Will iPhone 5 earbuds be compatible with my iPhone 4?

I found some 6$ on Ebay making sure cuz the user said compatible with iPhone 5 5G iPod 5 and Nano 7
Just wanna make sure, probably yes, WHY AM I ASKING THIS
I HAVE NO CLUE
JUST MAKE SURE

Earphones are compatible with any device just because they are for an iPhone does not mean it won't work on a iPod nano or touch, however the volume control and play and pause in the middle will not work in other devices if they are not apple, sound will come out, they work but you can't use those neat features like volume up down

Yes it will work. They would be stupid to change the headphone jack to fit a certain pair of headphones. But I would strongly advise against getting the new Apple headphones. It says that it is shaped to fit your ear and have better sound quality, but it doesn't. I prefer my $10 headphones over their $30 uncomfortable ones.

Yes. All the iOS devices (except the iPhone 2G (in a way. Have the same 3.5mm jack so they would work just fine.

In the case of the iPhone 2G the jack is the same size but it is recessed so the jack can't go down as much as it needs to without the need of an adapter.

  • Why won't my iPhone earbuds work on my iPhone but work fine on a computer? So I have the worst luck with earbuds and it happens to be reoccurring. I have a normal iPhone 5 and I enjoy music but when I listen to my songs only one earbud will work while the other one is dead. I can go on my computer and they will both work so I was wondering why they both won't work on my phone?
  • What's wrong with my earbuds? (iphone 5 headphones)? I was cleaning ear wax out of my iphone headphones (new model earphones) and in doing so i scraped around the mesh where the sound comes out, in particular on the right speaker. Now the right side doesn't work very well, i can only faintly hear sound come out of it. The left side works fine. Are they broken? And can i fix it or do i get new ones?
  • Using iPhone earbuds as both earphones and mic? I want to use Skype on my laptop but my laptop only had webcam but no inbuilt mic. Can I use my iPhone earbuds as both a mic and as earphones? Do I insert it into the headphone or mic input thing? Thanks @Grayson M I meant for using my earbuds for Skype on my laptop. There are 2 inputs, one headphones, the other for the mic. Which one do I plug my earbuds in so that I can use them as earphones and mic?
  • Something shaking in iPhone 5 EarBuds? This is more than the normal bass rattle. There's literally something detached inside the right EarBud and anytime I take a step, move my head, or anything at all, I hear it jingling inside! It's so obnoxious! Is there an easy fix or should I just try to get another pair from the Apple Store?
