iphone6 headphone jack won't fit

Hello, I have a brand new (1 week old) iPhone 6S that I received after using my Apple Care. It's great, except that I have never been able to fit headphones into the port. The jack goes in 2/3 of the way, but no further. As this is a brand new phone, and this feature has never functioned, I do not want to force anything into the port. Thank you in advance for your help in this matter.

Hello charzan,


Thanks for that info and choosing the Apple Support Communities. If I understand correctly, you are unable to plug in headphones into the headphone jack on the bottom of your iPhone. To help resolve this issue, please follow these steps from this resource, and then contact your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for further help with your headphone jack.

  1. Check for debris in the headphone port on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
  2. Check your headphone cable, connector, remote, and earbuds for damage, like wear or breakage.
  3. Look for debris on the meshes in each earbud. To remove debris, gently brush all openings with a small, soft-bristled brush that's clean and dry.
  4. Firmly plug your headphones back in. If your iOS device has a case, remove the case to get a firm connection.
