love a recommendation for one.

If you don’t use or like Apple products, you don’t have to weigh in here. 😉

It’s possible I won’t get many replies, but I thought I’d give it a go. 🙂

I don't know much about ipads. But most of the new Intel laptops only have a pair of USB C ports. And so there's a great market in USB C 'hubs' or 'docking stations' (those are the main names).

google for "USB C hub 6 in 1" or similar. If you have a Microcenter in your area, they might be able to let you test a hub. The hubs tend to have a headphone jack plus slots for camera SD cards, plus USB-A ports and HDMI ports.

P.S.: I don't know if an ipad can accept external monitors and/or mice & keyboards.

@ElwoodBlues This!

I have a USB hub myself which has multiple USB type adapters. Must say that mine doesn't have a headphone jack, yet I wouldn't doubt they come with one. Mine does have the micro SD card slot.

Motorola as well uses USB type C.

Another option is Bluetooth speakers and headphones of course.

I do have a 808 CANZ Bluetooth speaker that would work just fine on any Apple devices.
