So yesterday we took a look at a USB adapter for HTC cellphones, and it’s a good product but I found it lacking one thing, a standard 3.5MM jack for headphones. USBFever carries many products, and they sent me over another HTC USB adapter, this one is similar to the one I reviewed yesterday, but it includes the 3.5mm audio jack, along with the mini-USB audio jack and the standard sync/charge mini-UBS port. It’s aptly named the 3-in-1 USB Adapter for HTC Phones, so if you’ve got an HTC phone as I do you might be interested in this product, so read one to learn more…

Unboxing
The 3-in-1 USB Adapter for HTC Phones comes in a small clear plastic box, there is a paper insert with basic specs listed.
The adapter is basically a small rectangular box with a short cord coming out of it ending with a mini-USB connector.
The three ports are a 3.5mm audio jack, mini-USB audio jack and the standard mini-USB jack for charging or syncing your phone.
Installation, Testing and Comparison:
There’s nothing to installation, it’s truly plug and play, just plug the adapter into your phone and then plug your stuff into it, that’s it, nothing much more to it.
The only complaint I could have is that it is a bit large, I wouldn’t want it hanging off my phone, but then again most people will have it sitting on their desk really while in use.
It seems well made, it’s hard plastic, and feels as though it should last for quite a while.
Essentially this product improves upon the functionality of the one I reviewed yesterday and make it more useful and more universal.
Summary and Comments:
Coming in at about $15 shipped the 3-in-1 USB Adapter for HTC Phones is a great little product for those of use that like to use our phone as our music players, the included 3.5mm jack makes it all the more worthwhile really since then you can use any set of headphones with your phone.
